ngbills Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Allen is the best player on this team. I don’t blame him for the 7-6 record. If we are being really look at our 7 wins. Go watch the replays if you need to. With Mitch we are minimum 6-7. The D dominated in those wins and the opponents played awful. Honestly I can’t recall a game we have won that was a game that you would say both teams played well. Hence our record in close games.

Not saying I don’t want him but that just is not true this year. He has kept us close but a bad loss does not count any different than a close one. We are 7-6 and our 7 wins were mostly easy ones. 4 players in NFL history have run for 100 yards and passed for 300. I hope we can agree the Bills do not have a strong run game. He cannot rely on another player to take over a game. He’s not Brady or Rodgers, but he’s our entire Offense. The last 2 losses have sucked, but we live and die with his performance. Other QBs have the luxury of a defense respecting the run game. I don’t know who to blame anymore, the O line or the run scheme. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen is a baller. A sure thing. The franchise QB long looked for. Now if the Bills can WIN THOSE LAST 4 GAMES!!! They might still turn it around. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 It should be fairly easy to build a defense that gives up 33 points a game without using high draft picks and free agency allocations. It seems hard to build an offense that scores more than 33 points a game without making a meaningful investment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have expected we need 30 or more to beat them. Early bad play, conservative nonsense cost us. Not on the D or Allen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would be in contention for a top 5 draft pick. I’m thinking number one pick, I mean they can not run or pass block, that’s impossible to over come but Allen dose some how, but I don’t like him taking all those hits. We need a running back bad that can make a guy miss and get some yards. Allen does everything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills run game is bad but not THAT bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I would say probably a 5-6 win team. But you may be right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Threads like this are always so good for finding posters who should be ignored. You know the ones who thinks it's the QBs job to overcome everything around him and always win. It's a TEAM game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKBillFan Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 (edited) Josh was fantastic in the second half today - basically showing everyone what is ceiling is and more. The horrible issue is… we haven’t won a close one so far this year. Every close game has been a loss. Seasons cannot be sustained on that; if we’re on offense at the two minute warning we have to make it count. Yes, there were mitigating circumstances today but we still couldn’t get over the line.

Offense needs to score points in the 1st half but the D gave up 24 points and a lot of yards. I don’t want to accept that a scenario that we needed to score 30, because that seems like a score that guarantees a win, and unreasonable on the road. a win would have been a momentum building turning point, the loss still might.
