Allen by far the most efficient playoff QB this year and it's not close

 Based on his play in the playoffs this was expected. He completed 77.3% of his passes, averaging 10.3 yards an attempt, 9 TDs  0 INTs, 149 QB Rating, 94.4 QBR with the offense scoring on a TD on 12 of their 16 drives in the postseason and averaging 41.5 points a game.

 

 Seems like it's impossible to lose with offensive numbers like that.

We don't need any more proof that Josh Allen is the best player in the NFL.  What we need are coaches who are worthy of him.  McD needs to work on his game in the off-season as hard as Josh does on his.  Set up game scenarios on Madden and drill constantly until you're comfortable with them.  Then maybe next time, you won't choke away a Lombardi.

My favorite thing that I have been seeing the past week or two is just going on youtube and searching "josh allen".  Naturally you will see a bunch of highlights and shows talking about the wildcard/divisional games.

 

The thing I've been finding more and more is not the ESPN shows talking about Allen but the local radio stations/podcasts/etc. from different teams discussing their QB and asking themselves "do you think (QB X) can get to the level that Josh Allen is at?" and that puts a huge ***** grin on my face.

After two games, Allen was in the Top-5 playoff QB post season performances in the entire history of the SB era.  And of the 5, he's the only one to NOT make the Super Bowl in that season (3 of the other 4 won it).

 

That just goes to show how badly McD and Frazier eff'd up.  Probably cost Allen his Lombardi trophy.  

 

As much as people want to say he will win it next year or whatever, it will be very difficult for Allen to reach that high level again, vs playoff teams.  This was the year. Wasted.

Allen has the highest QB Rating in the playoffs in NFL History at 106.6. Mahomes is second at 105.7. That bodes well that he plays his best football when the games mean the most.  So many others play their worst in those moments.

I'm curious where Mahomes would be without the 2nd half/OT of Bengals. 

2) Circle size is supposed to represent # of plays? How does Jimmy G have such a small circle with 3 games ? 

They don't trust Jimmy G to throw the ball.

Does he get a trophy for that?

No but it sure makes me feel good about the next 5 years.  We have a QB that has now demonstrated that he can play his best when the stakes are highest.  And Allen's best is better then any other QB.
