Mynamemike Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 If he does get fooled he has so many ways to either buy time for someone to get open or he can just skiddaddle out and figure it out later. Plus if it takes a little longer for him to process something he makes up for it by throwing a fastball past the defenders. Him and Mahomes do it better than anyone with their ability to buy time and keep things moving downfield imo. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeviF Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Lol. No. This is lazy analysis in an attempt to retcon a freezing cold take from somewhere around April 2018. Many such cases. 7 4 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 The only criticism I have of Allen's game is his deep ball accuracy. He is much improved but he still has a tendency to overthrow open guys. I don't recall many passes that were too far inside or outside. I also don't recall thinking once last year that Allen was fooled on any play. He had some poor throws as all QBs do. But as far as being fooled by coverage I don't see it. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 I have to think bellichick would be the best barometer of this. He has been fooling young QB’s for decades, and yet Allen surgically obliterated that D twice last year. 3 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPS Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 Seems to be a non-issue, meaning isn't that what all defenses try to do, disguise what the coverage is? The Bills are supposedly very good with this as Belichick has exclaimed. Even Brady could be fooled. It takes years for QBs to figure out what the D is doing, and O-coordinators set up pre-snap movement to try and help their QB decipher the coverage. I'm sure Allen would say he's constantly learning. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabel Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 (edited) I mean maybe he's pointing to the Jacksonville game? But the team as a whole didn't perform well that day. I'd say all QBs get fooled now and then. But I wouldn't say "routinely" for Josh, not based on watching him his entire career and seeing the steady improvements in his game. Also, go watch that half hour chat he had with Chris Simms last week. Lot of great insight on how the dude thinks and sees things out there. Sounds way too informed and intelligent to be a guy who's "routinely" tricked by disguised coverages. Also, I heard Steven Ruiz talking about Josh's mama, therefore the dude is a bum.
