Jauronimo Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 12 minutes ago, jkeerie said: First off...I'm not making what Josh said up. He did mention learning how to flip some throws like Aaron Rodgers does...adding to his repertoire. I listened to the presser on Bills tonight late last night and heard his explanation. He did sort of flip that throw, though, such that even if the defender wasn't there it would have been nowhere near Knox. He didn't get anything on that throw. Do you think the throwing motion was the cause for the INT? Had Allen seen Gardener do you think he still "flips it" like Aaron Rodgers does or perhaps he avoids the throw all together? Nowhere near knox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low Positive Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 This whole thing reminds me of that Sabres ECF against Carolina when D-men were dropping like flies. I remember reading on SabresFans about Jay McKee having contracted a staph infection from his sweaty shinguards and thinking that was an absurd troll job. Turned out to be true. Sometimes when it rains it pours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stand corrected after hearing Josh's presser that he didn't see the defender and that was the primary reason for the INT, but if you listen to that presser, Josh also said he "floated" the ball towards Knox. (If it had reached Knox, it would have been a low catch even looking at this video.) On the second INT, he said it was a brain fart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg S Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 (edited) We couldn't win a Super Bowl without Josh but we can win regular season games with Case. He is a vet QB who can play. This could benefit the Bills. They will have to run the ball more and have a more conservative game plan to help Case. Maybe playing that way will help them with the turnover issues they have been having. If Case has to play for a week or two then that wouldn't be the worst thing. Just no long-term injury.

Yea … if this is an injury that requires 2-4 weeks to heal, and we’re resting dudes left and right anytime they’re below 95%, then we better rest Allen.

Maybe not having the full power on the downfield stuff will make him attempt a “B game” I know when my back is bothering me or I’m not feeling great and I’m bowling, it makes me hyper focus on fundamentals.

It is actually amazing to me how bad your takes consistently are, amongst the worst on the board just about every week all year long. Even in the LIVE BROADCAST the announcers said they didn't think Josh could see the defender because his view was blocked. Josh takes full accountability at all times, he is not going to say what ever he wants to say. He has always told it like it is and was the FIRST person to take the blame every time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My concern with these injuries is always Tommy John surgery. My understanding is that it takes possibly 18 months to recover. I don't want to put my mind there yet but I can't help but worry. If Allen is out for let's say 4-6 weeks that ends any conversation of the #1 seed but at least we could probably sneak into the playoffs and see what happens from there. Based on some of the cryptic things being put out there by people I follow and trust I would honestly take that outcome at this point if I could.

Steptide Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Obviously we don't know yet, but I find it really hard to believe Allen is THAT injured.
