Dillenger4 Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 That throw and catch were absurd! Josh put the ball into a very small window, on a dime, as a laserbeam! Diggs caught it with the CB all over him. That was special. Josh is da man!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahomes arm strength is pretty close to Josh’s. They were even flirting with a throw off to see who could throw it further. So I’d leave Mahomes on this list too. If Allen wasn’t in the league, Mahomes would have the strongest Arm in the NFL right now. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Folks saying “Joe Montana” never watched him play. Great QB but wasn’t even attempting throws like that one. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoMAn Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 That throw was brilliant, but to me, the credit has to be split equally between Josh and Steph. 45 yards on a strait line like a missile (wow!) and Diggs, running and cutting who had to have laser-like concentration to snag that speeding bullet with defenders converging, still gain a couple extra yards, and then quickly have the presence of mind to immediately signal for a timeout! Quite the tandem! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steptide Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 One thing I've noticed these past 4 or 5 weeks is how good the bills have been in the 2 min drill. Despite how bad they looked yesterday, they went right down the field at the end of the 1st half and also the very end of the game to win. Thinking they should just run the 2 min drill all game 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a AAAA rip; Arm, Accuracy, Anticipation, Arrogance One of the best I have ever seen. Besides the actual beauty of the throw, it was very significant as it won us the game before we go into a divisional stretch of games. The thing I am wondering is, how did he make that accurate throw with a painful elbow? Must have hurt like a moth******** 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a AAAA rip; Arm, Accuracy, Anticipation, Arrogance I didn't have sound but apparently Romo said that only about 5 guys in the history of the NFL could make that throw. Who are they? John Elway Aaron Rodgers Dan Marino Steve Young maybe Michael Vick? For an in-game throw with pads on, bodies swirling around you, and a hurt elbow to boot, 59 mph is utterly blazing. Especially after you’ve already thrown it 41 times already and otherwise taken a physical beating. 1 hour ago, Alphadawg7 said: Mahomes arm strength is pretty close to Josh’s.

He is great. No on in league history was able to match Allen in velocity until Malik Willis came along. Allen shattered the Senior bowl record for velocity with 66.1 mph and has been measured at 74 mph in a different setting also. Malik Willis truly has a cannon, though: https://theathletic.com/3116058/2022/02/08/high-upside-traits-is-atlanta-native-malik-willis-the-perfect-pick-for-the-falcons-or-too-risky/ Edited November 25, 2022 by dave mcbride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevestojan Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Still confused by Jim Nantz “how did he get that open?” He was the opposite of open. It was a 1 in a million pass and catch, Jimbo. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralonzo Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 11 hours ago, Straight Hucklebuck said: He’s been off. Another one today that he tried to throw in the ground and it went right to a linebacker. That's not what happened. Cook released and was crossing shallow toward a hole in the zone aligned with a gap in the line. Just as Cook was about to arrive at that hole which is where he should have sat done, he stopped and hopped back the other way. It's actually a major credit to Allen that the ball he threw ended up being not interceptable even though Cook made no play at all on it. That'll get picked 80%+ of the time in the NFL but because of how Allen placed the throw toward where Cook's belt should have been and with the over the top angel, the throw managed to turf before that could happen. I was thinking at the time, that seemed lucky but was actually a great instance of "my guy or nobody." 3 hours ago, Draconator said: Apparently Josh didn't make that throw, or even played in the game That watchband and what it's attached to are going to haunt my fever dreams. 3 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of those throws are his magnificent highlights and others of those same (forced) throws are his crippling turnovers. This is like saying the lights on the Christmas tree are too bright.

Accounting for arc puts velo higher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 I don’t want to start a new thread on this topic but this being an Allen thread, I’d like to throw this idea out there… I think we can all see Josh is struggling a little bit. But what I have witnessed, even during this stretch of blah play, is that Allen looks as good as ever when he’s up against the clock. Maybe a semi-hurry up offense should be in order? Could that bring his and the offenses play in general out of this funk? I’d give it a shot because I personally think it would work. A sense of urgency and they all look a bit better. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
