Yeah,  well,  Allen is the main reason this team went 13-3 during the regular season,  despite also playing behind a garbage OL and having an injured throwing elbow for 10 games. 

 

 


Sweet.  13 wins.  Great job guys!  We were supposed to win the whole thing and he came up small when it mattered most.

What qb can bail out the team with no protection? Please JA is not the problem. 


Joe Burrow. Patrick Mahomes

How could anyone in his right mind pin this loss on Allen. Regressed? Our team is soft on defense. They get pushed 5 or 6 yds by backup O -lineman on every running play. The are in different zip codes than receivers on every 3down. Their O-line either gives up pressure on Josh or has crucial holding calls in every series. Perhaps you might want to watch how many plays Josh has serious pressure. The Bengals just didn’t give running lanes.

On Burrow and Mahomes - no more than Josh can. Today wasn’t his day but, in general, they’re all much of a muchness when it comes to a lack of protection. They can make some superb plays, but sometimes they will be rushed or hit.

All of the "Josh Allen has regressed" talk is absolutely ret*rded. He was 2nd in total yards and total TD's this year. Without him we'd be lucky to win 5 games. He IS the offense. Fix the OL and watch how much EVERYTHING changes. 


He also led the league in INTs and fumbles.

We were dominated in all 3 phases today, but this season and franchise has always been about Josh Allen being an elite QB and taking us to the next level. 
 

It is safe to say he regressed this year and today was the nail in the coffin.
 

Sure you can blame the OC, but 10 points at home in a playoff game falls on the QBs shoulders in a MAJOR capacity. 
 

If this board voted on Cinci having 27 points before kickoff, most would have taken it. 
 

I am afraid Allen’s career will be an above average quarterback who shuffles between signs of greatness, signs of mediocrity, and signs of someone with zero offers out of high school. 
 

He is NOT even in the league of Mahomes and Burrow and today solidified that. 
 

He had as many boneheaded turnovers this year as his rookie season.  He led the league in fumbles and INTs.  He scored 10 points at home in a playoff game when he was preseason MVP and this team was preseason Super Bowl favorites. 
 

He regressed. 

I think he just better talent around him

Hes regressed because he’s running for his life back there. He’s sensing pressure before its there because we have NO ONE to block for him. This needs to be addressed like rocky…asap

Not entirely true. He was careless with the football all year. Led the league in red zone turnovers.  But the oline got worse as the season went along and Josh only got worse

Watching the Chiefs yesterday and Bengals today... they make a lot of short passes that turn into big gains. Kelce yesterday and Hurst today were wide open. Josh does not have that kind of offense at his disposal. Chad f'ing Henne took the Chiefs 98 yards to a score. Allen can do that too, but he risks life and limb with every dropback.

His apparent regression is largely due to coaching, with a weak OL a significant contributor. More WR drops don't help, but his super high depth of target is a scheme problem. People keep saying he searches for the deep shot but today he just looked harried and out of sync due to the defense beating our players over and over. I think Daboll was better at this than Dorsey.

Better scheme and play calls would have cut the INTs.

This was a preseason Super Bowl favorite with arguably the most talented roster in the NFL. 
 

Let’s blame everyone but the guy running the show.  Insufferable. 
 

 

You're right if Josh could of stopped the Bengals on defense today we had a shot lol. Ofc Josh had a part in the loss today but you're acting like he is the main reason we lost. Honestly how you come to that conclusion after watching the game today is absurdity at its finest.

And..... Four of those were directly off of his guys' hands and into the other teams. He also had a pick or two while he was getting hammered throwing the ball. The fumbles happen at times because he's running for his life ALL the time. OR some happened because the OL was a complete jailbreak from the snap. He also played through a torn ligament in his elbow. Was he at fault or greedy at times? Absolutely. But he basically has to carry the entire team on his back week in and week out. The talk he has regressed is ret*rded.

Burrow faces Chiefs D. Mahomes gets Bengals D. They aren't on the field at the same time. 

 

All three games came down to the wire.

And the Bills will be watching again.....S.O.B.....

No I like Allen a lot and want him to be great.  Majority of posts on the O line, coaching, scheme, defense, etc. as the reason we lost today.  I think when you score 10 points at home, it HAS to be on the QB.

The blocking issues the Bills had today in the face of Cincy’s scheme should’ve dictated a quicker passing game. For those saying “Mahomes and Burrow”, their offensive play calling creates those options rather hanging the QB out to dry.

Trolls gonna troll, at this point let him. This is his superbowl rightnow, he got what he wanted a Bills loss. It's very disturbing he does this to get his kicks but his life might be that depressing he needs this to feel better about himself.

Burrow has an embarrassment of riches on offense. I love Diggs. But Chase is definitely better. Mixon can be a factor. They get the ball out quick. 

 

Burrow played better lately. But the 2 and 3 spots are always juggling. Mahomes is the clear # 1.

 

 

 

 
It’s not so much about Diggs vs Chase as it is Higgins and Boyd vs Gabe and Mcdummy(?).

 

We haven’t armed Allen like we should. Biggest issue this season was that we all thought Gabe and Knox would take a step forward, and they simply didn’t. It’s Diggs and a bunch of projects. Even KC went out and scooped Juju and Toney, both B grade WRs. We just do nothing.

Josh allen has regressed bc our coaching has failed him......look at mahomes..burrow....those guys are not only surrounded by great weapons everywhere they have offensive minds to scheme to their strengths....this staff is pounding a square peg into a triangle shaped HOLE...is this McDermotts team or is it Josh allens?..if it's Josh Allen's then this teams identity isn't a bend but don't break conservative defense!....this teams identity should be an innovative offense identity....the schemes are broken on both sides of the ball when going by our strengths

This loss has very little to do with Josh Allen, But  everything to do with being out schemed and dominated on both sides of the line ! 

I'd argue Josh ignoring open receivers to force balls into coverage is a little to do with him. He's been doing it all year. It's definitely concerning.

Just seems like the offense never had rhythm all season 

nothing quick unless it was an rpo on a consistent basis


Timing just seemed off 

That’s probably on both Allen and Dorsey

Called it in the off-season..said it was an absolute mistake to give dorsey the keys to the Ferrari when he had 0 driving experience......Defense is 🗑 and will always break in the playoffs..it's outdated..I mean this scheme had 1 claim to fame in the early 2000 bucs for 1 year

OK, balanced take as I’ve been someone who has been critical of Josh this season.

 

I think physically he’s the best QB in the league, bar none. He has it all, the arm strength, the running games, the eye to spot amazing plays when others can’t or wouldn’t be able to do it.
 

However, there is an argument that mentally he’s behind Mahomes and Burrow. If he’s still throwing up before games out of nerves, as was revealed before, that’s not a good sign. I appreciate the other two make bad plays and miss reads, but it seems far less often and not as damaging to their teams.

 

But let’s spin it another way. Burrow has the finest talent at his disposal, as a collective, in at least the AFC. Mahomes has the best play caller in Andy Reid, and an out an out world class TE. They get better protection and better schemes. They play with better players. Part of me would love to see Josh with the Bengals or Chiefs, just for one game, and see what he could do with them. Because, like Rodgers in Green Bay, the expectation is for him to do too much on his own.

 

Today was not his finest hour. This season has not been either, but bear in mind he has been on the injury report since week nine with an elbow issue, plus added an ankle problem at the end of the regular season. Personally, I do not like Josh and Dorsey as a combination, and feel they are too alike. Josh needs a calming influence, not someone of similar character. I think it feels like he’s regressed because the O Line - not great before - and play calling has. In truth, he isn’t much different to the regular season last year.

The 'guy running the show' is either McDermott or Beane.  If you want to go there,  yeah,  I agree,  there's plenty of blame to go around, particularly in terms of their roster priorities. 

 

I've been watching this sh**show for a long damn time now.  It's frustrating,  because they make the same mistakes on offense over and over and over.   They bring in a QB,  give him one or two good supporting pieces,  slap bandaids on the rest and then expect the QB to hold the mess they've created together.   It never works.  Ever.  Then,  when it inevitably underperforms, they stand around wondering what the hell happened,  not understanding that they didn't properly invest in their offense.
