Just hope he among others on this team improve to help him get there. Which is cool, of course. My response didn't really address that - it was more that I want to see other areas of the team rise to the level he is setting (which I'm sure isn't too controversial). I understand why opposing fans and pundits have Mahomes as the best right now. But it's really just the titles. I think Allen probably has the same success if he had been w/ the Chiefs this whole time. 20 minutes ago, balln said: I don’t think so. He’s not elite accurate in short / quick passing game.

It’s not intermediate. It’s the short / elite accuracy ball placement anticipation passing game I think he’s lacking. consistently going to that part of his game as needed in game as defense gives him is what he fails to do.

If over the next 3 seasons Allen plays EXACTLY as he has the last 3 seasons he will be more then good enough to win a Super Bowl. The key to the Bills wining a Super Bowl is not Allen getting better it is: * elevating the O line from being one of the worst in the NFL to just being average. * redirecting resources away from the D in order to add quality skill players 15 minutes ago, balln said: Yea one game - and the rams sucked.

I look at it as tiers. the 3 of them are in the same tier. Mahomes has had elite talent around him from day one. Can Josh Allen get there? I absolutely believe it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABILLBACKER Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 3 hours ago, PrimeTime101 said: it is not even as much about the time as it is about trusting the line to do their job. When you lose trust... you get happy feet all game. I agree. When guys like Saffold, Quessenberry and Brown get beat immediately, your qb is going to instantly go into happy feet mode. I think this behavior over the last 5 years is a huge result of our poorly rated OL since 2018. It also effects how little we run the ball. Hopefully this is the season guys like McGovern and Torrence can turn things around? Maybe Shell beats out Spencer? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone compete for #2 WR? The competition is huge at #3 Guards, RT, Mic LB. Going to be one of the more fun preseasons to watch.

Although I do get the impression that you're not taking any other factors into consideration and only taking a single factor of just Josh for this issue. It's more that plays part for generally every issue and have to look at the whole thing. Things such as play calling, Oline protection issues, and drop off in WR talent (specifically the slot), elbow injury etc. It's more than just a Josh problem is my point.

He doesn’t see the whole field where all his guys are relative to where the defenders are. Protection issues definitely affect this but it’s also on him. Hopefully this part will be better next season. If it is then turnovers would go down and numbers of 5yds dump offs that goes for 20yds will go up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he perks up in his contract year but I'm not holding my breath. The 4 wrs that intrigue me the most are the "Sh" gang. Shakir & Sherfield should battle for #3. And don't count out the 6-4 Shorter and Shavers. At least 3 of those guys make the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then why is Allen depth of target big for his career? I am not arguing Allen only does quick game. Josh is a brilliant intermediate thrower and a good deep ball thrower. But when he has been at his absolute best there has been a diet of quick game mixed in. It helps move the chains, it helps force the defense to come up and it helps Josh get in rhythm, get completions and get rolling. It all aids the deep game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
