Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 It's the QB. Sacred cow around here, I know, but Josh Allen has been in the league long enough to know: 1) you can't be late over the middle 2) you shouldn't throw into triple coverage 3) that sometimes a sack and punting the ball away isn't a bad thing. And yet he continues to make those mistakes. Tell me, at what point should the finger of responsibility be pointed at the QB who just crapped his pants on national TV? You can lead a horse to water, but if it does not drink, it's on the horse. 10 3 12 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we'll have to crank up the Excuse Generator and establish some kind of down year narrative. I'll start: It's really hard to tell the Jets players and Bills players apart!

I disagree that there wasn't plays called from under center. It's one of the ways we telegraph we're running. We ran a few plays from under center. Pretty sure all were runs.

Hire Jim Schwartz and let him install a blitzing killer Defense and I think we would be better off. I love Sean, but I can't thank him enough for what he has done, and he 100% was the right guy to right this Titanic franchise version. BUT, if you keep Allen as your QB you gotta have a very strong personality that keeps his butt on target. McDermott and Definitely Dorsey isn't that. 2 6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radar Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Josh is very talented. Josh isn't stupid. I do think he tries to force things and do to much. Why? Probably some is just in his DNA but coaching is also questionable. Our coaching seems very average at best. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colin Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 As soon as we didn't get some 3rd downs (and we were close mind you) doing dink and dunk Josh decided he was just gonna play hero ball. 3 of the 4 turnovers were horrible decisions while not under duress, and he walked into pressure or left clean pockets other times. Dorsey has to figure out how to get the I working best, and he's no where near that yet, but Allen just not throwing those three horrible decision throws means we win walking away 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDIGGZ Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 BECAUSE it's the QB...it's also the coaches! Josh needs to play in structure. Enough of this running around like an idiot doing whatever he wants. He needs a strong and experienced OC. 3 steps and throw it here. No big hits. For every hit he is fined $5,000. He's not learning or getting better. That's the problem 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
