Josh Allen….detached.

is it me?

The days of Josh, with that burning competitive fire in his eyes…going up and down the bench supporting the D, talking to the O line and talking to receivers seem to be gone. 
After a 4th down, he goes back to the bench, looks at the IPad, and then just sits and watches the Jumbotron quietly.

Meanwhile, Diggs is doing what Stef does, fire burning and supporting others.
There is something that’s changed in him.

In prior seasons fans were demanding we take the "sugar rush" out of Josh.  Given the coaches offseason comments criticizing Allen for running, the new game plan strategy that has neutered Allen's game, it seems likely the "calm" Allen demeanor is a request from the coaches to keep level the whole game.  The next step in improving Allen will be to have him nervously clap after crappy Bills plays. That way we will know he has the proper emotionally state for peak performance.

You all need to stop with this stupid take in this thread and the other one about Josh.  To somehow make up your mind that Josh no longer cares about football after watching a combined 5 seconds of sideline shots during a 3 hour game is complete insanity.  

 

Nobody wants a leader ranting and raving whenever there is a problem.  That stuff gets old real quick.

Really?
Do you see the consistency of the fiery Josh from 2020/21 ? I still see it in Mahomes and others…..

Do you see anything of old Josh where you didn’t have to look at a clip because he was EVERYWHERE on the sideline? 
Undeniably, The dude has something happening between the ears that is different than before, and it’s translated to his game. 

Whatever it is, it is real.

Something COULD be going on with him, but let’s not forget he led the team to two TDs in the last 7 minutes of the game, to get us the lead.  It’s not like he was in some mesmerized trance the whole game.

He’s been in a trance since 2022. Cincinnati ring a bell?

He does seem to be staring off into space a lot during games while on the bench.  It could be absolutely nothing, it could be something, and it could just be that the camera is only showing those moments.  BUT...if we are just going off of what is shown on the TV, he does seem a little spaced out on the bench like he's just some guy waiting for the bus to arrive.
