GoBills808 Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 Just now, AZSanta said: No offense taken. I certainly there is potential for him to be better. My main concern with him is his maturity level and mental ability to deal with adversity. He seems to take negative games to heart and maybe feels the pressure of the fans and media bashing his turnovers. You can see it in his demeanor when they lose and his post game press conference. I hope he can grow into a more mature QB with age and experience. He needs a mentor. McDermott aint doing him any favors with his coaching style I think he just needs better skill players on offense and consistently average oline play. That and a decent run threat will pay dividends imo the mindset/emotional aspect is overblown. You can read into a million things differently and come to conclusions 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you just have too much bias the other way. Even posters saying he is elite but not at his best this year makes you go off on some EPA tangent or rant about the offensive line or the WR's. Below is what you feel we should say Josh is at his best. 8 out 11 games this year that is what his stat profile looks like. I'm very optimistic with what we saw last week. He is still one of the best, but your opinion loses validity if you can't view things both ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just in Atlanta Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 If he cuts down the ints in half he’s the best qb in the nfl, even better than Mahomes, which is a tall order. I think he has a lot still to learn too. We haven’t seen his best consistently yet so no … the best is yet to come. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially this year it seems QB's have great games followed up with below average games. There's a reason why there isn't a single QB this year running away with MVP. Every week people are trying to justify giving the award to Hurts who has struggled this year but is on a great team. Or Mahomes who certainly does not have better numbers than Allen this year either. It's certainly not realistic for Allen to have 30 passing TD's and 3 INT's on the season. Just as it is not realistic to say he'll never have great games so throw those three out and just look at his other 8. 9 minutes ago, GoBills808 said: Those stats aren't correct He has 4INTs vs jets I think by (2) he doesn't mean both Jets game, but the second Jets game only. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't take long at all to run the numbers for Mahomes 3 Best games: 9TD's 1 INT, 977 yds (325ypg) 75% completion Other 7 games: 10 TD's 8 INTs, 1642 yds (234 ypg) 64% completion Basically, the same drop off Allen has. I'm guessing this is the case for most all QB's. Only the one's that are probably having elite 115+ passer rating type seasons will probably not see as significant drop offs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as it is not realistic to say he'll never have great games so throw those three out and just look at his other 8. I think by (2) he doesn't mean both Jets game, but the second Jets game only. When Allen doesn't play well we go nowhere. We don't score, we don't win. It's not just sort of bad. Nothing works. It's the exact opposite when he plays well. Everything works. We drop 40 on most teams. We overwhelm teams. Why is it so severe and is that an issue? You could say it's because so much of the offense is built around him. That makes sense. But it's also in the play itself. When Allen is bad, he's awful. Bad picks. Difficulty getting first downs and sustaining any TOP on offense. It all but removes our chance at winning it's so bad. That type of play is occurring too much this season. Even if the overall numbers look good which as usual are being elevated by the ridiculously above average games. Everybody loves the Mahomes comparison this year who clearly isn't having a great year and nobody would say for a second that he is. So then they use that logic to justify Josh not having a great year and how all QB play is down. But what about the Purdy, Tagovailoa, Wilson, Prescott, Cousins, on it goes. Players in the top 10 in QBR this year who are not having nearly the rate of games this year so bad that winning is all but lost. Sure all QB's have them. They just don't have them at these rates. This thread is now hijacked and that is not my intention. But to get back to the point of the thread. To think that Josh can't grow more by reducing the variance is not just a decent questions. It's obvious. We have also seen this for a long time now. So to ask if it will ever change is not insulting it's logical. The high's and lows are too big and the playoffs require some degree of steadiness for multiple games. We will never survive this type of rollercoaster. In 19 career losses Mahomes has 92.4 rating, in 22 losses Burrow has a 83.4 rating. In 30 career losses Allen has a 73.2 rating. 6 minutes ago, Sammy Watkins' Rib said: Exactly.

As I said I believe we can win a Super Bowl with him as is. I ' think we will see Drew Brees or Tom Brady level of excellence from him. I'm okay with it. I said i believe we can win a Super Bowl with him. I don't see him going to another level like Brees, Brady, Mahommes, and Manning. He is as good as those guys. What did he show in his 3rd, 4th and 5th years to say other wise? I think he is more than capable of that. He's very similar to Mahomes only with a Favre type edge to him. And even if he doesn't have 50 TDs and multiple 5000 yard passing seasons, why does that matter? If he had 4500 yard seasons every year, over 40 TDs a year, who cares?
