Addressing the "Josh Allen is TO machine" narrative

Recommended Posts

So here's my response to @Alphadawg7's analysis which was hyper-focused on solely interceptions.

 

We are gonna look at QB's since 2018 (since Josh entered the league) and analyze the TD:TO ratio

 

Aaron Rodgers

4.3 (!)

 

Patrick Mahomes

3.2


Russell Wilson

2.9

 

Tom Brady

2.73

 

Justin Herbert

2.65

 

Jalen Hurts

2.5

 

Deshaun Watson

2.43

 

Joe Burrow

2.27

 

Kirk Cousins

2.24

 

Lamar Jackson

2.23

 

Dak Prescott

2.23

 

Josh Allen

2.18

 

Ryan Tannehill

2.09

 

Matt Stafford

1.79

 

Jared Goff

1.64

 

Matt Ryan

1.64

 

Derek Carr

1.5

 

So what does this tell us?  Josh's counting numbers are elite, but on a TD:TO ratio, he's near the bottom rung of the upper echelon QB's in the NFL today.

 

Now, some of these QB's are trending downward significantly from who or what they were 4-5 years ago, namely Deshaun Watson and Russell Wilson.   But, IMO, this supports the narrative that Josh Allen is almost as much of a TO machine as he is a TD machine.

Doesn't really support the narrative this year that they've been saying it though, when Mahomes this specific year sits at 1.91, Hurts is at 2.07, and Tua is at eeesh 1.57,

Doesn't seem like it or if they are that's a coincidence that the numbers ended up the same.

 

In the playoffs he's 3.17

Josh is at 2.06 which is quite a bit worse than his average over the last 3 seasons.

Right but the narrative is about Josh this year not any of the others but he's only .01 below Hurts who is now the MVP favorite. If they were saying it about all them this year it would make since but they're not, they're hyper focused on Allen who by this metric isn't doing the worst this year not even close.

If that is the comparison you want to see, then go do the work and post a thread on it.  You don't need to hijack another thread and try and get someone else to do the work for you that took the time to talk about something else.

Every time I’ve seen your posts, you seem to rip on Josh.

 

You even somewhat excused the defensive performance on Sunday saying the eagles had a lot of short fields and put a lot of blame on Josh for that one INT. (Even though he was the best player in football that week)

 

So my question to you is:

 

Do you not think he’s a good QB and where do you rank him in terms of QB?

 

I just don’t get where you’re going with this constant crusade on Josh so I’m genuinely curious lol

I think he's at least a top 3 QB and a top 1A/1B QB when he's on his game.
