WideNine Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 (edited) ratio smatio 😁 Your not an Allen hater if you see trends from your OB that are hurting the team - just someone who looks at negative trends and perhaps want to dive into why that is happening rather than close your eyes and accept on blind faith it will just trend back into something better without any changes. For me, the turnovers I had issues with were more about the turn-downs on the easy dumps and completions that would move the chains. Instead, Allen was forcing the ball downfield to well-covered receivers and tighter windows. It resulted in more INTs, Allen holding the ball longer, and our star QB taking shots from defenders rather than getting the ball out of his hands more quickly. Also, the trends from later last season and the first half of this season made me wonder if he understood the play designs Dorsey was scheming up, if receivers were running the right routes, were we leaning into our run game enough to tap the brakes on pass rushers, and if Allen really knew where his reads & outlets were. There was also enough confusion on plays that it pointed to an offense that was not being designed, communicated, and understood very well from the top down. I think we have seen better results and more balanced play from Allen since the org moved on from Dorsey. Now we see Allen doing what he does very well, and also taking the quick wins that lead to more RAC, and the offense being able to move the chains and sustain drives which gives our defense some time to catch their breath. Remember only a season or so ago we actually went through a few games without punting? Between the second half of last season and the first half of this season not only were the turnovers trending up, but also the offensive 3 and outs and the need to punt more.

Royale with Cheese Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Allen has been exceptional under Brady. McDermott let him down in Philly. I have no worry about our offense. It's good enough to go 5-0. I worry about 4th quarter McDermott defense. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gobills404 Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 (edited) Time to hyperfixate on one Josh Allen play and ignore the fact that our WRs and TEs have been absolute no shows all game. Josh buying them 5 seconds and they still can’t get open. You can’t expect Josh to check it down or throw it away every play.

I expect Josh to not throw horrific picks when he doesn’t have to up 14-0 in a must win game. I don’t mind if you don’t. But that’s my expectation 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills 0 points off turnovers. chiefs? They butt rape our defense for a TD on the lone turnover. It is acceptable for the defense to hold to a FG. It’s not like the Chiefs got the ball inside the 30 yard line. then again I am arguing with a person that thinks 96 is close to 210 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are basically the same thing when it comes to a persons psychology. He won't do it so just get used to it or complain that they need to move on from him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should be acceptable to not turn the ball over (for the 9th game in a row)when our defense has shut them down until the turnover. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He leads the league in turnovers and TD’s. the poster I am arguing with thinks he turns the ball over almost as much as he scores? Yep. He thinks 96 turnovers is close to 210 TD’s.
