We are so blessed to have Josh Allen

[Einstein]

Sometimes I forget how fortunate we are. It’s easy, over time, to become comfortable with something/someone being in your life or on your team.

 

But my goodness, name another QB who could deal with the constant onslaught he saw today. Nonstop blitzes, most of which were never picked up by our own line. Constantly avoiding defenders and avoiding sacks. The list of QB’s not named Allen who could have done what he did today is very very short.

 

And i’ve never ever seen his flip out like a gigantic crybaby like Mahomes did after the game.

[RochesterLifer]

Amen.

[LABILLBACKER]

He's an elite superstar unicorn cyborg. This narrative that our pass protection improved this year is very debatable.

[Mikie2times]

Romo: Pat is frustrated and that’s ok

 

Jim: Thats right Tony

 

 

 

 

 

Jim: GABE DAVIS!!!

It DEFINITELY has. But nobody breaks down protection schemes better than Spags. In 2020 when our Oline was pretty good, certainly above average league wide, we had two really bad games. Both vs KC. I think if he has the horses he finds a way.

I think it has improved greatly.

But they went to pieces after the first quarter today.

Spencer Brown being the only guy you could trust in the second half is a terrifying prospect.

That guy has his business square.

I don't feel like he has as talented a group of players as folks are assuming this year. He's just been that good.

[CLTbills]

Josh was Superman today.
 

His supporting cast HAS to help him. He cannot carry this team to a SB like this.

 

But gosh, you're right. Guy is a DAWG.

[CaptnCoke11]

This was the first game of Brady’s short tenure as OC i thought he failed this offense in some key moments.  Kudos to the D they played a heck of a game.

According to some on here that’s the only way you can show leadership and that you’re a competitor though  🤦‍♂️

It is true, without question. Just not today

[Roundybout]

Perfect microcosm of Allen’s career: an impossible, physics-bending 22-yard completion to Murray, who drops it (yeah he did, come on), and then two major penalties that result in a punt on 4th and 38.

Agreed. The screens simply were not working. He either needed to fake a screen and call a wheel route or quick hitter, or stop calling them altogether.

 You are right on the money.

 

We are so lucky to have Josh - both his talent and personality. 

 

Josh is the perfect QB for the Buffalo Bills.

[Bubba Gump]

I almost threw up when Romo said "Allen just out-Mahomed Mahomes". Josh does his own thing and it is different than Mahomes. You'll never hear "Mahomes just out-Allened Allen". Never.

Agreed. The constant swings/WR screens were ineffective in the 2nd half yet he kept going to the well. The run game was also completely abandoned until late in the 4th even though it was going good previously. He got too hung up on the empty backfield formation and played into Spagnoulo's hands

[Process]

The pick was bad. But on a day where our o line, wrs and offensive coordinator all had there worst games of the season, Josh found a way. 

 

No other QB in the league wins that game today.

That's because when Mahomes runs he looks like a toddler. Only way someone can say you out-Allened Allen

Spags is exceptional.  And Jones covers up other flaws in his pass rush.  It just kills me to see how quickly Josh is knocked off his spot.  I'd just love to see what Josh would look like with a top 10 OL.  It would be devastating.

In fact, they can the join the team if they want.

It wasn't Joe's best game. I hated how many times he called the wr screen that got blown up. I think it worked once in 6 tries.  I'm giving him more time to improve and see what we got. Like to see more Cook and a little less RB by committee. Josh carried today on his back.

[QB Bills]

Most talented QB in the league.

I hated the play selection going into the 2 minute warning. Although Diggs dropped an easy ball, you've got to run the ball there and get it down to the 2 minute warning. I feared a catastrophie giving Mahomes the ball back with 1:50. Thankfully the Gods smiled on the Bils for once

I think the constant screens were an effort to get KC out of blitzing. Not that it mattered, they were getting equally effective pressure on 3 man rushes. Josh had his hands full today. Very little time kept clean and his WRs couldn't get open against single man coverage. And there were like 4 drops mixed in there too.

That 3rd and 9 throw to Murray was ridiculous.

Not even a stretch to say that may be a top 10 play I’ve ever seen.

[Since1981]

17 makes lemonade from lemons, time after time. He smiled during the game too!  YES! HEADSET ON!!!!
 

Nice to see his smile and not Taylor’s (or)

I had not good word to say about not running a single time in that situation.

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

So many insane plays today by Josh (throw to Harty, throw to Murray, TD run). 
 

but the craziest play was his last one. He had a free rusher right in his face and somehow dodged him and scrambled and threw that 2-yarder to

kincaid. I have no idea how he wasn’t sacked there.

And Chris Jones is going to be a HOFer by the time he retires, he’s that good. Nick Bolton is also a beast. They have some very solid pieces on that defense. Plus they know us almost as well as a division rival.

Allen did get help. Cook averaged 5.8 ypc and 141 all purpose yards + a TD. Murray & Ty Johnson also made some nice plays especially in short yardage and the pass game.

TOday the OL disappeared after the 1st quarter. Their defense made better adjustments in the 2nd half and pressured Allen continuously.   Brady also made the mistake of not giving the ball to Cook in the 2nd half.  They should have continued to pound the ball even when they were offered one-on-one matchups because our WRs didn't get the quick separation.

Honestly it's top 5 in Josh's career. I thought he was way out of bounds until my mouth dropped after the replay.  He's not of this world.

That one blew my mind.

What's really crazy is that might have only been the 2nd most amazing play of the game if Kelce's lateral had counted. 🤯

[Warcodered]

I was going to cry when Murray dropped fumbled that pass after everything Josh did to make that play, then the refs basically took it away anyway with those holding calls.

[In Summary]

 

[Dr.Sack]

Dude balled out today under duress pretty much the entire 2nd half.

How bad was it, though? The replay showed he had an open receiver in front of a defender.  Now, Josh never saw the intercepting player lurking to the side and that’s definitely on him. Mahomes , on the other hand tried to complete a pass through Epenesa , who was right in his face. The ball was predictably batted up by AJ, who also came down with the INT. You probably won’t hear much about that play, though.
