78thealltimegreat Posted January 1 Share Posted January 1 Imagine being Josh you have 42 total touchdowns you’ve literally set a few records this year that no QB has and somehow people are wondering what’s wrong with you?

Dude makes this franchise so much fun I may just quit watching the Bills when he retires. Agree 100%. Sure Allen did not play well today but what bugs me is when people take the occasional Allen off game and claim that it's representative of a much bigger problem. And for the record while Allen did not play well he did not come close to "sucking" today. He made the plays in the 2nd half when they were needed and the Bills won to raise their record to 10 - 6. It's like these hyper critics don't watch any other NFL games. If they did they would see that other elite QB's struggled at times this weekend: * Mahomes could only manufacture 1 TD, lost a bad strip sack fumble that led to a Bengal's TD and overthrew a wide open WR on a deep pass. But like Allen Mahomes made the plays needed and got a crucial win. * Last night Goff struggled throwing 2 bad INT's and missing multiple open receivers. But at the end he had the Lions on the cusp of winning the game. * Matt Stafford, QBing the hottest team in the NFC against a bad Giants team threw 2 INT's and only 1 TD. The Rams were lucky to win that game. * Tua threw 2 INT's today and we all saw what that score ended up being. Every week great QB's have rough games. And most of the time these great QB's overcome their poor game to have moments of excellence to steal the win. Allen had one of those today. And if people remember Kelly had a lot of games like that over the Bills SB's run. I'm just amazed how quickly people forget what bad QBing really looks like. During the playoff drought we saw a lot of QB's that truly sucked. Allen has QBed the Bills to 5 straight 10 or more win seasons in a row. And if the Bills can beat Miami it will also be 5 straight playoff appearances and 4 straight division titles. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed Cincy it comes with playing the position but man last week he had 5 incompletions against the Chargers and people where like he’s missing guys what’s wrong? Dude just makes this franchise so much fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chances are we won’t see another one of his caliber for a few decades and I ain’t got that much time left. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Josh doesn't know why people are wondering what's wrong with him then he has little to no chance of winning a ring. Because he has major issues at the moment. Thankfully, I think he realises it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said for those of us that went through the EJ Manuel and Jeff Tuel and Trent Edwards years he makes this franchise a joy to watch when he calls it quits I’m probably done with the bills and watch my wife’s team the cowboys instead at least I know the refs are in their back pocket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before this season I would agree, for the most part, but this year he's been more responsible for struggles than before - especially in the divisional games against the Pats plus the defeat to the Jets. Just now, NoSaint said: imagine possibly being the greatest in the world at what you do and some schlub talking about your major issues. That's the annoying thing. Physically he is the greatest in the world. I'd argue that against anyone trying to say otherwise. But there are too many missed reads and too many bad throws to say that side of the game matches up. Would I change him? No. Has he has issues this seaso? Definitely. In his defence, so has Mahomes and interestingly both have come about after a drop off in production from their number one receiver. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though it could be argued the offense on that day allowed the Broncos to hang around. As they did in Foxborough, albeit the defense also made Mac Jones look like Dan Marino. Then there's the Jets in week one... I'd say the Bills beat themselves in every game they've lost this year excluding the Jags (happy to accept them having one further week in London to adjust was key) and the Eagles (that field goal was ridiculous).

Annoying to think they may lose out on the play offs based on Goodell's experiment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
