Josh and INTs

[eball]

I’m glad everyone is worried about Josh and an offense putting up 30+ every game and 450 yards of offense.

Josh Allen is throwing the ball A LOT. He currently leads the NFL in passing attempts with 99.

Imagine if we took the Harbaugh approach and didn’t pull him in garbage time to pad his stats 🤪

ever since brady took over, or totals in production have been quite similar to the totals we had with dabol and dorsey, but the variance has plummeted, and we have a viable run game.

 

the 22 season when josh's shenanigans took his head out of the game vs cinci, and we had absolute stiffs like roger staffold rounding out the bases on his way to retirement at, we lost 3 regular season games by a total of 8 or so points in ridiculous fashion (a one pointer where we out gained maimi by like 200 yards, the total multiple melt down game at home vs minni with the fumbled qb sneak and all time catch by jj on 4th and forever, and i think to the jests who were in tough that year, we woulda lost to cinci as well).  before losing von to injury (and other guys too) that team was a monster, with cook at rb, von and them at DL, and a healthy all pro milano, but that team just never felt like they had the chops to put together a script to win, and needed hines of all people to save us at the end of the season vs NE after hamlin incident.

 

i have trouble with brady for his small ball tendencies, but the net of it is we have consistent mistake free insane offensive production on the offensive side of the ball.  our d has faltered in the playoffs, but what looks different to me vs prior years is that while we let up 4 awful drives (one stopped with a great pick at the end) vs the fish, they mostly got smashed and their overall numbers were pretty weak last night.  after getting smoked by balti all day, we got stops when we needed.  jets we dominated but who cares.  in contrast to prior years, it was just always a slow slow death of a thousand cuts and we were even worse on 3rd down that we have looked this season, and so far we are missing like four to six quality players ever time we put our d out (milano, oliver, hoyt, african anabol, rookie corner, someone else who might step up).

 

so that long winded effort poast is to say, our conservative O is what we need right now, and if we didn't miss that cake FG late in the first half we likely just waltz to a 3 score victory where miami is never in position to get close, so i'll take it.

Kinda crazy how we played such a conservative offense yet we scored 31 and left probably at least 7 more on the field. They were a couple bad play calls from busting that game wide open in the first half.

 

They'll open things up when it’s time.

Nah it's dead avg 16th at 33att/gm

 

He just has an extra game on everyone else

Josh Allen would be in a tier by himself if he had 6 rushing TDs, 22 passing TDs, and 1 INT going into Week 8.

You say lack of downfield passing and I say non existent as in they don't have it at all and have yet to see it. What happens when defenses take away the short game? Because by the time playoffs come around that's what the top elite teams will try and do. It has to be incorporated even a little bit and I think Moore would be the perfect guy for it running a 4.35 at his pro day. 

Shavers too.

Yeah, this is the game I saw. Others here must have been watching vhs tapes..

I think there's a happy medium where we can be mindful of turnovers and still let the best QB in the league with likely the strongest arm in NFL history throw the ball further than 10 yards down the field more than once a game.

This is all good for the whole "winning games" thing, but old Josh was much more fun to watch.

Hope that was said tongue-in-cheek.

 

Given a choice between a reckless gunslinger who’s exciting to watch but loses winnable games, or a conservative approach QB that gets the job done consistently, which one do you choose? For me it’s a no-brainer. Big dub all day long. 
Sugar-high Josh who thought he could do it all and made questionable decisions that occasionally led to turnovers has matured into a refined field general.  He now protects the ball and methodically matriculates the team towards the endzone while still putting on the cape with splash plays just enough to still be exciting to watch.

Gabe Davis?

I love Josh not throwing Ints much anymore, and I enjoy his death by a 1000 paper cuts approach. His evolution has been staggering to see.

 

Earlier today I watched these highlights from his rookie season. Look at the way his slings the ball back then. His throwing motion is so different to how he plays now. Its like listening to one of the Beatles early singles after playing Revolver and Sgt Pepper

This is the first season of his career that he’s not even throwing 1-2 POTENTIAL INTs per game.  The prayer throws into the teeth of coverage are GONE.

I forgot Brett Favre.

 

Who was more fun than Brett Favre?

 

His "fun" included throwing playoff games away left and right. I don't want Allen to turn into that.

If there's any throw that you want,

There ain't any throw I can't do,

Just call a 9, and I'm throwing the ball

Real long from me to you.

 

I'll make any throw that I want,

Like a deep post to cover-2,

Just snap it back and I'm throwing the ball

Real long from me to you.

 

I've an arm that is so arrogant

There's no throw I won't try

I've got legs that want to truck you

And leave cleat marks in your thigh

 

Wooo

 

But I'm slinging the ball a lot

With an aim that is not so true

I get picked off cause I'm throwing the ball

Real long from me to who?

To who?

To who?

Didn’t we get rid of him because he can’t run routes to save his life? He’s also injured isnt he?

He is an exceptional deep ball receiver.

[BigAl2526]

I understand the reasoning the more controlled offense Buffalo has been running, but there is also a risk in letting a weaker team like Miami hang around in a close game, especially when that team has a potentially explosive offense.  If Bernard didn't make that interception on Thursday night, the game could have had a very different outcome.
