Can imagine what Cool would have done if the game wasn’t over after three quarters??

Had a shot at the single game rushing record I think he might’ve got it.

The coaches have him scared of throwing picks, I would say

He has to play like he came out in the 2cnd half. 1..2..3 boom 5 yard completion

he could of learned.  After that trade, the Bills offense rocked.  We lose Amari, and Mack, and sign Palmer.  Then added Moore after Beane went on WGR.  Beane could of been proactive, and hooked up Josh.  Instead it takes a couple losses, 2 games of Josh getting battered, Josh stops smiling,  a ***** passing offense...and maybe Beane makes that trade 

Cooper was a zilch …posters are trying to say Beane won’t make a trade because it’ll prove Jeremy White correct 🤣🤣

I think people are really overlooking the past draft. I think Beane might’ve nailed it. Deone Walker, Hawes, Dorian Strong, Maxwell Hairston seem to be solid picks. 

Absolutely. This class looks to be as good as the one that landed Josh, Tremaine and Taron. Maybe close to the Benford, Bernard, Cook and Shakir too.

Is it National Tight Ends' Day? Didn't see it mentioned

I would not gripe if Greg Olsen did all put games.  Love the guy

You are spot on,and its Josh's biggest issue still.

 

Josh doesnt throw with anticipation, he also needs WR to be more open to throw the ball.  He had also bailed on pockets he didnt need to and had guys open he didnt see all season.

 

I agree with both you and @GunnerBill. I think this would still be better if we had that Diggs receiver.  Also not sure this play design really suits what he is special at. Bailing pockets is also part of not trusting that blitz pickup. I dont think he trusts the safety blanket either. Legs were a big part of his game when this stuff happens but thats not working for him this season either. He is hesitant to run. He isnt escaping as good as he used to. Potentially he has lost a step. I also think McD driven some of that early dog he had. I dunno if that is for the good or bad but I can see it.

I don't want people thinking I am making excuses. The criticism is correct. Josh is a star, but I don't think he is ever going to be a precision guy like Tom Brady was. Its just not what makes Josh special.

Absolutely but there is a fine line 

 

I've always been able to live with some Josh Allen turnovers when he's playing with that mentality of im here to score and make plays 

 

You want to be smart but you don't want to be neutralized it's a fine line the bills have to find

😂😂It's hilarious seeing the Allen consternation

 

This is exactly the kind of offense the Bills want to run

It doesn't matter but our running backs other than Cook are bad 

Not necessarily disagreeing big picture, but when the team is playing their RT out of position in an effort to close out the game without anyone getting hurt, it’s a lot to expect for them to actually look competent.
