I blame the women he is with for this.   Hailee probably talked josh into a session with her therapist who then promoted the Low Positive mindset.   I want this Josh back 

 

The "low positive" thing came during the 2023 offseason after Josh worked with a sports psychologist to mitigate the sugar high moments that caused him to play poorly at the start of big games. I changed my user name to this after the Broncos loss that year. What did come from Hailee is the whole "I'm more than just a football player" mindset.

Can we bench Sgt. Ski?  

He needs more time on the practice squad.

😂😂i love how all of a sudden NOW it's an issue when they've been trying to do this for 2.5 years now

 

i mean, if you saw it coming, you're not even that upset. this is what an ultra conservative ball control offense looks like. now admittedly it's a little unfortunate they installed a bad OC in brady but a good one would have just laughed if they asked him to come here and run this system w Allen

He has lost his Fundamentals. Throwing sidearm way too much. Look at the last game and tell me how many times he ***** his arm but does not throw the ball? 

He has lost confidence in himself. We know he can thread the needle. i am really getting tired of everybody on this board saying we need a #1 WR.  Stop looking at josh at the snap and look at how many people are open down field, even if it is only 7-10 yards downfield. He needs to work on everything. i am afraid no one is going to hold his feet to the fire. Yea, we got shi!!y play calling by the coaches on both sides of the ball. Of Course, WE won't bench him (don't want to see Mitchell in there). but he needs to not watch

 film, he needs to start working on his craft and throw the damn ball. re watch the last 3 games or so and you will see. Also, when we don't run the ball i'm pretty sure Josh feels that he needs to put on his cape and save the day. I would have loved to see him just throw the ball in the dirt or out of bounds, just to get better play calls. He is Way better than this!! Thanks

 

Im very much in the "stop treating Josh Allen like he's Jesus Christ" mindset. But benching him? Jesus Christ!

I think a good analogy to what is going on with the Bills is golf. 
 

the bills want Josh to play a “smart” game. Hit your hybrid off the tee, lay-up, two-putt for some nice pars and a clean round. 
 

josh wants to hit a 330 yard driver, and go for the green in two. He knows he can do it, and it’s more fun to do it.

He knows he can do it. And we know he can do it and when he does it it's beautiful. And much more fun to watch. 

 

There are also times where he can't do it. And it's ugly. Real ugly.

I don't know what's going on, but he seems very gunshy right now. Joe Marino broke down this play from the EZ view, but here is the sideline. Look at how many times he could have hit either Keon or Shakir on this play, but Josh throws the ball away. This could have been 3-4 or better, but instead it was 3-10. He also bailed on a pretty clean pocket.

explosive plays are definitely the way to score and win. Our system is tough to sustain. Have to execute at a super high level.

A Trubisky led Bills team would get demolished by Cleveland. And I'm pretty sure the Jets would pull out a win. I would watch just to see how bad they truly are without Allen. 

 

Pegula would fire McBeane when the stadium is empty and he isn't making money off concession sales. 

Didn’t we see for a little 17 year stretch what it looks like without Allen?!

A holding penalty is essentially a death sentence for a drive. 
 

Just insane that we’re at this point.

Josh hasn't had that fire in years at this point 

 

Not saying it's good or bad.. he's a professional he does most of his rah rah speeches not in front of cameras 

 

But this is a part that he has not shown in a while.. and it would be nice to get it back 

 

But that's on Josh Allen

[billieve420]

With this offense and players around him. Allen is going to need to accept that he is going to need to live in that 5-15 yd range primarily and get it to 3rd/4th short where they can attack teams with either run or pass.

Shout podcast was talking about The Man in the Arena and the Mamba Mentality. 
 

Spoke on MJ, Kobe and how Brady and Manning had that vibe. 
 

Also said Mahomes seems to have it. 
 

Josh, for as great as he is, doesn’t seem to. 
 

First time in my life I’ve thought Josh Allen has a legitimate shortcoming to Patrick Mahomes.  …leadership.

Josh is more of a leadership by example guy 

 

He definitely can get troops riled up .. has shown he can.. he would get me riled up 

 

But he's more lead by example follow My lead.. I work hard I practice hard I train hard.. you follow my lead 

 

He has earned the right like Tom Brady or Peyton Manning to chew into teammates occasionally from the right place... Not scream at somebody's face cuz they dropped the football but you can do it for effort level 

 

he has earned the right to hold players accountable

 

That's the last step to Josh becoming the best ever... Because they won't respect it from a lot of people but they will respect it from Josh

I'm without speech.

We bench Josh Allen then that's the end of the franchise and current regime.

 

Josh Allen will demand a trade.

No free agent wants to come here.

No college player wants to be drafted by us.

Media will have field decades on us.

 

We might as well move the franchise and turn the new stadium into another luxury apartment complex.

Well thank god this is just a drunk post

[BVBILLS]

Can we bench the head coach and his cronies instead? How about a game where Josh runs the entire offense on the field? That would be cool.
