Cosell – I thought Allen was poised, the game was not too fast for him
‘”Very impressed, what I found very fascinating was their first 18 plays, through their first three possesions, were called passes. Very interesting game plan and I thought Josh was poised, composed, the game was not too fast for him mentally, I liked the kinds of throws they asked him to make. They were short throws, they were timing throws, the kinds of throws that we always talked about that he had to do better in order to become a consistent quarterback. I thought, for the most part, he was pretty accurate, good ball placement. These were throws that demanded pace and touch and he made these kinds of throws. It was interesting and fun to watch.”‘

He finished second in the NFL in rushing yards last year in just his rookie season, with 1,307. He added another 721 receiving for a total of 2,028 yards from scrimmage, the most in the NFL. Last week against the Cowboys, Barkley only touched the ball 17 times, but he totaled 139 yards from scrimmage, including a whopping 10.9 yards per carry, running for 120 on just 11 carries.’
