It was a mixed bag from Allen in his first start, but I walked away from the game feeling more positive about him than negative. Especially since he’s playing behind a putrid offensive line and has poor WR’s. I will continue to watch his development before I pass judgement.
Didn’t he grade out rather well by PPF metrics last week? I didn’t key in on him so much that week, and obviously haven’t seen the all22, but he didn’t strike me as someone who played poorly. He eats up blockers and keeps the LB’ers clean. What’s the big deal here?
See Jets offensive gameplan from Monday night. Copy/paste. Run the ball. Lots of screens, quick slants, curls, back shoulder stuff. Play action. Never hold the ball for more than 2.5 seconds.
If the #7 overall pick is “ruined” by being the starting QB, then he most likely wouldn’t have made it as a franchise signal caller anyway. Let’s drive the Ferrari that we keep in the garage!
This is stupid. No. No, you can’t ruin a rookie QB by starting him right away. Josh will have his peaks and valleys this season, but there is no substitute for “being behind the wheel” as McCoach puts it. I think he’ll be fine. He seems like a kid who is confident and also mentally tough.
