I am OK with the FG, not Ok with the waste TO's heading to 1:44 left with 1 TO and then wasting time. Not OK with Allen throwing to Brown on 3 and 4 downfield with that much time. If you dared that leaving a 53 yard field goal then why not go for 4th and 4. Bet the odds are better you get a 1st down!

Josh's average was 26%, 20% below. Also they considered 21 yards to be a Long ball. Any way you look at this Josh was not a good long ball thrower. Add to that, not complaining about last year, he played what 9-10 games. this year with 9 games he has no in the air passes over 30 yards. He has a 54 yarder ran after the catch by Knox. Give the guy credit for his 6-3 record and 7 4th quarter comebacks, 5 this year. Won't be good enough second half of the season with a tougher schedule.

What was EJ Manuel's record as a starter? New England beat us but was outplayed. Good team beat inferior opponents, even sometimes when outplayed! Tom Brady was not a good QB in college, drafted 6th round. Normally you would never become a starter in the NFL from the 6th round yet alone the best of all time.

Bad is taking it too far, that is EJ Manual or Losman bad. Both could throw long. Josh's problem is he ONLY Gun Slings, even throwing short. Guys drop balls in their hands. Josh has a winning record this year and I believe overall. My only problem with Josh is he is 6-3 now and not ready to be 11-5 or 12-4. More like 9-7 or 10-6 if lucky. Glad some people get it!

Rivers, San Diego and Burr LSU

Just keep Lee off the filed please!

Frank Reich did not work on his long ball in the game. that is when you need it!

River and Burr, LOL! Doesn't include run after the catch.

Tom Brady, best ever!

Without the long ball Reich does not lead Buffalo back against Houston and into a Superbowl eventually.

I am basing that on he has become a 60% passer in less than a year when everyone said he couldn't. He almost ran for 1000 yards last year and hurdled a linebacker. He is tough as nails and ran for 2 TD's Sunday. There is allot going for him but he has a OC that doesn't help him. Josh should be doing play action or West Coast offense. He can't throw 40 yard+ right now. Use his mobility positively and groom his long ball next off season.

He needs to stop throwing 40+ in the air

Should have kept Taylor then, lol! Barkley is said to be the best backup QB in the league. If Josh were a backup would he have that claim?

The way he is throwing them I would be happy if he has Zero long ball attempts the rest of the year. Run 50%, use play action and his legs to spread defenses. Please keep Lee off the field, that is 2 less penalties a game.

Point taken, if Bills finish 9-7 after last year going the way it goes does McDermott survive?

So you call a play on 3rd and 3, typically is made at over 50%, that is a throw away?

EXACTLY!

Mahomes was picked 8th 1st round with Bills pick. We used KC's pick and our own pick to get Josh Allen the following year at 7th, one round earlier. Mahomes won allot of games last year and almost beat Brady. Mahomes can throw all the passes. Allen is no where ready to match up to him but has won allot of games one year later, same point in their careers. Josh is not at the same point as Mahomes was last year at this time. No way the outcomes will be the same!

He can gun sling a ball in when he sees his target, you are not wrong.

I am not arguing he can. I am asking if you think he can the next 7 games. That is all we got this year!

True as far as wins go but Kelly developed those good years throwing 300 yard games and allot of INT's learning. How can Josh learn missing by 10 yards throwing on third and 3 to Beasley? Who is our QB coach?

Losman was pretty good, same with Bledsoe If the coaches would run 30-35 times a game, I would use play action or West Coast offense like with Steve Young Allen was not 6 of 21 in 31+ in the air, he had 3 last year, think all to Foster.

He has Zero this year, missing by 10ft or more on many of them. Throwing them on 3rd and 3. He is throwing them to our slowest receiver in Beasley. I never said I did not like Allen. Just saying he will not be leading us to the playoffs with zero long throws made.

Brees get 5000 yard seasons, 300 yard games are nothing to him. Can't believe your using him to compare.

Fine with that but expect a few more days against talented teams like yesterday.
