It was the kind of nervous pass that Allen throws sometimes at the beginning of the game. He often starts 'nervously' is the only way I can put it. An easy throw for a QB and he misses it (brown could have caught it but it would have been a difficult catch) and we are 3 and out and punt. Inconsistency and often a lack of conviction when it matters. I am expecting more from Allen which may be unrealistic due to his skillet.

It's never 100 percent one no.

There were good throws from Allen but only momentary things. I never got the sense that he is a QB is control of this team and offence and that he could lead them to win this game. I was hopeful on the last drive but that wasn't to be either. I actually thought he had very little presence today, aswell as not hitting all the throws. Really felt like tyrod out there.

I disagree. The moment did look too big for him. The team needed more from that position.

Yeah one of the main jobs of the OC is to design plays where people are open. I think he is doing that to an extent.

He did look deflated. He had more of an attitude earlier in the season, last season against the vikings.

I watched the pressers. Allen was great, such a cool humble guy but I don't correlate the 'needing to be better, putting the game on him' with him able to be better. Mcdermott did look angry about the long shots on 3rd down I thought. Why wasn't he called out for being meek on the last drive? Why didn't they go no huddle today at any point?

I dont get the impression we are getting better as the season goes on though.

Whilst I agree with the reservations about McDermott's defensiveness the wins have to be factored in. I'm not sure I want to can a coach who has a winning record!

Won't happen. mcds record is a good one. IF They start to lose and the record is not good then there will be noise if they continue to play averagely.

I've thought that on other plays. Same thing they said about EJ/tyrod. Doesn't get through his progressions. Locks on to one side, maybe doesnt have great periferal vision. I noticed today he was looking one way then throwing another which I hadn't seem him do before so that was progression of sorts.

What a browns loss does. Disgusting

Haha

I'm sure you have an opinion!

Yeah. Feels like he's slow with his progressions

This was a disgusting loss.

I know what your saying. I feel that way about Allen. Last drive was a horror show. But as a HC mcdermott is 6-3.

Absolutely. There are plenty of threads about Allen, Daboll and McDermott!

All depends on the record surely. 10-6, 9-7 he's not getting the can.

This is what I think. But the last drive I was trying to work out if that was on mcd getting involved in the playcalling rather than on Allen which I felt was the case for the majority of the game.

Was awful last drive. Did he veto a call or something? I see what you mean, not letting Allen go for it. One thing Allen might be is a 'hall of farmer' though.

Wouldn't be shocked if mcdermott wants a different QB. Last drive was odd

Maybe 'urdad' can tell us what we have in josh Allen..

Can mcdermott fire another OC?

Last drive was awful.
