  2. The problem is that sometimes they are open, but he'll pull it down when he should not.
  3. He's lagging behind all three of them and it should come as no surprise to anyone. That's the current snap shot.
  4. Some is on Allen and some is on the supporting cast.
  5. 2019 NFL Draft order, team needs: Bills, Broncos slide into top 10 This is a look at the first-round order of the 2019 NFL Draft through Week 6. The order is determined by record, using strength of schedule as a tiebreaker. Keep in mind -- teams 21-32 would make the playoffs if the season ended today. The draft order for playoff teams is determined by the results of postseason play. We've added three needs for each team to the mix this time around in our weekly look at where things stand in the 2019 draft order. Now, keep in mind -- these needs will evolve over the course of the season and beyond, as personnel moves are made (the trade deadline is a couple weeks away), areas that look troubling now begin to stabilize and perceived strengths begin to fray before the regular season winds to a close in a few months. This is simply a snapshot of what those needs could be when we reach that point. As for the draft order, the teams that occupied the top five a week ago still occupy those spots this week, with some minor shuffling. The big movement takes place outside of the top five, with three teams sliding into the top 10. Arrows indicate how far up or down a team has moved relative to last week.
  6. This is highly recommended if you have subscription access: As each game goes by for Josh Allen, defenses are getting more and more film on his skills and how offensive coordinator Brian Daboll is having to scheme for the raw quarterback. Which is scary because the results thus far have been putrid. The Bills offense currently ranks 32nd in Football Outsiders’ DVOA metric and I don’t see it getting much better, even when Allen returns to the lineup. He left Sunday’s loss to the Texans in the third quarter with a right elbow injury that reportedly is to his ulnar collateral ligament. He is expected to get a second opinion. Daboll has predominantly gone to half-field reads in every aspect of the passing game. He utilizes motion frequently to help Allen identify the coverage of man versus zone. Sometimes he will have Allen simply read whether the defense is in a one-high safety look or a two-high coverage. It’s a strategy that cannot be sustained long-term but, given the situation, is their best option. Allen struggles to see the field and read coverages pre- to post-snap, and generally he lacks trust in his accuracy. All of those weaknesses have made the jobs of opposing defensive coordinators that much easier. If the Bills offense doesn’t get the coverage it expected, the chances of a play succeeding are slim.
