  1. The chest pass to Knox was not a high degree of difficulty in itself. Many of us could probably make that pass. But what makes it so difficult / unique is doing that in actual live action on the run with a rush. That one also had some pretty good air distance travel too it as well. All the chest passes i have seen typically tend to be very short in air yards. Passes like that have only been seen a handful of times across the league. Josh's reaction after throwing the pass was also one of one. Just a shame it will be forgotten.
  2. But all the advanced efficiency metrics favor Allen. Allen has a higher QBR and EPA. So it isn't even really true that Lamar has been the more efficient player. One of the other arguments you hear is that Lamar would have more rushing TD's if he didn't have Henry on his team. That is also false. For one, look at Lamar's entire career. He has never been a high volume rushing TD QB. Why would this year with or without Henry be any different? Second, James cook has the same amount of rushing TD's as Henry, they both have 13. So if the argument is Henry has stolen some rushing TD's from Lamar, why is the same not true for Allen?
  3. Josh is going to blow away his QB career rushing TD record which is probably the only thing Cam has left to hold onto. Hurts will blow by it as well if his career doesn't flame out early like Cam's did.
  4. Lebron is more a unicorn than Jordan was in terms of size and gifts and that is why McGrady compares Allen to Lebron. As others have said, no slight in being compared to Lebron. If Jordan is the best NBA player of all time, Lebron is #2 on most lists. Also remember, the careers of Carter and McGrady overlapped more with Lebron's career than with MJ's.
  5. Bengals just need to beat the Browns this week and Broncos next week at home for it all to come down to the final week. Seems likely.
  6. Bengals are getting the 7 seed. You can see it coming from a mile away. They will beat the Broncos at home next week which will guarantee meaningful week 18 games for the 7th seed . Chiefs will beat the Broncos and Bengals find a way to beat the Steelers. Colts win out. Their schedule is easy but Colts are not a good team so it will be difficult for them to take full advantage of an easy schedule. They lost both games to the Ravens by a combined 4 points.
  7. Herbert is big, strong, has a rocket arm and good straight line speed. What he lacks is agility and vision. Those last two traits are perhaps the most underrated traits Allen has.
  8. this play was so ridiculously good. Probably would’ve been Allen’s greatest highlight reel play of all time. But now it will mostly be forgotten forever.
  9. Last year was bonkers in the AFC. Going into the weekend the Bills were anywhere from division champs and the two seed or out of the playoffs all together. Totally opposite this year. Bills clinch division with 5 games to go and the AFC playoff field could all be decided with two games to go with just the seeding to be sorted out.
  10. Not having a dome only hurts Allen’s MVP chances but it actually helps the Bills ability to win most games.
  11. Makes sense. Allen was harassed almost endlessly in the two game losing streak against the Ravens and Texans. Both those games would be entirely different if we played those teams again.
  12. He'll finish his career with over 100 rushing TD's most likely which is absurd.
  13. He's still a really, really good coach in a lot of aspects. Let's not forget he broke the drought in his first year with a pretty poor roster. He's seemingly never had a bad secondary his entire career here. Always getting the maximum out of the players in the secondary. That said, he very well could be coaching for his job this postseason for other obvious reasons. But I would be surprised if he didn't land another head coaching job right away.
  14. That was such a bizarre call. I guess when you are 12-1 and for now hold the tiebreaker over the Eagles for the one seed you have some leeway.
