    Okay, he throws to covered receivers 14% of the time, who knows the result of those plays or if there were other receivers open during the same play.

     

    "Allen doesn't throw to covered receivers enough."

     

    "Yes he does, here's proof."

     

    "Why doesn't Allen throw to his open receivers enough?"

     

    And around and around we go...

    But to think Allen isn’t holding back the offense, based on his play, I don’t know what you’re watching.

     

    Allen holds back the offense to some degree, as does Daboll, and the offensive line, and the entire supporting cast around him. I don't know what you expect. The offense is doing about as well as you could hope given the overall talent level. Guarantee you next year Beane will go all out to find a true #1 receiver.

    It means great QBs elevate the level of play of those around them. You’d get greater production out of those “covered” WRs with a better QB.

     

    John Brown is having the best season of his career, statistically. I think Allen's strengths are elevating his play. Of course Allen needs to keep improving. But let's not act like he's holding back the talent on this offense.

  4. Rooting interests today:

     

    Jets over Redskins, for draft purposes. And to make sure Gase gets another year.

     

    Colts over Jaguars. This one is kind of a win/win for us, but the Colts have more wins so I'll root for them to keep the Jags out of the wildcard race.

     

    Texans/Ravens I can't see much of a benefit either way. I guess I'll root for the Ravens so the Texans are more motivated to beat their division opponents the rest of the way.

     

    Vikings over Broncos.

     

    Eagles over Patriots.

     

    Bengals over Raiders. The Raiders actually worry me more than any other wildcard contender and they have a pretty soft schedule the rest of the way. It would help if one of their easy games turned into a loss.

     

    Chiefs over Chargers. This would effectively knock the Chargers out of the race. Although I'm starting to wonder about the Chiefs. If they lose today and the Raiders win I start to think of them as another wildcard contender.

     

    Tough week to pick favorites.
