    Totally agree with the point being made, but IMO, the timing of that was wrong. 

     

    At some point in time, the Bills need to take a shot immediately after a turnover. Keeping the defense is honest, but taki g a deep shot right after a turnover, while the opponent is reeling, typically yields an increased chance for success on the play. Considering the fact that Allen is young and raw, Daboll should take advantage when given the best opportunity. The flea flicker to start the game, for example, would probably have been a much better call after one of those turnovers. Jmo

    Only works when you have guys who can get down field  We have no speed at wr  Actually we have nothing at wr to threaten anyone

  2. I take anything these guys say with a grain of salt.  What to David Carr, Jordan Palmer, Trent Dilfer, Chris Simms have in common?  They all failed as NFL qbs.  I sat though dozens of Bucs home games and Trent was horrible.  His post games were usually filled with finger pointing and excuse making.  They guy shrunk from pressure and was scared to get hit.  Bucs had that high pick invested so they stuck with him for way too long .  He wasnt any better even when he had arguably the best modern era defense with the ravens along with  a great running game they won despite him .  Guy could have been put into the 49ers system under Bill Walsh and he would have sucked.  QBs who are scared to get him and scared to push the ball downfield rarely if ever fix those traits.  Allen hasnt shown any of that.

  3. Already have plenty of pro and con Allen threads.  Please dont make this into an other one. My question is what do this year to help him develop with what they have to work with?  What offense can you run with what we currently have that gives a rookie qb a fighting chance to be even modestly successful.  The Vikings game we had short field right away several times and Allen made some plays as an athlete not a qb.  Do we go heavy personnel and run heavy?  Not as concerned about winning football games (were not a playoff contender) as keeping games out of chuck and duck garage time by the second quarter. Obviously having him drop back deep and try and throw downfield with this wr core is a ridiculous proposition  Yet were doing it over and over instead of getting the ball out quick

  4. he seems to be accurate when he steps into throws and isnt running for his life  Coaching staff had no answer once the game script started to get away from them  They panicked early and abandoned the run game.  Josh hurt them with the pick at the end of the 1st half  Little bit too much hero ball.  The most concerning thing he does which I hope they will fix with better protection and him learning trusting his line more will fix is fleeing the pocket to his right needlessly often right into pressure.  That game was more frustrating for me from the standpoint of how quick their playcalling turned to throw/throw/throw.  Also stop with the play action bombs on 1st down or give him a 2nd option  I have yet to see Foster or anyone else get over the safety by more than half a step  That is a incredibly low % offense to run

  5. biggest issue I see is when teams bring delayed pressure , instead of picking up the free runner out guards have a tendency to needlessly double a guy who is under control thus opening up lanes for Allen to get smashed.  Allen not helping by some indecision (again out wr core sucks so hard to know if a passing lane is there) and also he's leaving a clean pocket too often mostly to flee to his right  He's gotta trust the protection and thus far its not happening  Run the football and have the vet center call out the protection till Allen is ready too the problems pre snap

  6. the blowouts are when the game script doesnt go the Bills way which is get turnovers and have success running the football.  It amazes me that they hid Tyrod's deficiencies by sticking with the run game but trot out a rookie qb with the nfl's worst receiving core (by far) and try to be not only a passing team but execute deep concepts behind a garbage OL.  Its like they decided lets find the worst offense to run when you have a bad line and slow receivers with no hands.  You'd have to try really hard to run  worse scheme and particularly some of the playcalls.  You have zero speed yet they love to try low % deep passes when Foster not only can seperate but when he's open he continues to drop or not fight for the football.  I didn't enjoy the boring Marrone coached games but he knew what he had and how to try and get wins with it.
