Domdab99 Posted August 12, 2018 Posted August 12, 2018 I was the biggest detractor of Allen before the draft. Now I'm his biggest fan. This kid is special and I can't wait to see him develop into the superstar he is destined to be. 2

Not only that, but at this point he looks less inclined to have off field issues than Big Ben.

He prolly felt right at home behind that porous O-line. 2 innacurate throws out of 19. Some horrendous WR play. He must have felt like a king amongst slaves.

If you want to say "it's just a preseason game," then disregard everything. They'll go into the film room, look at that play, and tell Allen what he did wrong. The same way they would for a regular season game. Do you disagree with that? Same point. Preseason games are a simulation of regular season and the players want to be executing correctly. They'll be critiqued as if it's a regular season game. If it doesn't matter to you, why get so defensive about a legitimate critique? Not getting defensive at all actually. Just saying your perspective for critiquing players is flawed. It should go with out saying preseason is not the same as regular season so one should be held to the same expectations.
