I don’t know how many HS WR’s there are in the country, but it’s a lot. Being highly recruited out of high school doesn't mean that he doesn't drop passes
dayman Posted September 10, 2018 Posted September 10, 2018 Allen is one of the better offensive players we have on the team...let that sink in and ask yourself if you can honestly say it isn't true. We suck.

I don’t know how many HS WR’s there are in the country, but it’s a lot. His speed and athleticism has resulted in him being an overrated WR his whole life. He has never been able to develop ball skills. Speed doesn't mean much in this league if you can't find the football when it's in the air.

It looked like the ball hit the back of the defender’s helmet. It popped up as Foster’s momentum and the defender pushed him backwards. He grabbed for the ball and couldn’t haul it in.

I remember the play and the ball did in fact hit the defender first but he still had a chance to try and catch it before it hit him or after the ball bounced and he did neither. I'm a lot more upset the way Benjamin played. That's the real issue today.

On the contrary, his ability to get open has been impressive and he made a nice TD catch the last preseason game. He’s been a pleasant surprise.
Bfanlc Posted September 10, 2018 Posted September 10, 2018 So we are just discussing one pass? He didn't drop 10 did he? All the hate based on one pass? 1

The illogic is astounding.

I am not sure how they'll draft an entire wideout corps next year, but they will need to. Maybe Dawkins and Mills are serviceable but Groy, Miller and Ducasse all must be replaced. And don't laugh, this entire WR corp is gone. KB dropping that perfect TD from Josh just shows us this pathetic future.

Clear as day. A decent receivers catches both, and probably even has a big gain on the second one. He didn't even try to catch them and just shied away from the ball. Peterman air mailed the first one. Admittedly.

That's an extremely hard catch even if it hits the WR in the hands because of the quick misdirection. The ball was also five yards short. But Allen looked good.

Oh I get it now you're blind...or Peterman's dad. well his avatar is Mr. J. Peterman holding a baby-sized #2 Bills jersey. So the answer is, he is Peterman's dad. 1

Hey, I appreciate the comment you're making here. People made up their minds about Peterman after that infamous Chargers debacle, and will now and forever filter reality through the lens of that 5-interception meltdown. It's what most people do with their opinions, and it's unfortunate. However, in this particular case, there is no objective reason to abandon that position. Peterman looked bad, again. The lack of production was historic.

While what you say is true, there were many, many people here, most of the best minds IMO, that said way before the Charger game that Nate couldn't play or cut the mustard. And thought he is nowhere near ready or could ever be ready before that game.
