The flaws he has always shown are still prevalent.  

 

Most disconcerting is his accuracy, which remains a problem.

 

The narrative in pre-season was that he was improving in that area with better footwork.


That almost never works.

Positives

 

Stands tall in the pocket and is not phased by the rush

 

Goes through his progressions

 

Can make any throw 

 

Mobility and toughness

 

Isn’t Nate Peterman

 

Negatives

 

Doesn’t recognize pre-snap looks (shifts, blitzes, protection adjustments)

 

Footwork regressed today

 

Drifts sideways under pressure instead of stepping up into a muddy pocket

 

Doesnt trust his eyes - waits too long to make throws to open receivers 

 

Mental clock is still too slow

 

Accuracy remains an issue

Yea I thought he was a little "flat footed" on some throws. Just trying to muscle it with his arm. 

 

Saying that, I was happy he got the TD in the end. He mad some nice throws as well. He just needs to learn and recognize certain packages.

I dont even have a gripe with his ball placement (could be better, but to me it was good enough). My issue with him was seeming hesitant to throw.

I liked what I saw considering his lack of weapons, terrible line and not much of a running game though. Hoping to see him improve and learn this year.

The most impressive part for me was the plays he was able to make because of nothing but his physical attributes, when the game slows down and he understands how to dissect a defense, hes going to put up big numbers.

One thing he needs to learn, right away, is to slide feet first at the end of a big run.


He's a good runner but he should not be receiving big contact at the end of runs.

 

The coaching staff needs to work on that and improve it immediately.

If you can't see how solid of a first start that was, that's a you problem. Not an Allen problem, a you problem.

 

 

Do you ever tolerate an opinion different from yours?  Like, has that ever once happened?

Without considering how much we have invested in him etc. and just looking at his performance today:

 

I think that we at least have reason to be hopeful about Josh's potential.  The stat line was not great, but I think we saw enough to remain cautiously optimistic.  He played pretty well under very difficult circumstances. The Bills braintrust has not done him any favors (re line or receiving weapons).  He showed toughness and will need to be.

 

I have no idea whether Josh will be a "franchise" QB, but we do have reason to at least be hopeful about his potential.

Likewise. He had plenty of time on those inaccurate passes as well.

perhaps he needs some reps with the changing WRs and TEs ?

 He also had someone not looking for the ball going deep. and that happened at least twice.

work in progress

 Ilike the kid even more after today
