Great, a QB in the NFL made a couple good throws in a rather underwhelming game...big deal. You guys are still sore we didn’t draft him and trying to force a narrative. Had he been a Bill, he would already be labeled a bust based on how he’s played over the SEASON so far. There are a lot of people here who don’t care to read a multitude of tweets by media hacks. Yet, we are forced to see them by the dozens day after day after day. And yes I have posted tweets, but 99.9 of them are from the Bills or Bills players and GMFB. (Kay) 1

Allen had one pretty good half of football in that game before the Bills shut things down in the 2nd half. Blame the coaches for backing off with a 3 TD lead. Why take risks passing the ball. Play safe and protect the lead. Simple logic 1

And it’s the coaches fault? And the OLines fault And it’s the surrounding talents fault? Well, it certainly cannot be a simple case of someone needing to denegrate a specific player whilst campaigning hard for another, can it? That type of person would seem to be extremely self centered and lacking in maturity. 2

Allen had one pretty good half of football in that game before the Bills shut things down in the 2nd half. Thereafter he was pretty bad in GB, against TEN, and struggled further in HOU although he mixed in a couple of impressive throws including the one he was injured on. Most of his best plays have been made with his legs as shown in MIN and against TEN. I watch football all across the league and that includes keeping tabs on Allen's peers from the '18 draft. Lots of insecurity here on TSW. He didn’t struggle in Houston, did you even watch the game? They limited hat they had him doing till later in the game but to say he was struggling is just lying...

They limited hat they had him doing till later in the game but to say he was struggling is just lying... Lying? That's a strong word to use with no evidence. His 1st throw of the game was in the dirt to a wide open receiver. He came on late with a couple of really good throws to Benjamin with one being wiped out by penalty. But he struggled for most of the game with the Texans playing a lot of coverage looks that confused him.

Which is subjective and not “real” proof. What’s not subjective six sacks, three interceptions and two defensive touchdowns, the first coming on the second play of the game. Yeah it began and began poorly
Fadingpain Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 These petty arguments about whether or not Allen is any good will fade with the passage of time. Not too many folks around here still arguing in support of Fitz, EJ, or Tyrod for that matter. Best QB we've had for a long time is Kyle Orton! Man, that's like a kick in the balls and punch in the gut at the same time.

They wont fade till the Bills start winning consistently Fans have been arguing about the qb here ever since Kelly hung it up.Its just getting uglier with each qb change. Even if Allen puts a few solid games together all it will take is a loss and the haters will be right back out commiserating about whichever qb is hot that we passed on

Lots of insecurity here on TSW. It’s not insecurity. It’s the complete lack of understanding by many fans that all rookie QBs are works in progress and need time. There was a huge “Allen is a bust” contingent here last week, citing a few nice throws Rosen made and saying we picked the wrong Josh. They’re a wee bit quieter now, which is a very welcome development. We won’t know who picked the “wrong Josh” for 2-3 years. Maybe neither team did, or maybe both did. But the laments that we weren’t seeing progress from Allen 5 games in were absurd, as though progress with rookies is measured from one throw to the next. 4

I would say I’ve seen progress then some rookie mistakes followed by more progress followed by mistakes followed by progress what is what people typically see

There are very few here saying Allen is a bust and I'm certainly not among them. It's been obvious from the beginning that he would need time as I have said from the onset. Fair or unfair he's playing football in the NFL as a starter so his shortcomings will be scrutinized to death. That's the way it is in the NFL so there's no sense in crying about it.
