SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 (edited) It's the first time in the Super Bowl era that rookie quarterbacks have gone 4-0 in the same week, according to Elias. (if this is wrong, don't shoot the messenger) [some media outlets say the Bills lost yesterday] http://www.espn.com/blog/nflnation/post/_/id/283850/from-0-4-to-4-0-rookie-quarterbacks-make-history Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills Stat line: 10-of-19, 82 yards, one interception, one rushing touchdown, 40.2 passer rating in a 13-12 victory over the Tennessee Titans. Positives: The Bills did not ask Allen to do much against the Titans besides get the ball out and avoid mistakes. He generally did both, taking only one sack after being sacked seven times last week. He was intercepted once on an accurate pass that should have been caught by wide receiver Andre Holmes. Allen continued to look more comfortable with his feet than his arm, scrambling for a 14-yard touchdown in the first quarter, his third rushing score of the season. Negatives: Allen likely will hold his spot entering Week 6 as statistically the worst starting quarterback in the NFL, after he failed to eclipse 100 passing yards in Sunday’s game. He notably underthrew Kelvin Benjamin on a third-and-10 in the second half and had another dump-off pass fall at a receiver’s feet. Allen is not working with a great group of pass-catchers but has done little to make them better through four starts. What's ahead in Week 6: The Bills play their next two games on the road, starting at the Houston Texans next Sunday. Coach Sean McDermott indicated after Sunday’s win over Tennessee that Buffalo will continue with a run-heavy game plan that protects Allen. -- Mike Rodak the others are listed too of course Edited October 8, 2018 by ShadyBillsFan

longtimebillsfan Posted October 8, 2018 Posted October 8, 2018 What difference do qb statistics with a green rookie qb? Aren't wins what is important. Allen has a long way to go. Did anyone think he was going to put up big numbers his first year? What can we expect with a new o line that is just starting to develop and a receiving corp that is one of the weakest in the league. Have some patience. Allen will get there.

Wins are more important for a rookie than gaudy stats imo. Someone needs to put stickum on KB’s hands. He has to have the worse target to catch ratio on the NFL and it is not all Josh’s fault
