Nice game but Allen needs to pass

[Niagara Dude]

Great team win and Allen made some huge throws and ran for over 100yards,  end of the day i do not want my franchise QB focused on running the football.  For Allen to become a great franchise QB he needs to throw the ball and more plays to need to be called to throw the ball and not run.  This is a passing league, and ground and pound is for losers  the great teams pass for 300yards on weekly basis and we struggle to make it to 200 yards. Yes the receivers suck but we need to stay committed to becoming a pass first team.  Even finishing this season focused on passing the ball and establishing ourselves as a pass first team will help signing potential free agent WR'S.

Not to sound like McDermott but we will probably have to see the tape to see how often he prematurely escaped the pocket.  I think based on the eyeball test he did great and did what he had to do to win the game.   I loved his game today.  I think with a few more pieces on the line and in the WR corps Allen will be even better.

[Agent 91]

Im ok with the no 300 yd thing. But I also don't want to see him talking the hits 

 

I find it funny that Allen comes back and Zay disappears again. I need to understand the gameplan. 

 

McKenzie looks intriguing I will admit

[ColoradoBills]

Don't be a bogart Josh.

[Mike in Horseheads]

Ummm he threw a lot of good pass's, Thompson dropped one and penalties killed a few, quit looking at the stats

An Allen hater attempting to come to grips with their wrong opinions.

He will pass more with better receivers and a better offensive line. Right now the quality of options at the wide receiver position and at the TE are just not great. The line also doesn't quite give him enough time.  Today was a great start. He has a very bright future. Has all the tools.

Yah sux when we win

I was critical of Allen running too much prior to this game. But I thought he did great today. Some of the passes he threw were awesome (even the ones dropped and negated by penalty).  That’s all I needed to see... that he can make some world class throws, and he can.  As he develops more the running will slow down and the passing numbers will increase. 

[DuckyBoys]

Thompson just got here  They didnt seem to be on the same page on a few throws  No clue what happened with Zay Jones  Hes MIA but then again they didnt throw that many passes

well...while i see your point, i have to disagree. this kid is running for first downs and touchdowns. moving the chains and scoring points. of course you want him to thread the needle and hit his receivers rather than risk bodily harm. but you cannot argue this kid's will to win. the rest will come. he wants to win and will do anything in his power to do so. with experience will come wisdom.

[John from Riverside]

Why should we throw 35 times when he’s a multi threat Qb

 

This is the jags defense we are talking about just say Qbrecord for the most rushing yards and would’ve easily been over 200 yards passing but for not all the penalties I’m not even counting Thompson Drop because you have drops in every game but the penalties by the offense of line that called back his wonderful passes were a lot

You want him to throw when the pocket breaks down and no on is open in his eyes?  Let the kid figure it out. I was happy with his effort. Tough secondary. 

[Clyde Smith]

He went against the 4th rank pass defense. I'm glad he played confident with no turnovers.

[Freddie's Dead]

I don't give a crap about Allen's stats (pretty sure neither does he).  We only care about scoreboard, and this kid is a winner.  

[jaybee]

He will be traded in three years and be a backup quarterback for a couple years and be out of the league by 2024. Probably sooner. He is an excellent athlete but a very bad quarterback.
