Mojo44 Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 2 hours ago, PearlHowardman said: Why do 7 out of 10 posters here admit that Josh Allen has a accuracy problem but then turn around and say how great Josh Allen is? I don't get it. Accuracy isn't something that you teach. Wrong. Accuracy, at least from the pocket, is an absolutely trainable psycho motor skill. Do some research. Google it for crying out loud! This is one of the biggest myths about quarterbacks that accuracy, at least from the pocket, cannot be trained and improved.It most definitely can. 1
Hebert19 Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 That backshoulder to Zay was perfect. Right down to Zays timing. Too bad he couldn't hold on.

26CornerBlitz Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 Irrespective of the ups and downs, the most dynamic and best player on the field today was Allen. 3 1

I agree, he should sit in the pocket and take the beating, he might even survive. Or throw picks because nobody’s open. Maybe we can punt our way back the the line of scrimmage after all the sacks. He’s got a LONG way to go, but today was very encouraging. Sketchy start, but he came around and put the offense on his shoulders. I don’t want him running TOO much, but we lose by 3+ TD’s today without his legs. At least he knows when to slide or go OB. It works for Russell Wilson. It’s a work in progress.

So on these runs...The Bills are not executing the offfense game plan. either Allen can’t see the field or is refusing to throw or other areas are failing. every time he runs...the play has failed. He’s had over 200 rushing yards in 2 weeks. That’s ALOT of broken/failed plays. Thats not true empty back field qb draw is in his gameplan, the coach and oc has said so. Granted not all of them are qb draws, however if a lane is open and your wrs are locked up get yards and get down. It slows the pass rush and opens other players up. 1
JohnC Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 2 hours ago, Kirby Jackson said: He is good The pass to Demarco for a thirty yard gain where Josh took some muster off of his fast ball and shown that he is capable of throwing with touch demonstrated to me that he is progressing as a passer as opposed to a thrower. He is going to be real good. What was also encouraging about this game is the play of Zay Jones. He certainly is playing up to his draft status. What this game also demonstrates is that the organization has to stress improving the OL and the receiver corp in the offseason. The player who needs to go is Benjamin. His indifferent play should not be tolerated. 1 1

Matt_In_NH Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 Lots of missed ipportunities by this team but Allen showed us a lot today. If he can get his accuracy down he will be a real weapon.

I have no doubt he's gonna be great if he can continue to develop every week The kid's got the heart of a lion. I loved it when the camera showed him over on the sidelines firing up the offense. With more reps, the kid's going to be fine.
BuffaloButt Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 2 hours ago, Binghamton Beast said: Just stop. The kid is the closest thing we have seen to John Elway since Elway was young. His true success will include his running ability. I heard the announcer compare him to Steve Young! I like that comparison and hope that his passing continues to develop which we have definitely seen as of late! Dude is flat out balling and running away from defenders! 1
WideNine Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 2 hours ago, Binghamton Beast said: Just stop. The kid is the closest thing we have seen to John Elway since Elway was young. His true success will include his running ability. Don't sweat the trolling...and all the whining. He stiff arms one defender, spins away from another, jukes a third before getting a 40 yard pass off across his body and you get the guys asking "what's with the wobbly ball?". Seriously? Even Lofton was talking about how Josh Allen was taking less damage scrambling (for over 100 yards) than when he stayed in the pocket and was getting hit late over and over. After one late hit where the defender (a DT over 300lbs) fork lifted Josh and landed with his full weight driving him to the turf, Josh looked up at the ref like what gives? The camera caught the Miami player laughing as he walked away - no call of course. 1 4
Inigo Montoya Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 (edited) Today was the first game all season where I believed the Bill's best chance to win the game was to put the ball in Allen's hands. Forget the final score, today was a great day to be a Buffalo Bills fan. Edited December 3, 2018 by Inigo Montoya 6
peterpan Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 2 hours ago, Success said: Allen was amazing. Can’t believe all of the “but this and that pass weren’t perfect” stuff. He wasn't amazing. He missed about 8-10 passes which an amazing QB would.only miss 2-3 of those. His passes that weren't perfect cost us the game. Like the miss to wide open Zay Jones in the end zone. And the wobbly ball to Clay. Then there was the long bomb overthrow to Foster. That's three missed TD passes. 17 points. His 2nd int was a bad ball too, KB was open. There were others too. I don't expect him to make every throw but he needs.more of those throws in the future
Nextmanup Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 Remove Allen's running highlight plays--of which there have been many--and you don't have a lot leftover. Here's the thing: the running will eventually be stopped by opposing defenses and it doesn't win many games in the NFL to begin with.
Steptide Posted December 3, 2018 Posted December 3, 2018 Anyone know what the record is for a qb running in a game? Allen had 135 today, that's gotta be close

Completely disagree, his running is a weapon. He should use it, especially his first three years in the league. His passing will continue to develop and surpass his running in time. 4

Yeah, take away what was wildly successful and it wasn’t that good. Allen played a great game. It it was interesting though. My brother was a college QB and we almost always see things the same way. I came away today with a ton of optimism. He did not. Allen has a lot of development ahead of him but we should feel great about the progress. 2
