The Bills got the lead in that first Jets game and never looked back. They ran the ball 46 times for 212 yards which was 2x the amount Barkley threw it. Barkley didn't do anything that special to win that game as the Bills defense did their jobs and held the Jets to 10 points, the Bills special teams did their jobs and didn't allow long kick off returns for easy scores. This weeks game should have been out of hand early by Buffalo but poor play by the Bills special teams let them back in the game. Expand its what he didnt do that was half the battle though

He wasn't great or anything but I'm not sure who else I'd go with, no one was making plays happen besides him. We lost by 4 and missed 2 FGs... despite everything that happened with drops and poor special teams and no run game we should have won. I'm not expecting him to pull out miracles all on his own at this point. 2 3

That is uncharacteristic, but happens to the best of them. Expand I don't know if I'd call it really bad. He had one that was just a perfect pass and catch against Anderson on the sideline and then a TD to Anderson where he had to cover him for over ten seconds.

Expand Yeah, White actually had pretty good position. The throws were right where they needed to be , mostly because Frazier was scared of his own shadow vs the turnover prone rookie Darnold.
K-9 Posted December 9, 2018 Posted December 9, 2018 Five pages in and not one tip of the hat to a couple good plays made by the opponent when they needed a play to be made? Ridiculous. And very short sighted.

Star has been kind of 'meh' and Trent Murphy doesn't contain his lane. It also doesn't help that Leslie Frazier is running a scheme from 25 years ago where there is little pass rush, stunting, or blitzing. A weak pass rush puts too much pressure on the DBs, though overall we have a good DB squad.
Iverwig Posted December 9, 2018 Posted December 9, 2018 I’m not upset with the loss because we weren’t making the playoffs and we need the best draft pick we can get. It’s Allen or bust.

Expand That said, Barkley DID hit some key passes EARLY that gave the running game some room, especially that first bomb to Foster. Maybe not special by NFL standards, but special by the standards I've come to expect from watching our team play. I'm not an Allen detractor at all... I want the kid to be good and I have my fingers and toes crossed. I've seen some good things and I've seen some bad things. I love the way he plays... he has heart and a strong competitive desire (not to be underestimated). He's tough, has a cannon for an arm, and he can very much extend or break plays with his speed and size. We definitely need to get Allen PLENTY of help on that side of the ball to improve his development and SOON. That development is hard to pursue when his receivers are not even close to sure-handed and he's scrambling behind a rotating cast of sub-par linemen. I don't want him picking up bad habits or "learning how to lose" while we search for the rest of the parts we need on offense. Still, hope for the future.
entropyrules Posted December 9, 2018 Posted December 9, 2018 I hope this doesn't turn out to be the case but Allen reminds me a lot of Jeff George only with better wheels. That guy had a gun for an arm but was totally erratic in his play-having one great game them several so-so games and then a couple of awful games..maybe by mid season next year he'll end up a bit more consistent. Right now though Mayfield and Darnold look like the real deal and the two Joshs are mostly question marks
