Sounds like Allen has struggled in red zone work, but I am guessing they dont want him running the ball during these reps. That takes away his biggest advantage in the red zone and if the defense knows he isn't running kind of tips the scales in the favor of the defense Which is the point of practice, right? At this time of the year the simple installation of the system is done. Now is the perfect time to practice things that have given Allen problems in the past. And they are trying to hard code in that running is the last ditch option

Seriously though, I never understood why Tomlinson couldn't find an original nickname. Edited August 6, 2019 by vincec

And those guys did two-a-days. Maybe these guys are in TOO good a shape entering camp and the hot weather makes these guys more susceptible to injuries. While in the past, the players used to use TC as the way to get into shape. Maybe that is the difference in today's world. I don't know. Players get injured every year. Even worse than this year. We just forget. 10 minutes ago, ShadyBillsFan said: Soooo if they don't return to SJF..... No more Astro???? I assume the public will get to attend some camp at OBD. Especially if they use the stadium.

Most importantly, he didn’t try to force a throw that wasn’t there, which has led to some problems in previous practices. I think we all better wrap our heads around this. It’s how he plays football. He knows he possess an absolute cannon and his confidence in his abilities weren’t dampened at all with 9 starts in his rookie season. Think Favre -and to a much lesser degree, Fitz. Will he continue to work on his footwork and body position throughout his career? Assuredly. ALL the other tools anyone dreams of in a QB, he has in Spades. He already has 2 come from behind wins, and he’ll likely have 40 before a long & healthy career comes to an end. Will he also lose a couple via ‘WTF? throws’ in critical situations? Assuredly. Ya can’t have Tyrod & Farve in one. It’s 2 entirely different makeups. Get used to it. 1 1

And they are trying to hard code in that running is the last ditch option Its exactly the point of practice, you should always work on things that need improving or want to improve or even test out. But it would be naive to believe the defense doesn't take advantage of this knowledge especially when it comes to red zone work with a smaller field to work with For red zone work in practice, in my opinion seeing how often the offense converts and not turn the ball over would be a much better statistic to evaluate Allen and the offense

That's who you WANT him to be. The great thing about a kid like Josh is that he's got the makeup to make enough plays to outweigh any bad things he does. 1

And even though he can't necessarily control himself, he knows what the bad plays are and will presumably learn from that as he goes along. But no Bills fan should ever want Josh to lose the killer instinct and big play mentality. "No biscuit if you don't risk it." 1
