You know what this world needs?  A Chris Collinsworth Mute Button.

 

Although I just asked Alexa to "mute Chris Collinsworth," and he shut up.  :lol:

We might want stop hoping that Josh Allen follows the Mitch Trubisky trajectory.  He looks like a poor man’s Ryan Tannehill.

That’s why completion percentage in and of itself is a joke statistic. You could probably have a 75% completion rate if all your passes travel no more than 3 yards.

It's why Trent was a legend here, completing mostly dump off short passes.

They're having to burn too many time outs trying to get their ***** together.

I mean I do think he needs to be better at that type of offense but I don't think Allen will ever not throw that pass on third down at the end of the half for the Bears. He needs to be better taking what he's given while not losing the willingness to sling it downfield it's an interesting balance.

 

No he doesn't. They need to tailor an offense to HIS skillset, not shoehorn him into some 3-5 yard passing offense.

Draft a qb with Allen's arm and then go dink and dunk. It's like drafting OJ and using him as a decoy. I suppose the young'uns won't get this reference.

Including Brandon Reilly in the list was the joke.

1st, I think we may have had some front office/coaching staffs that may have thought of using OJ as a decoy..... (Might be a good offence though, imagine going out on defence and seeing OJ just standing there, maybe with some gloves and nice shoes?)

 

2nd, you still disrespected the great  white WRs by not including Beebe and Hogan.....

It's what people want around here...65% completion rate+

 

I'd rather have chunk plays.

 

Well, they have Cole Beasley and Daboll is recreating the Pats* offense. I understand you probably shouldn't run the old Raider's style vertical passing game. I'm not against moving the chains and creating matchup problems. But the long ball has to be a key part of your game when you have a fella that can throw it eighty yards and speedy wrs that can go get it. Run game and underneath routes benefit as well. I think they know that, so I'm not too concerned they are going to ask Allen to simply take the easy short stuff. They'll be easy short routes because the D has to fear the chunk plays.

I'd rather he be able to play well at every level of the field. More like what he did in the 2nd preseason game taking the easy short stuff when it's there but also taking the longer stuff when he's got it.

This I think is the biggest mistake coaches make, not tailoring their systems to the players they have. You don't go 'dink & dunk' with a QB who can air it out deep and has a knock of not being horribly accurate. You start finding fast WRs who can get down field and get them the ball. Just like you don't take a weaker armed QB and put them into a 'greatest show on turf' air it out offence.
