Mat68 Posted September 9, 2019 Posted September 9, 2019 Darnold is a game manager. Mayfiled had a worst game then Allen. He has full reign of the offense. He isnt making half field reads. They are not creating a special college offense for him. Yes, his efficiency is not the best, but he is improving.
mead107 Posted September 9, 2019 Posted September 9, 2019 Was awesome. Had to hold off going to the bathroom. 1

Definitely an athlete and a leader. He just needs to consistently deliver the ball and cut down on errors. Remember a young Brett Farve. Same kind of player and he did ok. One fumble was on a sack, he needed to protect the ball. The second fumble was a terrible snap, he never got the ball. The Pick -6 was on Beasley. The other pick was a batted ball - bad bounce. He had two other "pickable" balls that fortunately the Jets missed. Yet he had a 308 yard game with 2 TDs. He threw for 270 yards and one TD, he ran for 38 yards and a TD. Despite most things going wrong for three quarters he LEADS HIS TEAM to a road win when down 16-0. That should be the story but with the majority of the media will likely be more focused on his errors. He slightly outplayed Darnold while in a more difficult environment you could see how lazy he was holding the ball. if i was dabol, i would have tore him a new one for not protecting the ball.....and he should have just fell on the bad snap.
Orlando Buffalo Posted September 9, 2019 Posted September 9, 2019 I am liking Allen but not loving him yet- I think it was Elway who said " if i was better the first 3 quarters I would not need to be so good in the fourth". If he can have that 4th without the first half being so bad he will be a good qb for a long time 1
Bevis Posted September 9, 2019 Posted September 9, 2019 Nice comeback, but it was his fault they needed a comeback in the first place, so it's a wash.

This was true ONLY for the strip sack fumble on the 1st drive. That was careless on Allen's part. As for the fumbled snap: * It was 4th down so falling on the ball would have been exactly the same as losing a fumble. * Allen was unable to fall on the ball because Morse was blown up so bad he was pushed a couple of yards into the backfield into Allen.

I know one of Detroit and Tennessee were comebacks, but I don't remember if they both were. It's his 4th. TN, Det & Jacksonville were the first 3. And as others have noted had Clay hung on to the ball we may be talking about 5 4th quarter comebacks. 1

While blasting the Dolphins he pointed out how screwed they were by being in a division with two young QB's - ALLEN & Darnold - who are franchise QB's for the Bills & Jets. I was surprised that he mentioned Allen by name as the Bills franchise QB. 1
