Are you just trying to play Devil's Advocate or are you presenting this as a legitimate argument?

Tyrod was a vet. Allen was a rookie. Not to bag on Tyrod. To be honest, he's probably a top 6 QB in franchise history.

I never hear it mentioned by radio or TV guys. Allen is great in the clutch. Everyone will know soon enough. He'll have many more ahead. Jim Kelly is a HOF qb. Jim never threw for 4000 yards ever in his career. If JA plays 16 games averaging 250 yards / gm =4000. 300 yard games are NOT necessary. 1

The comparison between their respective first two years in Buffalo needs a bit of context. Taylor was entering his fifth year in the league when got here. Allen was a 22 year old green horn brand new to the league. Taylor was a 5 star recruit at Virginia Tech after an outstanding high school career and was named ACC player of the year after leading VT to an 11-2 record as a senior. He started 42 college games in a major conference. Allen wasn’t recruited at all out of high school, went the JUCO route to get to a D-1 school and ended up at Wyoming in a conference that doesn’t compare to the ACC. Taylor was a polished QB after four years at a major college and another four learning the NFL game with the Ravens. Allen, by contrast, was as rough as they come with no previous exposure to big time programs. Given the disparity in their respective experience when their first two years with the Bills commenced, either Taylor was a very poor QB or Allen was actually not that bad.
reddogblitz Posted January 14, 2020 Posted January 14, 2020 This is all well and good. Great comebacks vs the Jets, Dolphins, and Titans (2-4). But against good teams later in the year the comebacks dried up. He had a chance vs Clevelend, NE twice, Baltimore, and of course the Texans. Zippo. 2 things. Need to do better earlier in the game so late game heroics are NOT needed. Need to do better in comeback situations vs better teams in the big games. Even the great comeback guys only do it 60% of the time or so. Matt Stafford has a lot of comebacks too. Hopefully a more talented O can help fix these things.
