Five fumbles lost so the impact is not so big.

 

Kind of a nit, but...NFL.com shows the Bills as a team with 5 fumbles lost and Josh Allen with 4 fumbles.

I"m pretty sure someone else on the Bills has had a lost fumble this year.

Get the ball out quickly. Sling it around. Help us win.

 

I don't care about total yardage but I want to see Josh cutting it loose. I feel he has tried to play within himself the past 3 games.... I want less of that. If they wanted someone to manage the game, lean on the rushing attack, make the odd good throw on third down then they should have drafted Mason Rudolph. They drafted Josh to be the reason we win. Let the kid show it.

Winning is the only thing that matters.  Get to 6-2.  I’d like to see them free up Josh more, but let’s say Daboll sees they are weak against the run, kind of like Philly saw against us last week.  It would be coaching malpractice to not run Gore and Singletary and take advantage of the mismatch.

 

This obsession with Josh reaching some magic yardage is out of control.  It used to be completion percentage of over 60% and now since that is answered we have to have a new bone to gnaw on.  To the point that a poster this week literally said he’d rather the team lose so long as there’s 300 yards passing.

 

win the game.

Yeldon vs Bengals.  But I was talking about 5 lost of his 16 career.  16 may be concerning but with 11 recovered it doesn't seem like a big story to me.

6 TDS 500 yds :D

 

2 TDS and 250 yds should do it, this doesn't count all other scoring drives, which can be running TDS and FGs .

 

 

I would have a chub if that happens

It's a place where he can and should improve for sure, as with the dumb throws resulting in picks.

 

But I agree.

301 yards passing with 290 of it from screens.

Give people something to argue about all week ... 'it shouldn't count, it was all screens!'

I think the reason for the obsession with passing yards is it shows improvement from Allen. Like some one else said, Allen wasn't drafted to be a game manager. I watch other games a lot and for some reason Allen and the offense struggles much more then most. The worst part is they are playing some of the worst teams in the league this season.  They shouldn't be struggling as much as they do. 

 

As for what I expect, I need to see a big improvement today. He has to throw for over 220 yards, have a completion percentage of 70 and 2 passing TDs. I don't care if his short passes have improved, for me that's not good enough.

You need to see that?  Need?  What if he has that and they lose?

 

Need?  That’s just too self-absorbed for me, I guess.  I just want my team to win.

First off, a Bills win.

 

Secondly, I’d like to see Allen have a game where I’d feel confident that we could win a track meet if necessary.

The reason I said I need to see it, is it would a long way to show me Allen is the guy. Its not that I don't want to see them win, I want to the offense improve a lot. Cause up this point they are trending in the wrong direction. Scoring only 19 points a game isn't good enough. The defense isn't always going to hold teams to 17 points.

I see.  We differ in the word need.  I need to see them win.  I would like to see them free up Josh so he can play the first three quarters the way he plays the fourth quarter.
