I took a look at Josh Allen and compared him to another, potentially playoff bound, QB since week 4 of the season - over the last 6 games.  Here's how they stack up and wondering what you think about it and not only his chances but the Bills chances going forward this season of being successful both during the regular season plus the playoffs and who you'd rather have right now

 

Allen:  112 completions against 186 attempts for 1272 yards, a 60.2% completion rate, 6.83 yards per attempt, 10 TDs vs 1 Interception, a QB rating of 96.44.   Additionally, 43 rushes for 200 yards a 4.65 ypa average and 4 TDs

 

QB:  166 completions against 257 attempts for 1691 yards, a 64.6% completion rate, 6.57 yards per attempt, 7 TDs vs 4 Interceptions, a QB rating of 85.92.   Additionally, 8 rushes for 5 yards a 0.63 ypa average and 2 TDs

 

 

 

Personally, in spite of all of the detractors out there I think he's playing pretty good ball with better ball ahead of him which bodes well for him and the rest of the season and hopefully postseason

I love Josh Allen, like almost to weird levels... however, why does everyone only pick and choose which weeks in the season to use for comparative purposes? Why not be a man and include the Pats game. Yes he did terrible, but if he did good something tells me that week would be used in the data.

Well if the pats** game were included then the other QB wouldn't look as good either because it's Tom Brady.

The reason I started after week 4 is because after those four weeks plus the 12 weeks he played last year it gave him a full 16 games worth of games.

 

Typically, it's said a QB's growth truly starts in season 2 of their career.

 

 

Oh and BTW the 2nd QB is none other than Tom Brady - that gives me hope for how Josh and the offense has developed PLUS that the Bills may have finally started to close the gap on the Pats

I grt what you’re saying, but I don’t think the comparison is great. Brady is 800 years old now and playing behind an offensive line that resembles the 2018 Bills as far as lack of talent.

The downside of this comparison is that pretty much everyone has acknowledged the Pats*** offense is stagnant and Brady isn't having a "typical" Brady year.

Oh not selective stats comparison again - looks like the following editing has taken place, TV Guide once put Oprah's head on Ann Margaret stock photo.  Not real

I think it is difficult to compare Josh Allen to an established QB.  With an established QB, you know pretty much what to expect.  Because of Allen's youth, he's kind of a moving target.  The general trend is toward improvement, but it's not a straight line, so you really can't be certain what you're going to get in a given week.
