bills6969 Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 B+. That’s one helluva D he went up against tonight, just after playing Balt’s D. He played well. More consistency is needed 1

More consistency is needed Exactly. After getting his ass handed to him vs. Baltimore, you have to wonder how he would respond. He made the plays he needed to make on a national stage against one of the best defenses in the game. Solid B+. 1

The pick was all on him and wasn't his only bad throw of the night. Brown saved him on back to back deep throws, once catching it and once preventing a pick. I disagree 100% * First off that was a brilliant back shoulder throw by Allen. Mahomes & Rogers hit that pass all the time. You do realize that the Steelers DB was called for PI on that play right? That's what a great back shoulder throw does - catch it for a big gain or draw a PI. * Brown didn't really prevent a pick on that throw. That was the moron Collingsworth trying to claim that the throw was almost intercepted. Watch a replay and the DB would have had to make a spectacular play to INT that ball. It was a good 50/50 ball by Allen and Brown did a nice job fighting for it and preventing any chance for an INT. Pretty routine play by an NFL WR. That POS Collinsworth was unbelievably negative about Allen. That "almost interception" was a perfect example of it. 2

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 I'll give him a B given the circumstances, playing a great D on the road in his very first night primetime game and the stakes being high. Normally with the raw numbers he put up the grade would be a C at best. But the QBR grading system thought he did well giving him a 59 QBR. Only a 65 QB rating that was surely dragged down a lot by the INT that still could have possibly been caught by Beasley, or easily caught by any WR 6'0" tall. I think we do need to take notice to what the Ravens are doing with Jackson and find ourselves more large targets for Allen in the off-season. Let's not forget Brady had Gronk for all those years too.
John from Riverside Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 Quote B You have to factor the competition......the importance of the game......and his impact on the game He had the pick....but that was really not his fault it popped off Beasely's hands SEVERAL drops in this game 1
dakrider Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 I'd say a B. JA didn't play badly and made the huge plays when it counted. He could have played better but also didn't throw 4 interceptions, and his 1 int was off the hands of his receiver.
JoPoy88 Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 I would also grade Allen a B. The inconsistency is still there, but he made some big, BIG throws when it mattered.
Easterner Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 My opinion Is if anyone thinks Allen should get a A for that performance something is wrong with you. 139 passing yards for a NFL QB is just not good enough. This is not acceptable for a NFL QB. We are lucky the Pittsburgh QB was worse. 2

Two things against him: 1) Multiple drops 2) Coaching staff went next level conservative for most of the game Edited December 16, 2019 by SCBills 1

Dude, the guy is in his second year on a ground-up rebuild against a team that won 7 of its last 8 with a kick-your-ass defense. He took what was given to him. He made the big throws that needed to be made. He threw for a TD and ran for a TD. AGAIN. I suspect you're one of those guys who thinks the problem with Josh Allen is he hasn't had a 300 yard game. C'mon. Admit it. 1

I would agree that Brown saved him on the second one .. but the first .. that is exactly where you want that placed. Brady makes that throw all the time and people say it was a smart throw. Have the receiver come back and the DB is in a horrible position. As for the Cole Beasley pass .. yes it was a bit high .. but excellent receivers make these all the time. The problem is we have very good receivers, but not an excellent reciever who will make the really hard catch. Edited December 16, 2019 by CorkScrewHill
BillsfaninSB Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 It’s pass/fail now. Just get the win. He passed. 2
Stank_Nasty Posted December 16, 2019 Posted December 16, 2019 He was pretty average but ya gotta take degree of difficulty into consideration here. -in Heinz field. Prime time game -arguably hottest d in nfl -wr’s once again dropping balls -the guy in this thread putting the INT on Allen is a douche. the dude did it in the 4th quarter AGAIN.... A “C” that I’m putting on a curve to a “B-“ 5

It’s frustrating when people won’t acknowledge Allen being an absolute monster rushing for TDs. Most QBs have to hand off or throw for TDs, even one yard out. That allows the defense to have a free man to move around. Against us, you have to account for the QB, and even then, the dude just runs people over for scores. 1
