CincyBillsFan Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 I am more convinced then ever after this game that Allen is the guy. Would anyone in their right mind argue that Watson & Jackson aren't the franchise QB's for their respective teams? Well take a look at how they played in their first playoff games which were played at home. Allen accounted for 372 of the Bills 425 yards today - enough said. 2 1
SeattleBills Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) Josh Allen was today what he has always been. He is that girl in that relationship in which 50% is great and 50% sucks and you think you can change that relationship to 100% great. It hasn’t happened in his career at any level, and it won’t happen now. This is hilarious ... take a read when you have a minute ... one of the best satirical pieces of sports journalism I have ever read ... priceless lol https://ftw.usatoday.com/2020/01/thank-you-josh-allen-bills Edited January 5, 2020 by SeattleBills 1 1
RyanC883 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 no he is not. one TD against the worst D in the playoffs.

Let the whole team and the coaching staff learn to win. Expand It's kinda funny. I feel we have a qb, OC and HC all young and trying to learn at the same time and pace. We all knew Josh was projected to take longer than most. I think that same timeline goes for McDermott and even Dumboll to some degree. This is year 2 for the qb and his inconsistent OC. And only year 3 for Sean. Maybe they all converge for next year? It will take upgrading many area's of the offense. It will take McD & Daboll to end their reign of conservative terror. I don't know if Daboll deserves to survive but hopefully they all converge someday?
london_bills Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 He's exciting as hell to watch, other than that the jury's still out.

Or perhaps his "Hail Mary" pass he threw up for grabs while in OT in a playoff game. That is "can't happen" stuff and it's still happening from him. And then the late throws, the fumble problems, the blitz problem, the reading defenses problem, the accuracy problem, the long ball problem.... How long does he get?!

Expand People were saying it was good play because it stopped the clock!!! You mention there being 1:04 left on clock, there were a few plays that felt like they were desperate last play of the game plays, when there was actually lots of time left. 1

I'm guessing its around 30 million. Would you take a 30 mil hit on the salary cap for next year? If the answer is no, he ain't your franchise QB. I think its important the Bills pick up a much better #2 QB, and/or draft a mid-rounder. Like the Titans and Mariota, Allen may need to be benched next year in order to save their season. Expand I forgot people like you still existed the ones that where calling for Jeff Tuel to actually start a professional football game

If he can't get it done with that line, we need to replace him.

He failed miserably when they put the game in his hands. This is exactly the reason he's been coached conservatively, to hide his flaws. Expand can say the same about golden boy tre - just let them 49 yd dimes drop.

fac53 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 There's that - but a slew completions on drives....and maybe one 2 pt convo?
Buffalo Barbarian Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Definitely, just needs more help so he doesn't try to do it all himself.

dma0034 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 With the exception of the Vikings game last year I have yet to see Allen win the Bills a game. Sure he has had a few game winning drives but lets be real... the defense keeps him in the game. This team would go further with 27/28 other QBs.
JMF2006 Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 We got to see it all in the WC game. The kid made a lot of good/great plays and then he just made you shake your head. He is a 23 year old QB playing in his biggest game ever in a very hostile environment and I think he got a bit rattled. So what? I think he puts this one in the memory banks and we get a better QB as a result. The Bills were 6-3 on the road this year 8-3 if you count PS games. Did anyone think that was possible when the season started? The Bills were pegged by all the talking heads as a 5 or 6 win team on the whole season by all the talking heads. Did Watson win his first playoff game? NO he didn't and it was at home! We couldn't expect Watson to suck the joint out forever Josh is our Franchise QB lets get behind him:)
