Other than Mahomes, I wouldn't take any QB in the league over Allen.

 

The case could be made that right now Rodgers and Brees are better QB's but yeah I agree - Mahomes is the only one with a better all round package moving forward.

Rodgers is old and Brees is REALLY old.  Despite his age, Rodgers is still playing at a very high level, but Brees' play has declined this year.  When I say I would "take" Allen over all QB's other than Mahomes, I am taking their age/future into account.  I'm just clarifying my point, but it appears that we are in agreement.

Wha wha wha whaaaaatt?????? That was an absolute thing of beauty. Perfection. Reminded me of the PATS in Brady's prime.

Agree. Only tidbit was that early Run cost them a chance for 7 IMO.  But getting points there and stopping the double dip was perfect even without the 7

Josh Allen is the first passer in franchise history to attempt 40 or more passes in a game and complete at least 80% of them.

 

Awesome 👏

Still on cloud 9 after that win. Game plan by daboll was a thing of beauty, probably the best called game offensively I've seen in twenty plus years. Josh Allen was incredible, made multiple throws that left me in awe. Defense is playing physical, and starting to form an identity similar to last seasons. Really really impressed

Keyshawn has a short memory and judges what he sees by the current standings.  When the Bills dethroned Russ from the MVP crown, that was signature.  Now looking back on it, it dims a bit because the Hawks talk is diminished.  The lingering issue is being embarrassed on B2B games by the Titans and Chiefs.  Makes no matter what he thinks.  Folks who pay attention see the Bills are coming.  I've heard several people using the SB-team moniker in talking about them today.  The tide is turning.  The team is surging and they are going to show the difference between Pittsburgh and  Buffalo this week.  The only game I truly worry about are the Patriots.  Please LAR, please put a stake in their heart Thursday night.  The Patriots are playing way above their weight class right now with a roster full of no names.  Kill 'em.  Kill 'em now.

I’m most worried about the pats game too.  They were missing several key players in our first game and should’ve won, if not for Zimmers heroics

I've said it all along the biggest win of the season was the victory over the Pats*.  Some may not realize that as a signature win but it was.  And it is coming into light how significant that victory is, if the Bills had lost the whole dynamics of the season change.  The Bills at 8-4 would have a slim lead over the 7-5 Pats* and still have to play them again (and then would lose the tiebreaker if they lost to them).  The wild card would also be tenuous.

 

I agree, lets have the Pats* lose to the Rams and be done with them.  And then even root the Pats to beat Miami.

You can watch him struggle to keep moving the goal posts every time JWill makes a point. He goes all the way around and comes back with "Yeah, but if Newton holds the ball in the other hand they lose that game". So what? He didnt! And we won! Could make the same excuse for the Bills on the Hail Murray. It's ridiculous. Just say they are playing very good ball!

 

Those kinds of "ifs" are so ridiculous.  Yeah, and what about if Davis hangs onto a fairly easy TD catch on the Bills drive before that?

 

People did the same thing w/ the Rams game.  "If the Bills didn't get bailed out by that PI call!"  Meanwhile, the refs gave the Rams a phantom INT earlier in the game that completely changed momentum.

 

Parcells was right - you are what your record says you are.

its paining him for sure.

Nick Wright was on FS1 this morning claiming Mayfield was a better qb than Allen at this point. Thats startling.

Yeah Nick Wright was adamant that Browns > Bills and Baker>Josh Allen!  Big WTF moment for me for sure.  I am not sure the national media knew how bad Josh was hurt in Raiders game and how that affected KC, NE, TN  and Jets games.  

 

Wright is like the guy at the dinner party who takes a contrarian position to everyone else and makes it known that he will die on that hill.  Usually when I move into another room or go outside.

I've been watching Edelman for years, asking myself how in the hell he gets as wide open as he does.

I've really warmed up to Daboll. Probably because the announcers were gushing over him all game. But as impressive as Josh Allen has looked, the plays always look there to be made.. all season.

 

Rushing may not be his forte but Daboll and JA can pick apart a man or zone coverage equally well it seems

[Logic]

I re-watched the game and came away even MORE impressed with Allen.

Why? Because he was making off-schedule plays just as regularly and effectively as on-schedule plays. He ran the offense with command, poise, and precision, and on the few occasions where the 49ers called the exact right play and/or had him stopped dead to rights, he just rolled out and made something happen. He did this again and again and again. Must be very demoralizing for the defense.

The smoothness/efficiency with which he ran the offense when things went right on a given play, combined with his effectiveness in improvising time and time again when things DIDN'T go right, made me feel that this was his best game of the season. The caliber of opponent and opposing defensive coordinator and the late season, primetime slot add to the impressiveness of his game.

32/40 for 375 and 4 TDs isn't just a good game. It's an absolutely AMAZING game, and it came against a good defense in a big spot. If you have the chance to re-watch the game, I suggest you do it. It's a real pleasure.

Very, very optimistic about the present and future of Josh Allen after that game.
