So you don't know what you are saying just trolling.

 

 

Anyway, Josh Allen would be the same no matter how many people are at the game.

I agree with you. Good post.

No.  In his third year he is seeing the field and finding himself.  I know enviornments matter, but I dont see how Allen doesnt kill it with OBJ and Landry.  He goes 1 he is where he is now.  Fans no fans.  I really feel like Allen is the last one who gets credit for making himself a guy.  Kobes trainer or shooting coach didnt make Kobe great.  It was Kobe.

I'm wondering if the empty stadiums helped Josh this year.  Maybe helped him change plays, see a little better against a solid backdrop.  Maybe without the crowd he didn't get too hopped up?  Before you ask:  Yes. I am working from home and....no, I don't have anything better to think about.  And, yes, I do need to get a life.

4 hours late and 4 pages in. I haven't read through the responses but I've wondered the same thing.  In particular with regard to getting too hopped up.

I'm not worried about this relatively small number of fans.  I'm a bit more worried about the team being too amped up, due to it being a do or die playoff game.  But I think that happens - especially to younger teams that haven't been through it much.  To me, it seems like usually they get that over-hyped adrenaline worked out after the first couple series.  But there were times in the Houston game last year where Josh looked like he was getting rattled.   I think he's matured significantly since then.  Look at all the prime time games he's shined in of late, even with people talking about how poorly Buffalo's done on Monday night, he just has a calm about him and gets it done.  He'll be fine!

I can see how it's easier to make stuff up. No worries.

To be fair (cue the Letterkenny gifs), I seem to recall something last year along the lines Giuseppe mentioned. Josh getting too hyped in front of the home fans was a thing/talking point/soundbite/something for a bit. At least in my imperfect memory.

If you ask me I think it's a focus and confidence thing. He's always been confident but the addition of Diggs ability and confidence has propelled Allen to believe more and more. The offense going for 4th downs and more points being scored has grown this. 

 

I think its focus aswell because whatever he is doing now his brain is in the right place, consistently making better decisions and executing. Could well be down to the more calming music he mentioned.. I say this aswell because tannehill has been really good the last two seasons and he has mentioned using meditation.

 

If the crowd gets him to the 'amped up' point then it may be a problem, but like other people have said in big games last season with the crowds he turned up and played well. 

 

Pittsburg start this season was the only time he seemed a bit off, always seems to turn it round in games aswell so any blips seem only momentary.

He's played in front of fans this season, Miami, Arizona, etc.. and lit them up.    

 

The fans at the Ralph I expect will help amp up the Bills defense if anything.    I expect them to ball out.

I’m very late to this topic, but I HATE that there will be fans there tomorrow. Why bring the distraction after Josh played near perfectly all season? And while I’m “thrilled” for those 6,500 folks there, it won’t bring any “home field advantage” and will just add to the risk of our players getting covid from Rick from North Tonawanda.

Wow.....

He also played his worst game of the year against KC in an empty stadium - another so-so game vs NE too.  
 

He seemed to play his best game in stadiums with more than 6,700 like Miami and SF (Arizona) abs Denver.  I think he’ll be ok
