Josh Allen Complaints

He should absolutely complain... that Judon hit is a flag 95% of the time this year.  

 

But for the love of God, STOP TRYING TO DRAW DEFENSES OFFSIDE

 

Either we jump, or they jump and we think it's a free play when it's not.  

 

It cracks me up when he’s barking trying to get defenders to jump and they don’t.  Then he looks around like he doesn’t know what to do and they call a timeout.

 

 I don’t know what it was about EJ Manuel but he was good at it.

It’s not a team thing, it’s a resume thing. Why Mahomes gets the calls now just like Brady and Rogers.

Probably, though the original tuck rule thing eons ago happened without much resume, no?

[SoCal Deek]

Or…Josh could just make the play at the end of these close games, win and get off the field!

Except it was the right call. People forget that. It was a God awful rule! But the ref got the call right.

Ahh, I'm not up for debating, especially when the facts are not helpful to my cause in this case. You're a decent sort, considering by some curse of birth or circumstance you ended up rooting for the evil empire. Nothing you can say will convince me the zebras aren't habitually inclined to help out certain fellas and teams. It isn't simply earned points for excellence, though I grant that plays a role.

Oh the refs can be horrid at times.. and yes I saw many a favorable call during the Brady/BB years.. But I bet the Bills are now getting their fair share of favorable calls too. (I don’t see a ton of their games but even Monday they got a few close to questionable calls)

If one of our players came down with weight on any QB in the league there would be a 15 yd penalty.

 

It happened twice in the Pats game to him with no call.

If you don't see anyone in front of you,  run that way. Don't try and do a spin-o-Rama, a la Mahomes.

I don't know about you but I,m 100% confident that if Allen SAW that no one was in front of him he would have run there.  Again the expectations surrounding what Allen can and can't do under these circumstances are insane.  He's not a Marvel Movie Super Hero.

Is just me who feels this way, or do others feel that Josh is complaining to the refs a little too much when he is hit?

The Monday night game was not a good look for Josh. The complaints were on every hit, and at some point, the refs may not give him a roughing call when he really deserves it.  

 

 

Well, NOT complaining wasn’t getting him anywhere so……….

It doesn’t matter if he complains or not…don’t you know the refs and the NFL have it out for the Bills?  At least that is what the tin foil hat wearing people here will tell you…especially when the Bills lose. 

 

 

What’s wrong with my tin foil hat?

A few. That loss was mainly on play execution. The win was there to be taken. I'm salty about the usual BB genius crap immediately forthcoming from lazy commentators. Easily could have gone the other way. From a Bills' perspective, I can only hope there is a successful effort in the offseason to upgrade the oline significantly. Size at rb and wr wouldn't be bad either.

Size and strength matters playing smash mouth football.  Boxing defenders out with bigger size vs speed/finesse is a better fit for Allens lower flying laser shots IMO. Mixture of the two would be ideal IMO. Bills need a Dome in my humble opinion. 

 

Great posting Dr. Who

The Judon hit where he flattens him falling on top with his full weight, always gets called for veteran QBs. These refs are so unpredictable and many would say,vindictive (Tony Corrente) Why not complain, it can't hurt.

He’s paid like one.

I did roll my eyes when he was crying to aref before he even landed on the ground after a clean hit

Correct. Spencer Brown was 5 yards downfield blocking when the handoff was made. It was just another messed up play.

Because guys moved but didn't actually jump. In both the Miami and NE games, guys shifted but never crossed. 

 

We got burned on it in the Pitt game too.  Just run the freskin' play that was called.
