I still think the Bills are the cream of the crop in the AFC and I think Josh Allen is the best QB in the AFC. But the bad weather simply does not bode well. I totally agree that a couple of the INTs were not necessarily on Josh yesterday. I also think that early drops were a factor. I'd just prefer nicer weather once the tournament starts. Expand Allen needs MORE bad weather games. He is going to have to learn to deal with them. He isn't going to just be lucky and never play another bad weather game in January. He needs to get to the point that it is a strength rather than a weakness. Quote

JimmyNoodles Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 During last nights game they showed a graphic that for the entire league the home-away record was basically 50-50 for the past 2 years. I thought that was interesting as obviously not supporting a home field advantage. However, can’t say playoffs would be the same. Plus, getting the one seed means one less game and that means playing at home all the way. On a separate note, I have to say that this team does not seem to embrace the cold like the old teams from the Super Bowl era. Quote

The way Josh Allen plays in inclement weather will NOT win very many playoff games. Expand So look at these games in bad weather and tell us how the opposing QB did? If the weather is so bad that it limits the passing game then the Bills need to run, stop the run, and win the ST part of the game. Just like any other championship caliber team would have to do. It is up to Beane and McD to build that team, not Josh. Josh had his worst passing game (statistically) yesterday, yet he was the primary reason they won. 1 1 Quote

Although I can see your point about Josh not playing as well in inclement weather it's the D that concerns me. They've proven all season stopping the run is problematic. In bad weather it only gets worse as it favors the more proficient running team (Indy,NE). Is it a coincidence Devon and Josh ran all over Atl yesterday in the snow? So to me weather is a factor, but not because of Josh's play. It's our D's inability to consistently stop the run which puts more emphasis on Josh to perform.

Of all of those places, I think Orchard Park is the least likely to have decent weather. It could all end up being moot. I realize that Buffalo's weather isn't nearly as bad as it's made out to be (with regard to playing football). All I'm saying is that Josh Allen is better when the weather is decent. Clearly, this is very upsetting to many, many people (not you). Quote
