Trent Dilfer Brett Favre who most reminds him of himself

[transient]

I can't find it, but I swear there was a quote from Steve Young where he basically said Allen runs like he would have if he was built like Allen is.

Difference is Josh can either run by you or over you. Young was good but never ran over people.

Young was faster though - 4.55 40 time, which back in the early 80s was blazing.

Not so sure about that.  As a rookie, Josh hit in the 21 MPH range on one run, which is where WRs, RBs and CBs are.

Young was more of a finesse runner.  Josh is physical as *****, with a ridiculous stiff arm, and willingness to run guys over.  Actually reminds me of Jim Kelly, style-wise, although Kelly was not nearly the athlete Josh is.

 

Yes Jim like Farve were not QBs but football players.

I heard that in an interview.  Young seems to be a big Allen fan and has been sounding board for Allen.

He's featured pretty prominently in this video and both he and Josh compare themselves to the other:

Looks like Josh to me 

 

People forgot Steve wasn't physically as built as Josh but he was a tough runner when he wanted
