—Allen's film shows poor decisions and errant passes where the ball gets away from him.

—His subpar completion percentage (56 percent) can be attributed to poor decisions, passes thrown too hard, drops and plain misses.

—When Allen misses, he tends to miss big and often throws high on crossing routes.

—His footwork needs to be refined so that he's stepping into throws and aligning his lower body with his shoulders—an issue a lot of "arm" throwers have.

—He leaves a clean pocket too often (not trusting his offensive line) and will extend plays instead of throwing the ball away, which can lead to lost yards.

Allen is an extremely talented, highly-motivated kid, but he’s probably not prepared for what the NFL is going to do with him.

the team is 3-3 in playoffs under Clappy McBean era,  and 5 out of 6 have been with Josh

 

with all wins at home, and all losses on the road (Jax game was Tyrod not Josh as qb ) , the next step...is road game, need I say more, its a process from what I hear...

But that applies to dozens of QB’s

I’d like to see a nice, double digit come from behind victory. We almost got that with the Bucs game. Aside from that, just the ice water, clutch gene that Jordan and Brady seem to have. It’s a bit of recency bias because he had those throws last year against the Rams, Dolphins, & Cards, but this year he’s oh-fer.

Sometimes he tucks the ball away when running, sometimes not.

I feel like he's basing it on what's around him now, when he's got open space he just goes as fast as he can but as soon as defenders are closing in he tucks it up.

He did that against the Jets two years ago.

A few tidbits that Nick Wright certainly will bring up:

  • 0-2 on the road in the playoffs. 
  • 0-2 vs 2017 NFL QB class in playoffs.
  • 0-1 vs this era's Brady (Mahomes) in playoffs
  • Has never had a higher completion % in a game vs Mahomes
  • Has never completed over 58.33% of his passes in a game vs Chiefs

Are you talking about the pass to John Brown along the sideline? I don’t recall the Bills being down by double digits in that one.

Down 16-3 going into the 4th and then we dropped 14 on them.

Stand corrected! Looking back on that game I see we actually trailed 0-16. Don’t know how that escaped me.

He has to beat Mahomes this weekend for some people.  
 

He still has his detractors.  Those detractors no longer doubt his talent/ability, but now doubt his consistency…

 

ie., they know Mahomes will show up Sunday Night.  Are unsure if Allen will.

I think the ceiling has been shown, he’s overcome concerns about accuracy, he’s well past concerns about his low numbers production in college.

 

I would say the one remaining concern is can he do it game after game? That’s the only question he needs to answer.

 

When he’s on, he is unstoppable. And this season he has more almost cockiness. At times he’s not humble little try-hard Josh and I like it.
