Hebert19 Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 22 minutes ago, strive_for_five_guy said: No. Would you have suggested a concussion was affecting his play after the 1st half yesterday? He had the boneheaded INT in the 1st half yesterday, but otherwise looked pretty sharp (two TDs and led the team into FG range in less than a minute). This is whay he's saying. It's lingering concussion impact. If he doesn't take time off and he had one last week he wouldn't be better. 15 minutes ago, DabillsDaBillsDaBills said: Yes, looks like it was this play. 1st & 10 at NYJ 12 (6:24 - 1st) (Shotgun) J.Allen to NYJ 19 for -7 yards (S.Rankins). FUMBLES (S.Rankins), and recovers at NYJ 18. J.Allen sacked at NYJ 14 for -2 yards (sack split by J.Sherwood and K.Alexander). I missed it yesterday, but Josh shakes his head pretty hard after the tackle. It's possible he was looking over to the sideline (or another player) and shaking his head "no" in response to something. It's also possible he has a lingering concussion and got his bell rung. Yup. I have video too. Same thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That pick was SO bad. I couldn’t believe my eyes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boater Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Ugh, if concussion is true. This could go on for weeks. I wonder what his behavior is off the field--there could be signs of a undiagnosed concussion. https://www.cdc.gov/traumaticbraininjury/concussion/symptoms.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloRebound Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 With all the crazy conspiracy theories out there in the world, I actually think there’s something to this. He looked really off yesterday. Slow to process, indecisive and sometimes statuesque in the pocket. The game moves so damn fast. It doesn’t take much to impact your play.

zow2 Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Maybe they will roll Keenum out against Minnesota. You never know. If Josh needs a break to get back healthy it might have to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Josh needs a break to get back healthy it might have to happen. Honestly, from an immediate football perspective I’m more worried about the elbow than the concussion. I will not be surprised to see Keenum next week. 1 minute ago, BuffaloRebound said: With all the crazy conspiracy theories out there in the world, I actually think there’s something to this.

The double-clutching, the awful interceptions, frankly the touch throw to Kumerow that he missed that would have ended the GB game . . . He’s just not right. And I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if he was concussed against GB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royale with Cheese Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Allen has had bad games in every season and it stretches into more than just one game. He will be fine and back to his old ways soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Josh leads the team to two more TDs in the 2nd half as well yesterday and another field goal attempt, the Bills score at least 28, potentially 31, and are we even having this discussion? If Josh was concussed last Sunday as some are theorizing, wouldn’t he have been less sharp in the 1st half yesterday? The real problems are the Bills had trouble with the Jets pass rush and the WRs had trouble getting open against their secondary. I don’t buy the concussion theory.

Too many uncharacteristic decisions. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Processor speed was slower than normal, and just looked like he was playing in fog. Couldn’t see things and diagnose things like is typical.

BarleyNY Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 I’d allow that a concussion is a possibility. But the team’s and NFL’s medical staffs (and probably some others) failed Allen if that was the case. After the Tua fiasco I can’t believe the NFL allowed Allen to continue playing after the head shake - whether or not he was actually concussed.

This happens every year. We were 7-6 at one point last year. In 2020, we had a terrible 3 game stretch against the Chiefs, Titans and Jets. In those 3 games, we scored 4 TD's. In 2019, Eagles killed us, lost to the Browns and Washington stayed with us until late in the 4th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen is a tough SOB and like Favre, is a danger to himself sometimes. Allen is never going to tell you he got his bell rung. He will just say things like I had an off day.

And he sure couldn’t say he thought he was concussed publicly after playing out the game. My surprise is that it didn’t appear that he was even evaluated. If it was a Tua situation where he passed the test, that’s different. But he didn’t get the check. I can’t believe the NFL didn’t give him one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder he had 2 bad passes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he didn't scramble we wouldn't have scored. He was hesitant and other than diggs throw wasn't sharp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
