Allen ignoring defenders last few weeks.


Recommended Posts

Yep.

 

The saddest part is seeing him regress so quickly too. 3 points all half until the final 40 second drive (after another turnover gives them a lead), only 3 points from Josh & the offense off turnovers (compared to the Vikings who scored every time), a redzone INT, and now an overtime INT to lose the game.

 

This is 3 straight weeks with 2 x INT's, bad ones at that. He's rarely taking what the defense gives him, and consistently throwing dangerous passes into double/triple coverage. It's so sad to watch.

Been discussed but most people seem to attack anyone that brings it up but Allen has been horrible at reading defenses. He's not seeing defenders that aren't exactly hidden or disguised. These are rookie level mistakes. 

It's a very concerning trend, since the bye week, everything changed

He is trying to be too aggressive at the wrong time.

Exactly what I said...he could have ran his way into the endzone for us.

 

And even if he didn't he could have dumped it down to Singletary for an easy 8 yards if not a first down...would have made it 3rd and 2.

That throw was unforgivable and Josh is trying to do too much. Just take what the defense is giving you. These offensive coaches have to protect this guy from low percentage throws. The idea is to protect the FG when you’re on the 20 with makeable  throws and QB runs. Two weeks, 4 red zone picks. Very concerning, especially with our inept secondary.

He just can't make that throw in that situation. Just cannot. It's inexcusable for any QB let alone a guy who was playing at an MVP level.

Daboll did a great job working with Allen on this between his 2nd and 3rd seasons.  Not sure what the hell the coaching staff has been doing the last few weeks to help him, but my guess is nothing.
