The Josh Allen Performance Thread

[KeLLy1278]

Erratic throws especially in big spots.  I’m not sure if he was concussed recently but he is make extremely poor decisions.  The pick to lose the game vS the Vikes was a poor decision and a piss poor throw well behind the intended receiver.  
 

At this point.. he could be the best and the worst QB in football from one drive to the next and that’s not a recipe for winning big games.  The concentration just isn’t there.

If he is injured then taking a week off is not outrageous.

I think hes having girlfriend troubles

I’d be more worried about Benford right now. #47 took 2 awful penalties that kept extending Vikes drives and also missed the Cook tackle on his long TD. Our secondary needs Tre back asap.

The Offense relies too much on him.

What do you base that on, other than nothing?

You're more worried about Benford than Allen?

There is some blame to go around but Josh has brain freezes in big spots.. you can only hope that this will pass but right now it’s reoccurring.  I can’t explain his decision making.  His throws have been off as well.

I should have included the secondary overall. Not really their fault given the injuries, but we were exposed today against the pass. Cousins on fire?!

He’s definitely missing throws he made the first 6 games in his sleep. 

[Straight Hucklebuck]

It’s a shame, because he made a ton of vintage plays today.

 

But he’s become a rookie again in the Red Zone.

 

Its to the point here where you have to load up in the I and just run the ball 3 times and take the FG. He’s been absolutely awful.

No… Allen is the #1 issue on this team.  
 

Injuries, you’d think, will even out at some point.  
 

If Allen doesn’t stop throwing picks and refusing to take easy stuff .. especially in big moments, this team goes nowhere. 

[bobobonators]

Theres a lot of blame to go around. Things aren’t going our way at the moment. We are shooting ourselves in the foot and opposing teams are making miracle (literally) plays vs us. We are in a funk. We need to play a FULL 60 minutes of football. We haven’t done that since week 6

[JaCrispy]

Josh Allen with 3 turnovers in the ENDZONE!!!

Go figure.....a team relies too much on their Franchise QB.  Thank god the Chiefs don't rely so much on Mahomes.....

IN MY OPINION IM 100% CONVINCED JOSH IS SHAKING OF A CONCUSSION.  all this started after a nasty hit. his play went to poo instant lightswitch. threw some justin fields type pics.

 

more supporting signs: Josh missed time this week for his elbow. Well he threw the longest pass in 5 years right after... takes several days off, gamesmanship vibes with McD comments. the twitter acct, hiding Josh.

 

back to the elbow... he mightve been sore but his arm seemed 100% fine. seems like a real injury, but mild, and easy enough to pin as his injury.  looked great through 3 quarters. takes some hits, dishes out a few, throwing a-typical picks. almost like he reaggravated it and isnt at 100%

 

 

this game is 2020 arizona or 2021 tampa. pumped to see us build on today. that young defense played above its ceiling with all the injuries. proud of em.... coaching decisions today, not so much. Dorsey will learn. Frazier wont.

This was a nasty loss today.. Allen has a tendency to go for hero throws on too many downs.  When it works everyone fawns all over it but forcing the football over and over.. it’s the gunslinger syndrome, and it leads to erratic play.  He threw into double coverage and behind the intended receiver to boot.  It may be adrenaline.. I dunno if he gets too amped or what but you have to keep a level head in moments like these.  It’s what all the great ones have.

How many times is their quarterback the leading passer and rusher.

Something happened during the bye week.

 

It's like he came back as a different guy.

 

You could probably say the same thing about the Defense, but Josh forcing the ball like he has been the last several weeks just wasn't happening before.

 

I don't know if he's cracking under the pressure of MVP or SB talk or what, but something has changed.

[Success]

It feels like hero ball all over again.  He had been gaining mastery over that.

 

2 weeks isn't quite a trend yet.  We have to be all kinds of efficient over the next month+, and get back in the driver's seat.
