With Josh Allen you have to cover the entire field - Next Gen Stats says so

@NextGenStats

Josh Allen was 0.3 yards from the sideline on this 8-yard TD pass, the 2nd-closest to the sideline on a completion in the NGS era. Since 2016, there have been four completions with a release within a yard of the sideline; Allen has three of them. #BUFvsNE | Powered by

yep they pulled it off for sure.   heck of a risky throw, but hey, in the post Micah/Von world we increasingly live by Josh, die by Josh as the season goes on.   that is the world we live in.  I'll take it.

When I see all the coverage from that play last weekend I sorta shrug and think people should see what he did to the Jets at the end of last year.  Stiff arming Quinen Williams and then shrugging off his brother to throw to diggs is still the most bonkers play I have ever seen a QB make.

It was almost comical

Wonder how many games Allen will lead this stat by when he retires.

 

Most 300 yard passing games with 50+ yards rushing.  Currently 2nd only to Steve Young who had 8 such games.

 

[Jerome007]

Since day 1, what I like most about Josh is that 3rd & 5 or 3rd & 15, who cares. Same stuff basically. Look at how 90% of the time, other teams run a draw play on 3rd & 12+. Bills sling it, and it often pays off.

[Big Turk]

Allen is also the winningest QB in Bills history that has any significant starts for us.  

 

Allen .658

Kelly .631

Flutie .590

Kemp .574

Taylor .523

So basically everyone else is under 500?

 

I think that part has really been lost the last few years is just how rough it had been for huge stretches of the history. 20 straight loses to the dolphins, something like 15 straight to the Pats, a 17 year playoff drought and just so many heart breaking losses (not just games like 13 seconds, but some of those drought 7-9 seasons had really gut punching things that happened that prevented some pretty talented teams from taking advantage of getting hot at the right time and squeezing into the playoffs. Then who knows, look at the giants and those Mario Williams teams had the line talent to go on a run like that.

 

All that is talked about now is the "Bills Mafia" being crazy and whatever they keep rehashing. Can they please stop rehashing that and start rehashing the pain and anguish please.

This post has absolutely nothing to do with the topic and thanks for a depressing Friday afternoon "refresher" to enlighten everyone how bad the Bills have been in the past.  Our current win streak and current #1 seeding in the AFC be demanded.

 

Brilliant idea, "Start rehashing the pain and anguish".

 

Unreal.

Yeah...the thing that was most frustrating especially during the later drought years is those teams were not actually "bad" for the most part. They had some talent but the issue was they had no real plan in terms of where they wanted to go and how to get there.

 

They'd rarely beat good teams, but even then, it almost defied the law of averages that they wouldn't have snuck into the playoffs at least once just based on luck

At least I didn't bring up no goal right

 

It's relevant though. Have the steelers had a .523 season under Tomlin?

 

I'm just saying the narrative seems to have turned to how great it is to be a Bills fan and yes, getting to watch Josh Allen play for your team is amazing and we are so lucky and it is so fun. 

 

They're portraying bills fans as a quirky die hard bunch. The fact that your 5th highest qb that played meaningful snaps has a .523 winning percentage and just the huge, huge gaps between the qbs on that list other than Kelly and Flutie and Flutie played like two years and that was right before the Brady era shut things down, just like the early Shula era.

 

Yes we have a great time and we put on appearances, but no, deep down we are not ok and that's OK, it's who we are. It's what makes us great as fans, but the re-framing by the national media has been interesting to watch.

There was a defensive holding call on the play and he doesn't throw the ball until the flag was thrown. I think it was less risky throw and more excellent situational awareness to realize even if it's picked it's going to get overturned due to the defensive penalty.

Completely agree, I'd rather them go down slinging than go silently into the night. It will make for some bad moments, but also alot of great ones.

Josh legitimately has a chance to be the GOAT.  Beane just needs to get the right folks around him. 

[Goin Breakdown]

I suppose I could check the Google, but does anyone know who is the 4th?

It's also Josh Allen, they just didn't want the rest of the league to feel bad.

It's become a signature play of Josh Allen

 

Manning had "OmaHA"

Brady had "OmaGOD ref! That's a penalty! Waaahh!"

 

Allen has "OmaGOD HOW DID HE MAKE THAT THROW!"
