It is confusing. I think 5 fumbles is ok for the way Josh plays. Plus 1 was a weak fumble vs the Vikings.

 

 

Agreed. I can live with 5 lost fumbles for all the good he brings.

I'll say it. 

Allen is great.  I'm happy we have him,  but if he didn't miss 7 quarters of play,  we'd be way happier.

7 quarters of play?

The Cincy game and the other 3 quarter's he sat

That's 7 quarters of no stats

His numbers from last year to this are remarkably consistent , actually. They’re practically identical.

Yep.  With 7 less quarters played

Did he sit any quarters last year ? I remember some pretty big leads

Maybe 2 or 3 total

I love you, Josh Allen!

I thought he had an outstanding year. No doubt he would have put up some big #s v cincy. Most of Allen's lost fumbles this year were genuinely QB pressured hits while passing as opposed to goofy running fumbles. 

 

We have to get this guy more YAC and more screens. 

[Man with No Name]

the fumbles don't bother me, outside of the issues with backup centers. he had some oddly terrible INTs this season. hope those go away. 

 

I love you, Josh Allen!

19 turnovers isn't good and we're still 13-3 and potentially 14-3 , this team just finds a way.. 

The D and Allen always seem to bounce back when it matters

It says FR means any fumble by the player that was recovered by him or one of his teammates?

 

That says fumble from anyone on either team recovered by the player

Yeah I think you’re right lol. I don’t know why my brain couldn’t comprehend what it was telling me.

He’s the only reason Bills have a chance. But this season was his worst of the last three. Terrible red zone interceptions and the Minnesota botched snap were really bad. Too much hero ball. Just like today. Take the sack and get 3 points. Even if it is KC or Cinci. Missing out on 4 points is way less worse than coughing up the ball in the red zone.

The "Favre with legs" comparison keeps on proving itself.  Josh will continue to get lots of TDs, turnovers and wins.  Realistically I think he's the most valuable player in the NFL but he'll lose the award more often than not to someone who doesn't give fans the same heart palpitations...and yet the wins are there!

 

I think that just means he recovered 5 of them himself, not that 8 were lost.

Oh he’s better then Farve ever was he’s more John Elway

Last year, across 17 games, as comparison:

4,407 yards

36 passing TD's

15 INT's

763 rushing yards

6 rushing TD's

8 fumbles

 

Astoundingly close or, in some cases, better considering one less game.

 

And the number of dropped balls ...

27. Not sure if that includes today or not.

Third behind the Bucs and Jaguars.

As bright as he is, I can't figure out why he continues to commit so many unforced errors.  Perhaps it's just his supreme confidence because he knows when he's playing well, he's always going to be the best player on the field. 

 

Allen also had arm problems for much of the year.  Early in the year, he was playing lights out and then he injured his elbow.  Hopefully at some point in his career, Allen plays behind a quality offensive line.  More time to throw the ball would help his already impressive stats and perhaps the hero ball would diminish.
