Captain_Quint Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 We live and die by the sword (allen). And I'm ok with that. Same way the Packers did it with Favre. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given our strengths in other areas, I could make the case that their teams are even more “singularly dependent” on them. No. Bengals have arguably the best WR trio in the league and revamped their OL in free agency. Chiefs have a top 5 OL in the league and, after losing Hill, added four quality WRs.

I totally agree. There's a happy medium between bombs away and checkdown Josh. He accomplished that at SoFi. Now he needs to dial it up again Sunday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVERY team with a franchise QB is “singularly dependent” on them. Great receivers and great OLs just can’t do much without them. Josh is not unique in that regard in the least. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Ok, so i normally don't read much coverage (it's all so tiresome) but this week I have been. what is strange to me is how all the analysis is literally 95% plus on the bills, with i'd say 70% of commentary being bills negative cinci positive. even the athletic (who i hold to a higher standard because i pay for them, but frankly are the same dorks and morons who to do sports reporting for ESPN) went on about how allen turns the ball over, how the bills BARELY beat a division rival with a back up qb at home, and how the bengals are on an 8 game win streak. it's shocking that the irony is totally lost. the bengals barely beat a division rival at home, w a back up qb, and they played badly and needed a huge fluke to win. allen and the bills have absolutely turned the ball over too much in the past 3 games (games 6 through 8 of their current win streak) at 3 times a game, but the fact that they are still winning essentially tells us they are so good that opponents need them to make mistakes to have a chance (a chance all of them failed to capitalize on). i think the bills d is rounding into perfect form (except no von, which would make us all time good) and the O is playing with a total green light. beaz and brown getting on page and us running the ball a bit more by design will happen over the next 3 games, and its gonna be something to watch. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lastly, the point isn't about what would happen taking a great QB away from a team. The point is about investing and adding resources around the great QB to maximize his ability and attempt to compensate for his occasional off day. Everyone knows what (typically) happens to teams when they lose a starting QB. That point is worthless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jletha Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 I think Josh needs to chill out when up in the 3rd quarter and you want to bleed some clock (Ben mentions this possession) but otherwise I will ride with his play every time. To me it is so obviously deliberate that Josh and Ken decided together to try to attack downfield, I dont think its just Josh. It has been an emphasis since Chi and continued into NE and then MIA. I expect to see a few against Cincy as well but I also expect to see a more balanced offense than we saw last week because I dont expect as many blitzes from Cincy AND I also expect more designed Josh runs.

I merely pointed out that other teams are “singularly dependent” on their QBs as well. If you were gonna make a different point about building the pieces around him, then perhaps you should have been more articulate in making it in the first place. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His inaccuracy and careless/reckless tendencies can't sustain winning particularly in the post-season. He needs talent/scheme built around him to maximize his athleticism and throwing ability (which on its face are elite). Beane's recent decisions regarding the OL and offensive skill positions have failed Allen. Just f'ing WoW = disgusting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have one of the worst run games in the league. Mixon, superior to our back averages much less ypc than all of our RBs. Terrible OL play. They revamped their OL like we revamped our DL with butler and Addison. Cappa is their only decent OL addition. Even La’el Collins was below average Their offense hasn’t been dominant even with Burrow, the leagues best WR unit, 2 good RBs and a solid TE. Scoring less ppg than Goff and dak led offenses.

Beast Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Allen was correct by going deep often against Miami. He had open guys. He just missed a couple times and one was dropped. I want Allen to take deep shots when the guys are open. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
