Is Josh Hurt?

He was abysmal in the first quarter.

He was also running for his life.  Pressure up the middle is the worst kind of pressure for any QB.  The interior O line better up its game as today they did not run or pass block well.

I don't get how some fans can watch Josh and not see something is off.  No its not the Pats D, the guy flat sucked today and there is something wrong.  It has been for awhile and it's getting worse.  

 

Diggs had all but disappeared.  Drops, not exploding off the ball... something is seriously wrong offensively.

It’s not just this game.  He’s been off the past few weeks at least.  I’d argue it’s been most of the season.  But it’s tough to know.  

 

It goes back to last season.

I agree,back to the green bay game.  He needs an entirely new offensive scheme and a couple WR's worth a damn.

The whole passing offense has looked off for weeks.

With Diggs playing as an average WR are you surprised?  Without Diggs in elite mode what are we left with?  We don't have blazing speed and our WR's don't make very many great catches.  Did people happen to see OBJ's catch today against the Dolphins?

Signing Higgins should be Beane's top priority this offseason

With what money? They can't even keep what they have. Those bad contracts are hitting now.

I know I sound like a broken record but the problem with the Bill's O is that for the last few years it has been treated like the proverbial red headed step child.  The lions share of FA money and draft capitol has flowed to the D.  This past year things started to change with the Bills taking Kincaid (a budding superstar) and Torrenze with the 1st & 2nd picks but in FA the Bills were in serious bargain hunting mode on O and it shows.

 

Look at the Chiefs, as Kelsey, much like Diggs, falls back into average territory and KC's long shot signings haven't panned out Mahomes is looking very ordinary.

Passes that seemed effortless, seem to require him to really put his body into it.

I'm not a QB guru, anyone who is, and watches enough film, how are his mechanics this year?

This is true.

 

Sherfield is what he is - a good blocker and ST guy who can play #3 WR.  That works only if you have a good  #1 and a #2

 

I just watched the guys Lamar Jackson was throwing to and I don’t see either separation or focus/ability to complete the catch from our guys

Sherfield is nowhere near a #3 reciever.  He's a 5 or 6 at best.

Very true. 

 

Beane has lots of work to do and tough decisions to make,

It seems like it's the easy throws too that he struggles with. 7 yard pass to someone wide open he misses. But then makes great pass 15 yards in tight coverage.

[jethro_tull]

He's been off if not affected by something.  

The long ball plays have disappeared for many games....

[FireChans]

Every Josh Allen bad game, he has some new kind of mystery injury. 
 

It’s getting kinda funny at this point.

 

Maybe…. Just maybe….. he had a bad game.

Ya know what I’m tired of seeing… the opposing team, with a scrub QB and average WR, make 1 or 2 amazing pin point perfect, over the shoulder, draped in coverage reception.   Why do our WRs never seem to make these amazing catches?

OL was really disappointing today.  We should come out running. That seems to get the OL established or in a rhythm. We also may need a Moree replacement next year. 

[JerseyBills]

not sure but Allen looked awful all day but that was Belichecks and NE SB to spoil our playoff hopes

[ChrisWatson#21]

If you payed attention to last week’s broadcast during the replay of Davis touchdown catch Collinsworth made a reference to Josh playing with a bad shoulder.  He has been playing through pain for a while.  I suspect it was a hit in the Giants game.
