Brand J Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 8 minutes ago, DapperCam said: Regardless of fault, it was still talked about a large portion of the week in the sports media because Allen is held to some ridiculous standard. Doubt the Flowers miss even gets mentioned past tomorrow morning. Media does love them some Lamar and I laugh when I hear “Josh Allen isn’t criticized as much as Jackson.” 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 11 minutes ago, NoSaint said: if nothing else settle Lamar down knowing he can’t scramble on that first play. the chaos doesn’t benefit him as a passer, just as a runner. Slow it down and get everyone synced up. And of course he ends up burning up so much time on the play that they never had a shot at getting 4 downs anyways.

I know everybody hates the phrase, but the Chiefs are the kings of playing "complementary football." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.E. Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 3 minutes ago, Mark Vader said: I would not be shocked if the overwhelming majority members of the media would pick Jackson to be their QB over Allen. They would, but I would guess that if you did a blind poll of GMs, Allen would be the pick for 95-100% of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The players would pick Lamar, but that has nothing to do with on the field things. He negotiated the biggest QB contract in history without an agent. That has to go a long way.

Fair enough, but if we did a redraft of the 2018 Draft, Allen would go to the Browns and Lamar to the Giants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really depends what portion of the media we’re talking about. I think most of the film junkie types prefer Allen. First Take type debate people are more mixed. At any rate, I think these two are pretty firmly the next tier after Mahomes right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generic_Bills_Fan Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 (edited) 14 minutes ago, Low Positive said: Nobody here likes to mention that one. That's a call that they don't usually make. But then again, they picked up that flag in NE so I guess it all evened out. Yea we had a bunch of good officiating luck late in games but also a bunch of offsetting bad luck in others lol. The chiefs don’t seem to have that offsetting negative stuff which is what made that play you’re talking about so jarring. we got absolutely robbed against Philly that might’ve been the most suspiciously officiated game of the year Edited September 6 by Generic_Bills_Fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Success Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 As a passer, Jackson isn't at the level of Mahomes & Allen. Not really close, even. But man, that guy is REALLY hard to bring down in the pocket, and when he spots a running lane, he's through it in a flash. So fun to watch. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cray51 Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 - Flowers at the point of the throw (BTW, Lamar bailed the pocket here when he didnt need to, forcing a tighter throwing angle and bringing pressure into his face) - Flowers looking back at the pass I'm not trying to be overly harsh here, but Lamar made BAD mistakes here. 1) He bailed the pocket when he didnt need to and put a Chiefs player into his face 2) Assumes his WR who just created separation is going to immediately sit flat on that white line on the left side of the E after coming out of the break at full speed 3) Doesn't give his guy any lead on the throw since there are no Chiefs players within 15 feet of the right side That's bad QB play. I dont care who you are, that's awful. blame Flowers for not sitting on his route, but that's being incredibly generous to the QB making several bad moves in short order. Combine that with a) Overthrowing Bateman forcing the catch in bounds and b) not spiking immediately after... There is a reason some QBs always win close games and some lose them - these are the things you look at as the deciding factors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Blitz Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 (edited) In reality burning 2 timeouts in the 3rd quarter cost them the game. If McD had pulled that I’m very sure I know what the talk would be here - deservedly so. Edited September 6 by Big Blitz 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh - in truth, they probably gave us a 3rd rounder for free. That won't be the national narrative if Worthy really pans out, but it's probably the reality.

Norcalbillsfan Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 My take aways: pros: -Bills have a better o line than the ravens -Cook can do more with the opportunities hill got on dumpoffs -likely ate up the chiefs, and Kincaid is better -josh would complete at least 1 of the 5 misses from lamar tonight and change the game. - kelce Henry and andrews looked slow - it was never in question for me but josh is CLEARLY better than lamar - bills are much more dynamic at wr than ravens - monken continues to underutilize Lamar's strengths and so far Henry's as well Cons: - chiefs have speed - rice ate up the LBs - andy Reid is still an offensive genius - we have to listen to everyone say the bills gave the chiefs the next tyreek hill - Araiza had a perfect punt - chiefs probably going to give up the 30 on kickoff all year, no chance for returns. - chiefs back up TEs look really solid - chiefs still seem to magically get favorable penalties at favorable moments 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That won't be the national narrative if Worthy really pans out, but it's probably the reality. Exactly. The Chiefs would have traded up with the Cowboys or Ravens there to take him. They just needed to get above SF. But as I said before, it's easy for Beane because he doesn't interact with people on the football internet.

The players do pick routinely Lamar over Allen in these polls, and it's because of an element that no one really wants to talk about. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
