  1. 1. Is Josh Allen bailing out of more clean pockets than he has the last few years?

    • Yes, he has more frequently been pulling the ball down and escaping when he doesn't need to

    • Meh, it's been about the same as in the last few years

    • No, he's been hanging in the pocket more than he has in years past

Josh has resembled a QB with slow eyes in the pocket,  and add some inaccuracy to that it's a recipe for some bad games.   I think he should run more and make plays while scrambling.  That's when he is great.  Standing there scanning the field and passing from the pocket is not his best attribute imo.

Josh is able to stand in the pocket and scan the field effectively, but our guards and centers haven't been performing well, and our wide receivers are struggling to get open. As a result, Josh has missed open receivers and made some bad throws. It seems like he's having trouble finding his rhythm.

Josh’s injuries have impacted his pocket presence. Also credit the Baltimore and Houston defenses for effectively pressuring Josh the last two games, and beating him up even more. The faintest pressure is causing him to move in the pocket; even when he hasn’t had to. That combined with some hesitancy to run (due to injury I think) has resulted in poorly thrown passes and more incompletions than we used to seeing. Of course the new receiving line up plays a part in the dynamics of pressure and a scrambling qb. If they don’t do what they are supposed to Josh doesn’t get receivers coming back to the ball or he hits them in the helmet.

Once again, stopping Josh Allen and the Bills is like everyone's Super Bowl.  Baltimore admitted as such saying it was like an AFC title game atmosphere.  Teams want to stop Josh, hit him and hurt him.  They won't come out and say the "hurt" part but they do.
