Washington Post feature on Josh Allen

[Ray Stonada]

“At 28, Allen has mastered the delicate art of being both the Man and one of the guys.”

So true and so proud of this guy.

Our ex-QB organized the workouts, he is Denver's QB coach and a true asset to team.

 

I do not know what military-grade passes are but is it related to friendly fire which has killed large number of military?

 

Author made attempt writing too persuasive rather than making it expository.

 

Other than that I agree with it.

That’s modern journalism

I think the maturity we have seen from Josh this year has been really impressive. I'm not sure it has always been a strength of his, but the past year we have really seen that growth.

Agree!

Josh is a remarkable person.
 

If I had a son, I’d want him to be rich like Josh.
 

Hopefully, he’d not have a personality like Mahomes or Rodgers.

4 years too late. 
 

Maybe in the 2028 season they’ll have an article on how he’s actually not that turnover prone.

"throws military-grade passes"? zero idea what that actually means lol.

Some times I wish we could win a Super Bowl just for him.

That's what makes Josh so incredibly down to earth.  He wants nothing more than to win one for us.  It's not about himself.  He's about as genuine and sincere a human being as you're ever going to meet. My son got to meet him in the hospitality tent at this last American Century tournament in Tahoe.  He couldn't have been nicer and more friendly. He treated my son (a stranger) like his best friend.  I'm telling you, Josh is one special person beyond our imagination.

Google AI told me:

 

"Military grade" is a marketing term used to describe a product that is durable, tough, and efficient, and is often associated with the United States military."

 

I'd say that definition fits Josh Allen's passing game.

 

I suspect that Josh was his usual self during McDermott and Beane's pre-draft interview, he probably knocked the ball out of the park. McDermott and Beane knew they had their man.

It's bad writing is what it is.

[extrahammer]

The article was good, but it felt like something that should have been written a few years ago. Allen is arguably the best QB in the NFL.

Some excerpts:

 

In ways both obvious and unseen, Allen epitomizes what it means to be an NFL franchise quarterback. He throws military-grade passes and scrambles like a hurricane. He also organizes remote offseason workouts, calls players-only strategy sessions, picks up the tab at celebratory dinners, makes post-practice tee times and hosted the team’s Halloween party. At 28, Allen has mastered the delicate art of being both The Man and one of the guys.

 

 

Knox said. “I don’t know anyone else that can do it like he does. I can’t imagine the type of pressure and stress he has to deal with. The way he does it is just mind-blowing. He hasn’t changed one bit in terms of just being a good dude. I don’t know how that’s possible with what he has to deal with.

 

Each week during offseason practices, Allen took a new trio of teammates out for rounds of golf, his offseason obsession. He made intentional choices to bridge different ages and positions — one nine-hole round included Shakir, backup quarterback Shane Buechele and third-year linebacker Terrel Bernard.

 

 

He has received extensive criticism for his interceptions and countless chances to explain them away, to snap just once and fault a wideout’s mistake. He has not done it.

“We all know guys, even when they don’t directly point fingers, you read between the lines,” Beane said. “Josh never even gives you anything between the lines.

 

 

 

 

When he wins multiple Lombardi’s he will have the city named after him.  Jim Kelly was a great QB with a very good team around him. Allen is a better QB with a lessor team around him.

I was thinking the same thing, Bill. For whatever reason, he seems to have gotten it together this year. His mental game, all of it.

 

He seems a different guy this year from the guy he was on the Bussin' with the Boys podcast a year or two back. This year, though, he's more impressive than ever. I've always put him as maybe second-best in the league. This year he might be taking a step up.
