TrueBlueGED Posted September 18, 2019 Report Posted September 18, 2019 I'm as encouraged by Allen's progress as I am disheartened by the Sabres' center spine. I certainly think he has farther to go than many Bills fans, but he's looking like at least an NFL starter, which is considerably better than I expected.
nfreeman Posted September 18, 2019 Report Posted September 18, 2019 But this was better. (at about 1:55)

I think it might be the best quarterback play I've ever seen a Bills quarterback make. Happy to receive reminders if I'm missing some. Terrific play by the young QB, for sure. I am wondering why Beasley doesn’t cut off his route to give a hot read. I am also chuckling a bit, realizing lotsa people here never saw Kelly in his prime. Mind you, Kelly probably doesn’t make *that* throw, but man alive — there are stoopid highlights aplenty.
Neo Posted September 18, 2019 Report Posted September 18, 2019 I’m all in on ol’ Josh, but I need to see him drop a linebacker or DB after an interception before I out him on Mt. Kelly. The Bills are fun, culture is real, and the McClappy posts have run their course. 2

Mind you, Kelly probably doesn’t make *that* throw, but man alive — there are stoopid highlights aplenty. Oh for sure, I don't mean to claim it's the best play a Bills QB has made. But I started watching the year that Holcomb lost the job to Losman. So it's likely the best play by a Bills QB I've ever seen made I meant "live with my own two eyes" even though I didn't say it Edited September 18, 2019 by Randall Flagg 1

It bummed me out because it inflates those stats and I think it ended our streak of holding passers under 190 passing yards, which was by far the longest of every team since the legion of boom

Randall Flagg Posted September 18, 2019 Report Posted September 18, 2019 Just now, TrueBlueGED said: I have too much bouncing around in my head to remember specifics, but Losman had some truly phenomenal passes to Evans. Remember that game in Houston with the back-to-back 83 yard TD passes to #83? I loved Lee Evans so much as a kid And then we won with seconds left in the fourth quarter on a back-of-the-end-zone strike to #81. I have no idea if that was James Hardy or Peerless Price's brief second stint here
Randall Flagg Posted September 18, 2019 Report Posted September 18, 2019 Through two weeks, according to PFF, Josh Allen has the best adjusted completion percentage while under pressure of any QB in the NFL (this stat is completion percentage while ignoring throwaways, spikes, receiver drops, or throws where the QB is hit during the motion)

I'm not complaining, mind you. My biggest concern coming into this season is that he'd go all Tyrod and turn every pass play into a QB scramble. The difference in QB sense this year compared to last is already very apparent. Like Blue says, he looks like an NFL starter. But as he fine tunes his game he will likely become much more than *just* a starter.
Randall Flagg Posted September 18, 2019 Report Posted September 18, 2019 Update to the fun Metlife stat: This season, Allen has as many wins in Metlife Stadium as Eli and Darnold do combined since the start of LAST season ie the Jets and Giants SUK 1

If he had given us the split, sure whatever but really? The Jets were going to sweep Buffalo... lol. Also they aren't winning 1 game against the Patriots.
