I do agree with @MSURacerDT55 that he could be a bit of a tease throughout his career though, and I say that as a pretty big fan of Allen overall. I don't think he'll just never play like Hack...that is too low of a floor to me. Locker makes sense, but I've also used Josh Freeman (without the other issues) as comparable floor, which I think is fair. I honestly just don't think it's possible to be a bottom 10 pick and bottom out as badly as Hack has in his career if only because Allen will at some point get into a huddle in a real game lol In Hack's defense. He does play on the Jets. Teams can ruin QB's, look no further then what the Texans did with David Carr. And with Hack, I don't think he ever really got the chance to get started and be with a team that could correct his mistakes. So bad O-Line play at Penn St then in New York. Hopefully Darnold breaks the norm there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groink Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 He'll be starting the season most likely. I guess we'll see what he can do soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks comfortable out there and isn't afraid of the moment, but he's slow processing and he's having to play with some horrific talent for his skill set. He needs to play behind a good OL and RB and play action teams and take big shots. The Bills run game and OL is a freaking joke and every QB that's been back there is running for their lives trying to throw it to blanketed WR's. He's going to be good methinks. It's still too small of a sample size to tell one way or another right now, but I really liked him before the draft and I don't think he's done anything that screams BUST to me yet.

BrownLeader Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Emblematic of Josh Allen as a prospect. The guy with one of the biggest arms to ever enter the league serves up an underthrown duck on the game winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realize that's a ~50 yard throw with him falling across his body right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of all the Allen throws you can cherry pick from you choose the one where he makes an insane play and the receiver drops a gimme? C'mon bro! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon bro! He can throw it 80 yds. And he had a running start. It was such a bad ball it surprised Clay and he had to dive back to get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen admitted it should have been a better throw, but it hit Clay in the hands and wth was Clay doing in the back of the endzone when all you need is a first down and your QB is scrambling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broncofan Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I wish NextGen Stats put up a link - according to NFL Network Post-Game wrap-up on Sunday night, Allen put up 814 yards of distance travelled running in the game last week. 814 yards lol. I mean, there's no denying the physical talent is special. Just a case of him picking up on the accuracy/placement/read progression & D recognition part...which again, are where special physical talents fail. But there's been some progress on those fronts. Not much, but enough I'm sure to let the Bills fanbase have hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
