Allen Post Game Comments

[DraftBoy]

In the postgame news conference, Josh Allen had the following to say per The Buffalo News:

"I hurt our team tonight,” Allen said after the game. “I cost our team tonight. It feels eerily similar to last year, and I hate that it’s the same. I do.”
...
“Trying to force the ball,” Allen said on his turnovers. “Same (stuff), same place, different day.”

He clearly knows what the issue and that it can't happen, but his inability to address it is very concerning. We heard all offseason about his growth and how he was learning from his mistakes from last year. How the UCL injury impacted him more than we knew and the first game out of the shoot is one of his career worst which showed more regression than we ever saw last year.

Yes, he gets credit for taking full responsibility and he's never had an issue with that.

As NYUpstate.com Beat Writer Ryan Talbot wrote on Twitter:

Tonight we'll hear Josh Allen say he needs to be better and that he cost the #Bills the game.

He's said the same thing after bad losses, but he never seems to learn. The words are empty at this point and it's now up to Allen to prove it on the field.

It's just one loss, but…

The reality is that last night was inexcusable and despite Allen knowing what's wrong he can't seem to stop making the same mistakes. It's just one game and we all know how good Allen can be, but this kind of play needs to have accountability for the QB, the Head Coach, the Offensive Coordinator, and the GM. I'm not calling for heads, but that was ****ing embarrassing last night and Pegula needs to be paying attention.

No kidding. Most of us knew what the post-game comments were going to be shortly after halftime. It's like Groundhog Day.

Re: Allen Post Game Comments

i'm gonna say something unpopular. (since it's taboo to criticize Josh Allen to other Bills fans)

but it may be time to look to the future at QB the next draft or two if he can't stop getting out of his own way, or at least find coaching that's gonna hold him accountable because he walks on water to them.
He just isn't learning from his mistakes and I'm getting sick of it. The danger to this, of course is qb purgatory which was most of the drought problem. But something has got to give.

Good arm/athlete, poor QB. Never saw such a me first performance by such a talent. Doesn't look like he works at the craft of being a QB much. He's done. Trade him now (will never happen).

it feels like he put in the work the first 3-4 seasons/offseasons and now is just winging it, hoping for the best. Last night was the final straw for me. He's clearly plateaued/regressing. I'd love to be wrong, but it's time to start looking elsewhere.

STFU Josh. We already knew it. Do something about it dumb ass.

That's crazy. He's a top 5 qb. He's got issues but you can win with him. Plus did we forget his contract.

agree with the last sentence
not so sure about the boldened part anymore. He's going the wrong way, fast.

McD/Dorsey will not/can not win with Allen. Trade Allen now or make a wholesale coaching change now. Neither will happen.

Last night was a franchise soul sucking performance from Allen. Going the wrong way fast while lacking the organizational structure to reverse the course, with what now looks to be, one of the worst contracts in the league.

Re: Allen Post Game Comments

Josh has a problem playing the Jets. Especially in New York. Reminds me of Brady in Miami. I'd rather get Allen's 'favre' game out of the way early than later on in the season. I was more disappointed in our loss against the Steelers 2 years ago. The AFC's big three all fell down in Week 1. Plenty of football left.

Yeah.

How about a trade to New England?

No?

This is really dumb post loss talk.

Re: Allen Post Game Comments

I wish I could see the film and see what he missed or forced, or whether anyone was in fact getting open.

Re: Allen Post Game Comments

He started out disciplined taking what was given.

He has to learn patience let it (THE GAME) come to him.

AND HIS COACH NEEDS TO GO FOR IT ON 4TH AND 2 ON THE OPENING DRIVE.

AND HIS COACH NEEDS TO TAKE A PENALTY INSTEAD OF DECLINING IT AND GIVING THE OPPONENT A VERY MAKABLE 43 YARD FG ..... WHEN ****ING POINTS ARE SO HARD TO COME BY.
