I didn’t get to watch the game yesterday (and probably wouldn’t have even if I did have the chance), how did Josh play? Any glimpses of brilliance?

His stat line was pretty respectable considering he was throwing to CFL players.

They should've never traded Tyrod. Both Peterman and Allen would've benefit from sitting and learning for a year, maybe even two.

Watching the tape, I thought Allen played pretty well week 1 . . . he was dreadful this week though. A lot of poor decisions and general inaccuracy. I'm not willing to blame his receivers for his performance this week

You should be cheering him on. I also watch the tape on Allen and have for a long time.

The Bills scored 17 of the last 20 points in that contest and Outscored the Chargers 14-3 in the 2nd half. Allen is a fearless player. As far as keeping Tyrod..... Please he is an overrated journeyman that holds the ball too long and historical won't throw players open. Why in the world would anyone want Allen to learn that.

The Bills are going to go through growing pains no doubt much like the Cowboys did with Aikman back in the day.

Allen has more upside than any QB in this class. He has plenty of haters around here I get that, but in a year or two the Bills are going to be solid. He needs an O line in a big way.

Through a few quarters tonight R Wilson is 8-17 70 yards. The point is; O lines matter so judging too soon is speculative at best

On a side the head coach for the Bills looked be calling the defensive plays in the 2nd half. That was interesting and effective. Doesn't bode too well for the D coordinator so worth keeping an eye on.

That and that oline isn't even CFL worthy .

Move over Nathan Peterman hype ;) - Josh Allen hype is about to explode (based off of todays game so far)!!

Win or lose, this is definitely his moment to announce himself to the rest of the world. If I was McDermott, I would approach him after he hurdled Barr, just like the coach in Major League- Nice play, dont ever do that crap again.

Very impressive play today. The fake screen for a TD was an incredible play that showed just how smart this player is: Outstanding footwork today. Showed touch and accuracy all day.

Even his critics are going to come around him eventually.

Had a dropped pick and the fumble, but definitely looked much better this week after last week's disastrous showing . . . bouncing back like this, on the road, against a very good defense, is absolutely a good sign for him

I was low on him before the preseason but he showed better footwork and smarts in those 4 games than I thought he had, still early days but my original prediction of him being a turd looks way off. Very athletic for a big guy

He also had a perfectly thrown 50+yard bomb to Foster dropped and Benjamin dropped two right out the gate. One which would have put them at first and one at the goal line. This was with no Shady either, so one would assume the defensive strategy shifts even more with a teams best player gone. Imagine if Lamar Jackson would have done this or Baker, and I am a huge Baker fan. Josh I was and still am mixed on, but somehow many seem to downplay this performance. One game though, so hopefully he can follow it up next week at another tough place to play. Hopefully the D plays well again and he is not in a 2 td hole to AAron.
