Jet Nut Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 1 minute ago, KRL said: There's nothing to be "insecure" about. At this point Allen is the better QB in terms of winning and has a better arm. That doesn't make him a better QB prospect long term. Let's see Darnold behind a decent OLine with an actual running game (which will open up play action). Once that happens the gifts that Darnold has (accuracy, mobility, calmness in the pocket, creating plays off script) will separate him from Allen. You can't teach accuracy, which Allen doesn't have and on top of that their playoff game showed he rattles very easily The arm strength is a non story because while Allen has a huge arm Darnold arm is stronger than most and strong enough to make every throw. Darnold wins out in all the categories that are important to playing the game 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're trying to play a game each time someone responds to one of your very odd replies, where you deflect the argument. You presented one obscure stat your Bills pals told you in a Buffalo thread as if it proved Allen was a better QB about being the best QB at 3rd and 8 or whatever, as if that stat indicates anything. I not only crushed that argument, I obliterated it out of universal existence, never to be seen again, and you have no stats to back up a counter argument. You presented a false narrative from the very first topic post that Jets fans are insecure about Darnold vs Allen, as if we cry in the corner when they are compared. Except the problem with your argument, is that no Jets fans do, we just all know that Allen isnt nearly as good as Darnold and we have statistical facts and eyeballs to prove that argument. Then YOU conflate that with being "insecure"..... because you're clearly a Bills fan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCJet Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 15 minutes ago, freestater said: The next time Josh Allen hits a receiver in the numbers will be the first time. Guys breaking stride for an outside ball, balls thrown at their feet, or wildly over their heads. The guy's accuracy simply isn't there. That's the one aspect of a QB's game that historically never gets fixed. I've said it before, Josh Allen is Jeff George with a better attitude. Unfortunately for Bills fans this assessment is correct. Josh Allen is a great kid, who can make plays running and throwing the ball down the field. But as we saw with Mark Sanchez, winning games can really mask just how good a QB is. The Bills are a very well coached team, who have won games with Allen at QB which doesnt mean that Allen is a good QB. As we saw in the Super Bowl, if you want to make a run in the playoffs you need a QB who can orchestrate game winning drives by throwing the ball and im not sure Allen will ever develop the accuracy and touch to be a consistent enough passer to do that. Sam has that ability - he has other things to work on, but he has shown he can be an elite passer as far as accuracy and anticipation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets723 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 1 minute ago, GeorgeJetson said: Both players have their fans and detractors. It’s part of being a young QB. In the OPs defense the majority of Jets fans were pretty happy with Sanchez after two years. As fans there is an element of blind faith with these players, and young QBs are especially polarizing. Josh Allen is going through the same thing as Sam. There are plenty Bills fans who aren’t sold on him just like there are plenty of fans who think he’s the second coming. To me these threads are pointless. Both players are uncontested starters next year-lets just see how things play out. Good Post. Look frankly I don’t have any issue with fans liking another QB. There are fans who like Baker More. Hell there were even some who still liked Rosen more. As for Allen I’ve mentioned his strengths and weaknesses. I’m not a fan of his but he seems like a good kid. I’ve always preferred Darnold even a year before we drafted him. He also has things he needs to fix but he also has had no real support around him. Thankfully Douglas is starting to fix that and will continue going in the draft. Personally I don’t focus on other teams players just my own 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see Josh Allen’s upside as Cam Newton and downside as Mitchell Trubisky/Blake Bortles. It will all depend on how consistent Allen can become on throws 10 yards and under. He misses way too many of those, and that limits what you can do on offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTJet Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 5 minutes ago, hamat711 said: Here is the truth......... Josh Allen averages more TDs per game and less turnovers per game than Sam Darnold. This was true in both his rookie year and sophomore year. This is not true. Darnold has 33 career turnovers in 26 games Allen has 43 career turnovers in 28 games. The TDs are only when factoring in rushing TDs, something that does not hold up for QBs career wise. Dont state something as fact unless you apply context. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darnold 512 for 855 with 59.9% completion rate. 5889 yards with 36 TDs to 28 Ints/5 fumbles (33 turnovers) Longest pass each season of 76 and 92 yards with 7 yards per pass attempt. 63 sacks. Allen 449 for 781 with 56% completion rate. 5180 yards with 30 TDs to 21 Ints/22 fumbles (43 turnovers) Longest pass each season of 75 and 53 with 6.5 yards per pass attempt. 66 sacks. Darnold was better in Completed passes, Yards, TDs, Less total turnovers, Longer passes, Yards per completed pass, Taking less sacks. Allen was better in Less Interceptions. And to twist the knife in your ribs even more, Darnold did all that in 2 less career games and behind the statistically worst line in the NFL. So what did we learn here? Darnold is better than Allen in every major QB category that matters. Tell your Bills buddies you failed at your mission. LOL, you left out 17 TDs for Josh Allen and all his rushing yards. This is false unless you literally take away all of Josh's running abilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
