Josh Allen on the Bills offense not taking many chances downfield, and the subsequent fan reaction: “I just want to win football games. People want to talk about last game that we aren’t pushing the ball down field. We’re winning football games.”

  4. I love a Josh Allen haymaker but the bills offense has been so disciplined last few games and the stats show it. Idc if the games are boring KEEP WINNING 💪🔥

  5. Take what the defense gives you. I also think the Bills are taking the long game here and trying to save some of their best stuff for the post season which is what Andy Reid does

  6. I don’t wanna get on that roller coaster ever again just take what they give you be smart and let’s win the division/ 1 seed asap

  8. Long plays are high variance, short plays are lower variance. When you’re the best team in the league you want lower variance, AND it keeps the defense off the field longer to rest. I love the offense right now because it’s so efficient and effective with low risk.

  10. He is taking what they are giving them. And in the case of running the ball, sometimes they can take more. There is no need for big down field passes yet. I am sure some team will use safeties to gameplan around Cook.

  11. It’s frustrating to watch sometimes because 2020 Josh Allen was so exciting. The Bills are so comfortable using all three downs, and are totally content to be in 3rd and 2 because they know they will most likely convert. With QBs like Josh sometimes all the other team can do is play keepaway, so I’m totally fine with the Bills keeping Josh on the field as long as they can. Especially when this “boring” offense has put up 30+ every game.

  12. A win is a win. I don’t care how they get it done. The media needs to knock off their nonsense, trying to make a narrative where there isn’t one 🙄

  14. Every critic of this team called him a turnover machine because he tried to make big plays that inevitably lead to turnovers. Now he’s doing the smart right thing taking what the defense gives him and they’re still criticizing, this guy literally can’t win…

  15. Are people actually complaining about this? I’d rather every drive be only runs and check-downs, and we win, than 60 yard bombs and we lose.

  16. Brothers and Sisters of the mafia.

    Who among ye is complaining that winning is boring?

    Who among ye would not choose a W if given the chance? A big ole dub?

    Have ye forgotten the trials and tribulations of the recent past? Have ye truly become so coddled and cocksure?

    Surely the pain inflicted upon ye by Rex Ryan, and Nathan Peterman has not become so distant as to become mere lore?

    Rejoice, ye faithful. Joshua Fucking Allen has spoken of winning football games! Hitch thy drunken steed to thy wagons and proceed in a circular manner!

    Go Bills, Amen

  17. I didn’t realize there was a fan reaction 🤷‍♂️ did the reporter make that up

  18. The one game he did, it’s because we were down 15 with 5 minutes left. Josh can sling it if he had to, but most games he won’t need to. Also, the last two games had a lot of deep coverage shells, so we just ran at them and took check downs. Why risk the ball when you’re playing two winless teams?

  19. Defenses are playing him in 2 high shell and daring him to stay patient and throw underneath.

    He is responding by saying, “ok, bet fam,” and tearing shit up.

  21. Remember after that 98 yarder it Gabe Davis and after that they got really trigger happy and careless. I’m glad Brady has brought in a more rounded approach. Teams were setting out to stop the deep ball so leaning into the run and shorter stuff is the obvious thing to do. 

  22. My god, I cannot even believe this is an issue. If it aint broke, don’t fix it. They are scoring an average of 34 points a game. Unless he absolutely needs to throw a bomb, there is no need to do that if the offense is already moving with ease. I really believe it’s the Fantasy Football fans that are having issues with this.

    It’s not like we haven’t seen him air it out a million times in his career. We know what he is capable of and it doesn’t just go away. If dinking and dunking and Cook’s running game is going, then so be it.

  23. For years all we heard was that Josh was good but took too many risks/threw too many interceptions. Now he’s being efficient and conservative with the rock and people are still complaining.

  24. I know this is the exact right kind of football they should be playing, and I am happy that they are, but that 2020 season was amazing to watch!

  27. Josh’s maturity and development has been so freaking amazing to watch.

    Just a couple years ago I was getting roasted for saying he needed to play smarter and not turn it over as often. Many others disagreed saying that’s how he scores so many TDs. But he’s proven them wrong by being disciplined and smart.

    His next level ups will be about playing under center more often, using play action to deceive defenses, then reintroducing the big play when the defenses make mistakes.

    It’s coming full circle back to working the big plays back into the offense.

    He’ll still be able to run the 16 play 10 minute back breaking drive but have the tactical strike in his back pocket if defenses cheat.

  28. Protecting a defense that needs some time to come along. This is a team game. Go Bills from Canada!

  30. How many of those complaining are just pissed the team isn’t covering the spread on seemingly easy wins, or even some fantasy team bs?

  31. We spent nearly two decades of having literally no success and we’re worried about HOW we’re winning football games?!

  32. Bills offense is getting the 2019-2021 Chiefs offense treatment. Defenses are employing the “We won’t let you push the ball down the field” Cover-2 umbrella/shell, so it’s all just short 5-7 yard routes. If you’re gonna play 10 yards off LOS, we will take the 5 yards/play and score every drive until you start covering up the checkdowns.

  33. I love a 40 yard james cook TD run as much as I love a Josh 40 yard bomb.

    But what I love more is a 9 minute, 16 play, 92 yard drive in the 4th quarter to ice the game.

  35. HEY THIS IS TOM FROM TONAWANDA CALLING FROM MY TOYOTA TACOMA. LISTEN I LOVE JOSH ALLEN AS MUCH AS THE NEXT GUY BUT HES DEFINITELY REGRESSED AND JOE BRADYS HOLDING HIM BACK. WHERES THE BIG THROWS TO GABE DAVIS? WE GOTTA GET DIGGS BACK, AND LETS SEE WHAT COLE BEASLEYS UP TO, I REALLY LIKED THAT GUY. ANYWAY GO BILLS BUT I DONT SEE HOW WERE GONNA WIN A SUPER BOWL UNLESS ALLEN STARTS THROWIN IT 99 YARDS. OK IM GONNA HANG UP AND LET YOU TALK.
