Don't let the Bills' mediocre record trick you into thinking Josh Allen isn't playing well. He's doing everything he can, and Buffalo just can't get across the finish line.
I get the sentiment, but to be fair, when looking at statistical rankings, rushing defense focuses primarily on actual rushing not QB scrambling. Josh Allen is obviously an outlier in the league with his mobility at the QB position and having a highly rated rushing defense doesn’t really apply to stopping a QB from running during designed pass plays.
And this is part of the problem, Allen has games like he has against us and then his front office is like “We don’t need a running game if Allen can do that”
It’s clear he needs a running game. Both times of Allen’s peaks (2021 and right now), the OC incorporates a healthy serving of run game. It’s good to have Joe Brady right now.
Some podcast I listened to yesterday mentioned the Bills RBs had like 20 carries for 45 yards before they actually started picking up yards in the 4th quarter or something.
Not really paid attention to him, but dude could not be stopped against us. Ran all over our top run defense.
Stopped him in OT when it mattered to be fair
Run defense is kinda irrelevant when it’s a QB tucking it. Don’t think there were many designed runs
Only the zebras could stop the Bills this week.
