Super Bowl LVI - Ohio vs Odell

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
I notice nobody's in here saying that the adjustments made in 2020 never actually occurred and Josh Allen is an wildly inaccurate QB...

Guess 32/43 for 74.4%, 358 yards and 4 TD's without an interception will do that.

Josh Allen looks really good and I'd say easily the best QB of that class to this point.

If last season and his start to this season are totally for real, he'll remain the best QB from that class going forward until he retires.

It certainly helps balance out the 51.5% and 58.8% games he had before it!

Edited to add: I don't think Allen is bad, but he sure hasn't been great to start this year. Even with his huge day yesterday, he's currently 27th in completion % at 62% and 24th in YPA at 6.4.

His accuracy, so far, is down a fair chunk from where it was last season.

No one said he didn't make adjustments and improve. One season of super high accuracy should be treated as an outlier until additional evidence further proves the notion. After the first 2 games of the season, it certainly was looking the case. If he continues those mid 60-low 70s percentage rates, then by all means, anoint him.

But fuck, I forgot. 1 game = excellent sample size and proves whatever point needed at the time.

Oh, I completely agree that one game doesn't mean shit. I'd also say that completion percentage is a bad measure of whether a QB is accurate and good with ball placement. You can have a middling QB throw lots of completions and no interceptions--but that guy isn't as accurate as someone who makes bigger plays. Something that measured expected completion percentage by weighing each throw against the expected completion rate might be a better metric.

But it was just funny seeing the people flock to calling him inaccurate because he was only accurate for an entire season after making specific changes to his mechanics.

It's like someone calling Drew Brees weak-armed when he first joined New Orleans because he came into the league with San Diego as a weak-armed QB. Sometimes people work on aspects of their game and change them.
