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.

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.I notice nobody's in here saying that the adjustments made in 2020 never actually occurred and Josh Allen is an wildly inaccurate QB...

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.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.
That’s not how Minnifield and Dixon did it. Bump and run!
Teams 2,3,4 are really good company to be in.
