    Is it wrong to turn the ball over? Should I not have done that? I tell you, I gotta plead ignorance on this thing, because if anyone had said anything to me at all when I first started here that that sort of thing is frowned upon… you know, cause I’ve played on a lot of teams, and I tell you, people do that all the time.

      “My game is not predicated on shots or if I turn the ball over. I missed some shots, that’s part of the game. I’m allowed to miss shots. I can do that, like any other player. I can do that. I can turn the ball over too. I can do that. That’s all a part of the game.”

      – Russell Westbrook

    Josh also made a lot of mistakes. He forced a lot of his passes into coverage which sometimes are not necessary.

    It was fun when he looked and acted like Andy Dwyer, it stopped being fun when he played like Andy Dwyer.

    It’s like a slightly better version of the jets, but the offense has the same issues.

    The combination of sloppy passes from allen + a lot of dropped passes even when he throws it accurately is just killer.

      I prefer the Russell Westbrook method.

      “Russ, did you guys lose the game tonight, or did the Jazz win it?”

      “….what?”

    You’re the biggest culprit Josh.

    From now to the end of the season I want to see a smashmouth offense, Josh is being way too careless with the ball.

      Man listen, ngl, there were so many games I’ve watched where Brady and the Patriots were absolute shit for 3 quarters. But Brady came back in the end, the defense held, and nobody talked about anything except how great Brady and Co. were.

      Now, I feel kinda the same about this. JA plays meh, but when the 4th quarter came, he fucking SUPERMANS (handing the ball off to Cook, idk how it relates lol) - but in Bills/Pats - JA comes into the 4th Quarter and by the time he sits on the bench he has TIED THE GAME OR GOTTEN THE LEAD.

      Both of those games the defense and special teams cost the game. But since they ended in losses, nobody talks about what JA did when he had to.

      Not excusing the turnovers, they are killer, but man o man if some things go different ways, they’d talk about the 4th Quarter dominance rather than the turnovers.

        That’s exactly the type of win that McDermott wants every week. But when you’ve got backups of backups in your defensive lineup you’ve got to change the strategy because these guys aren’t holding at the end.

        I understand where you are coming from brother/sister, but I rarely remember Brady having costly turnovers, bad games sure but even then, he rarely gave the ball away.

        The only game where I blame the defense is when we faced you guys, that was bad. But yesterday they had been in the field the entire game, Russ TD pass to Sutton was the perfect pass, nothing you can do there. The last drive wasn’t ideal but the game should have been over by then.

      Hey, jaguars are playing bad football.

      But man if Trevor Lawrence had all day to throw the ball like Josh Allen on the Bills, he would make it count.

      Something wrong with Josh Allen the quarterback and someone doesn’t want to admit it
