Six of his 97 regular-season deep targets were dropped, which was the second-highest rate in the league behind Wentz. As an example, take one of the most famous plays from Allen's season, when he threw what appeared to be a bomb in double coverage to fullback Patrick DiMarco in overtime during the Texans game: The legendary fullback bomb - DiMarco technically has a step when Allen throws the ball, although pretty clear the CB's going to be able to catch up and no way Allen's going to be able to get enough on the football throwing to the opposite sideline to fit it between the CB and S. pic.twitter.com/PB4iJdUlnD. Buffalo finished last season 21st in offensive DVOA, up from 31st in 2018. It's difficult for quarterbacks in the modern era to succeed with a completion percentage below 60, although it's not impossible.
They probably have Greg Roman's old playbook from the Taylor days laying around somewhere.
When I looked at Derek Carr after his breakout 2016 season, I found that both of those statistics are relatively random from year to year. I get to learn from that situation and try to apply that to the next time I’m on the field.”. Can he?
They invested heavily in rebuilding the offense before last season, and general manager Brandon Beane followed that up by sending four draft picks to the Vikings for star wide receiver Stefon Diggs. It’s fun to watch him.”. It's difficult to believe that the Bills would give up on him if he has a disappointing 2020 campaign, but look at the Bears with Trubisky. If he could just reduce his off-target rate from 23% to 20% or so, it would go a long way. The game-tying touchdown he threw to Brown in the comeback win over the Jets is a good example, although he isn't anywhere near as comfortable making those sorts of throws over the middle of the field. My biggest concern with Allen pops up in these deep throws but really shows up at all levels of the field: It's tough to find many plays where he throws with anticipation.

Why 2020 is a big year for Allen. There are a few reasons this might happen: To request an unblock, please fill out the form below and we will review it as soon as possible. Factor in six fumbles as a passer and Allen's 14 fumbles were third most in the NFL.
Let's start by taking a broader look at where Allen stands among starting quarterbacks. “On the field, the things that he does, is second to none. 319.5k Followers, 622 Following, 129 Posts - See Instagram photos and videos from Josh Allen (@joshallenqb) According to Next Gen Stats, he completed 33.7% of those deep throws when he actually should have hooked up on 39.5% of his targets, the fourth-worst mark in the league.
Allen ranked 21st in passer rating and 24th in QBR on deep passes (as defined by the NFL).
Football Outsiders tracks an adjusted interception rate statistic, which includes things like dropped interceptions and picks thrown on Hail Mary attempts.
When Next Gen Stats adjusts for the location and speed of his receivers and the defenders on the other side of the field to estimate what his completion percentage "should" have been, it wanted him to complete 62.6% of his throws. At this point, Allen generates much of his value as a quarterback by running the football effectively and avoiding interceptions. He was 25th in completion percentage and yards per attempt. I should also note that Allen didn't really have drop troubles elsewhere; his overall drop percentage in 2019 was 3.7%, which ranked 12th among those 26 passers and just above the league average of 3.4%. It's an unrealistic throw; DiMarco is not fast enough to keep the cornerback and safety from converging on any possible throw, and even given his arm strength, there's no way Allen's going to be able to hit DiMarco in a hole between the two defenders without giving them time to catch up.
