Bottom Line on Allen in this game.

Crazy huh? Even more crazy because Allen is a “good“ QB.  

 

    Dude, really? You called it 24-10 Texans, then smugly said you were out. Don't you think you need to take a rest from all this? At least until you decide which way the wind takes you?

Make no mistake about it we won that game in spite of Allen, he did his best to try and lose it.

 

But he’s a capable backup so I’m happy we won

Allen outplayed Deshaun Watson.  Allen had more yards and a higher completion %, but yet he's just okay despite out-dueling one of the most hyped QBs in the League.  Watson had fewer fumbles...that's the only stat line where he bested Allen.  The sad part, Houston's OL is supposed to be in worse shape than the Panthers.  After today, I'm not so sure.

People that think Allen tried to lose this game don't remember what it was like to watch Clausen play for the Panthers.

Allen did enough to win.  He needs to hold onto the fuging ball.  Did we win in spite of him?  I doubt it.

Watson was essentially neutralized when the front 7 forced him out of the pocket. It was rather bizarre.

This is short sighted response.  Allen was a good game manager and kept our defense rested.  He lost the ball and killed some drives, but he performed well and kept the chains moving.  The play at the end where he dodged Watt was pro and ended up sealing the win.  In other words, he made some mistakes but he sure didn't 'try his best to lose it.'

Exactly.

A few years back, they filmed Jerome Bettis just trying to walk around his home. It was depressing.

Bettis looked pretty good in the flag football commercial. I hope that means he's doing well.

Lol defense was gassed until O’brien took a poo on himself

The bottom line is he’s 3-0 in his first three starts, all on the road. 

That’s pretty rare.

@PanthersFan_Afr: So, as far as I can tell, only @PatrickMahomes and @KyleAllen_10 have ever made their first 3 starts on the road and won.

What are you talking about?  We won the time of possession battle.  And, according to Igo "After trailing in time of possession by seven minutes in the first half, Carolina flipped the script in the second half and time of possession ended nearly even."

Houston was rolling on this tired out Defense before O’Brien called that awful, momentum shifting WR Pass play.

Uhh... no.  Houston started at our 46 due to a fumble.  And, that was in the 1st half.

Looking forward to the Qb battle between Gardner Minshew and Kyle Allen next week, somebody's 0 has got to go.
