What A Gutsy Performance From Our Quarterback

He wasn’t great but I do think he was a little better than his stat line. There were a lot of passes that were either on target and dropped or just barely batted down. As the season goes on if he’s still stating he and his receivers will get their timing down. Takes time.

I agree... if Cam isn't back after the bye, though, Allen is going to need to make more plays.

It's time to come up with a name for the mania surrounding Kyle Allen. With the 34-27 victory he's 4-0 as a starter, becoming the first undrafted quarterback to do that since Kurt Warner in 1999. It's going to be interesting to see what happens when Cam Newton returns

He had some nice throws, but he needs to stop fuging fumbling.  Of course, the OL seemed to have real trouble for most of the game with pass blocking.

Glad to have him as our backup and hope he keeps improving.

Fumbled less than last game, so hey that's something, right?

Right? :thinking:

Definitely wasn't as effective this game as he had been in previous ones, though I do think we mostly limited ourselves to short and medium distance plays because we didn't trust our offensive line and Jacksonville picked up on that.

if we have to continue playing with the people that we have, better teams are going to pick up on that too.

Allen had a pretty mediocre game today. True, he didn't make any glaring mistakes. But he didn't really make plays either. He did what what needed from him with CMC doing his best impression of LaDainian Tomlinson. Btw implying that we now have "real" QB in Allen is disingenuous at best.

the second fumble is probably a fumble for most QBs. blind sided 2s into a play...

but he still needs to keep his fuging hands on the ball.

at least there were a couple points later where he very clearly was more aware of the ball when he started moving around in the pocket.

and honestly I think both Houston and Jax have decent defenses (especially Jax), and they both are scheming to punish our pass blocking and limit what we have. CMC is just godly or it would have worked in both games.

    • If there's another QB that came to the combine after packing on 15 lbs of water weight to hide his playing weight, I don't remember it.  I understand it's all part of the pre-draft game, and he participated. The FO was stupid and ignored huge red flags.  On a side note though, I was at the airport a few weeks ago and saw a basketball team going through and decided to try and look through them. I'm 6'2 and these guys were 6'6 and up. I was amazed by how much I couldn't see around them. And these guys weren't 300 plus in pads. I still think he's having a hell of a time seeing the field at the NFL speed. 
    • There is merit to the points you're making here. On the flip side one could argue it took us investing 150 million in the oline for him to have a breakout season. And he has still yet to hit 1k rushing yards in a season. As far as Brooks goes the position does not require that significant of a draft investment for many other teams. That's not being negative it's just a matter of fact. The 49ers did quite well with a UDFA running back while McCaffrey was out. It is understandable that some people have concerns. That being said it boils down to whether or not you believe in the player. We just have to see what happens with him and Brooks.
    • Okay, that day in Vegas had to embarrass him completely. Andy showed him how to do the job.  What I think when I go there, why did it take Andy? He has had game after game of watching actual NFL QBs work and that didn't do it?  Anyhow Andy did not mess around, he stood in there and did his job and got rid of the ball ahead of the pressure. Down the field. With the same players Bryce had. Night and day.  If that didn't wake him up nothing ever would. But I don't think he has any sort of top NFL QB in him, he just lacks the full tool kit.
