Bucs DC said Kyle Allen presented more of a challenge than Cam

Todd Bowles told us in our pre-broadcast meeting that the Allen-QBed team presented more of a challenge to defend than the Week 2 Cam QBed team. Said, among other issues, Allen finds his outlets better

Apparently this was said during interviews the week leading up to the game.

Oh poo, better trade the former MVP for a guy averaging 225 yards a game (25th in the league) and has almost no rushing statistics.

Jeremy Igo, the cheerleader for mediocre.

Opposing DC comments about the gameplan of the game we just won and I guess I should not post it because it may hurt some feelings.

 

Objectively, it is relevant and interesting.

We won, and put up 30+ points again...this isn't an anomaly with this offense if it gets clicking.  Allen is able to hit receivers and place the ball better then Newton.  He isn't as athletically as gifted as Newton but from the standpoint of ball placement and hitting WRs in stride, Allen is superior.

Obviously. A Cam who can’t run or hit an open WR doesn’t pose much of a challenge. There’s no doubt in any of our minds, even the Cam first fans, that Allen in week 2 wins us the game. Cam was so clearly hurt an ineffective that it’s egregious that Cam didn’t say anything while he knew he was hurting the team and that the coaches were blind and dumb enough to not replace him.

Two things. 7 turnovers, and Daley.

If that Tampa team from week 2 played even a hobbled Cam with the offensive line from this week, as well as Daley at LT and it's an easy win.

“allen finds his outlets better” 

in other words Allen doesn’t hold the ball for days like Cam does.

They didn't know that though.

He is talking about the process of game planning before the games. Not how it played out.

Then why does he fumble so often?

The more interesting comment from Bowles was this:

Go cry in a corner.

When opposing DCs are saying this stuff, people here will claim that the professional football coaches don't know what they're talking about. lol

[TheRed]

Is it that difficult for this fanbase to be happy with Allen without microanalyzing every detail of his game as a means to diminish Newton?

Clearly this ugliness starts at the top around the huddle.

Newton fumbled away the Super Bowl in his prime. Fumbles and interceptions have ended 3 out of 4 if our playoff runs with Newton. He's a 250 pound 9 year veteran.

Allen is getting hit for the first times in the NFL....and improving
