What is Kyle Allen’s ceiling?

[raz]

he's the greatest quarterback in the universe, much less the stratosphere!

I don't. 2015 Cam or now? 

Where’s that answer at? 

[My Goodness My Guinness]

He looked bad early in this game but really turned it around and made some nice plays. I think the Alex Smith comparison is probably accurate but Smith is actually an athlete who could get you some pretty good runs

[WoahW]

@Snake don’t be dodging poo now son? Where those answers at?

If Matt Moore is still playing in the NFL, Kyle Allen could win SB MVP one day

Listen, bash on Matt Moore all you like, but . . .

That's from today.

Don't know his ceiling but his floor going forward is starting QB for the Carolina Panthers, which is more than you can say than any other QB on the roster currently.

K Allen was like a combined 5 inches away from having 3-4 INTs today fwiw.

No way to know 7 games into his career but he’s going to need to hit the weight room if he wants to be a full time starter. 

Agreed. He did put 17lbs on this offseason.  But needs to get stronger.

in all seriousness, it is way too early to tell, but I do not get the feeling he is going to be an elite talent.  He could probably be a decent starter but unless he addresses the deep ball, he is going to struggle at times.  Anything > 20 yards and he can't place the ball well at all.

Eeehhh, I don't know. The league has plenty of successful starters who don't have cannon arms.

The biggest question for me right now is "Do I see improvement?" Outside of the 49ers game, the answer to that has generally been yes. And the fact that he successfully bounced back from that game is a positive.

The ability to grow and get better is a big big deal when it comes to a young quarterback.

Surprised no one said Alex Smith yet. Good, reliable QB but never viewed as "the guy".

Also had the stigma of not being willing to go beyond 20 yards down field.

Alex Smith is a good comparison.

Not really. Some of those balls hit the Titans defensive backs in the hands, and chest, and leg. Those couldn't have been literal inches he was speaking of.

And he was just as close to have another 2 TDs is what I mean - the Titan defender on the one Samuel ball being slightly out of position is one, and Moore having a cleaner catch on his long ball is another.  I don't fault either receiver in either case, but I find the "what COULD have happened if player X had made the play" tiresome when they didn't.  Where are the pitchforks for Wright dropping a very catchable ball on 3rd down in the 4th quarter?  That seems to be a bigger sticking point than if our QB may have thrown two more interceptions or not had things gone differently.
