Kyle Allen and his fumbling issues.

Recommended Posts

I’ve seen a lot of analysis that Kyle Allen’s fumbling will cost this team down the stretch. I’ve seen people say that it’s an epidemic, although he hasn’t lost a fumble in a month. But, that’s fine. He did have three in one game. That sucks.

You know, I guess they are right. If you fumble the ball in your first year as a starter, you better just go ahead and start looking another gig. It’s like they say: early fumbles from a young quarterbacks can absolutely wreck a career. 
 

Especially if you fumble 36 over your first three years. Hell, that was such an accomplishment, they gave Tom Brady a pair of rings for it.

Yea . . . it sucked.  It also appears that he's worked on it, successfully.  All you can ask of your young players is learn from the mistakes.  KA appears to be doing that. 

Is he the long term answer?  Who knows.  Who cares.  He is improving.  At the very least, it appears that we've uncovered a UDFA who can be our backup QB for the next 10 years and we will still have a chance to win games when he plays.

That seems like such a big win I can't even comprehend a single negative about it.

Couldn't agree more. He wasn't drafted. Pretty nice return on investment. I don't know how anyone could be upset with things.

And who knows how he develops. Maybe he's got a lot more upside. Time will tell.

    • I don't really like the phrase, "moral victory". I get what's meant by it, but does that mean that if you do the opposite (play poorly but win) it's an immoral victory? 🤔
    • I blame Evero because he is overrated. Vance Joseph created the defense in Denver that he took credit for. Wilks ran the ball down his throat and Darnold had a 103.8 rtg.  Last year we were decent in yards allowed, and horrible in everything else. Only reason? We kept giving up good field position.  He's had his choice of players to bring in since his scheme is so "complicated." Maybe he should stop trying to be so fancy like running Cover 4 on 3rd and 1 earlier and focus on fundamentals like tackling. These years of Eric Washington, Phil Snow, and Evero must have gotten you confused on what a real defense looked like. Go back and watch the McDermott and Wilks years- this dude is sofT.
    • I tried to make it a point in the opening post that I don't think the offense is a finished product. I think we still need more talent at WR, better play calling, catch more consistently, elimate ridiculous penalties,  and be more consistency in scoring points. I'm just saying, they look markedly better than last year imo. They have scored 20 or more in 6 games and 30 or more in 2 games. And that's particularly notable considering they only mustered 10 points and 3 points in first 2 games of this year and they got blanked on 0 points two games in a row to wrap up last season . I'd say that's a market improvement.  I'm not crowning them and saying we have a top 10 offense or anything.  I'm comparing them to themselves in recent history.
