Some more thoughts on Allen:

His inaccuracy on “no brainer” type throws is concerning. The pass to Murphy he missed by a mile and the completion to DiMarco was way off too and if not for a spectacular effort on the catch it would have fallen incomplete as well. If he had hit him in stride it could have been a TD.  And I don’t like how he trys to throw through the defense at times, instead of over it.

Also, being unaware of a perimeter defenders blitz is concerning. He needs to be aware of these queues and make adjustments or find the hot route.

I’m happy that he is playing now - kid is mentally tough.  I don’t care what task in life that it is - you’re always going to learn and grow faster by doing. This opportunity grants him the time to take lumps early.

It’s not going to be easy or pretty but I truly believe he has the capacity to evolve from his short comings and his mental mistakes. The game will slow down for him and once it does I think we’ll be in for a treat.  I can’t wait to see what kind of player he is by week 17.
