OnePantherPlace Film Room / Kyle Allen

Healthy cam is better however he is not. He made some nice throws... maybe no one wants to get hurt on the D in a meaningless game but they don’t want to look stupid. Anyone who was a backup played there hearts out... unless you are a star that is your career... game plan who knows but besides a couple of guys out there they were playing to get a check another year.

Damn. I don’t remember that many bootlegs. Assume we will see a bunch of those tomorrow to help our porous OL.  

Well done Ellis!!!

Allen is actually very mobile (so is Grier). He's also capable of being a half-decent occasional run threat, but I think a lot of people don't quite perceive him that way. 

Side Note,: People often use the terms "mobile" and "run threat" with regard to quarterbacks as if they were synonymous. They really aren't.

A mobile quarterback is one who can move around in the pocket and take off running if necessary. They might make a play with their legs every once in a while but you don't want to count on that.

A run threat quarterback on the other hand is an actual weapon in the run game (and one that opposing DCs fear). You want to send them on designed runs three or four times a game because they're capable of doing just as much damage as a running back when used properly.

Most pro quarterbacks not named Dan Marino are at least some level of "mobile" (heck, even Jake Delhomme showed DeAngelo Hall  some moves once). Not as many are run threats.

    • Wow that’s actually really cool chatgpt can do that Although, as we know Arizona sat in soft zone the entire second half. So there was a lot of dinking and dunking, but that’s the right thing to do in that situation.  Week 1 pass chart doesn’t look bad. He pushes the ball downfield more than several other quarterbacks I’ve watched. For some reason the huddle thinks other quarterbacks are constantly throwing 60 yard bombs. That is absolutely not the case. Some quarterbacks aren’t taking any deep shots at all.
    • We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.
    • This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together.
