Remember when Drew Bledsoe got replace by Tom Brady?

Not saying that Kyle Allen will be Tom Brady, but...remember that?  The Patriots were done without Bledose.  Brady was a 6th round pick out of Michigan.  NOBDODY predicted his success.  He's pretty much the GOAT now.  Hell, I remember myself talking to other people saying the Pats were dead. And btw, at that time the Pats weren't poo, kind of like we are now.

Kyle Allen has had a couple of pretty damn good games. And I'll be the first to admit that the Saints game last year was bullshit in my mind.  But if he can keep this up, then count me in.

And in how many rose bowls did Allen threw for over 300 and 4 touchdowns? 

Brady was miss-scouted by an conservative coor still thinking the deep ball was the number one, two and three priority. 

No knock on Allen (we can always hope), just saying chill a little.

I think all the Brady talk is nuts. 

But I do remember an UDFA balling out and taking us to the Super Bowl at QB. 

If he has a career like Jake, I will take it.  I think he's more accurate and has a stronger arm than Jake tho.

negative spin #237,082 from Linville

I mean, he has a point. I doubt he is displeased with Allen. 

Allen looked great but let's see him this week, next week, the week after, etc.

Let's especially see him when our opponents get more tape on him. That will be a big indicator, IMO.

    • In that case its in his best interest to fully recover. 
    • Looks like we're fifth in running plays/play action plays when in the lead and about 10th in the league when we fall behind.  The biggest thing I take from this is not that we drop off like that, because every team does, but that we drop off so much. A lot of the best teams don't  drop off much, depending on the game situation, preferring to stick to their game plan through out. Some of those are very good teams. Baltimore barely deviates from their run/action heavy plan. At the other end, KC also barely deviates, but they have one of the least run oriented attacks in the league by these stats. On the other side, there are teams that make even bigger shifts (based on last year's performance) and they are teams that for various reasons found themselves in desperation attempts. Dallas, Atlanta, the Browns, Bucs and Bengals were all literally throwing out their game plans and trying to either lean on their top end QB or were just frantically trying to create something downfield. Considering the years of us completely abandoning the run (oh those Matt Rhule days), maybe we are starting to stabilize. Don't even get me started on the Reich days...  
    • I am kindof in the camp that its not an addiction for him just a dumb ass kid who didnt think he would get caught.  I think the "addiction" angle was the story they went with in hopes of not being banned for life   But I doubt we show interest as I think he is going to be pricey (Draft capital wise)
