Is Allen a legit starting qb

Allen has four games under his belt, and yes he hasn’t lost a game yet. 
 

But watching him in the pocket makes me nervous, he has horrible pocket presence and he’s still losing the ball. Has had two rough games against the Texans and Jags, teams are getting tape on him and know what he can/can’t do. Pretty easy to say Minshew outplayed him today.

So I’m wondering if Allen is the answer if we move on from Cam. Can he improve his play in the pocket? Probably.

Can he fix his fumbling issues? Probably.

Will he be a threat to throw deep? Haven’t seen much of this, maybe he will.

We’re 3-2 without Cam, three straight wins with Kyle this season. Probably not enough to say one way or the other but do you guys think we can consistently win with Allen as a starter?

we would have a better idea with a better line.   cam would have gotten killed behind that line today.  he holds the ball waiting for better options.   anyone wanting cam coming in behind this line, the way he plays, is nuts

To early to tell.  At the least a decent backup.  
We have faced 2 good pass rushing teams in the Texans and the Jags.  Both in the top 10 in pass rush.  
 

He has looked rattled, but many young guys look shacks under pressure to start.  

But to early to tell.  Need more games to figure that out.  
 

Be interesting what he does in London.

    • And that makes you right. 
    • Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious. 
    • We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
