Josh Allen explodes after Week 9 defeat against the Jets
Josh Allen is seen as one of the best quarterbacks nowadys in the NFL. He has totally changed the Bills’ image in recent years, so he knows the responsibility he has over his shoulders.
In Week 9 of the 2022 NFL season, Buffalo faced the Jets. New York is in a surprisingly good shape this year, but the odds had the Bills as favorites for this game. Well, the White and Green team proved them wrong.
Even though the first quarter was for Buffalo, New York cameback to win the game with a 17-20 final score. Josh Allen talked about the game and showed he is his ownbiggest critic.
“It’s tough to win in this league. We were playing a good team here, (and) your quarterback (him) plays like s—,” Allen said. “Made some bad decisions tonight, really cost our team. A lot to learn from, a lot to grow from, but that’s not the standard we hold ourselves to. That’s not the ball that we play.”
In the second half, when the Bills needed him the most, Allen just completed 5 of 12 passes for 42 yards. That’s not a number that could lead to the victory. Despite the loss, Sean McDermott, Bills head coach, doesn’t doubt his quarterback.
“I have ultimate trust in Josh,” McDermott said. “He’s a heck of a football player, it’s important to him, so he knows that those are non-negotiables, those plays right there. It’s gonna happen from time to time just by percentages and times you throw, (but) overall it’s gotta improve.”
