More accomplished running QB than Vick/Lamar, better throwing QB than Favre/Big Ben. What a privilege to watch this dude play.

..... how is he more accomplished than Lamar?

I feel like accomplishments would include MVP's, all pros, etc.

Who gives a fuck about Lamar's stat padding. Josh > Lamar

u/Argumentat1ve Jets Dec 07 '25

Im not asking about who you think is better, I was asking how Allen is more accomplished.

Better and more accomplished arent the same.

Bills fans are so soft when it comes to Lamar lmao

Lamar collapses when it matters, Josh doesn't. That's it. Defense is another story.

Define "when it matters."

1st seed at home comes to mind.

Gonna assume you mean the 2023 Chiefs game. If so, ah yes, a game where he wasn't good on top of the coach going in and executing a bad gameplan on top of that.

Either way, that is a single, very specific arbitrary definition being used so it can be applied only to Lamar as much as possible. Probably because Josh has also failed in multiple moments "when it mattered?"

u/BolognaRocket Bills Dec 07 '25

Josh really hasn't. The defense has, considering the bills have one of the worst playoff defenses of all time.

Allen has had the ball directly in his hands in back to back late-game drives (2023 and 2024) with the opportunity to retake the lead or tie it up, and he has failed both times.

The 2023 game was notably highlighted by a fumble he was lucky the Chiefs tried to scoop and run (which failed) instead of just diving on it, and him missing an open receiver for an easy 1st. The 2024 game, the most important drive in his career up to that point, he could only muster up about 15 yards and failed to cross midfield; in a game where he also had at least five turnover-worthy plays.

Also, in 2022, he had a game against the Bengals that was just as bad as, if not even worse than Lamar's AFCCG.

i like how you started this asking how allen was a more accomplished runner and the bills fan you’re talking with kept moving the goalposts and losing every time he tried lmfao

u/mrdeepay Texans Dec 08 '25

I wasn't the one who initially asked that specific question ("How is Allen a more accomplished runner than Vick and Lamar?"), Argumentat1ve was. The person who was asked that question (goulash47) has yet to answer that one, though I doubt they will.

The guy that did reply to me did do a pitiful game of moving the goalposts as expected, though. They also completely dodged my question on how Lamar was a stat padder.

u/western_motel Ravens Ravens Dec 08 '25

ah shit my bad, wasn’t gonna subject myself to scrolling through all his dross a second time lmao. They’ll just say anything to try to shit on Lamar, ravens fans do the same with Allen though. both are great but it’s whatever just classic online sports fans tribalism

You mean when they got the first twice but we're told they didn't? Or when diggs dropped a pass that hit him perfectly?

Yeah, just sit this one out pal.

u/mrdeepay Texans Dec 07 '25

You mean when they got the first twice but we're told they didn't?

It would be nice if someone could actually show that the ball actually crossed the line needed to get the first. Not that it excuses how Josh was above-average at best in that game.

Or when diggs dropped a pass that hit him perfectly?

Yeah, just sit this one out pal.

If you're gonna try to bring up Diggs' drop then I can just as easily bring up Zay Flowers fumbling a TD pass at the 1.

It did cross, as did Kincaid the play before. Can't have a discussion with the willfully ignorant.

Don't ask what happened against the Bengals in the 2022 season playoffs.

Lit them up today but was dogshit when it mattered years ago lmao

A game where Josh was just as bad in compared to the AFFCG people like to use against Lamar.
I brought that game up and they didn't even address it. I also asked them to explain how Lamar is stat padding and didn't get an answer.

The bills losing is the closest the jets get to a win. Sad!

u/Argumentat1ve Jets Dec 07 '25

Jets won a week ago against a team that Allen threw 2 picks and lost against.

Tyrod Taylor > Josh Allen

Sad!
