Josh Allen started at quarterback for the Buffalo Bills yesterday afternoon with a chance to seize the starting job. Instead, he was lucky to escape without a potential head injury.
Allen had a rough outing, finishing 6/12 for 34 yards. Those who watched know that he never had much time in the pocket and the few times he did, he dealt with a few drops from his receivers.
Dion Dawkins was not available but the offensive line struggled mightily against the Cincinnati Bengals starters. Nathan Peterman and the offense got things going in the second half, but everyone must remember that the Bengals had backups out there by that point.
