The secret to (finally) slowing down Josh Allen 

By the way I obviously started on this episode well before last night's game, but I just wanna send some prayers Tua's way. Last night was extremely scary and I really hope he's okay.

Awesome format in this video! Really cool to see you enjoy the game. I liked you tying in some tendencies from a prior game to the current one. Helps to see how a team can gameplan. If you go to games in the future, would be cool to see some more vlog style clips of your experience at the game or a live reaction or two! Good work my man. - A Bears fan

Can you do a hurts breakdown of what has changed that is having him perform surprisingly better than most have expected

Too bad Pittsburgh didn’t watch this 😢

All right, time to bet big against the Ravens.

Great video. Though as a Jags fan I can say that the easiest way to stop Josh Allen is to have your own Josh Allen as facing someone with the same name robs him of his powers.

Found out today that Tommy Doyle (OG) played the last drive with a torn ACL. He was literally the last lineman they had available that day and stayed on the field.

You didn't even mention all the times a lesser QB than Allen would have been sacked. It was a crazy effort that I'm not sure another QB in the league could've handled as well. Great breakdown. Hope you stayed out of the sunny side of that stadium where it's brutally hot.

Congrats to all the Josh Allen fantasy owners and people who took him in DFS this week

Oh! A Brett Kollmann video over the Bills, nice to know their season is over!

I struggle so much with understanding the football jargen in these episodes, but god damnit it is still so digestable. Great video, I especially loved those shots of Hardrock and the tailgating

Didn't Allen account for like 460 yards (air+run) against Miami? The key to slowing them down is decimating the offense with heat and injury. Bill's will smoke Miami in December.

I’ve been a long time NFL window watcher and self proclaimed “Bills Fan”. Watching this channel and understanding the game of schematics has completely changed the game for me! It is so freaking cool to catch onto coverages on Sundays thanks to your explanations of coverages. Man, thank you for making football that much better.

Result of Herbert video: Crushed ribs Result of Dolphin/Josh Allen video: TBA

Man, those shots from the gameday were something different and really great. Thanks for the great video

*how to stop Josh Allen* Make him throw the ball 60 times until his arm is a wet noodle *how to stop the rest of the team* Hope/wait for half them to leave the game with injuries

The secret to slowing down Josh Allen = 100 degree heat and 3 offensive linemen leaving the game. Very effective in slowing him to a mere 400 yards and 2 TDs

Jets must of watched this 😂

Josh Allen is the #QBeast #GoBills All Division rivalry aside, I hope Tua is okay...

Hey Brett, genuinely curious as an aspiring "deep dive" fan of the game... where did you get all your knowledge? How do you know all these random play calls and scheme names and which coach came up with what... it's so fascinating to me but I don't really know where to begin on trying to grind through all of this information.

The secret to slowing down high Allen: injure his teammates

Definitely a great video and Miami did a fantastic job on defense but I think people are underselling just how banged up the o line was for Buffalo. By the second half their starting center right guard and right tackle were gone they were on their third center and second backup guard, they had no more backup oline men and were one more injury away from playing a db on the o line. But gotta give Miami props they smelt blood in the water and took advantage of it, can’t wait for a healthier round 2

That last game from josh Allen was like a highlight reel. They were def getting after him but he was going crazy 😂

Brett...watch the Bills backup center, Van Roten on the strip sack. He was the cause of it for two reasons. First, he telegraphed the snap count by snapping it directly after he moves his head signifying he was ready to snap the ball. The problem is, he never changed it up and it was the third time in a row he did it exactly the same. This led to the Dolphins getting off the ball extremely quickly. Secondly, he caught his own man by surprise with the quick snap. If you watch Dawkins is pointing out a Dolphin defender to Saffold and is looking inside when the ball gets snapped. Van Roten snapped the ball so quickly after his head turn signal that he never gave Dawkins a chance to get ready for it. By the time Dawkins turns and gets out of his stance, Holland is already by him. This breakdown absolutely does not happen with Mitch Morse in there. Morse being out singlehandedly cost us the game pretty much, as this play happened and then the under center snap issues that plagued us all game led to a bobbled spike attempt at the end of the half which prevented a FG try and they didn't even try to do an under center snap down at 2nd and goal from half half yard line which would normally have been an Allen sneak or Allen reaching the ball over for an easy TD like he did in his first start against the Vikings. Additionally...if allowing 400 yards passing is "stopping" Allen with a bunch of backup linemen in and receivers cramping up and having to come out every other play in the 4th quarter and he STILL was moving the ball at will, they need to come up to with a better plan. At one point when the Bills were going to a 3 WR package they had Quentin Morris(backup TE), Reggie Gilliam(FB/3rd TE) and Jame Cook(RB) playing WR at the same time for a series and Allen waa moving the ball at will even with them

The connection to what the Ravens did, that was why I come to this channel. great video, Brett.

How to slow Allen: send him to 100-degree weather and call 60-plus pass plays.

Nice video Brett. With that being said Josh Allen had 400 yards passing and another 47 yards rushing. Bills left at least 20 pts on the table due to all the OL/WR injuries getting hurt before and during the game. ( Gabe Davis dropped TD, No TD from the 1 yard line at the end of the game, Missed 38 yard FG, no fg at the end of the half due to another botched snap) You mentioned some dropped int by the Dolphins but lets not forget the dropped pick 6 by Milano where he would have walked into the endzone. With that being said I fully expect the Bills to drop 40+ on the Dolphins come DEC. I'll be back for that recap for sure.

hOw TO StoP aLLeN... Massive injury list along the offensive line having him play with 3rd stringers and practice squad guys and have his receiver drop a TD in the endzone. Not to mention that his top 3 receivers were all rotating to the sideline to get fluids or have craps worked out.

Thanks to Brett Kollmann, Josh Allen's Bills Beat the Ravens, Went 13-4 and won Superbowl 57 against the Buccaneers. - I hope Lamar wins, and My Eagles Meet The Ravens in SB 57.

There's no true way to slow down my guy...you can only slow down the rest of the team with help from mother nature

Appreciate the breakdown Brett. As a Bills' fan, I was curious what the tape would say. At first glance, it seemed like guys just didn't make plays- Gabe Davis looked like he had a TD secured as his second foot came down before getting knocked loose, and Josh threw the 4th down pass at McKenzie's feet (figured Josh was gassed after playing 90 snaps in that weather). I'm wondering if a competent run game would have helped, but Buffalo was without Morse who is a key cog in their OL... plus injuries had an impact where they were literally down to their last 5 remaining OL (one of which was playing on a torn ACL)

Dropping 400 pass yards is considered "stopping/slowing down" Allen? Had it not been for a dropped TD (Gabe Davis), and underthrown TD (McKenzie), a bad snap at the end of half (back up center) made a FG impossible, a missed FG. The Bills left a ton of points on the field. All that said, the Dolphins had more points at the end of regulation, and won the game. But they didn't stop Allen in any capacity

This conclusion isn’t logically sound. The entire Bills offensive line being out slowed Josh Allen. Horrible take.

I was hoping this was a guide to how Chicago (Justin Fields) Can at least get themselves to an average season this year.

It’s really scary to think a guy who had about 460 yards of total offense was “slowed down”. Every X and O you can possibly draw will not change the fact that this game was won and lost by completely outrageous circumstances and nothing more. You know as well as I do out of the 272 games that will be played this year, no team will possess the ball for less than 20 minutes and win the game. Allan was, once again, far and away the best player on the field.

I think it had to do with the whole right side and center all where backups, hell the Bills had a guy who never played center in there

There is no stopping Allen... he is the Greek Freak of the NFL

To be honest I don’t think you know what you’re talking about at all but ok

I feel like a lot of this game was due to the heat and injuries

Me watching this almost a month later 😐. Josh Allen’s stats right now 19 passing Tds 1980 passing yards 17 passing tds to 4 picks and 201 rushing yards with a td with a 109.1 rating. Meanwhile having less playing time than any qb cause they blow out most of their opponents.

Brett, this kind of nerdy X’s and O’s is exactly the reason I come here to watch your channel! Thanks for teaching me new things!

“Cross, not robber” lol you’re a nerd Brett

Miami d coordinator is smart he established the line of scrimmage tired out the oline then sat back and made plays

Vic Fangio needs to take a look at this

THIS is the kind of analysis that really contributes to the enjoyment of this sport. Anything else is just hot take-like content. Great work, Brett. 👌

I thought the secret was heat stroke

I feel bad that Miami lost there defensive guru in Brian Flores

That was tough to watch

Thanks for the deep dive analysis - great stuff! Also, a special congratulations on spending so much time on this game and not once mentioning the butt-punt. That must have taken monumental restraint.

Got 2 minutes into this video before I realized I was going to hear garbage. They don’t have the answers to 17. The bills were 1 OL injury away from having our fullback playing offensive line, not to mention one of the OL that finished the game was playing on a torn ACL!

This is completely irrelevant but as an Oregon ducks fan it makes me so happy to see Jevon Holland continue to be the game-wrecker that he was at Oregon. The dude is a STUD safety and I love seeing him excel at the next level

So basically Josh is a high level madden player playing with his own character😭 God help us🤦🏿‍♂️🥲

My guess, before watching the video, is that you can't. The Bills possessed the ball for over 40 minutes and racked up yardage at will against Miami, despite the temperature difference working in Miami's favor. A couple of fluke plays didn't go their way, but there's clearly what Miami did against the Bills is not recipe for continued defensive success.

Love how the jump to Cover 2 is play calling sign language to the Bills saying "Welp, Allen earned my respect by torching my blitz. Fine. Load up the secondary. Keep the completions short."

WoW always loving all of the nerdy nuances. Stay safe Brett

Do you expect the Bills to try to run against cover 2 more often in the rematch?

Dolphins defense can be great at times but flawed at other times

this video aged poorly

The key to slowing down Josh Allen was 1.)100 degree heat. 2.) No shade on the Bills sideline. 3.) Having his starting Center hurt to start the game. 4.) Losing his starting right guard and right tackle by half time to injury. 5.) Also wide receivers having to constantly leave the game to get IVs in the locker room due to cramping from dehydration in the second half. Oh and by the way he still threw for over 450 yards. Do me a favor and redo this video on December 19th. The weather might be bad on December 18th, but at least both teams will be fully exposed to it.

Great video Brett as always. I’m wondering if you could do something on the Eagles Dallas Matchup that’s coming oct 19. Sunday night game.

Great video. Josh Allen looked a bit like the 2018 Josh Allen in that game. Was it down to the heat, the play calling, the back-up O-Line? Who knows. But if he weren`t great we would probably see this version more often. I am pretty sure other teams can dial up tricky Cover 2 formations on D? However Allen was not too bad in the rest of the games so far.

Finally? He's only been good 2 years. Worst QB in the league his first 2, and a rather disappointing 2021... but I still wanna know how to stop him now. After he's been so good this season and cuz of his good 2020 season.

Biggest issue the Bills had was being down to their #3 Center and backup RG and RT right around the time the Dolphins defense started to get pressure without 0 blitz. They couldnt even go under center because the Center to QB exchange was too risky. They had to have one of their OL play snaps with a torn ACL ffs.

Breakdown is alright, but offense was on the field 40mins, they had full drives the whole game resulted in miss kick, and falling apart in the redzone. Credit the dolphins or blame the circumstances regardless Allen was still making solid reads and good plays most the game 🤷‍♂️

Around 8 min mark: "Bills outright refuse to run the ball." You can say that about a lot of the modern offenses, with 'modern' OC's.

God, I hope Matt LeFleur and especially Joe Barry are watching and taking notes.

You need to make a video on Russell Wilson struggling this year. He's been awful to watch this year.

why didn't the DB communicate with the backside rusher to peel out with Knox so they are 1v1 (might not be the best matchup, but it's worth getting the +1 back imo) and the DB just come off the edge and replace the rusher's duties?

Yeah. Renovate your stadium, weaponize the sun, bring heat sickness upon your enemies.

The secret to stopping Josh Allen is, you can't stop Josh Allen. You can force him to make mistakes here and there, but you can't stop him. He's an absolute fucking unit

And just like that, Josh Allen is unstoppable again. Thank you, Brett. Bills Mafia is forever grateful.

Key to stopping Josh Allen? Have Patrick Mahomes on your team

Your guys's opinion of what's wrong with the Raiders offense

Ok, now let's make a The secret to (finally) slowing down Mahomes...

Tampa ran cover 2 shell with a man on Kelce and it worked great but not every has a d line like they had or linebackers who can run like they did. Cover 2 disguises with javon holland running laps is working great as a pats fan javon is amazing. Cover 2 being the primary coverage to stop 2 of the highest powered offenses in the league is funny to me, but what the chiefs have been doing this year is crazy. U almost need man corners with eyes in the back of their heads to dodge rub routes and picks

Can someone explain why the two deep routes on both the Andrews post and the Diggs post are basically mirroring each other? Wouldn't it be better for the outside receiver to run some sort of in or dig to give the slot receiver more space? For example if Andrews was the only deep receiver on his post Lamar has like 10 yards to play with to throw Andrews open. But the other go route makes that throw harder. Great video Brett.

With such high quality sports content on youtube, idk why anyone would ever watch the clown show that is the ESPN network lol

So after seeing Ken Dorsey’s reaction, it’s fair to say Josh Boyer won?

You talked about Miami having some answers last season for Allen? Didn’t Miami have a playoff spot on the line and Allen destroyed them so badly that he was able to rest the second half of the game?

Nerdy Xs and Os of football is why we come! Always Love the football content..and the alcohol drink content too comes in handy too lol

I don’t know how you can understand all these adjustments and play calls while watching live.

Bret couldn't a simple adjustment be on Miami's part, when someone is an motion the DB will pass it off to the DB on the other side that's blitzing and then the motion didn't help for the DB who was blitzing is on the line watching what the Motioner will do if he stays to block he blitz's if he goes on a route he follows him and the other DB that was covering comes off hot (or is that what the Dolphins did)

Brett is playing the Uno Reverse Card on his own curse for the Bills lol

I (we) need your analysis for Russell Wilson!! Whats going on?

as a bills fan great vid buddy can't wait until we hang 50 on the dolphins in the rematch lol

Well,that worked great for the Ravens…slowing down Allen

Brett can you do a video on why the Broncos Offense isn’t working?

Dude, the stadium looks like a ghost town ! I'd bet seats were cheap ?

The B roll is phenomenal. Of course the breakdown is too

Wow just before Bills vs Ravens!

The Dolphins won cuz the bills were missing 9 starters lol

We’re seeing more this year he’ll have a temper tantrum if he doesn’t a flag

brett i would love a why the seahawks d is so bad video because it is baffling

Can you please tell the dolphins this 🤦🏾‍♂️

Reminds me of the cardinals video last year, that and this one are fs some of my fav vids on the channel

The Kollmann curse will strike again

Brett, any idea on how to get Brandon Aiyuk sped up? lol

They definitely had my guy confused...

Finally my ass The Falcons kicked his ass last season

how to write off a vacation and football game with one yt video
