What your not interpreting is that he's the Bengals scrub and he's one play away from being a starting QB on a team that played in the SB a year ago. Every single rep he gets with the 1st team is huuuuge for him and the Bengals. Nobody claimed he's JB or close BUT there's not a person going into this season that felt they had a chance of winning even a game if JB went down and especially with the way Allen looked against the Browns last season in his start.
Fast forward to now and, as mentioned, every rep he gets establishes a bit more cohesiveness and timing with his OL and receivers. If JB misses a a couple games this season due to illness, a bad toe, a sore shoulder, tweaked ankle, etc. these reps he's now getting may be the difference in a couple wins versus losses.
