The NFL pundits talk about how players are evaluated for what they put on tape. Meaning, this is Allen's game for him to potentially secure another contract for the '22 - '23 season. This game is his taped audition for next season. The Bengals front office and coaching staff have a lot more to worry about in the present than next year's backup QB but I do wonder if a game like this eventually results in the Bengals keeping Allen around another season or using a later round draft pick to select another QB. Of course, they can always sign a veteran free agent to back up Burrow next year if they don't resign Allen or draft a backup QB.
He was good against Texans last year and they still had the massage guy.
