He was indecisive with no sense of urgency and often looked lost like a QB picked up over the waiver wire two or three weeks ago. His body language screamed "I have no confidence in myself".
That was their BACKUP QB . . . Sean Payton almost made the playoffs with 4 different starting QBs and the best of those was Winston. I do not consider his roster spot a failure of the front office because I don't think that any of them saw Cincinnati playing meaningful games in January this season. If he's here next season? Complete failure. This team is at a different level now, most likely will be for awhile and that level is too high for a stiff like Brandon Allen to reach.
Brandon Allen's game was the definition of impotent.
After he sacked himself with a toe step from the right side of our line... I started watching Wentz implode. Who wouldn't want to play Wentz and the Colts? (There were posts about not wanting to play the Colts in the game day thread.)
We definitely need a back up QB that can move the ball.
And we can't keep dumping picks on the OL without any return on investment. Some of these guys need to start playing for us, and not being a liability. I keep seeing us take a LT in the draft and moving him to RT.
