His QB Rating was dead on league average. Of the QBs who were top 20 in pass attempts, Allen had the 19th best completion %, only ahead of Trevor Lawrence, and 17th best YPA ahead of Rapistburger, Goff, and Lawrence.
He did have a monster postseason, though.
Allen was pretty mediocre his first two years, then blew up when the Bills got Diggs. He backslid a bit this past season when Cole Beasley hit the the wall. The one year he really played at an elite level, he basically had Top 5 outside and slot WR's.
Really, we're at a point where the game has changed and it's not a realistic expectation to think your QB is going to make decent WR's look good. In a lot of recent cases, it honestly seems to be the opposite.
