The RPO created a lot of easy throws for him especially across the middle with linebackers playing too shallow because of getting sucked in. It reminds me of Nick Foles in a sense, mainly in that outside of him running a variation of RPO last year and with Kelly one year he has been an average to bad QB. I think defenses catch up with the RPO soon and then you have to question where that leaves you with some of these guys. This really isn't anything new, but it can be overcome. See Case Keenum, in the right environment he has succeeded after coming out of an air raid offense that doesn't tend to translate well to the NFL it has just taken him a couple years. 

Side note, I think Josh Allen is underrated a bit actually. I believe he played in a more pro style offense than people give him credit for because of some of the window dressing they did to cover up short comings of their players around him. He makes a lot of NFL throws in their system which is what surprised me watching him, he will throw a 15 yard out to the far side of the field. There aren't a ton of QB's in the NFL that will even attempt that throw because of just the sheer arm strength it takes. He does a little of the RPO but most of his stuff are 3 read progressions with layers of reads.

Josh Allen Is criminally underrated. U don't replace that kind of offensive talent he lost last year at that type of school. And his receivers dropped passes. But Mason did all that, but he has the mental capacity to play in any system imo. He's very intelligent. It will leak out after combine what they thought of his football iq bc from a talent prospective he's first round. It's just nobody knows if he can get past that second read understanding wise in a NFL offense. He's definitely not a start right away guy. Where he goes is super important.
