Allen became the first player in NFL history with four consecutive seasons of 40 combined touchdowns and the second quarterback to reach 50 career rushing scores.
I don't mind combined TDs as long as there's some context to it.they love adding COMBINED td's to measure a QB now
They never accounted it for Vick. Instead they scorched him for not being a pure passer. Now Allen is getting accolades for his rushing TDsI don't mind combined TDs as long as there's some context to it.
There was a graphic on Twitter this week that showed that Jalen Hurts has 15 rushing touchdowns this season.
But 11 of them were 1 yard runs.
That's not really indicative of a dual threat QB in my mind.
He's just "vulture-ing" TD opportunities that would have traditionally gone to a RB.
White or black, I think rushing yards matters more if you're a dual threat QB than touchdowns.They never accounted it for Vick. Instead they scorched him for not being a pure passer. Now Allen is getting accolades for his rushing TDs
They've been praising Lamar and other black QBs for rushing the past couple years.White QB doing things they dislike Black QBs for.
Am I conscious or am I reaching?

Because while touchdowns are important, they're situational and high variance. One year a guy can rush for 10 touchdowns, the next year it could be 3.
Lamar Jackson has 786 rushing yards this season -- that's 18th in the NFL -- more than Chuba Hubbard. More than Kenneth Walker.
Those rushing yards get you 1st downs and extend drives. That leads to winning football.
The touchdown itself is just the topper for all the work it took to get to the goal line.
Josh Allen rushing for 413 yards and 13 rushing TD isn't the same as Michael Vick rushing for 1,039 yards and 2 rushing TD.
Vick's 2006 season...or skill set depending on how you want to frame the point, was far more impactful from an individual standpoint.
K
more impactful how? in 2006 the Atlanta falcons had a 7-9 W/L recorded finished 3rd in their division and they had 25 ranked scoring offense they had the 27 ranked redzone offense vick and the falcons rb's had a combined 9 rushing td's on the season Josh Allen 13 and counting
Vick having more impact in 2006 then josh allen 2023 in what way selling jersey. getting Nike shoe deal's. getting his name dropped by rapper it's for damn sure wasn't' positively affecting a team offense
There's an active coli thread right now acting like they don't count for cam NewtonThey never accounted it for Vick. Instead they scorched him for not being a pure passer. Now Allen is getting accolades for his rushing TDs
If you didn't give a fukk about Trae Young being the first with 30 and 10 assists in 7 straight games, then you shouldn't give a fukk about this
