I went camping with Josh Allen as a kid, met his whole family. He told my dad on that camping trip “one day I’ll play in the Super Bowl”. He may just do it!!
Maybe if he leaves Buffalo.

Maybe in his dream just another busts year for Buffalo bills.
Did he also touch you in camp. It's OK, we're here to listen
Josh was the most incredible QB to watch in college. For Wyoming fans at war memorial I don’t know if we will ever feel like that about a player again. Talking about him literally brings my grandparents to tears. It was so incredible to be a part of that group that rallied behind him. We all just felt so lucky because we know players like him don’t come around ever for Wyoming.
As a Fresno State graduate, the fact that we didn’t even give him a look is still a sore point for us!
I can imagine it would be. Gotta give the local kids offers. But one guy out of a couple hundred gave him a chance so you aren’t in bad company.
Feel the same way with Khalil Mack. Watching him at the University at Buffalo was like an anomaly on the field
Yeah it’s special when you a guy like that as a small school.
Agree, loved watching him play and what he became!
Hes a really easy guy to cheer for. This is the kind of guy I cant help but wish great success for year after year.
Just shows how wrong scouts can be… Brock Purdy too is a great example of a recent Qb that scouts dismissed
he went to Iowa state University
Purdy is not a good example. With this offense every QB will shine bright like the sun. Give Pudy WR from hell like Kadarius Toney and you will see.
@@JochenHeistermannKadarius toney 😂😂😂
@@JochenHeistermannno duh wrs make a qb better. Mahomes looks like a shell of his former self with those bums but we don’t say he’s washed
@@JochenHeistermann it’s true his team is great and so is his coach but you can’t deny he is a great Qb
It’s crazy that Josh allen literally gave me his game worn hat against the chiefs, it’s on my recent video too
shit kind of blows my mind sometimes how fkn great josh allen can be. just goes to show you that hard work and dedication are the biggest indicators of greatness, not raw talent. i hope the bills make the playoffs again and make another run for the lombardi.
But he has all the unteachable things though. You can’t teach 6’6” 245lbs and you can’t teach all world arm strength or 4.6 speed. Bryce Young may have worked harder and been more dedicated than Allen, but he isn’t a giant force of nature so therefore none of that matters.
@@axe2grind244 lol idk about that comparison. i don’t care who you put behind carolina’s line this year, that’s a bad season. yeah, josh allen is physically gifted, but he plays with grit, and i know he’s worked his ass off to get where he is.
As a Fresno State fan we fumbled the bag🥲
As a Fresno State and 49ers fan, I get double pain. He was a 49ers fan growing up, and the only game they scouted him, he laid a rotten egg.
9ers would have drafted him if we wouldn't have signed Jimmy G per Kyle Shanahan.
It's on RUclips.. smfh
Josh allen should have a Super Bowl in the next 5-9 years
Agreed
i think he could win this year as an underdog
@@shatslapsthe bills only have a 40% chance of making the playoffs
😂😂😂😂😂 thanks for the laugh. Maybe if he is backup on another team for Hurts, Mahomes, or Jackson, well then he could win a SB.

Josh grew up in Firebaugh, California. Firebaugh is 47 miles and almost a straight shot to Fresno State. Josh wanted to play for Fresno State and they would not even consider him. Quite a few coaches got fired over that.
My favorite QB, in todays era!!
Surprising to hear from Kansas. Thank you for commenting.
I second that motion-Josh Allen is "Awesome" 👍
Love my Quarterback!
Stay happy n healthy kid and take no prisoners.
Hilarious comment section with seething kids and fans of other AFC East teams calling him talentless. So far this season he has broken 3 records, he does this every year. Guy is amazing. Hope he can bring the Bills a ring one day. Go Saints
I usta Help My Dad At the Farm We Trained Race horses N it taught me a lot about life and myself And About A lot.Luv ya Josh God bless ya Buddy Go out there And do what u are destined to do.
Thanks - great story, great player. Note: Tim Couch's career was cut short by shoulder injuries - an injustice to compare him to Johnny Football, who did nothing as a pro.
4 years as a starter in d1 is big experience.
Reminds me of a little known player from Kutztown. Now a hall of famer
And this is the guy Nick Wright obsessively mocks
Would love to watch Bills and Allen live some day. International games would be my chance..one day!
I hope that you get your opportunity to watch him.
Crazy!!! I played aginst Reedly in JC in the 80's.... Glad Josh kicked ass
Josh was a tremendous talent. He could bull his way through a defensive line like a star high school QB should. It's just that NFL QB does that regularly unless he wants an early medical retirement. He could also throw the football into the next zip code. It's just it wasn't the zip code with the receiver in it. Josh's great strength is that he takes coaching well. A lot of new QBs think the entire NFL reality will warp itself around their talent. Example: Johnny Football. Josh didn't do that. Instead he grew up and grew more accurate and more discerning. It's not all wine and roses. Under pressure he still makes some rookie mistakes trying to make things happen when the Bills get stymied. Hence his appalling interception record. But he's slowly growing out of that.
If it weren’t for their great defence, the Bills wouldn’t do as well as they are doing. The quarterback gets all the glory for their hard work and skill.
Nice job some great video clips! GO BILLS!
Thank you Jeffery
Great quality work. Instant sub.
Thank you West Moast! Welcome to the club!
Josh Allen is a beast.
Josh "Arm Punt" Allen is pretty impressive!
Brady, Piazza, Edelman, Jokic, Purdy. Unicorns have always existed.
lol Brady and Purdy or Edelman definitely aren’t unicorns. Unicorns are majestic
I watched him play here in Reedley. I never realized he would make the pros.
Imagine if the Bills had drafted Josh Rosen instead of him...
The bills would be sad doo doo.
Would be the same shit show. Bills suck.
@@thehalftimeshowthe Bills are liquid diarrhea. Just fyi.
Yeah but that never happened so please don’t say that and having us fans thinking what if with that douche nozzle who said that there were 10 mistakes ahead of him
And there were people laughing at us for drafting Allen over Rosen in 2018 💀
Great work on this video.
Thank you Jade!
Which goes to show you the rating coming out of HS don't mean that much.
Heck yes. Josh Allen is proving all the haters wrong with his zero Super Bowl rings.
GO BILLS
Talented just need to have a good coach/system around him. Otherwise he try to carry the team behind his back 😂😂😂
Where is Rosen now
Derek Carr and Josh Allen are Central Cali legends.
Work with people that played ball with and against Josh Allen. They say he has always been a good guy. Helping old high school teammates to load up his trucks bed to just get them to practice and home.
Never heard nothing negative about him.
Josh did the work
@9:49 is randomly a clip of Philip Rivers throwing an incomplete pass to Michael Pittman Jr? Lol
lol fr
GREAT THUMBNAIL!
Thinking of making my own RUclips video on Josh Allen. I've started my own channel, and loved how he self advocated for himself. Would you mind if I used some of your video- mostly highlights.
Thank you. Hope you find success on your channel. Go look up the fair use guidelines. As long as you are abiding by the guidelines, help your self.
I watched the Bills lose 4 Super Bowls in a row. I hope they can win just one, but I won’t hold my breath and I don’t get my hopes up like in those days. Stats are for losers. Championships are for winners.
You are loyal. Thank you for watching and sharing your experience!
@@thehalftimeshow All Bills fans are loyal. 😇
Plz ❤ this halftime
Thx so mutch
Can you put me in a vid
Could you make a vid on Michael Pittman he plays for the colts
Much* on first comment
Please know this is all good bantering back-and-forth absolutely 100% nothing personal at least on my end. I respect you love your team. Here’s the bottom line. At least you and I are not cowboy fans lol.
Josh Allen has more class than Mahomes.
😂😂😂
It goes to show how people who are supposedly experts often really don't have a clue and indulge in a form of groupthink... like the Capitol Records executives who refused to release the early Beatles records in the United States because they had determined that "guitar groups are dead"!!
Sounds like alot of people screwed up. Oh well. Let's go Buffalo!!!!!!!!!
he’s the average villain in gotham and mahomes is batman
Josh Allen is a super QB , super star and he is going to be the best in a short time.
22 Jan 2024. It didn't happen for him today. Chiefs did it to the Bills again. Maybe next year.
It doesn’t matter, he was the 7th overall pick and was projected to go 1st the second the 2017 draft was over. Any QB that was given a projection like that is fully expected to be great. Didn’t matter Carson Wentz was a D2 QB, he was taken 2nd overall and that means you are 1000% expected to be the franchise QB.
You wonder about scouts. They whiffed on Aaron Rodgers early on also.
Thank God he didn’t go to Cleveland
Imagine what could've been
@@thehalftimeshow Buffalo Bills still would be an average team. I don’t think they would have won even 1 AFC Championship
Eastern Michigan withdrew their offer after he visited Wyoming? Are they friggin serious? Who the hell do they think they are? I guess we know why they're one worst programs in d1 history.
Right lol.
As a Fins fan.. it goes against everything I stand for when I say that I hope he gets a ring one day.. hopefully not with the Bills...
Im not a Bills fan but i cheer for them when they play couse of Josh.o yea...scouts know shit.lol
No ring, just a star. He can't beat Mahomes in the Playoffs #13Seconds
He’s a sand lot player in a fixed league
The new INT king
Please.
Didn't he grow up on a pistachio farm? Cotton farm wtf
I did not know he was a ZERO star recruit. Maybe because he has ZERO High School State Championships, ZERO college National Championships and ZERO NFL Championships. Someone got it right. He can throw the ball with the best of them. He can turnover the ball with the best of them but he does not and never will have the "IT" factor needed to be a CHAMPION.
I don’t understand the hate, why does he bother you so much?
@@thehalftimeshow no hate. I just do not believe in him. When things go bad he is not a leader
Bro your team was destroyed this year. Relax 😊
Bro? Bro? I promise you I’m not your bro. Oh, and I get your point about my team getting destroyed. It happens. But here’s the problem that I have. No one is touting my team has the best around. Please face it you’re a boy chokes in every big game he plays in. Oh well, look at it this way there’s always next year. Isn’t that what you guys have been saying for the last seven years? Josh Allen has been your quarterback?
Superstar ?? Turnover star more like it , has he even won a playoff game ?
Hahaha you can bait better then this bro
Turn over machine
He doesn't even lead the league in turnovers, lol. He does lead the league in TDs though, but clueless haters often forget that part.
@@TheY2G the most turnovers of any qb since 2018 til now with 86.
@@russellfrey4079 And 2nd most TDs by a QB in the same span, with 214.
@@TheY2G I use to like him until he knocked up a side chick and had it aborted. Flash back to the jim kelly days of being a a good qb but a trash person.
@@TheY2G For Allen, it's all or nothing.

Bills mafia El Paso Texas Jordon Palmer utep
Superstar? Allen hasn’t won or made a Super Bowl😂
Dan Marino is an NFL superstar without ever winning a SB. Crickets.
Back to a zero. Will never be able to win it all. Has already proven he CAN NOT GET IT DONE!
dan marino nevr won a chip
@@shells_cretaceous_creature9711 He's no Dan Marino! Far from it!!!
@@jdg62269youre right, marino couldn't run. he's better
How many Super Bowl rings does this guy have?
Answer: zilch
Tom Brady worst combine ever by anyone, 6th round pick ended up being best qb ever to play the game, Brock Purdy very last person picked in the draft… imagine how many players never get the chance to play that could of been great, just shows scouts don’t know shit about shit
Thanks for sharing Donny!
@@thehalftimeshow Go Bills , I been waiting since 1990, 10 years old watching Norwood wide right…. What really gets me is this, the Bills have been waiting a very long time for someone like Josh Allen, you would think the Beane and McDermott would put together a bunch of weapons for him, more then 1 star WR, get the OL better , hopefully Cook turns into a star RB but Allen needs more help imo
I'm sorry to say... If you want a Superbowl championship the Bills need to move to another city. Buffalo is cursed. Believe it! Buffalonians deserve a championship wether it be Football or Hockey. It just ain't gonna happen. It's my hometown. No, don't live there any more. Efin taxes and bad weather was too much.
Sad
Great profile, but Cam New-uhn?? REALLY??! Who says that?? How far our English language has fallen. . . .
Everyone has unique accents, we will work on improving our pronunciations. Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@thehalftimeshow Just razzing you. I don't know how this whole movement of omitting T's became a thing. But it's annoying. The name Colton has now become Col-uhn. Just, why exactly?
Dorsey got fired 3 weeks before making this video. Great research...
The video was made before that. We have a vault of videos. Boom chika boom 💥
Where are you crediting the original owners of the majority of this video or at least citing them? Plagiarist.
Do you watch RUclips?? Fair use.
"Superstar"? He hasn't won a Super Bowl or even been to a Super Bowl !
randy moss jim kelley
This didn't age well.
Hard to find Top 5 quarterbacks.
He’s good, but what has he won?
more than you
@@shells_cretaceous_creature9711 How do you not know I’m not Tom Brady?
He is absolutely not a superstar
explain yourself
cap....
💩
Superstar!?? lol ok
You must be a Jets fan lol
Name your team if you don’t think this dude is superstar
Nice ignorant hit and run comment, lady
Unless you're a Chiefs fan, he's better than your QB
3rd highest QBR in the NFL. Go back to playing with your Barbies.
You people make ne sick. He is so full of himself the mose conceited quarterback ive ever seen
With spelling like that I can't even take you seriously
We’ll find out tomorrow. Way too many mistakes
Superstar that has not won a Superbowl.
I guess everybody gets a trophy!
Top 5 qbs are virtually the faces of the league.
randy moss never won a ring
I only see a bust JA fool you at the end each year since he started. He became a turnover machine qb with post season or big game , he only beats easy team. The word Star is too far for him.
40 tds
Super star? How many rings does he have?
dan marino dont have a ring'
He's a bum. Turnover king. Can't handle pressure. King of cry babies and picking fights then hiding behind the refs. Completely classless as well.
lmfao superstar is far from what josh turnover machine allen is. never even been to a chip.... gtfo with this nonsense
dan marino dosent have a ring and brett farve has the most interceptions of all time
Josh Allen suck and the bills suck the chiefs are better team and I think the chiefs will go to the Superbowl and win it
“Best talents in the NFL”? A statement like that about Josh Allen shows you don’t watch the NFL. Dude lost at home in the snow in last season’s playoffs. He has been with the Bills his entire time, and they haven’t even made it to the SB.
Let me fix that line for you. “Josh Allen is one of many talents in the NFL”.
Rank your top 10 QB’s in the NFL right now. Curious to see if you know football.
So one loss defines a players whole career in a 11 on 11 sport....
@@jemariobradley9485 Knockout9446 is a clown. Allen has been the best player in the NFL since 2020 and anyone who is objective knows that. Unfortunately, the best players are not always on winning teams. Championships are team accolades, so some of the greats like Barry Sanders never had a title because of the team. Allen came into the league with a team of no names, no offensive lineman, a defensive coach, and Kelvin Benjamin as his WR1. Swap him with Mahomes and give him Hill, Kelce, Reid and a championship team and he's got rings easily.
Allen Since 2020:
The leader in Total TD by 18
Second in total yards by a few hundred which could change by years end.
Playoff passer rating since 2020: 123.5 and is 6th all time in the playoffs for his career. (Was #1 until Cinci game)
Leading the league with 80% of his teams total scores. 80%!
And the Bills have been the highest scoring team during that time. (thanks Josh...even with sitting out all those games late)
Since 2020 I believe Allen has 165 TD and the team has punted 175 times
Fantasy football is all about individual production and NOBODY has been more productive than Allen.
Finished 1st in 2020, 2021, was second in 2022 (with his shoulder injury), and is #1 again this year.
He's breaking records what seems like weekly and is ALWAYS in the MVP conversation. (should have had it in 2020)
The problem with Josh Allen? Coaching and his defense. The same soft coverage and prevent defense that is responsible for 13 seconds, is also responsible for all the other close games where Allen put the team on his back, gave them the lead late, and the defense collapsed. All anyone has to do is actually watch the games and not spout off about things they don't know about. You can even go back to the Philly game and watch how McDermott made mistakes with calling timeouts to freeze a kicker on a 59 yard try and then didn't go for it with 20 seconds left and a timeout. What did the defense do in OT? Played soft & lost.
Oh and about the turnovers? Yeah, he has a healthy amount of them, which I would take all day with the heroics that are not reflected on a stats sheet. So many first down conversions that would have been punts. For fun, his interception rate is better than Manning, Montana, Kelly, Marino, Aikman, Favre, Big Ben, etc.
Most talented player in the NFL.
Always, ALWAYS, amazes me how incredibly simple minded people can be. It takes a whole team to win or lose a game. Everyone on offense, AND everyone on defense. Including coaches who make the play calls. (especially)
"I hired Dale Earnhardt Jr to drive my 72 Buick in the last race and he lost. He sux!"
It's fine to debate who the "best" talent is. But no mistaking that he is at the top of the list.
hater
Superstar? No. More like bust.
Don’t know why you’re hating on a top 5 QB?! They don’t grow on trees.
Who is your team? Because 98% of the teams in the league are taking this guy. He’s an absolute dog
How?
In a sea of hater comments this is definitely the stupidest one
Nfl superstar who can't beat kc, and turns the ball over as much as Jameis Winston 😂😂
