Dan Orlovsky was in no mood to accept an NFL executive’s criticism of Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen after he called him “overrated.”
“One of the more overrated players in the NFL,” the exec told ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. “Immense talent but he makes a lot of mistakes. He’s underdeveloped at winning at the line of scrimmage, tends to lock on to targets, more of a thrower than precision passer, forces throws into traffic.”
Orlovsky took issue with the comment, referring to the exec as “an idiot.”
However, fellow television analyst Nick Wright disagreed with Orlovsky’s defense and accused the ESPN personality of pushing false narratives.
“I heard [Orlovsky say] he’s two or three plays away from being in multiple Super Bowls,” he began. “What are the plays? Tell me. Tell me the two or three plays that put Josh Allen in the Super Bowl. Because I can go through the career.”
Wright then went on a rant about Allen’s playoff career, rightly pointing out that, in terms of plays, he has never actually been close to a Super Bowl.

The Josh Allen Argument Just Might Trigger Some Network Beef
The QB is 5-5 in the playoffs, and his only trip to the AFC Championship game ended in a 14-point loss.
The Bills have also missed field goals at the end of games in two of the last three playoff periods, yet they were both in the divisional round.
It would be interesting if Orlovsky were to respond, as fans could probably do with some FOX-ESPN beef, given the lack of any football right now.
Let’s wait and see.
