Josh Allen audible ignites NFL debate: Did he say Taylor Swift or

NFL fans are divided over whether quarterback Josh Allen yelled "Taylor Swift" or "J.R. Smith" during a play in a recent game. The debate has sparked discussion on social media.

There is a heated debate among NFL fans regarding a new controversy that has emerged. It all happened during the "Thursday Night Football" game between the Bills and the Buccaneers. Quarterback Josh Allen was caught on mic giving an audible call before a play in the first quarter.

On a second-and-10 play, Allen could be heard yelling a new call to his team, which some fans believe was "Taylor Swift." This speculation stems from Swift's current popularity in the football world due to her romance with Travis Kelce. However, there are others who are convinced that Allen was actually yelling the name of former Knicks guard and 2016 NBA champion with the Cavaliers, J.R. Smith.

While this debate may not reach the viral levels of previous controversies like "The Dress" in 2015 or "Yanny or Laurel" in 2018, it still managed to set NFL social media ablaze during the first half of the game. People were questioning the words being yelled, and some were firmly entrenched in their beliefs.

One user on social media asked, "Is Josh Allen saying 'J.R. Smith' or 'Taylor Swift'?" Another user humorously predicted that this debate would become the new version of the infamous black/blue dress discourse.

Opinions were divided, with some users adamantly claiming that Allen was saying "JR Smith," while others were convinced it was Taylor Swift. One user even argued that certain people wanted it to be JR Smith, but in reality, Allen was referring to Swift.

Adding to the intrigue, in the second quarter, Allen definitively called an audible with the words "LeBron James." This further fueled speculation as Smith and James were teammates when they won the 2016 NBA title together. It's possible that Allen simply wanted to use former Cavaliers players in his calls at the line of scrimmage.

Ultimately, the truth behind Allen's audible call remains unknown until the quarterback himself reveals the actual word he yelled. Until then, fans will continue to debate and speculate on this NFL controversy.
