Bleeding Bills Blue

Or does he just sign with the chiefs because he played there the last 4 years and he's a free agent?

I'd toss a late pick for someone like Mike Purcell. End of roster 1T who might look better with better players around him and an upgrade over what we have on PS. Also cheap.

The plan against Tyrod hasn't changed much since 2015. Make him play quarterback. Contain, muddy up the reads, and he will hold the ball. He's elusive when moving up field but he doesn't have the arm to make splash plays while eluding pressure behind the LOS. So you're either sacking him, or pressuring him into trouble. Put it this way - with normal to good offensive lines... he's sacked at an 8-10% clip. With the Giants offensive line you would expect more.

I do find him to be a plus blocker, and he brings a physicality that our offense needs at times. Him, Kincaid, Murray, and Harris are really there to bring more of a physical element to our attack. The overall team softness was something that needed to be upgraded between offensive line, pass catchers, and backs. I think he also offers some of the red zone athleticism you want in a TE but I agree I probably wouldn't build my offense around him.

They run them... they just aren't always thrown. On 19 targets... that's a bit of a small sample size.

Very likely why the average target depth for knox and kincaid are so incredibly low. Chipping affects your route depth.

I think a defensive lineman can come into the DT rotation and make an impact with DQ out. You have a couple weeks to see how ford and settle handle it, but thats a position where its usually pretty straight forward. There's stunts and twists but... your job is to go after the ball.

Kids fast as hell and has shown some really good vision. Beyond just the breakaway speed though he is really difficult to tackle. Mostert is a good player, but i think achane has looked more decisive and explosive so far. Mostert also has 10 fumbles in about 600 touches, and has missed a lot of time. But Achane with a full head of steam has been lethal in those outside looks the last few weeks.

Can he just make it to week 17? He's holding my fantasy team together at this point. Between the eagles, the 49ers, the chiefs... even the lions, bengals, bills, cowboys, and jags. It's clear that being strong on offense and defensive lines makes everything work easier on either side of the ball.

I wouldn't offer a 2nd for both of them. Suttons overpaid, and Jeudy has never proven to be worth where he was drafted. Sutton is basically Gabe davis - so not sure what the appeal there is as they basically have the same function, he drops plenty of balls, and isn't as good of a deep threat. Jeudy is interesting, but he comes with a 5th year option at 13M in cap space - so you'd be choosing him over Gabe basically. With our cap situation, you almost have to extend him so its not even a win now trade.

Teams traditionally in white have the disadvantage of the opposing team being able to wear white gloves and potentially get away with holds here and there. I doubt they'll have red gloves, so tactically it is... "an advantage" i guess?

He looked good but he didn't seem like a first team all-pro type player til several years in. Elite level instincts, but you need time on the field and in the film room to really use them. I hope they use Williams more once he gets a full week of practice with the 1's, dodson just doesn't have it to play will.

I just don't understand. Stagger the games, work with bye weeks or thursday games, and give no one an advantage.

I mean... they had a 2 week stay...

Just like the QB occaisionally sailing them. It was unfortunate. 1st quarter. Allen rolled right and threw it fairly low, but what felt like catchable. I'd have to see the play to confirm full on drop or not, but they didn't show like any replays on TV.

I feel like this happens a bit more than we think - but it's usually within some element of the play. Turning a slant up field because of where the LB is, or heading to the sideline and hoping that he sees you at the right time.

I've been trying to look at it like... we aren't the favorite anymore. It's hard to say if we ever were, but right now we're going to go into games against philly, KC, Cincy etc as a dog. Here's the thing, we're still learning to play a brand of football that makes you hard to play against and it'll develop over the season - not in a couple of games. This game showed me that A- We have a long way to go in our rushing offense and B- Allen can still absolutely turn it loose and make aggressive plays. Defensively we showed against miami that we're able to get a little creative, and we're already having to lean on depth. In the same way that we're developing our offense, the defense will have to do the same - next man up mentality, but you have to be willing to play this physical brand of defense. If we end up a wildcard - so be it. Be that wildcard that nobody wants to play. We play a physical brand of defense that can cause turnovers - thats a way to beat some of these teams. Offensively we want to be able to beat you however you decide to line up, and i think the bills have a lot of ways to beat a team. I don't love Dorsey, and i think unfortunately he's still learning... but i think there are probably greener pastures ahead.

This is where I'm at. He's been here all year, he's played in this league before, he's capable of better. He seemed to say the right things after the game, and knows he's not getting it done. Get back to work mentality.

Drops were big. Secondary was poor. Linebackers need to tackle better. Penalties everywhere. And u start a Harty thread after he actually has an OK game on the likely limited snaps he got. Okayyyy? I guess he muffed that punt but its a ***** spot, u can't let it bounce in case it goes backwards and u lose time.

Gonna go with Kincaid. Playing him in fantasy so I assume he'll have his breakout game against me 🙂

Its a depth piece. Expiring deal and see if he fits, basically 0 trade comp. If he doesn't fit or play well its easy to either dump him this year, or let him walk in FA.

I doubt he plays much at all. They have Hill and Waddle - both quick and fast guys who stretch a team. Chosen Anderson can spell them and provide similar field stretching ability and depth that doesn't change what they want to do offensively. Berrios and Wilson are slot options. He's #6 and doesn't play special teams so i would assume he doesn't dress right away and is there as depth for long term injury, and potentially as a contested catch receiver if that becomes something they want to use.

Hes big and rangy in the middle - in tampa 2 you have to be careful when attacking the seams and he does more to discourage you to throw in that area than actually breaking up plays or creating turnovers. Tampa 2 has holes though, namely underneath short, out routes, and deep crossers because it'll require that deep middle LB to follow. I noticed on a deep crosser that he didnt have enough depth to break up one - he knew the crosser was there but he didn't play it deep enough to impact it. Trying to discourage the throw more than actually being able to do anything with it. You ask a lot of the player in that situation, and he is a fit for what Eberflus wants to run. He just needs more from the front 4 and safeties to actually be able to effectively run that scheme. A team with a good offensive line is going to attack you with the run game, and create space behind the LBs in play action.

3200 yards passing and 15 TDs just doesn't scream... good QB.

Pure mercenary QB for a paycheck.
