  1. I do agree here. The value the Bills put of run blocking WRs may be higher than any other team. I do think they need to readjust their thinking a bit. With what Hawes brings to the table as well as Kincaid improving as a blocker running 2 or 3 TE sets is, I believe, our best group personnel wise. The trick is that those WRs that run block well HAVE to also be adept at getting open and catching the ball because if they aren't it tips off that a run play is coming when they are on the field. Gabe can do that. Mack did that. Keon struggles at it. Shavers struggles at that.
  2. Taking out my "WR cryptic decoder ring": Keon Coleman is happy that it's getting closer to Black Friday so he can catch a good sale on a puffy coat at Burlington Coat Factory. His agent is letting him know that time is just ticking away until those sweet deals are on the shelf. They have to prepare a month early because Coleman is so slow he may miss out...
  3. I've said the same on multiple occasions. Usually leads to people responding to it with a video of him hitting a deep ball. The thing is, in the videos it's always John Brown or Robert Foster catching them. The common theme there being that neither is on the roster. Now, I agree. He has always struggled on ball placement deep. What compounds the issue is that the Bills haven't made a priority of finding guys that are good deep ball trackers. I'd love to see one season where Josh has a guy that can absolutely blow past DBs deep. Get a guy like Shaheed where Josh can just lay it as deep as possible and the WR can run and go get it. Unfortunately, I don't see it happening. At his season ending presser after (I believe) the 13 seconds game, Beane was asked about getting a WR with speed. He had this whole big response with him saying to the effect of "We would love a guy with speed like Hill. But they don't grow on trees. If you guys know where I can find one let me know." Then a few years later he's got someone with legit game changing speed in Worthy sitting on the board when he picks. So, of course he trades out and grabs the human sloth in Coleman. In fact, I can't remember Beane ever taking a speedster WR. Even as a late round dart throw. Even back to his Carolina days, Benjamin and Funchess were the big WR picks. No speed.
  4. No, Jim. We indeed have a receiver problem. No one can get open, which also forces us to turn to the run. I fear that soon that will lead to a RB problem because Cook is taking a lot of hits and we have no capable RB behind him to take some of the early season wear and tear off. We are one dimensional with the most gifted QB on Earth. It's like taking the tires off a Ferrari and replacing them with sandbags.
  5. What's this now? Coleman was still playing very late in last weeks blow out win. It also looked like he wasn't in very early. I think Coleman is a candidate to be inactive on gameday in the near future. Maybe not this week, but seeing him held out as a healthy scratch by Thanksgiving is definitely possible IMO.
  6. I think what compounds the issue is we had a front row seat to the Patriots dynasty for so long. We watched it hoping one day we would find our franchise guy and be "the team". Only to see the Chiefs rise just as the Pats fall. It never ceases to amaze me how a 110 pound pop star can own so much real estate inside so many grown men heads. Pine tar using bastage... I never hated the Patriots during that time. I hated the Bills for fielding such an inept team year after year. Heck even the Jets and Dolphins would pick up a win against em here and there.
  7. Not loving a kicker with a lower leg issue.
  8. Pope Leo probably has a better 40 time than Coleman. Git er done Beane!
  9. Chiefs coming off a short week and have to travel. I think the Bills win this one. Bills-27 Chiefs- 16
  10. Well, it's kinda like getting sick of a bologna sandwich. You can't stand to even look at it. Then you're served a steady diet of 💩 sandwiches. After a while bologna sounds pretty darn good
  11. Congratulations to him. Not a big surprise. Definitely earned it.
  12. About 425lbs is my guess. And probably still faster than Coleman
  13. Best of luck to Pittsburgh and Denver. I'm rooting for you guys here...
  14. Lions just keep handling out huge contracts.
  15. The savior has returned...lol
  16. He did. And traditionally, the Bills use Gilliam a lot against KC. I expect him to see a lot of snaps on offense. Would love us to really dominate on the ground this week. Impose their will. Gilliam and Hawes just pave the way for Cook.
  17. Valid. But we heard the same about trading Diggs. If a team makes an offer that's good enough they won't sweat it.
  18. I voted other because there was no "all of the above" option.
  19. For those that don't click Twitter: Tommy Akingbesote is who they signed. 6'3" listed at 306lbs. He was actually a 7th round pick by the Cowboys. And for those that need his Carolina Panther history....he spent 15 days on their PS in earlier this year.
  20. Honestly, I think Kumerow would see significant snaps if he were in this WR room.
  21. I just hope they have a fun time and make new friends.
  22. Davis is a 6'7" 325lb former second round pick of the Dolphins in 2020. I believe he signed with Indy in the off-season. Really struggled with the Dolphins.
  23. Beanes gonna sign Beckham and be like..."BOOM I DID IT". And then we get to hear everyone talk themselves into it being a great signing. Added bonus, was handed a 6 game PED suspension a few weeks ago.
