  1. Coleman has exceeded your expectations? I know he missed 4 games and I get that is point but the vast majority of his yards have been on scramble drill plays outside of the context of play structure. I would say Coleman would have been right in line for what I would have expected if he didn't get hurt. Right around 700 yards, which is about what I expected out of any rookie we drafted not just Coleman.
  2. I haven't read through 6 pages but come on. The Chiefs are 14-1. Their only loss was to the Bills. We were smoked by Baltimore so you can't even say that one but I guess the gist is we would have beaten the Rams/Texans if it wasn't for McDermott which I find ridiculous. I would like to see how aggressive he is in the playoffs vs the regular season. He is very aggressive in the regular season but I always feels like he pulls back in the playoffs(Hamlin Fake Punt notwithstanding)
  3. We can talk upside all we want, I totally get the upside argument but what more do you want from McConkey to show upside. He's literally 10th in the entire NFL in Receiving yardage, 8th for WR's and he also missed a game this season. Even if he had just 50 yards in the game he missed he'd be like 6th in the NFL in Receiving yardage. He's also tied for 14th in TD's and 15th in receptions. I'd kill for those numbers from Coleman in year 3 let alone his rookie season. The idea that McConkey is a finished product as a lot of people have said on this board is also asinine to me. As for the Shakir re-signing discussion, I would re-sign him solely because you are relying on a bunch of other guys to take big leaps. Cooper even if he is back will be on a shorter term deal which I don't think they are going to do unless the price is very right, Hollins will be no more than what he is now, Samuel is at most going to be an average player even if he gets healthy and Coleman may or may not be the guy in the future. I just can't bank on that Wide Receiving core without Shakir who has been the most reliable open WR this year for Allen. We can draft another guy or two in the next draft or two and hope they work out but I think Allen has a big time trust in him and would want Shakir back. The price obviously has to be right but I would get him back aboard especially if we are going to let guys like Cook and Johnson go in the near future which I'm not sure they would do.
  4. How is it likely? The Bengals still need to win, and have the Broncos, Colts, and Dolphins lose one. Sure the Dolphins and Colts are starting backups this week but the Browns are starting DTR who is awful and the Giants are starting Drew Lock. The Broncos are also most likely going to be playing the Chiefs backups for all or most of their game.
  5. The really simple question is knowing what you know now, would you rather have Keon Coleman or Ladd McConkey? Its that simple. Only a fool right now would take Coleman over McConkey looking back on it?
  6. At the end of the day, players are not pigeonholed like they used to be in one spot or another. You take the best player and you find a way to utilize him in your offense. Thats what great offensive coordinators do. The fact of the matter is you had him rated fairly low in your rankings(8th I believe) and he's and he's proving you wrong. Obviously the Bills didn't find him to be the best Wide Receiver. He's got the 3rd most yards as a rookie WR, at some point you just have to acknowledge that he's really good and would have been a good player for anyone including the Bills.
  7. He's always been overrated. He throws for less than 200 yards all the time and typically will throw for 1 TD and some sort of Turnover(s) mixed in.
  8. Yea someone else posted something idk kind of similar and I said this is the one team where the franchise QB wont win that battle when it comes to players and finances.
  9. Yes it was bitter cold and I usually sit in the lower bowl but I brought my gf/now wife to the game and bought extra tickets and we were in the upper bowl and the cold was unbearable but the game was worse.
  10. Had to actually look it up to remember Jets/Bills game in 1993 where it was 9 degrees with a wind chill of minus 28 Raiders/Bills Divisional game 1994 0 degrees with a chill of -32 2021 Bills Patriots Wind Game was pretty bad and I was much older Bills Browns 2008 MNF game. Two awful teams I missed the pleasure of the WC game against the Pats, the Colts game, The Giants game etc. Call me soft but as i've gotten older If I knew the weather was going to be absolute *****, I more often than not passed on going.
  11. Yea the Bengals need a ton still to happen to get in as the 7. Anything is possible but I wouldn't hold my breathe. Biggest first step is beating Denver but with KC clinched they should be able to get there in the last week. I also can't see the Dolphins losing either game but I suppose anythings possible.
  12. They don't really invest there in the draft that is the problem. They have only drafted 3 DT's in their what 7-8 years now. 2 of them were 3 techs(Oliver, Carter) and the 1 1 Tech was Harrison Phillips and they let him go. They just don't seem to want to put a premium asset into a 1 tech. Maybe that changes this year hopefully at pick 32
  13. Can they? Of course they can....Will they its to be seen and lets be frank none of this may happen. If the Steelers lose to the Bengals(possible) and the Chargers win their last two, the Chargers are the 5 and the Steelers are the 6th. Steelers vs Ravens can go a lot of different ways as we have seen.
  14. I think Reid just maximizes him and his speed. He gets him the ball in reverses and a lot of screen plays. I don't like his contact balance at all though. Anybody touches him he's going down he isn't shaking off any tacklers. He's a good fit for them and now that they have Brown back, traded for Hopkins, etc its opening things up for him even more.
  15. Just get rid of the football or take off and run and get what you can
  16. It’s one thing if they were but the Texans aren’t doing anything at all. LBs aren’t flowing downhill just standing flat footed
  17. Their defense isn’t even trying
  18. I get that but your struggling , going into the playoffs on a multi game losing streak losing to other playoff teams with no momentum sounds like a recipe for disaster
  19. Guess I was wrong Houston looks like they could care less and are getting slapped
  20. The Texans have pride and have not been playing well. I don’t know if they win but I expect them to put up a very strong fight today.
  21. My mindset is we weren’t getting the one seed, I wanted the Steelers to win to hold off the Ravens
  22. I always thought the bigger game was the Texans beating the Ravens so hope for that. Keeps Baltimore in the WC and then would give the tiebreaker over Baltimore for the 3 seed if they finished tied
