Yardage Predictions for Bills Receivers in 2024
Big Turk replied to hondo in seattle's topic in The Stadium Wall
He did actually...first 6 games he had 17 catches for 118 yards and the last 11 he had 56 catches for 555 yards. If you project his last 11 games over a full season it comes out to 86 catches for 935 yards. -
Yardage Predictions for Bills Receivers in 2024
Big Turk replied to hondo in seattle's topic in The Stadium Wall
Not really...If you simply take Shakir's totals once he became an actual part of the offense starting week 6 against the Patriots and extrapolate his totals from then to week 17 over the full season, he would have almost 900 yards receiving without doing anything more than he did over the last 11 games of last season for a full season. First 6 games he had 4 catches for 40 yards. Last 11 games he had 35 catches for 571 yards. Extrapolate that last 11 game stretch over a full season and you get 54 catches for 882 yards. That's just doing what he did last year. Only had 5 targets or more 3 times in a game all year...6 twice and 5 once. All the others were 4 or less, including several with 2 or 1. His season high snap percentage was 37% twice in back to back weeks against the Broncos and Jets and he had 9 games with 20% or less, including 6 games with 14% or less and 2 games in the single digits. He will get far more playing time this year. It seems pretty likely Shakir will get more looks and more passes thrown his way then he did last year and he looks better and better every game. He is going to have a breakout season, IMO. Wouldn't be surprised to see him have 1100+ yards. -
he was 4th in rushing and 6th in yards from scrimmage in the entire NFL last year and basically played part time. Also averages 5 YPC for his career. So yeah, I'd say that isn't too far away.

Yardage Predictions for Bills Receivers in 2024

Shakir is going to breakout with a 1K+ season. Even if he just kept his pace up once they actually started to use him last year over the course of the season, he would have well over 900 yards for a season. He should do far more than just keep his pace up last year...he should well exceed it. Kincaid likely around 900 yards, +/- 100 yards. Samuel probably in the 700 range, Coleman 500-600 range -
They are picking up the 5th year option for Rousseau for 2025...that would likely push an extension for him into next offseason. Brown has no 5th year option as he wasn't a 1st round pick.

Spencer Brown extension incoming?

I work remotely but have met the team I work with several times and get along well with most of them. In general, we work very well and efficiently together and communicate all the time thru various teams channels, video calls and meetings.

Maybe they have the finer details the sites don't?

Who is on your All-Time Buffalo Bills Mt. SHUSHmore?
Big Turk replied to BuffaloBillyG's topic in The Stadium Wall
"Mayhem" Maybin would be at the top of mine, if only for having to watch his on field performance(when he got on the field that is) AND listen to his God Awful rap song. A Double Whammy of terribleness so to speak. -
Kincaid will likely be added to that after this season and Cook isn't far away.

Dalton Kincaid/Dawson Knox.....over/under 110 combined receptions??
Big Turk replied to Special K's topic in The Stadium Wall
Well, what I meant was that we need both Kincaid and Knox to stay healthy because I don't think Kincaid is getting that many targets, although if nobody else steps up, he very well could be Allen's favorite target. -

Big Turk replied to Special K's topic in The Stadium Wall
If Knox stays healthy well over. -
Has he gone the route of so many OLineman and dropped like 100 lbs by eating normally? I remember in an interview with one of the ones that dropped a ton of weight (Joe Thomas maybe?), they asked him how he lost weight so quickly, and he said "Oh it was super easy...now I only eat when I'm hungry instead of forcing myself to eat to keep my weight up". Basically those guys are literally force feeding themselves on a daily basis...

How would Buffalo perform with Kirk Cousins?
Big Turk replied to Mikie2times's topic in The Stadium Wall
We wouldn't have made the playoffs 3 out of the last 5 years. -
Not true...Quito, Ecuador is only 16 miles from the equator but because of it's location in the mountains it stays relatively mild all year with high temps in the upper 60s and lows in the upper 40s pretty much year round. It was founded in 1534 by the Spanish Conquistadores. Also in Ecuador is the city of Guayaquil which is 152 miles from the equator and the main port city of almost 3 million people. It was founded in 1542 as a port city and almost immediately began booming in population and a center of trade. Temps there are warmer but not unbearable with year round highs in the mid to upper 80s and lows in high 60s to low 70s. Same with Bogota, Columbia which is about 300 miles from the equator but again due to it's locations in the mountains the temps are almost the same as Quito year round. It was made the capital of Columbia in 1821.

Buffalo has been replacing low paying blue collar jobs with higher paying IT jobs for a while now. Numerous companies have moved their tech hubs to Buffalo and even more are coming. Why? Because Buffalo and the WNY region has an abundance of high quality software engineers that the rest of the country is starting to figure out that largely hasn't been tapped yet. These companies can pay significantly more than what most people make here but significantly less than what they would pay someone in say Seattle or San Fran or Houston for example. It's a win-win for both sides. Fun fact...the person who invented React, a very popular front end JavaScript framework/library used by millions that was created by Facebook(now Meta) is from Orchard Park. So even if people want to say the job market is stagnant, which it really isn't, the overall pay for those same number of jobs is going up and continues to rise. And the only sources I found that showed the cost of living was higher in Buffalo were places like Forbes that had seemingly nonsensical data showing that the average house price in Buffalo was 483K(it's more like 275K) and that a gallon of milk here costs $4.70(it's more like $2.69). All the other sites showed Houston is somewhere between 8-15% more expensive which only makes sense considering the housing payments alone will likely be close to double there. And like everywhere down south the cost of groceries there about forces you to have to have a second job just to feed your family every month. Everytime I go visit relatives in South Carolina I about cry when I walk into the stores to get food for the week.

I can believe it...in May alone this year, Miami had more hours with a heat index over 108 than any other entire summer besides last year's summer. So before summer even started, they literally shattered extreme heat records for every year on record other than 2023. Absurd. It also beat the earliest occurrence of this by over a full calendar month, with the earliest it happened prior being end of June, which was the only instance of that...all the rest were July, August and early September. The heat is starting to build to extreme levels in these places like Florida and Texas well before the start of summer now...going to become unlivable at some point if this continues.

I've never had any issues getting a job...in fact the last 2 jobs I have taken, I was happily working elsewhere when I got recruited and both came with 20K raises plus bonuses. I suggest the issue is more the type of career field people choose to be in and less the job market. If people choose to work dead end careers or factory jobs that are going the way of the Dodo Bird, then yeah, I could see that. If you are working in an in demand field and are good at what you do, you'll likely not have too big of an issue finding a job.

It's cheaper to live here than it is down there...probably by quite a bit...every time I go to the grocery store when I am down there I about have a heart attack. Have to get a 2nd job there just to buy groceries. Don't worry...I'm not moving anywhere where I need to wear a coat in winter and have to live indoors in the A/C for 5 months out of the year. If I have to deal with that type of heat, I'm not dealing with the cold too. I go for Victor and Canandaigua...love that area.
