klos63 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 @RyanTalbotBills TEs have had success vs. the Jets. For that reason, @Gragg80 & O'Leary are Bills X-Factors: http://www.scout.com/nfl/bills/story/1628738-bills-week-17-x-factors-graggoleary I've never understood the emphasis on how TE's fare against teams compared to other skill positions. Do we follow stats on how WR do against certain teams. It's important, like any matchup, but just seems a little overdone. The top TE's generally play well as do the top WR's.

The top TE's generally play well as do the top WR's. the attention to TE's is special because it is significant. a team who can win the TE matchup wins the clock. teams who can win the clock usually win the game. a tight end not winning yardage not only means the middle of the field is soft and lb's are weak but it means you can set up a running game. plus the athleticism of a TE is hard to match. they're not quite WR's but they're closer to them now than they ever were. still part OL, though. athat list has good TE's, though. after Tye it goes from Good, Better, Best. Those last three are very good TE's and this does not make me believe Gragg will be all that amazing tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand what a good TE can do if he takes over a game, just like a good RB, or WR or QB. the attention to TE's is special because it is significant. a team who can win the TE matchup wins the clock. teams who can win the clock usually win the game. a tight end not winning yardage not only means the middle of the field is soft and lb's are weak but it means you can set up a running game. plus the athleticism of a TE is hard to match. they're not quite WR's but they're closer to them now than they ever were. still part OL, though. athat list has good TE's, though. after Tye it goes from Good, Better, Best.

It's the same as WR - can't cover Julio Jones, Dez, AJ Green, Sammy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted January 3, 2016 Author Share Posted January 3, 2016 Finishing with top run game important The Bills enter Sunday’s game with the top rushing attack and they’d like to finish that way coming out of their final game with the Jets. “It would be amazing. It would be amazing, especially with the group of guys we had carry the ball this year,” said Karlos Williams. “Some guys not here still, but the group of guys we’ve had running the football this year, Shady leading the way, it’s been amazing. So much to learn in this running back room and from this offense and from this coaching staff and I’m just happy to be a part of it.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
