buffaloboyinATL Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 I know Knox has become the whimsical whipping boy of the off season, but with his athletic abilities, his development could provide us with the best TE that we have had in years. I am kind of glad he has been thrown into first team reps, so that he can begin developing a rapport with Allen. 5

Would he be hit reaching out for the ball so he would not catch it? Possibly......to say he is going to take a head shot because he reaches out for a ball is bull####....you can clearly see that the way players are getting hit has changed now they they are making a emphasis on it...... I dont see what the big deal is.....he reached out and secured a ball that was not thrown to him perfectly which is exactly what a TE should do.

I've done 42 miles along the NH coast, Hampton Beach to Portsmouth and back. No hills. (That makes me a wuss too.) Plus I'm right around 315. Edited May 29, 2019 by PromoTheRobot

My best biking story was I did an 18 mile booze and bar hop bike ride just over 2 weeks after having knee surgery when I was supposed to not even ride a bike. Doctor was not happy with me...but hey, just told him it didnt really hurt...and he said "Of course not, you were drunk"...lol. I think I was more buzzed than drunk while on the bike itself, haha, but none the less it was a good day. Edited May 29, 2019 by Alphadawg7 1

OK....technically a football player could get hit on a football field and be injured even though it is illegal to target the head. Feel better?

I think the plan was to hope he learned from Kroft and was ready to be the lead dog his sophomore year. That process may now be accelerated. 1
NewEra Posted May 29, 2019 Posted May 29, 2019 He might have the highest upside of any TE in Bills history. That’s not saying much and is sad at the same time. Hopefully this kid can set the bar for Bills tight ends 1

Very few receivers can expect to take 3-4 steps fumbling for the ball in the middle of the field and not expect to get their world rocked, regardless of changes to the rule book.... 1

Buds and I did 700 miles in 11 days, two days over 100 miles... including 120 one day, the last 30 miles behind farm trucks doing 35 to 40 mph... I was done after that, spent a week on the beach.

If you are saying "rocked" equals "head shot" then I am going to disagree with you....... a. In a real game he probably doesnt do this b. Not saying he wouldnt get hit if he did.....but concussions are now a big deal in the NFL
