Stads Posted August 14, 2019 Posted August 14, 2019 ESPN posted its 2019 stat projections for the upcoming season. How far off do you think they are on the following players? 1) Josh Allen 274/476 57% 3281 yards 17 TD/14 INT 100 carries 569 yards 7 TD 2) Lesean McCoy 139 carries 556 yards 3 TD 28 receptions 225 yards 1 TD 3) Devin Singletary 72 carries 319 yards 2 TD 14 receptions 119 yards 0 TD 4) John Brown 41 receptions 688 yards 16.6 avg 4 TD 5) Cole Beasley 62 receptions 676 yards 10.9 avg 3 TD 6) Dawson Knox 21 receptions 265 yards 12.8 avg 1 TD
Phil The Thrill Posted August 14, 2019 Posted August 14, 2019 If those are Allen’s stats in year 2, I think there’s reason for encouragement
LSHMEAB Posted August 14, 2019 Posted August 14, 2019 I think Brown's numbers are way too low. He's in a perfect situation with a QB who likes to air it out. Barring injury or Foster re-emerging as a go to guy, I expect him to put up 1000 yards and 8 TD's. 2
Rocket94 Posted August 14, 2019 Posted August 14, 2019 (edited) I feel that Brown will get closer to 800 yards and 7 TD's. Beasley gets 5 TD's. Yardage about right. I am thinking Allen throws for 20 TD's. The vertical game will open up. As far as the RB's are concerned, I expect Shady to bounce back some. Still hard to predict Singletary and Knox, though they will be heard from. Edited August 14, 2019 by Rocket94
RoyBatty is alive Posted August 14, 2019 Posted August 14, 2019 Overall those are darn good estimates but i agree with two other prior posters, more yards for John Brown, for Allen to get to 3218 passing yards i think Brown needs to get to 800 yards.
NewEra Posted August 14, 2019 Posted August 14, 2019 I think our WRs will have slightly higher receptions and yards. If John brown only has 4 TDs I’ll be shocked 1
MJS Posted August 14, 2019 Posted August 14, 2019 Seems pretty conservative. Those are like Tyrod Taylor stats with twice the INT's. The way Josh looks to push that ball down the field I would be surprised if he had only 205 yards per game. I'd expect him to be around 230 - 250 (3600 - 4000). That would rank him at 18th or 19th last year for yards per game. Rushing stats seem fine. I think he can get 20+ TD's. 20 TD's would have ranked Josh 21st last year, around Carr, Dalton, and Winston. 14 INT's seems about right to me. He's a risk taker. So I would project 3600 yards, 20 TD's, 14 INT's. Last year that would rank him 18th, 21st, and like 27th respectively in those categories. Not good enough, but improvement. 1

By the way, when you add up all the predicted receiving yards, it's still about 1400 yards short of Allen' s predicted total. So who's the mystery receiver with 1400? More than double of our best receiver? #math Edited August 14, 2019 by PromoTheRobot 1 2

The Frankish Reich Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 In other words, McCoy 4.0 yards per carry. Generic 3rd round rookie: 4.43 yards per carry.
Nelius Posted August 16, 2019 Posted August 16, 2019 (edited) Outside of Allen's passing yards I think that's pretty pessimistic all around. Beasley and/or Brown should definitely end up with more receiving yards. I mean who else is catching Allen's yards ESPN? The math doesn't check out, apparently there's another 1300 receiving yards or so somewhere on the roster that isn't worth mentioning. And I really think McCoy will do better than that this year. Wouldn't be surprised if Allen rushes for more as well. Edited August 16, 2019 by Nelius
