He may be 'open' but the QB has to find him, rather than automatically knowing where he'll be...

KD in CA Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 2 hours ago, FiftyPercent said: He has no balls/awareness when it comes to fighting for the ball. If he was more aware on the sideline INT he could have pulled the DB out of bounds before he got the second foot down, or at least tried to. He looks like a 13 year old girl out there too many times. Go watch some clips of Eric Moulds, you'll see what I'm talking about. But wasn't he fighting for the ball, and actually had his hands on it as the DB was coming down? According to the explanation on the broadcast it should have been ruled in incompletion. I can't believe people are blaming that play on Jones moreso than Allen. But no argument that Zay is a below par player and simply not good enough to be a starter. As a second round pick he's been a big disappointment.
Alphadawg7 Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 11 minutes ago, whatdrought said: I think "should have prevented" is a little strong. Should have tried to prevent is more accurate. Agree. Definitely not fair to say that Zay should have prevented either or even both INTs. However, the continued lack of awareness and lack of effort to make much of an attempt to prevent them is more the issue, and that criticism is fair like you said. Like I said before, I just don’t think Zay has the mental toughness to be a quality and consistent player. He lacks situational awareness, toughness, and fight.

But I feel like people are placing their anger towards Zay instead of Allen for this game I think the general consensus is that Allen cost us this game, but has shown enough to deserve more chances, whereas Zay in his third year now has shown zip. Also, Allen has failed from almost trying to do to much, where Zay at times seems to not be making the effort (like coming back and contesting balls.) 1
wettlaufer Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 2 hours ago, Lurker said: What ya talking about Willis? Jones had regained his stride and was running free at the ten. He appears to panic and jump for the ball even though he didn't have to, making the catch attempt much more difficult than it had to be.... I think the issue here is he thought it was a post but the toss goes to the back shoulder. His adjustment was pretty rough. Knox made that catch yesterday on that pass to the left sideline.

Many can do it even when blanketed by a defender. Jones seems to trip all over himself at times and not have much physical (or mental) agility... 1

billsfan_34 Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Wanna know why? Because he just isn’t very good. Cant break tackles or get any YAC, hands are mediocre at best, and his route running is just ok. He also lacks speed. It isn’t the kids fault but we drafted him to high.

Canadian Bills Fan Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 We have a player named Zay on our team? 1
billspro Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 5 hours ago, Virgil said: Can someone please tell me what Zay did, or didn’t do, yesterday to call for the hate? I see people saying cut him immediately. I can’t remember a play with him where I thought he was the reason we sucked. The guy isn’t even out there that much. Overall, he hasn’t lived up to his draft status and physical traits, but I don’t see how yesterday was the deal breaker. What am I missing? I’m just tired of watching him not make a play for his QB when they need it. We needed him to catch that low one or break up on of the ints.
BananaB Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 He needs to be wide open with an absolutely perfect ball thrown to him to make the catch, and still sometimes that isn’t enough.

Bills fans said he wasn't worth a 2nd round pick. That's all they did was call shows and say he was a blocking receiver who adds no value to the receiving corps. Holy revisionist history. Gugny used to say Woods was better than Watkins. 1 1
Kelly the Dog Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Zay has gotten way better, he made a quantum leap from historically abysmal to just plain horrible and worthless. 1 1
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Its his third year, a starting receiver has ample time to improve by this point. And he hasn't...we overdrafted him!
transplantbillsfan Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Zay sucks. He never... NEVER EVER comes down with a difficult but catchable pass. He failed to do it twice AGAIN yesterday!!! Once in the End Zone. Once on the low but catchable pass to him. He was advertised as a sure-handed WR out of college. He clearly isn't. He's had 2+ seasons. Time to move on.
