AFC, not NFL.  Still, that's pretty impressive.  Brown has always been good, but the Bills figured out he's not just a one trick pony (deep ball specialist).

If only we had a #1...

 

I kid, I kid, of course it would be nice to have another stud to complement Brown but after 10 weeks you can no longer say it's a fluke.  The dude can ball and isn't just a "deep threat."

Potential worry is that he will start to be double teamed and we have no real viable threat on the outside unless they can get Foster going. They’ve been using Mckenzie a lot but he’s not a real WR2 more of a WR 4

well, how do you get Foster going with ZERO offensive snaps?

 

Foster is the most perplexing player usage ever in my memory...too bad we don't get to see practice...

How is he making it to week 12 and not getting double-teamed already?

I don’t think he’s been considered a big enough threat? I mean I hope they don’t start... when Foster has played at the same time as Brown he has pulled coverage away from him due to his speed. But zero offensive snaps yesterday ...

 

but I think Knox can be utilized too on the outside

I'd think opposing teams would already see him as our only threat? I dont know.

 

Knox was the first thing that came to mind for me as well. Just like Kelce is the Chiefs leading receiver even though they have a ton of WR talent.

Yesterday was a big game for Knox...made some plays and NO DROPS.  If he becomes confident with his hands he has the potential to really hurt teams.

From what I've seen (watching on a TV in a crowded bar), most of his drops have come from a lack of concentration and thinking about turning up-field too early. If he can get past that, and that should be coachable, then he'll really be in business.

John Brown is a good WR1 or a great WR2.  He is not a take over the game type guy which causes defenses to do everything possible to stop him.  Still, he is better than expected.

Since the New England game, the prescription for beating the Bills' offense has been to play Cover three with man coverage on the outside.  That has meant John Brown just needed to be able to beat man coverage, which he can do against a lot of DBs.  If his success forces defenses to double up on Brown, or shift to more of a zone look, that will open up things somewhere else.  Hopefully, Josh will have the ability to make the reads and adjust.  That will mean opportunities for others.

Don't need a take over the game type. Need a move the chains type. We have that. Need more depth at WR though.
