Yes, that changes things. I guess if you are looking at that time and downs. In the grand scheme of things it changed nothing. We have had our share of game losing fumbles(mckelvin). This was not one of them. More of a teaching moment. Hold on to the damn ball kid kinda thing. 10 minutes ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: We went on to win the game, because Miami. But it was closer than it should have been. And against a good team like Tennessee or the Seahawks, Yeah. Turnovers swing the game. But isn't Miami the team to beat in the division? 🤔 😁
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 (edited) 11 minutes ago, Over 29 years of fanhood said: it looks like to counter the Bills 11 and 10 personnel, teams are playing nickel/dime cover 2/3/4 and giving the run. If the went 22, I’d expect subs to match it. Knox vs. Smith (or whoever we had when knox had covid) is a big upgrade though. Can play some snaps like the patriots did with develin/burkhead/gronk - spread them out wide and pick your favorite matchups. Basically forces them to play man, or show blitz. I liked the DS/Moss on the field at the same time sets too. Edited November 5, 2020 by dneveu

Diggs Brown Beasley Singletary Moss Davis McKensie Kroft Knox If you're running 2 TEs, it means someone else is seated. Nothing wrong with that. Besides, not every player you listed is getting 100% snaps.

The point is: are your best players on the field, or are they on the bench? Which players are you going to put on the bench so we can run a 0-2, 1-2, or 2-2 set? Did you like seeing Lee Smith or Pat DiMarco split out wide? 1
Freddie's Dead Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 Dude needs to get on the JUGS machine 90 mph settings so he stops dropping Josh Allen's fastball. I want to love Angry Run, but he needs to take care of the rock.
Royale with Cheese Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 He just loses focus. He's letting them go through his hands and not usually drop as in brick hands....like soap hands.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 Would anyone dare start Knox in fantasy? I have Kittle who is out, and the pickings are slim on my waiver wire (like Tyler Eifert is the highest rated available guy).

I don't think Knox is the cause or the solution. 13 minutes ago, Freddie's Dead said: Dude needs to get on the JUGS machine 90 mph settings so he stops dropping Josh Allen's fastball. I want to love Angry Run, but he needs to take care of the rock. Apparently he bought a JUGS machine and did like 200 or 250 per day. To which I say where were they? Because the "over the head" catch seems to be his new struggle. 2

Which players are you going to put on the bench so we can run a 0-2, 1-2, or 2-2 set? Did you like seeing Lee Smith or Pat DiMarco split out wide? Of course not. Also, Knox & Kroft are not Smith & DiMarco. You can have a 2 Tight End set on running plays as well. Just because you run a 2 Tight End set now and then, doesn't mean that players like Diggs, Brown, Beasley or Davis are all on the sidelines. If any of our wideouts have to sit out for one play during the entire game, I can live with that.
Royale with Cheese Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 I hate is drops but at least when he's on the field, you do have to give him attention. He does make big plays too. 1
hemma Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 I'm more excited about Hyde being back & presumably healthy/rested because he'll need fresh legs. 1
CincyBillsFan Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 The reason this is great news and important to the Bills future: * Despite the drops, on paper Knox remains the most dangerous receiving TE on the Bills. His speed & athleticism force D coordinators to account for him in ways they don't need to for Smith & Kroft. Knox has the potential to have a big pass catching day against the Seahawks. * The Bills need to know if Knox is a star at TE. They can't find this out if he doesn't play. If Knox doesn't pan out the Bills will have to address the TE position in free agency. If he does pan out they can use the TE free agency spot to fix some glaring needs on defense. 4

I remember thinking it as a W before the fumble and it still was after. Maybe he meant fantasy football game.

We could likely draft a kid like Kyle Pitts with our top pick unless you think we should draft a LB or CB in Round 1? 1
Mrbojanglezs Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 A healthy knox is good he is a cover 2 beater, may get the zone defenses to stop playing so soft 1 1
wvbillsfan Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 Let’s gets this guy back so we can stop with the we need a tight end stuff. Knox is going to be a stud.
