Does this mean we are not getting Ertz?

Probably.  However, after multiple threads regarding such a possibility were started and subsequently locked in the off-season, I believe that angering a moderator is now referred to as 'getting their Ertz'.

Oh, agreed - I'm definitely talking about 2021.  Now that Knox has developed into that guy, he's simply benefitting from what Kelce (Hill) has. 

 

For me, Kelce is his comp.  They have similar playing styles, albeit Kelce with much more experience and nuance in his route running from that experience. 

 

Kelce, ultra-athletic 6'5 260.  Knox, ultra-athletic 6'4 255.

 

I think we agree more than we disagree, but just a little point that it's more than nuance to the route running.  Knox was simply not very physical in his release or his route running.  It was pretty easy to neutralize him.

I'll take one of those....

[TwistofFate]

I've been a Knox fan since he ran over 3 Bengals in route to a Bills win. 

 

He had the heart and desire, just needed it all to come together. 

 

The legend of Rambo was born that day.

We do, I'm only talking about this version of Knox (2021).  Kelce knows how to leverage his body on smaller defenders to create separation of certain routes, and that's something Knox will learn.

Never thought Knox couldn’t develop Into a starting caliber TE. But he has completely taken over Gabe Davis and even Beasley at this point as the teams third receiving option which I never thought would happen.

Where do I sign??

He's playing great. Good to see after the last two seasons.

 

 

Where he looked like a JAG.

 

Nice to see he’s done a 180.

Saw this idea on Reddit, but if Knox keeps this up, we will have to make apology forms for him as well!   

 

Man is he busting out in year 3.  

 

 

Not sure if this works as well as it did with Josh. Plenty of people all have had high hopes for Knox, just needed him to finally go out there and do it.

[teef]

if i recall correctly, some posters were very angry with this staff for drafting a te who had never caught a td pass.  knox worked hard and had patience.  good for him.

Thumbs up!  my now 9 year old son saw that and was like, "I want a Knox jersey."  Got him one right away, and he's been a Knox fan ever since.

I'm not ready yet. 

 

I need more than 1 game where he contributes more than 5 receptions, and more than 1 game where he contributes more than 50 yds (don't have to be the same game, aren't so far)

 

But yes, so far so good.  I'm actually more impressed with Knox improvement in blocking.  It doesn't show on the stat sheet but he no longer looks "lost in space".

 

come on!!!  He totally abused a few KC Lbs and safety's yesterday!

back handed compliment,

taking advantage of one’s circumstances is what good players do. It’s what E Sanders has been doing for five straight games, 
 

Go Bills!!!

If you think it’s a backhanded compliment, so be it.  I like knox.  I’ve always liked Knox.  I’ve always compared him to Josh Allen playing TE.  Through 5 games in 2020 he’s living up to his massive potential 
 

Sanders is an impeccable route runner with great hands, feel and speed. That’s what he’s been doing for almost 10 years.  Yes, he is reaping the benefits of playing with 17 and 14 as well.  We are also reaping the benefits of having him in our offense.  Just like Knox.

Nothing to apologize for.

 

Most fans saw the potential, but needed Knox to become more consistent catching the ball and to stop putting the ball on the turf or popping it up with a tip drill. Knox has done just that and I cannot think of any fans that would be upset by this growth in his game.

No apologies from me. I've been on the Knox bandwagon since his rookie year. 

 

I owe the board an apology for thinking Ford was going to develop. Looks like a total bust now.

[Freddie's Dead]

I was a huge Knox fan, got tired of seeing the untimely drops.  My apology was when I changed his nickname from "Dropsome" to "Dawesome".  I'm again a huge Knox fan, he has a massive upside.  He needs to keep doin' what he's doin'.

I understood why fans were down on him because of drops but Knox always flashed elite ability. Just had to develop. Pretty much all the best TEs are home grown. 
 

Im happy to say I always defended Knox.

I don't need to sign the Knox apology form. I always said he is raw and underdeveloped but we have to be patient because if it clicks the traits are off the charts. 

 

Does anyone have an "Emmanuel Sanders is washed up" apology form though? Because I think I need to submit one of those.

Ha ha! I've been on the Sanders train since last year. Glad to be right for once!

It's crazy that he has 5 TDs in 5 games, and didn't score a single college TD.

The two top WRs on that team were AJ Brown and DK Metcalf!

Sanders is basically an older version of Diggs. Such a great addition.
