HappyDays Posted October 12, 2021 Posted October 12, 2021 1) I wanted Ertz as bad as anyone on here. 2) I predicted Hollister would beat Knox out. 3) I said during the offseason I saw no sign of progress from Knox and that his upside was only hypothetical. I was wrong a million times over. He has been sensational. Not only is he catching the ball and blocking better, he is making himself available to Allen which to me was the biggest piece missing from this offense last year. 2 Quote

Man is he busting out in year 3. No we won’t. He is playing great now. He wasn’t previously. He had a drop rate of 19% his rookie year. That’s abysmal. He stunk. No one needs to apologize for pointing that out then. 1 1 Quote
ALF Posted October 12, 2021 Posted October 12, 2021 Knox graduated with honors from TE University and he credits Professor Kelce Quote

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted October 12, 2021 Posted October 12, 2021 I still want Zack Ertz because I am a big fan of 2 TE formations. I always said TE and WR's sometimes take 3 years to develop. The only thing that really pisses me off is that I lost Knox in the FFL bidding. Quote
Dopey Posted October 12, 2021 Posted October 12, 2021 Are we using this forum to apologize or is there an actual form? Dopey is so confused 🤔 Quote
White Linen Posted October 12, 2021 Posted October 12, 2021 I apologize for you getting better Dawson. Quote
Kmart128 Posted October 12, 2021 Posted October 12, 2021 I think people expected to much to soon just cause he beat an injury prone Tyler Kroft for the job... but when we drafted him he was a project. He wasnt expected to contribute at all his first few years... he was all potential and little production coming out of college and people seem to forget that 1 Quote
GoBills! Posted October 12, 2021 Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) I still wanted Hollister over Sweeney.... Hollister has a TD... oh yeah Knox is now the best of those 3 any ways....pass the bbq sauce for my crow. Edited October 12, 2021 by GoBills! Quote

Dopey is so confused 🤔 I’ll have to make a form. This forum will work now👍. I liked him his rookie year, then he seemed to have a major regression in year 2 and I was ready for Ertz and Knox as a backup. I also thought after last uear Hollister would beat him out. Then he has that oft spoken of (more so in the past) year 3 breakout. Quote

MAJBobby Posted October 12, 2021 Posted October 12, 2021 I seen the talent, I just didnt see him putting it together, and For that Dawson I do apologize. Quote
Mat68 Posted October 12, 2021 Posted October 12, 2021 Him becoming the 3 recieving option opens everything up. The drop in coverage defense gets carved up by Knox and Beasley. Bracket Beasley now Knox is up the seam for 15. Carry Knox up the seam Beasley is open at the sticks. Knox with confidence may become a monster. Quote
NewEra Posted October 13, 2021 Posted October 13, 2021 (edited) what he has worked so hard on becoming (and seems to have become) is exactly what we needed last year. teams want to take away Diggs and Knox? Go ahead, we can trust our complimentary players to make the play. Knox, Singletary and Moss all look better this season. the Rbs each had a drop vs KC, but ran hard and Josh wasn't afraid to give them the ball when the other options weren't open. I really wanted to an another TE threat to the rotation and run some 2 TE sets to switch things up and keep the defenses honest and help our run game. While they didn't add a TE they decided that Gilliam could be that guy to switch things up. He played 22 snaps last night and is filling that extra blocker role just fine. It's been really fun to watch this offense (and the kids that play in it) progress. Our coaching staff is making our players better. I'm sure a lot of it has to do with the players individual work ethic (and that's part of why we drafted/acquired them), but players around the league are going to notice. That will lead to the bargain free agent signings and maybe some home town discounts. Which I was told doesn't exist *cough* Matt Milano. POyer and Hyde signing extensions making less than 10M a year while Eddie jackson get 14M, Landon Collins gets 16M, Adams gets 17.5, Justin Simmons 15.5. Mathieu getting almost 19 this year. I realize some of those guys might be a little better than ours, but I believe they gave us a discount to stay together and win the whole dam thing with 17. The hometown discounts have already begun. Hopefully Knox will give us a discount. If he continues to play like this (he looks DAM GOOD) he's going to top the 12.5 Jonnu and henry got and could get the 14M andrews got. Not every contract will be at a discounted rate, but I'm confidant that we'll be able to sign some good value FA's in the coming years. Edited October 13, 2021 by NewEra 1 Quote
JMF2006 Posted October 13, 2021 Posted October 13, 2021 He had/has everything to be great but he seemed to drop the easiest balls. He traded in the bricks for paws at TE U Quote

I mean he pretty much stunk before this year, why are we apologizing exactly? I'll give him a congrats, good job and thank you for putting in the work to get better though. If he has truly become a top, playmaking TE.... Oh my god, this offense is going to be unstoppable. Really excited to see what he does the rest of the year. Quote

Really excited to see what he does the rest of the year. it’s something infecting a certain subset of (new) Bills fans - take any decent, kinda clever idea and beat it to death. Look I didn’t think the “apology form” thing was that clever when they did it for Allen. But some media members and other Allen “haters” got into it for a few days and everyone had a chuckle. So let’s now rehash the idea over and over and make it the lamest **** on earth. honestly, if the post starts with “saw this idea on Reddit” it should be insta-deleted. Quote
