The Bills will have to ((((((BOIL))))) him, first...

 

I’m thinking the NFLPA would frown upon giving him the lobster treatment.

HMO....just kidding, and this may not be the right thread but I'm tired of people raggin on Knox. Not only did he make a possibly game saving catch , he also is Josh's pass pro. Am I the only one that sees him lining up behind a guard 90% of the time? Our pass game is thanks to him being an extra Olineman. Can't they put Gilliam back there to do that and let Knox catch passes?  This is for you Ken Dorsey.....

 

BTW, if Sweeney can't block......well never mind, Quinton Morris will will be integral vs. Pitt.

I understand the "respect every opponent" perspective, but barring catastrophic injury, I don't see any way the Steelers win this one.

McDermott's defenses consistently dominate rookie quarterbacks. I don't have the exact numbers, but they OVERWHELMINGLY favor the Bills defense. Have the Bills under McDermott EVER lost to a rookie quarterback?

Beyond that, we're talking about the 24th ranked scoring offense in the league going against a defense that has allowed just seven total second half points across four games. A defense which has effectively limited McVay's Rams, Derrick Henry, and Lamar Jackson.  Forgive me for not believing that the insertion of a rookie quarterback is going to jumpstart the bottom tier Steelers offense enough to beat the Bills. I just don't see it.

This week looks like a relatively sure win to me. The following two games, against the Chiefs and Packers? THOSE games we can wring our hands about. But the Steelers? I'm not buying it.

Mac Jones🤷🏼‍♂️

Just be patient with Davis. This ankle injury is a new one, and he looked fairly bad-a$$ in week 1, and easily out snapped Diggs. 

 

Ankle's are tough - you lose a lot of explosion. He'll get there

Your answer is correct to the question but he only threw 3 passes.  They could have put the waterboy back there with the same outcome.

Still crazy to me that only 2 of the first 6 games are at home.  Thats rough.

It’s a good thing to have more home games in the second half. Especially when we are looking at maybe 5-1/4-2 going into the bye

Unfortunately they chose to not to address the position in the event that Davis wasn't up to the task of being a full time starter.    Your backup to WR1 and WR2 can't be the 7th best receiver on the roster like Jake Kumerow.     

 

Yeah, don't remember the players that may have been available earlier at that time Beane and co. felt were improvements that would cost around the numbers wanted. At the time I was hoping they would have addressed it also.

 

Guess they felt good with what they had.

Oh so it's not the same ankle from before? That's what I was wondering.

Maybe.  Im of the opinion that snow isnt that big of an advantage.  Wind and rain are worse IMO and that effects our offense just as much which evens it out a little for other teams. Id rather see our offense in good conditions because thats when it has the potential to be the most explosive. Cold is just cold.  People can layer up, have heaters on the sidelines and stay warm by actually playing.  That portion of the schedule itself is easier though.

Agreed, take all the time he needs. Between Knox and Morris, Diggs, Shakir and Dirty ( who will be fine), we'll be ok. Time for ESPN on a Monday morning to be talking about James Cook breaking out.

It’s just a position they don’t prioritize as much as they should IMO… knew that was the case when back in February McDermott basically said that it’s a position you don’t need to use first rounders in and can find late round picks to develop. 

 

Im guessing because we didnt actually get knocked out of the playoffs because of anything on offense.  I would love to see some investment in the line though. As well as another top flight wr.

I saw it reported that it was the same ankle as previously. Haven’t seen otherwise aside from that post.

Oh ok...I' didn't know....other poster I quoted said it was a "new" ankle injury so I assumed that meant different ankle. Thanks for the info

Amen.  We are better off being a #2 or #3 seed with a healthy Davis than the #1 seed going into the playoffs with him hobbled.  Get him healthy. 100%. Without him we have zero shot against the Chiefs.  If it takes 6 weeks, then it takes 6 weeks.  That is what happens with ankles.

No problem. Yes, that was the same post I was referencing. Haven’t seen anything else saying the injury was new, so I’d say it was the same one.

I’m guessing it would get MUCH LOUDER before the silence.  😱
