Right do we have any receivers other than Diggs?

The Jets are playing the pass and the receivers are covered pretty well.  This is where we need to be able to run the ball consistently.

Earlier I said I didn't care about having OBJ.  This is changing my mind.  They literally have one good receiving threat.   Both Knox and Davis have been huge disappointments this year

And this is why having OBJ wouldn't hurt. 

 

Davis & McKenzie aren't consistent enough threats to take pressure off Diggs.

 

They both can have standout performances, but they are just as likely to go long stretches barely being visible. 

We currently don’t even have a slot WR.  
 

Shakir is a rookie who the staff is bringing along slowly and McKenzie is a gadget player. 
 

Davis is a FANTASTIC WR3 deep threat. 
 

We have an elite WR1 and Deep Threat WR3.  No dependable #2 or Slot.

Toss sweeps with GB worked last week against our front too.

 

Most on the one side of our defense too - there is something scheme-wise other teams are seeing.

 

I have a TBD stalker 😂

Davis better show up here. They are doubling Diggs. We need some other options. 

Honestly I'm pretty disappointed with him this year. He's had opportunities and just hasn't capitalized 

[PauleeeWalnuts]

Davis and Knox need to join the party here. Diggs is getting doubled while Davis drops passes

Yeah, it was a comeback route. Allen ran away from pressure and threw it to a perfect spot. Sorry but Davis has to be better than that. He seems to only make big plays when running vertical routes. We need more from our #2.

 

Don't think it was a designed comeback. It was a scramble drill. But I agree we need more from Davis beyond the shot plays.

Whatever route it was, it was a makeable catch and if Davis wants to be a Big Dog and get paid like it, he’s gotta haul those in.

Josh needs to wake up. For those saying we're nitpicking cause we're up - this is supposed to be a SB contending team and we have not looked like a SB contending offense for the last 3 quarters. We NEED to hit open receivers and matriculate the ball down the field, not everything has to be a chunk play.

I'll give you the last two quarters. He was fine in the third quarter last week - he was barely on the field.

Working at a 50% clip the last 2 weeks.  Has to be something going on with him.

They’ve been figured out. And, Dorsey is not a good O coordinator 

Not sure about that. I think the offense isn't executing and Allen hascbeen off with too many passes.

Yes, the Bills play nickel almost exclusively, and have relatively light DEs. You can overpower the Bills on the edges, which is why you need safeties and backers to be so good on angles. Especially the safety and Will backer

I didn’t think so in the beginning of the year, but we need a better #2 wide receiver. Too many mistakes too easy to slow us down.

[Norcalbillsfan]

Excited to see how Allen and dorsey respond. This is a good defense. I wanna see how dorsey adjusts

[BuffaloBill]

Allen hands off to motor who gets 3

[Billsforumsucks]

Need Hines in the slot

I don't care about looking like a SB winner at this stage as long as we win. If we learn lessons, or it pushes us to rejig for Beckham, all the better.
