IndyMark Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) Maybe I am scrambling here but kick-off returns seemed notably positive; an upgrade of sorts. He seemed lively and smart in his decisions. This could bode well for us as we strive to develop a 60+ minute mindset on game days.

JerseyBills Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Definitely a positive from this game. Also I liked our banged up DBs. Cousins made some great throws into great coverage. 7 points came off an 81 yard run and 7 came off the Allen fumble. If we just limit turnovers we'll be handling teams again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schoolhouserock Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 I thought he did a bad job on the last kick off return during regulation. With zero time outs and less than 40 seconds to go, Duke used an extra two seconds to dance around the sideline. He is too slow to take it to the house - he needed to get out of bounds right away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke is a very mediocre kickoff return guy. If you believe in Hines on punts and he's so much faster than Duke, why the hell not put him in (ko)? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobills404 Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Sorry but no we didn’t. Even with that big return he still only averaged 22.4 yards per return, which is less than McKenzie so far this year (24.0). It actually seemed like the Vikings were intentionally kicking it short of the end zone because they weren’t scared of Duke at all and thought they could tackle him short of the 25, which they did most of the time. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HopelessNJBuffaloFan Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Hey, that's great!!! So when the other teams score on us at will, we will get to see him a lot! LOL 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 We are probably a few weeks away from 1/3 of the game day roster being STs only. This team is just ***** clueless. Sts is almost literally erased from the modern NFL but we act like it’s legit 1/3 of the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruffalo Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 I don't understand this take at all. Duke looked like he was running in slow motion out there. When you're fielding the kick at your own 5-8 yard line, you should be consistently getting decent to great field position out of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrags Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 I’m guessing he won’t be active in game days (barring injury) for the rest of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILBillsfan Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Sorry Hines can do this role already i do not need to see 6 active rb's on this team...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 He just got a lot of return yards because the defense allowed so many scores 😝 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillnutinHouston Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Intetesting takeaway. Mine was, and said this during the game, that Duke plays extremely Ssslllooowww. Definitely not worthy of a SB contender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
