Buffalo Bill receivers now lead the league in dropped passes

[78thealltimegreat]

After yesterday they passed the Green Bay Packers for most dropped passes by unit.  
  Part of this maybe weather, how hard Josh throws, or maybe it is just they are street level free agent talented.
 I really don’t want this to be the reason they don’t win the Super Bowl but man these guys should lock themselves on like a jugs machine.

Which is crazy given how much attention was given to the Green Bay drop issues...

Would love a link but doesn't surprise me

Have to agree, they need to get this fixed. This team isn’t winning a Super Bowl by increasing the workload for Singletary or Cook. They need to get back to a high powered passing offense that cranks our first downs, rarely punts and mixes in back breaking Josh Allen runs. That’s the formula that will get them a Lombardi.

Crap weather people....there's your answer.

Lol. Sarcasm? We've played in rain twice this season.

Big reason Josh is at 63.8 completion percentage.  Outside of Diggs no one makes tough catches.

Didn't seem to bother the Jets. White was getting killed out there, even had to leave the game twice, and still passed for 268. Meanwhile, Josh had a season low 147.

Thankfully Josh doesn't have Rodgers personality so we don't hear him in the media throwing his team under the bus every week on every podcast that will have him.

Gabe can prove the naysayers wrong, there's still time... but he seems like a one trick pony.  His best play is to run deep and just throw it up to him...he's usually good at making a play on the ball and coming down with it ( except the end of the game at NYJ).   He's not particularly fast or shifty on the short stuff.  One of his best plays was finding open space at New England last week and giving Allen an outlet for the TD.  And he does drop some balls.

Give him time to manufacture data.

Also would like a link of all the drops too. Not every drop is created the same.

This is the best I’ve found but it doesn’t include this weeks games.  http://hosted.stats.com/fb/tmleaders.asp?type=Receiving&range=NFL&rank=232

 

Green Bay had a bye.  So if we had 2 drops last game, we passed them.  It would be on the teams tier or below us to match us this week.  Either way, we drop way too many passes.  That’s obvious

That's not even true. Last season he caught multiple crossing routes and multiple deep outs along the boundary. Yesterday he had a 20 yard reception on a stop route that was perfectly executed. 

He's more than just a deep shot guy. 

[BRH]

Sorry, I'm lazy, but is there a site that tracks drops game by game?

 

I have a theory that the rise in drops coincided with Josh having to re-tool his throwing motion to minimize pain after he got hurt.  Changes in velocity disrupt timing.

 

Of course, I could just be talking out of my ass.

The thing is the book is now out on him just ask Patrick Peterson after the Vikings game but that more be the offensive philosophy as a whole

[Big Turk]

We got an updated chart including the games from yesterday?

 

Lil Dirty wants it...
