The return of the deep ball!!!!

[Special K]

 

This is something that has been lacking in the Bills offense in the last two months, clearly because of Josh Allen’s elbow injury.

 

It looks like the elbow is back in form as the three deep balls Josh threw today were perfect!

 

This is huge in helping loosen up opposing defenses moving forward in the playoffs. 

 

Will we we see the explosive offense we were accustomed to seeing return for the playoff run??

 

Lets hope so!!!!!

 

Go Bills!!!

Should have been 3 deep TD’s if Davis didn’t have butter for hands.

Yup, this will probably be McKenzie's last season and next year will be Gabe's goodbye. Josh deserves better wrs with more reliable hands. Diggs and Knox can't do it all.

That lions wr caught a ball with his ass. Literally

As exciting as the deep ball is, im much more excited at the oppprtunity this is going to open for Cole/Shakir/Cook/Motor/Knox.

 

Josh looks best dink n dunk ing. Love watching defense get frustrsted: close to LOS; ANDDDDD ITSSSS GONEEEEEE. sit back against deep ball, and watch josh hit five 12yard eaay completions in a row 🤷‍♂️

Hope Brown catches a couple more deep shots these playoffs

Go sign Jacobi Meyers in the offseason.

I was thinking about this before the game.   Could not come at a better time.  Having said that, the move the balls short throws are just as important.  Too many drops by Davis this year.  I wonder how much we will see Smoke and Beasley in the playoffs.

Yet all day yesterday he didn’t take 5he dink n dunks n went for home run all day.  Many plays would see cook open in flat yet he’s throwing into double coverage.

Jakobi is gonna cash in. Former UDFA he will want the biggest deal he can. He isn't in a position to take a bit less to play for a competitor. If Chicago or (more likely) Houston offer him the bag - that is where he will go. I'd love him here. Just don't think it is realistic sadly.

Is Davante Parker available? I like his contested catch ability.

Gotta take the dink and dunks early!! They CAN turn into big plays

[Since1981]

Brown is the “off-the-street” proof any leftover doubters need that legit W2/W3  helps 17 big time. Not to take away from smoke, but his entire scenario on #2 seed team shouldn’t be a thing

Yuck.

🌈🌈 Im not sure if this still applies but back in the day we would call the passes like  #17 threw on Sunday  as Rainbows.

 

Things of sheer Beauty.

 

YEP!

 

PS: does this current avatar not mesh with this topic AND yesterdays game.  Gives me chills

I bought this art,  had it painted and have it in the man cave.   Love it

Bills should go big for a good #2 WR. If we had another Diggs type they wouldn't be able to double them both. And then have a burner going deep that runs off the safety help. We would be unstoppable

Nope. Even if he was I hate his availability 

 

 

If you look for Speed but never became much Mecole Hardman

Allen mentioned in his presser that he's going back to chucking it downfield. You love to see it. If it's not complete, often it's a 40 yard PI call.

Dink and Dunk opens up the long ball, as does a good running game.. Josh struggled with this for awhile but its a necessary evil to take the easy stuff and force Ds to shift..

The long ball is great when it is on, but when its off that leads to a lot of 3 and longs, and our D with its injuries and bend don't break philosophy any good QB or a QB having a real good day is going to move the ball on us... Sometimes the long ball puts us behind the 8 ball, and other times it blows the doors off the game early..  it can be a love hate realtionship especially if we are struggling to move the ball in general

Question? Is Davante Parker better than any receiver coming out in the draft? What, in particular, don't you like about his game?
