Hopefully he’ll get well soon but the offense should be better without him.

[SectionC3]

Good.  Get him right.  And if that doesn’t work, get him out.  Too many drops. 

[BillsFanSD]

I wonder if this will create any opportunities for any other guys on offense.  Particularly guys who play TE.  (Obviously I'm talking about Quentin Morris here.)

[Charles Romes]

Timing is interesting to say the least 

[Negan]

This might open up the offense finally

[Process]

Wish him the best but this is a good thing for the offense. 

[BlazinBill]

So we are down to 1 TE that's healthy -but the 12 personnel has been so successful - I hope our offense doesn't start to struggle

Kincaid season incoming

[HappyDays]

I've mentioned this before but he has a broken bone, plus torn ligament & cartilage. I was surprised he has been playing at all.

 

Also this might sound callous but I take this as a positive. We need undependable players to stay off the field. Kincaid and Morris catch the ball.

Wow...that is rough...dude is a trooper trying to play through that, but it's obvious he wasn't right.

Doesn't Morris have a high-ankle sprain?

how.  They want to run the ball and play more physical upfront with two tight ends.  They spent the entire offseason working on it.

 

Now they are without the veteran who has been in every situation possible.   

 

I just cant see how this is good.  

[Aussie Joe]

Take your time to recover Dawson …

They tried to hold it together with a brace, this news tell me it isn't taking so they're just shutting him down.

Two critical drops in the past two weeks tell the story.  He’s ineffective right now.

Oh right, I forgot about that. Oh well. No more 12 personnel.

Is Allen's shoulder worse off than they are letting on?  Also did Von reinjure his knee? Looked like he was limping after a play but had to stay on due to Pats going no huddle then didn't come back in...only had 6 snaps.

[Logic]

I understand the Prisoner of the Moment stuff to a degree, because Knox has had a few key drops lately.

However...any kind of notion that this somehow makes the Bills offense better seems ridiculous to me. 

Drops or not, Dawson Knox is a good player for the Bills. A good all-around tight end, and likely the Bills' best blocking tight end by a significant margin.

Losing him hurts in the run game, it hurts personnel multiplicity, and it hurts depth.

This does NOT make the Bills offense better, and it seems foolish to suggest that it somehow does.

Dawson Knox has never been right, even when healthy…
