Bills running back receiving game this year

That's what I was referring to with the comment about Brady's willingness to adjust being slower than we'd prefer and it possibly being a function of McDermott not liking to come off set plans too quickly.

 

With throwing to the backs, there seems to be something disjointed about how they align play-calling with personnel against a specific opponent.  It's like the OC's forget that they can throw to the backs and never recall in-game that option exists.  

 

They also seem intent on throwing to the backs given their draft picks/acquisitions, like when they traded for Nyheim Hines in 2022.  Then, they just didn't use him for that purpose.  Or, now having Cook, Davis, and Johnson who combined have 33 targets in 8 games.  And that's as the passing game has been stifled at times.  Just strange.

Ray Davis is a great threat as a receiver, I would like to see him featured that way more as the season continues.

 

James Cook has done a very good job in improving his pass catching.

 

Ty Johnson is the biggest surprise. I don't remember him being used that often as a receiver last year, but he has made some big catches for the Bills.

a number of these have had some pretty good air yards as well... not just stricltly dump offs

Cook slide though small holes and go for an easy 8 yards.  As shaw66 says slippery.

THE COOK…IS COVERED IN CRISCO!!!

Maybe this is more to the ascension of Josh not always taking the big play.  As some would say taking the checkdown to move the chains.
