Imagine posting something like this while the Bills are in the middle a beat down of last year’s superbowl runner up, a week after beating last year’s superbowl champion.

 

Maybe MVS had a bad attitude… this is a diva free locker room.

He's a 9 route specialist and our Quarterback doesnt throw a good 9 route.   

And I don't get it.  His first couple of seasons he hit them just fine.

MVS is having a productive run in New Orleans.  Why couldn’t we have made better use of him in our scheme?

IIRC saints re diving group has bern hit by injuries so he got more plays in a position of primary or secondary target.

 

buffalo has a lot more options in plays and a QB who isn’t focused on just one receiver so the ball gets spread out.

We have a great offense with one of the best ever QB’s in the league.  Wasn’t the Bills fault he didn’t succeed here.

I wanna show you all guys something.

 

Here is Josh's passer rating by field position chart from 2023.  We see he's way above average with the deep ball on the R side, average on the L.

Here is Paddy Mahomes passer rating by field position chart, again from 2023 with MVS on his team.  Average on the R side, well below league average on the L.

Just maybe, defenses cover teams with elite QB differently, in a manner which makes those Go routes (already low percentage throws) more difficult to complete?

 

Just maybe, defenses aren't scared of Derek Carr's arm, but they are trying to shut down Kamera?

Josh's first couple seasons, teams weren't so much afraid of his arm - with reason.  He was rocking a completion % less than 60% and throwing for <200 ypg.

 

By mid-season 2020, that changed.

The issue is it doesn't break it down by routes.   Just can throw a deep post fine.  He can throw the corner, and deep outs pretty well too.   What he doesnt throw well is a wide-open go/9 ball.    It seems like he struggles a great deal when he has to put air under the pass and drop it over a wideouts shoulder.   That said, yes, teams do try and take that route away from him with the two high shell.   The opportunities arent as vast for guys like Josh and Mahomes.

They traded for cooper and his role was essentially eliminated.

Well obviously he didn’t fit our scheme & we didn’t necessarily scheme to his strengths.  Not saying he’s a wr1 / 2 but he had some success in KC and appears to be having success in NO.  I don’t necessarily think his abbreviated stay and lack of numbers in Buffalo was all his doing.

Lmao convenient you left out 4 TD’s  8 catches in 11 target over 4 games.

When your the only good option left on the field all the more balls will be thrown in your direction .

Josh tried to get him the ball several times. Not blaming MVS they didn’t connect on all of them, but on several he didn’t seem to fight for the catch like our other guys do.

 

Josh will throw the ball whenever he feels he can connect.  For him, it’s not run downfield 10 yards, cut right and be on target. His receivers need to be aware ALL the time they may be the target even if the play makes them the 4th read. 
 

I guess I gotta ask. Why so concerned over a guy who had plenty of time to gel with this team, but got cut? Does he really make this team better?  Better option than our current receivers? I say absolutely not.

 

Anyways, I trust Beane and company to make the right roster move.

Think about human and especially message board nature.  The point of the concern is to be able to say I told you so if the Bills happen to lose in the playoffs or super bowl in a game in which they struggle to stretch the field or a current receiver drops a potential big play pass. I don't believe anyone here honestly thinks MVS is a quality receiver or realistically makes this team better on a snap to snap basis.

I get that but honestly the tape doesn’t lie.  He was a non-factor in Buffalo.  Also, it should be noted that the Bills cut MVS to make room for Amari Cooper.  
 

Are you saying you want MVS over Cooper?  I don’t think anyone can argue that Cooper is an improvement.

There was one ball in Miami where MVS was open deep and Josh misfired.  Other than that, he was a non factor

Carr throws up moon balls, MVS is good at catching them. Josh tends to overthrow that type of ball. And if it was a heater MVS couldn't grab it. 

It's by far the best part of Carr's game. Allen can do it decently as well, but it's not the focus.

 

You combine that with defenses selling out on Kamara / Hill and then you get a bunch of deep shots. The Saints have been hitting deep shots all season, and not just to MVS.  

 

Teams play defense against Allen to stop the big/intermediate pass. It's just more of a focus than it is with Carr.
