Yeah it's amazing how quickly the board is to turn on someone, really. It was a preseason game, like you said. Drawing any conclusions on starters yesterday is bad. 

 

I watched Rapp get beat... does he need his own thread? 

 

Josh Allen ended his start with 0 completions and 0 yards. Should we bench him?

[Sweats]

So, you guys wanted Coleman to have his best game of the season yesterday against the Pats and have him single handedly win the game and gift wrap the #1 pick to NE?........or maybe, just maybe the whole team played half-heartedly with very little effort in their vanilla O (should have been zero surprise to anyone) and basically just go through the motions to get the game over and done with and have no injuries going into the post season.

 

Coleman will shine in the playoffs when the games actually mean something.........bank on it.

[Kelly to Allen]

This is weird. He's probably our best big play wr. Seemed to be getting good separation before this game lol

[The Firebaugh Kid]

His body language said "this is pointless, get me to the real games". I'm fine with that.

Dion Dawkins refused to even put his pads on yesterday. Do we cut him?

[Kirby Jackson]

He just isn’t very good. He wasn’t very good coming out. He can make some plays on fly balls because he has good ball skills. He’s never open so he can’t ever find volume. I think he was about WR 15 for me. He’s no better than that. Ladd would have been a much better pick. That’s not hindsight for me either. 
 

I hope Coleman becomes a big red zone target and continues to get down the field. He has some similarities to Gabe but he isn’t there yet.

This 💯 

 

It was weird I was with family half watching the game and towards the end a bunch of guys on media said " I know Allen didn't play but Coleman was 3/9 in catches"

 

I was like you stupid click bait mfer... 

 

The local media here is so weird

To think that the chargers got McConkey one pick after Coleman is very infuriating.

 

McConkey, AD Mitchell (he would have eaten this year in the Bills offense), McMillian too.

[MrEpsYtown]

Patience guys....

 

Remember wrong Josh? 

 

Remember when everyone thought Spencer Brown was terrible and should be brought out to pasture? Now he is a top RT in the league. Great athlete who needed time. 

 

Remember when people thought Terrel Bernard was the worst draft pick ever? 

 

Remember when people thought Jon Feliciano was good? 

 

Again, it's all hit or miss or part of the process. I think Coleman is a better fit for the offense and Josh's strengths than a guy like Worthy. Same with Leggette. I think they should have considered McConkey maybe a bit more in hindsight, but again, he is a slot like Shakir and there is redundancy there. The real hindsight move was to get up for Brian Thomas, Jr., but it did not happen. Just let Josh keep cooking with the offense and I really do think Keon will continue to grow here and I don't have buyer's remorse. Like Spencer Brown, come back to this post in a few years and Keon will be a top 5 WR from this draft IMO. 

[Kelly to Allen]

Wasn't he on pace before he got hurt for like 45-50 and like 1000 yds lol

 

He might be the best wr in this entire class. It was a homerun pick

For pity's sake, this is silly. Nobody had such expectations--I certainly didn't. And I've been generally supportive of Coleman and expect him to improve. 

 

But there's no denying that, for whatever reason, he looked bad yesterday.

I'm new here but this is purposely trying to be miserable.

Are you nuts? Do you really want to bring sense to this discussion?

 

Thank God we have @Back2Buff who knew at the time of the pick that it should've been Mitchell, McConkey or McMillan and is here to remind us.

 

Sarcasm off. We have absolutely no idea how it all pans out. Let's give Keon some time.

Out of curiosity, what were you saying about Spencer Brown after the pick and after his first two seasons?

You've learned an important TBD lesson early...  

 

 

[Brand J]

Coleman’s comp is Tee Higgins. I don’t remember hearing much about Higgins as a rookie, so you’ve gotta give a player like that - a big guy who doesn’t have dominating athleticism - time to ingratiate himself into the league. 

[RiotAct]

he was throwing the game!!!

Yep.  It might just be an "observation" for some, but for many it is simply a chance to bash a guy they never wanted, and to say how the guy they did want is so much better, like Worthy of McConkey.  It is the way of the world, and this Board.  Just ignore it and focus on the good stuff here.

It's infuriating that this organization kept trotting him out there every week and won us 13 games and the 2nd seed.

 

How on earth do they expect us to secure a good draft spot with this method???
