Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

I am disappointed /pizzed he didn’t and hasn’t bothered getting stronger, which we’ve called for from his rookie season. Has the need not been proven? This question has me wondering WTH?

I’m interested to see how we look against Burrow with his full array of weapons today. I know we’re down guys on the DL, but I’m going to throw out that post-Hamlin snow game against them in the Playoffs. We almost lost to the Pats if not for the Hines kick return. Almost lost to the Skylar Thompson Dolphins. Then no-show against the Bengals. It would’ve made a Hollywood story, but little did we know, our season ended that day in Cincinnati… team was shot after.

This entire season in part because of the signing of the Cook contract they have been under utilized they meaning Ty & Davis . Both are weapons that could be used weather it be in the passing game or the run game, as a decoy or as the guy on that series . Last year both. had their significant roles to make this offense the highest scoring offense in the league and this year up until last week haven't been used which IMHO is a HUGE mistake on Brady's part to not include them as I said ether as a decoy or the guys to make a difference because if they are on the field you can't tell me that the D coordinator for the opposition isn't thinking about them ...

Thanks for the compliment. 🍻 I understand that it’s an odd take. I’m usually on the most optimistic side. .01% is based on us currently having about a 9% chance of winning the SB. I think we’ll will 💯 make the playoffs (if we have Kincaid), but more like 90-95% if we didn’t play again in the regular season. My reasoning for these thoughts: I believe that there will be one (of the 4 dcs we play in the playoffs) that will go all out to stop to the run and bring the proper game plan to do it. Which leaves it to the pass game, defense and STs to win the game.. -Of the 3, I have the most confidence in our defense getting the job done (which is scary based on past playoff performances)….IF we have some horses. That said, my pessimism regarding injury is at an all time high and I expect the usual suspects on D to miss time in the playoffs. - Josh just doesn’t seem to have any rhythm in the pass game this season. Just my opinion here, but I think he’s been bailing on the pocket prematurely (at a much higher rate than in the past), not because our OL is getting worked over, but because he’s knows he needs to create angles in the passing game to help his WRs create separation. IMaaaaybe Palmer will be able to be that guy; but based on his usage (and injury which doesn’t seem to be getting any better), I find it doubtful. Josh and Keon just aren’t a good match imo. For as great as Josh is, I have little confidence in him throwing accurate jump balls, back shoulder, high ball placement passes, if he does make a nice one, I don’t have much confidence in Keon bringing it down. I have more confidence in Gabe and Cooks…which is pathetic. Knox looks like a robot in the pass game. I can barely tell the difference between he and Hawes based on their movement. That leaves us with screens to Shakir (and I don’t think that’s sustainable for a 4 game playoff push) and RBs (who I do believe in, but I think they will be the focus of the opposing defense). I don’t think that’s enough to win when teams take away our run game (which is essentially a numbers game). - I don’t have any confidence in our STs winning a game for us in the playoffs. Kincaid is the key to our pass game success and without him, winning 4 games in a row vs playoff teams on the road is beyond just very unlikely. We’ll need a miracle. I feel miracles have a much lower than a 1% chance of coming to fruition, so .01% sounded good. Lots of luck (which is rarely on our side), great coaching and game planning is our only hope without him imo. hopefully we won’t find out if I’m wrong as Kincaid will miraculously be healthy the rest of the way. i appreciate your take @No_Matter_What and I see why you feel that way. We have Josh Allen and anything is possible with him. I just need to see more from our WRs to regain that type of confidence. I sadly agree with this. Some bodies aren’t made for the rigors on the NFL, to date, it seems that kincaid has one of those bodies Hahaha, well said sir

He has one cheap year and then the 5th year option for the team that trades for him. So two cost controlled years. Id ask for a 2, but realistically would take a 3rd. We could also use him on draft day for a trade up. Anything less and I would keep him and hope he figures out a way to stay healthy.. and yes, pick up the option, because if he can, that’s cheap. If he can’t, oh well, we’ve wasted cap on dumber things.

Already snowing:

It's funny that you came up with this post because I have been thinking along the same lines about resigning him . IMHO he is a china doll, a very good player when he is healthy but that is the problem to this point in his career he has missed I believe I have read 1/3 of the games that have been played since he has been here and this coaching staff and many others say the best ability is availability . No matter how good you are if your not available to play your talents are a loss ! If Bruce wasn't on the field he would never have been the HOF Bruce that we know & it's the same with most any of the other players of the HOF Dan that the Bills have had in the past . I was thinking they may use him to trade for 1 of 2 things either a better draft selection to move up and get a player that would have a better future from the draft or use to trade him for a player that has already made some waves and is on the rise that would better fit the Bills in what ever position that might be . But if they did that the haters would be out in full force waving the fire Beane flags you can bet . But although a talented player he didn't bulk up much with a full off season and he just can't stay healthy then when he is on the field it seems that they focus more on using him and not using the likes of Knox or now Hawes which showed last week that if implemented in the scheme more the too are weapons . Since Kincaid was drafted Knox which got paid because he showed his worth both as a blocker and a pass catcher that Josh could depend on gets pushed to the side and under utilized and the balance that could be isn't there if both players were used to their strengths in the pass game instead of focusing much more on 1 than the other . And that isn't realized until Kincaid is hurt .

Like Kincaid, wanted the Bills to draft him. Shows potential. But he gets hurt too often & is too underused to get big money IMO. We pay too many guys who underperform. Let's see how the season plays out.

They also cheated a lot by having guys fall down acting injured slowing down the Bills uptempo and two plays later guy is back in making plays.

Every QB, even Allen & Mahomes have weaknesses. At some point, someone will find out what Maye’s are outside of taking a bunch of inconsequential 2 yard sacks. McDaniels is killing it for him. Their WR room is average, yet dudes are running wide open all over the place. That doesn’t mean he’s Stroud or Daniels and falls off the map next year. I think he’s potentially going to be Top 5 unfortunately… but he has weaknesses, he’s not perfect, yet - at least against this schedule in the regular season - he’s not shown any cracks.

Doesn't have to be cheap, Knox will be gone next year, just switch the money

Not reliable enough to keep him. Get Hawes more involved in passing game and use Anderson or another blocking TE . Not reliable enough to keep him.

As a Wyoming alumni becoming a Bills fan because of Josh, this awesome. It has been a true joy watching him grow over the last ten years.

What would be your anticipated returns on this?

I was having a brain fart. For some reason I had this year as his 4th. Nothing to see here...carry on...

If I’m an NFL team, I’d be pretty open to moving a haul to go get Mendoza at 1. He’s more mobile than I thought. Can take a hit. Throws a nice ball. And while he’s getting mocked by the “too cool” crowd for his postgame, if I’m a HC/GM, I know that dude is going to be a great face of my organization and I don’t have to worry about him in terms of leadership or off the field stuff.

He's missed games, played hurt and yet still is tied for the lead in receiving TDs, 2nd in receiving yards and third in receptions. His success rate and catch percentage is very high, seems like a no brainer. Hopefully he can get healthy and stay that way, if that happens, expect a long term deal to follow. The Bills have a lot of receiver problems, this isn't at the top of the list

Yo... Dope. Clearly you don't realize I am trashing UNC because I like Duke

8.7 is a no threadneededer

the Bills social media team would be working overtime to keep that one family-friendly

8m is a reasonable salary for a young TE that has flashed and still has lots of upside. If we can extend him a few more years at or just below that rate it's a win. If he was our 4th or 5th option pass catcher that may be something different, but we're not in the position to be letting talented young guys with upside walk, just because they have not lived up to their draft position.

100% Beane picks up the option. I think he should, 8-9 mil for a year isn’t bad. Give him 2 years to see if he can change the narrative. He wasn’t injury prone at Utah, and Josh really did him dirty with that horrific pass when Kincaid was wide open that blew up his right knee. That was a career altering for Kincaid. The guy has elite skills when he can stay healthy (not saying he’s an elite player). If he can get himself off the All Glass team, maybe he reaches his potential.

This is always our cheat code when we need it. Not only are JA runs effective in and of themself, but it also opens up the passing game by drawing eyes to the threat of Josh Allen running. I don’t see us as in must win mode today though. 3-2 over these last 5 gets us in, and depending how things play out, 2-3 could. If there’s any game to circle as a game guys should gut it out to get a W, it’s next week to stop NE from clinching against us. It’s gonna happen, but don’t let it happen vs us.
