Yes, after losing to Baltimore and Houston, Beane went out and got Amari. I know that to the we need a stud #1 WR crowd, this was an admission of guilt by Beane, proving that he had botched the WR position. It obviously had nothing to do with Curtis Samuel dealing with a turf toe injury from training camp, and Shakir getting injured in the Baltimore game and being out for the next two games. We were basically down two receivers (2 of who were supposed to be our top 3 WRs) and it was still early in the season (and we weren't expecting Mack to do what he did). We were still transitioning the offense from running it through Diggs, and there were a lot of new pieces. That offense hadn't found themselves yet. Remember, before the season started, Shakir was the only WR to catch a pass from Josh...and then he was out for two games, with Samuel still not being healthy. I think you can maybe knock Beane for not having enough depth at the WR position last year (which he seems to have taken care of this year), rather than that we needed a true #1 stud X-receiver (as how the offense performed the rest of the year proved). Plus, you act as if Amari is what eventually made that offense go. Cooper played in 11 of 20 games for the Bills last year with a total snap count of 21.97%. He had 338 yards (30.7 yards per game average) and 4 TDs on the year. In the playoffs, over three games, he had 6 receptions for 41 yards, no TDs (13.66 yards per game average). Across the season (11 games), he had a total of 4 games over 50 yards (66, 55, 95, and 56). The Bills didn't pick up Amari because defenses had figured out our offense in week 4. The Bills hadn't even figured out their offense yet at that point. It was because the offense didn't yet have an identity and then we were basically down two receivers. Just after that is about the time that the "everyone eats" philosophy started to take off---and work. I don't think it was Amari that made the offense work, it was the new philosophy/the offense finding what worked for them.

Checking up on his route on the first TD was exactly the kind of progression we need to see from him. That recognition will start putting him on the same page as Allen if he keeps it up. Last year he wouldn't have slowed a beat and would have run himself right into coverage. This year he ends up with the ball in the endzone. Granted he was probably a half step slow to recognize and react to it, which put Allen's throw off a bit because he probably thought Kincaid wasn't going to check it, but slow or not, he did it. It wasn't perfect, but we're not looking for perfect yet; we're just looking for better. And that is happening. That was Minkah Fitzpatrick, a legit killer that the Phish gave up JRamsey and Jonnu Smith for.

Do The Bills Have A Passing Game Problem?
Rochesterfan replied to BillsFan130's topic in The Stadium Wall
But wait - I read on here that this is all McD and Brady’s doing and it is just going to frustrate Josh. Now Brady is praising Josh for making those decisions- it can’t be. 🤦♂️ -
Yes he absolutely improved the 2nd half of last season. That got me excited and encouraged. He even seemed to somehow fix the crazy slice. But right out of the gate he gets hurt preseason. You're best ability is availability.

Simple rule of football, don’t leave your success dependent on a kicker or ref.

? I think the issue was that everyone was blasting it out of bounds and taking the touchback. Moving up the touch back made it so that teams would be incentivized to keep the ball in play.

Word seems to be out that Josh loves to "get" talk show hosts with a certain specific kind of joke. It happened initially on Pardon My Take, then Bussin Wit Da Boys. Think it came from Daboll originally. I'd imagine the punchline is -- Jamal deez nuts in your mouth!

Yep, we should have never extended him. How dare the Bills control the clock while scoring 30 points a game. Just flat out dumb. -

Two questions for then, why is Kimmel not showing us how much money his show makes? And why is Disney not replacing it with a like type show? I will point out that your pushing the concept that Kimmel was the only person being paid on his show proved again how proud you are to remain ignorant. -

I don't think Kimmel would sure ABC, the never said the show was cancled permanently. I think he would go after the govt/fcc. -
The missed field goal was pretty brutal. There is also the issue of Prater's age. He's 41 years old, and if the Bills opted to go with him, it would likely be a short term solution only. I don't think it is an easy decision at all for Buffalo.

Trade magazines said the FCC would pressure abc/diseny months ago. The expectation was there. It doesn't mean it's reality. Why did Sirius let xm/Sirius merge? Stern is way more offensive and disrespectful than Kimmel. It's about money. Stern made them money. Sirius fought it. -

Its such an easy question. I guess Im confused on how you just can’t answer it. -

A package of Bosa, Ed, Walker, and Hoecht on third and long could be very, very disruptive. -

I actually buy it for my niece and her kids. She texted me last night and said they'd understand if I canceled. The kids love disney so I'm not going to cut off my nose to spite my face.
