I'm obviously being a bit hyperbolic. I get the need. I just dont see it as big of a deal as so many other posters/fans who want to overly criticize him on it, since we can work around it in others ways.

Buffalo has WRs who block. Blocking does not present a particular injury risk for running backs, but slowing an onrushing defensive lineman by half a second could be the difference between a big pass play and a hastily thrown ball that falls harmlessly to the turf or worse, into the hands of a defender multiple times during the season.

He needs momentum for those plays when he fights for extra yards. If he gets caught in the backfield before he can start moving, he still goes down pretty easily. He is a good player. Happy to have him. But he has some limitations, which is why Ty Johnson gets playing time.

They have to account for him regardless, I appreciate having more flexibility. But I agree I want to get him the ball where he can use his vision and speed to make the BIG splash plays.

Maybe not. But plenty of us also said he'd never be able to run anyone over with his size/frame, and then he changed that last year. He's only 25 and still filling out. Might happen. (Might not).

Mine only jumped about 5% for the game tickets in 2026, so it must not be a directly proportional increase and is more dependent on section... Interesting

I’m not sure if the problem is the talent of players, or the quality of depth. When we get to the playoffs it seems our defense is decimated by injuries. Part of that may come from being fast but “smallish”, but we seem to run out of “guys”. We should not be interrupting AJ Klein’s vacations to help us in the playoffs. Maybe going so deep on defense in this year’s draft helps that, because I’m as sick of it as anyone.

Cook won't learn to block. He just doesn't have the frame for it.

Let the D know that he is going out as a receiver. Then they have to cover him with someone and it's one less pass rusher. Blocking by receiving. Or leave him open and let Josh dump it to him with 7 yards of open field in front of him. See how that goes.

.

I have concerns that the talent needs for McD's scheme to stop the league's top offenses when it matters are unrealistic. We've tried a lot of different combos of players and DCs but the song remains the same. No answers in January and they give up points and yards at a historic rate.

I don’t want him blocking all the time, but he has to at least be adequate enough so as not to tip off the D regarding what we are running. If he’s a blocking liability he hurts us, and if the D knows he’s sneaking out into the flats it makes it easier on them. I don’t want any “tells” because he’s not competent at an important aspect of the game. He doesn’t have to be great, but at least adequate to keep the opponents honest.

If you think what the Bills have done over the past five seasons is “slightly better than average” I really don’t know what to say. As for the premise of the thread…any fan who doesn’t appreciate what we have now and only measures success by one trophy is, in my opinion, delusional.

That latest gas tax in CA has Dems recalibrating the 2nd biggest hoax in human history.

Dec 28 will tell the tale. Gonna be a tough game for both teams that day.

Thank you. Thurman could pass block but he was devastating as a receiver. Cook will learn to block but as you said let him release as a safety valve. Josh will find the open guy and beat the blitz far more often than not.

That article is just a bunch of hand wringing over not reading Miranda rights to terrorists who may have knowledge of an immediate threat to public safety. That this guy felt it warrants serious discussion as some potential slippery slope attack on our rights just shows what a ***** ***** he really is

It's not and I don't. I'm not on X. why would I be? Perhaps the reasonably progressive reporters here at very few remaining newspapers thought it better to not give this scum any recognition. It happened and is widely known to have in the area.
