He lead the way for AP, and his 2,000 yard season. Why not use him more to help your o-line or help in pass block? Its not like we currently have WR's to get on the field.
That's just false. Rodgers, Brady, Big Ben, Wilson, etc etc, all have terrible lines.
QB's that can read pressures, and recognize blitzes, and call certain protections improve o-line play.
That wasnt really the point. We will continue to do this blame game dance until we have one. Yes, obvious. but this finger pointing is all for nothing. When that is solved, we will win.
Call it obvious, sure.
The elements thing, means very little to me. Yea I get it, it is Buffalo and it snows, but that is maybe 1-2 games a season, maybe. Sometimes none at all. and with the talk of a new stadium (I fully believe It's gona be a dome) I think the elements will be eliminated.
Guess it is a agree to disagree scenario on Cook.
He is just so unimpressive to me. A career Completion % below 60 is not very good. That is only going to get worse in the pros.
IF you transitioned his numbers to the pros, in terms of completion % he would rank in the high 30's low 40's for ALL QB's.
He is Ryan Tannehill, Alex Smith.
Also this:
Completion %.
EJ Manuel at FSU - 66.9%.
Connor Cook at MSU - 58%.
I wish all football games could start at 9:30AM. to be honest. Be over and out of the house by noon.
I did get pissed off yesterday, and I did because I bought into the hype, like many others. I am looking forward to the bye week where if I watch football, great, if i don't, great. It will all depend on the weather.
ON average an NFL team gives up about what 320-330 yards per game, and what 21 points a game? A good defense a little less. EJ Manuel gave the Jags 16 points. This defense played better than average and gave up an additional 17 points, and lost.
Giving up 17 points would put Buffalo at Number 2 in the NFL on average.
Um, Ask Green Bay about defense, when they gave up 500 pass yards and won. Until you have a QB, you will lose more than you win. End of story. The Defense can not be held accountable for 17 of the points the Offense handed Jacksonville.
I will say it a million more times. Until the Bills find a QB they will be a 7-9 win team.
You can fire as many coaches as you want, as many GMs as you want. Blame as many "aspects" of the game as you want.
Until you find a guy that can beat out a team who puts up 20+ on you, you are going to have the same season over and over and over again.
No just no. Can we blame the Denver GM because everyone thought he got good value for Peyton Manning but inreality he just got an old Peyton Manning? I mean it hasnt worked out for them and all. Demarcus Ware, old and injured. Aqib Talib, old and injured. He must suck too.
