Yeah, they're really not alike at all. Coleman's game reminds me more of like a Michael Irvin type (not that he's anywhere close to Irvin's level at this point). There's a smoothness and athleticism there that Gabe Davis clearly lacks.

Don't get me wrong. I'd love an elite punter and if we can upgrade in the offseason (or somehow during the season) then I'm all for it. I just don't view him as a liability at this point the way I do with Bass.

Martin is fine. He had a rough day yesterday statistically which is bringing his season numbers down quite a bit. Looking at his gamelog, he's been an average punter until yesterday. And his coverage team didn't do him much of a favor when he hit that nice one inside the five and they were completely fooled by the fake fair catch. Also, for those at the game, was he punting into the wind a bunch yesterday? Just wondering. He came through with a big punt from his endzone at the end of the Texans game. Unfortunately, we still managed to blow that one.

You hate to see it.

Terrible first half.

You've got to be kidding me. Ugh.

Lucked out there, but the defense is still a sieve.

Haha. I love that he did that at the exact moment I submitted my post. 🤣

Drake Maye is looking the part today. Throws a nice ball and the game appears to be slowing down for him. Then again, it's the Jaguars.

We only have him under contract for 11 regular season games. I'd hope we play him immediately.

Nice draft pick. You could see the potential last year. Now he's starting to realize it.

He looked like Jared Lorenzen. Not that there's anything wrong with that!

Yes, and compare that with his 12/14 from 40+ during the 2022 season. The dude's performance has fallen off a cliff.

I love this trade. We should again be a potent offense once he gets acclimated.

Josh Allen isn't going to be in his prime forever. Giving up a third rounder isn't the end of the world. And there are potentially expendable assets that we can trade to recoup it down the line.

I expect him to miss every single kick outside of 40 yards. And extra points seem like a 75% proposition at this time

I agree. He was crazy careless with the ball quite a bit in that game. He was just a hot mess in general and very lucky not to have a couple of picks to make his horrendous stat line even worse.

I'm expecting Monday night to be thoroughly unwatchable.

Two issues. First, is that without a healthy Shakir, our receivers absolutely suck. They're a bottom barrel garbage feeding group without Shakir. Second, Josh isn't a great anticipatory thrower. He's great at delivering accurate bullets when guys get separation. Stick the two together and you get a 9-30, 131 yard nauseating mess of a performance.

If you wouldn't have posted this after the Jacksonville game two weeks ago, and are willing to post it after a 3 point loss on a 58 yard field goal, then, yes, it's a knee jerk emotional response. As for your question, I also follow Padres baseball (live in SD) and UCLA football/basketball (alma mater). None of my major routing interests have ever reached the top of the mountain while I've been a fan (missed UCLA's last bball championship by 2 years). And I grew up going to every Bills home game for 12 years as a kid in the 80s/90s). Between wide right, homerun throwback and stuff like the below with UCLA, I know your pain. 😜

Geez, this board is really slipping of late. Can't believe some of the knee jerk responses/threads I've seen in the last 21 hours.

Skipping practice due to usage? Sounds like a real team player to me. And in what universe is this WR #1 production? https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/4361432/romeo-doubs Are we just trolling now regarding the WR situation?

No. I have no interest in an aging wide receiver. We chased the aging defensive end and look where that got us. This was always a bit of a retooling season anyway. And we didn't lose the game against the Ravens because of a lack of weapons, but because we were destroyed on both lines and outcoached. Be patient and wait for the draft and free agency to bring in that extra weapon for next year.

The more important question is whether this is enough money to bring in a second kicker.

Cook, Shakir and Kincaid all have big playmaking ability. Coleman with a big drop, but bounced back with some nice contested catches. You always look like crap when you get dominated. Sometimes you're the big, and that was the Bills tonight.
