    What does that actually say?

     

    Their WR corps has been mostly total shite since they broke up the explosive 2002 group when trading Peerless Price.   The league has changed A LOT since then.

     

    It's about their positioning relative to the rest of the league.    There are WR corps around the league with multiple superstar WR options AND also then depth to boot.   The Bills aren't one of those.    

     

    Stef Diggs is their best WR since Andre Reed...........but the Bills WR corps as a unit are Steffy Diggs and the Pipps.

     

    A star and a bunch of harmonized one-notes picked to run a Patriots style offense.   Not much speed,  very little RAC ability.  Also they are perilously thin at TE and they have no receiving threat out of the backfield.     

     

    IMO the best WR corps they have had since Goodell legislated hitting out of the passing game(2010) is the one they started the season with last year.    Healthier, younger and more diverse because they had more speed.

     

       

    It is that way everywhere. Take Davante Adams off the Packers and a very good receiving core becomes substandard. that stud elevates everyone since every position gets to play one position down in the opponents depth roster. Rarely there may be a number two good enough but unlikely the three or four excels facing better coverage.

    If that happens mid 3rd Quarter it is OPI but there is a kind of unwritten understanding that the officials try to avoid deciding games late with contentious calls. I was fine with the no call there. I thought it was OPI but it was not egregious.  

    It if it's a penalty in the third, if should the in the fourth. Calling that isn't the ref deciding the game, it is the player deciding by committing the penalty. And a sliding scale for what is a penalty creates the situation where a player has to change their game depending in how he thinks the refs are going to change their calling the game.

    Some folks have been wondering how the media that seemed hesitant to anoint Allen the next great qb even after last year seem to now be quickly bringing him into that conversation. It could be recency bias, but I think the way Allen moved the team down the field in the preseason against the Packers was taken as an indication that he's matured to the point that he is willing to move slowly down the field if that is what the defense dictates. If Josh doesn't get impatient, you won't be able to stop him; and there will always be the big plays, so this is not an argument to become a dink-and-dunk team for those who are worried about that.

    I agree, they were looking for regression and he showed none so it is a lot easier to accept he is that damn good.

    Lmao! She is so chill about the whole thing..."oh that was so nice of you" hahahaha

     

    I haven't owned anything other than Toyota or Honda in 25 years and doubt I ever will. Those cars last forever.

    My brothers who both worked for Toyota since they opened the plant in Georgetown 30 years ago thank you for your support even though they have the bad taste to be a Buccaneers and  a Saints fan.

    Pats claimed WR Malcolm Perry.  He played QB for Navy and converted to WR.  He could play QB in a pinch.

    It you are an military academy quarterback you did not throw many passes. I'm sorry, I an retired military and watched many inter service games, they are not prepping you to be an NFL QB.

    These look like 16 game projections, not 17.

     

    I don't care about the other two, but here are my Josh projections:

     

    4,900 Passing Yards, 42 Passing TD's, 600 Rushing Yards, 7 Rushing TD's.

    From your lips to God's ears. He has that season we are in the championship game again.

    I would love if the Dolphins actually mortgaged their future to trade for Watson.  

     

    But there's a part of me that probably thinks just having them stick with Tua and Flores is better for the Bills in the long run

    I think they would be a borderline wild card every year but nothing more than that with that combo... And I have no issue with it.

    He’s looked fantastic this pre-season and that’s

     

    I would caution anyone looking to draft Diggs early in fantasy to maybe not do so this year. Diggs will likely lead us in receiving again but I don’t expect him to come close to 1500 yards and 120 receptions.  I could see Davis, Beasley and Sanders all going over 60 receptions which will cut into Diggs share. I also see the TE and RB groups combined each combining for a greater number of receptions this year.

    I was going to pick him up in our draft last night, he went two rounds earlier than I expected. Folks outside our circle see things in him was well. And Hollister got drafted but that is my fault for planting the seed he might see more involvement in one of the best offenses in the game.
