Stop feeding the trolls. The pissing contest is an exhausting scroll. -
The Worthy Trade Keeps Looking Worse and Worse
EmotionallyUnstable replied to Bills Costa Rica's topic in The Stadium Wall
The most frustrating thing to me is not a physical limitation, because despite being widely criticized for being slow, it really isn’t his speed that has impacted his production. Looking back at the game from Sunday, this incompletion that was nearly picked - Olson nailed it on the broadcast - he telegraphed his break at the top of the route, making it obvious by declaring what he was doing, almost gearing down and slowing into his break. You can try to say it was the snow but it is a reoccurring theme: the nuance in his routes are non-existent. If you want to see what this SHOULD look like, check out Jameson Williams. It’s a different route, vs different coverage, with different field conditions but the concept of the break is the same. Notice the break at the top from 60 to 0 in a flash (top of the screen) These type of routes will continue to be useless if he cannot learn the intricacies of route running. Looking at two completions: 1) He completed a little stick route in zone coverage for 8 yards. 2) slant by the goal line was one step and go. The best thing the Bills and Coleman can do to get the most out of him is to make him deliberate and as straight with his routes as possible. (drag, over, bang, slant, post, go). Anything with a quick and sharp change in direction or speed (out, dig, curl, hook, hitch, choice) is likely going to be easily covered because of his tendency to show his hand at the break. -

Some people are just so selfish. Higgins ran a deep over and he ran through Thompson’s zone. That is a very common occurrence in pattern matching in zone for a LB. It is not like they’re lining him up 1v1 against a receiver and asking him to play man. -
An Observation during broadcast of Bills/Bengals
EmotionallyUnstable replied to BobbyC81's topic in The Stadium Wall
Idk who the guy is by name, but it is likely an offense quality control staffer looking at how they’re matching personnel or something along those lines -
This can be the passing staple

Although in high school, I know down south there has been a re-emergence of the single wing. A buddy of mine just started running it last year in NC, and I know in FL and TX a number of very strong programs are running it -

It was also a first down obv which we’ve shown early a strong tendency to run the football. Those LBs were at about the LOS by the time Allen pulls the ball. They stood no chance. Much harder to find succees against man coverage than the zone they ripped on that first play but you have to be encouraged by the use of the middle of the field, tendency breaker, willingness to PA under center. Another random thing I thought interesting is that this was one of the few plays they actually pulled lineman. Everything else was very down hill, zone and duo. . The Brady special as I call it: the modern day triple option… RPO zone read w/ bubble. -
If he signed for 8-10 million I’d be shocked. That 8.7 in two years would put him as the 18th highest paid TE by average contract value THIS season. Cost will only go up. Some recent deals for the upper tier, not elite guys: Mark Andrews - 13 million Jake Furgeson - 12 million Pat Freirmeurh - 12 mil Dalton Schultz - 12 Cole Kmet - 12 If he signed this offseason, I’d fully expect him to be in that range, let alone in two years it could absolutely be 15 mil. To me it is more about the guarentees, when they give them and the length of the contract (he’s already 26y/o).

This is not universally true for first round players. Although this past off season we saw a few guys on 4 year deals get re-upped after 3 years (Bernard, Cook, Benford, Shakir). When it comes to first rounders they’ve done this with Allen and Tre White after theee years, but most recently have waited until after the 4th year to extend Ed Oliver and Greg Rousseau.

MNF: Eagles vs. Chargers (no Bills stuff please)
EmotionallyUnstable replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
I thought it was weird Buck and Aikman were applauding him for not tackling a live ball carrier 🤷♂️ -
They should be fined for this. Just unbeliable the NFL pretends to promote safety and allows this to happen.

7 yard line ain’t bad for Kc based on the other punts -

The end of the game is a win/win in my book. No matter what happens here, it helps the Bills OR my ego IMO -
