    Anyone sitting at home with a few weeks of legs left? Dee Ford, Pernell McPhee, Alex Okafor? Back up plan if Von is out longer and Greg R does not heal up quick. 


     

    Bradley Chubb was available but draft capital 

     

    Can’t just dump the 25th - 31st pick
     

    If we have to watch him and Jeff Wilson Jr lead Miami to a division title or more, OBJ go to Dallas, CMC lead the 49ers to a SB well -   Boogie Basham James Cook Terrel Bernard AJ Epenessa and Matt Araiza’s lawsuit - these are the reasons we won’t.  Not counting on the 2022 rookies but they should have been expendable capital (trade up for Hall?  Pickens?) for this years team.  The future is now.  Ffs
     

    They built this team they get all the credit in the world for turning it around.  
     

    But the Miller contract was needed because Boogie and AJ weren’t enough and Groot was still an unknown.  Miller is 33.  We gave him that deal hoping for 2-3 years of great to elite production.  
     

    Injuries NEED to be planned for.  They are INEVITABLE.  
     

    You don’t want just 1 elite WR you need two.  You don’t want just one elite DE find a way to get 2.  You don’t just want one good RB you need 2.  Some of us were pounding the table for this all off season.    
     

    Eagles 49ers Dolphins Bengals Chargers Vikings all understand this.  

     

    What about the Chiefs?  They have the ultimate cheat code in Kelce.  But they’re as flawed currently as us - JuJu and “the others” are enough so long as Mahomes plays great.  If Mahomes is off they won’t win.  And he’s been great since they lost to us.  
     

    Because our D is decimated, that’s us now.
     

    Allen will need to catch fire for this team to win it all.

    Going into the season, a lot of the buzz about the offense was about Gabe Davis "taking the next step" and becoming a big time WR2. Now, a significant portion of fans say he is a disappointment. 

     

    I think a fair expectation going into the season to be considered a top end WR2 would be a season with 60-70 receptions, 900-1,000 yards and 7-9 TDs. 

     

    Davis missed 1 game due to injury, so in the 10 games he has played he now has 33 receptions, 650 yards and 5 TDs. How does that compare to expectations?

    • He ranks #22 in receiving yards per game, and the only WR2s ahead of him are Waddle and Higgins.
    • Only 10 WRs have more TDs
    • At 65 yards per game, that extrapolates out to 1,105 over 17 games. If he averages 65/game the rest of the year, it would be 1,040 in 16 games.
    • He has 5 TDs in 10 games played so if he keeps up that pace he will have 8 TDs.
    • The receptions are lighter, he would end at 53 at 3.3/game

     

    Yes, the drops are not good, but if you were asked before the beginning of the season would you take a 53-1,040-8 stat line for Davis this year? I am guessing almost everyone would, especially if you said Diggs was going to also have the year he's having. 

     

    I have thought for a long time a lot of Bills fans overvalued Don Beebe, whose career highs with the Bills were 40 catches ('94) and 554 yards ('92). Davis is moving into undervalued territory.


     

    I love Davis.  Want him to be the man but there is no denying it hasn’t happened this year.  Maybe he needs 1 more year - Mike Williams did.  
     

    What are Davis stats and ranks if you take away the Pittsburgh game?  My guess it’s very hideous looking.

    Google lateral meniscus tear and you see 4-6 weeks which puts Miller back Week 16 to Round 1 of playoffs. Could have been worse. Hopefully he comes back for the playoff run.


     

    He’s 33 years old. 
     

    And that’s the look I saw.  It wasn’t that he thought it was like a season ender - it was a look like “this is absolutely not what you want at my age.”

     

    To the guy that posted the thread about whining about next year - yea sorry.  It was. 
     

    We’re a playoff team no doubt.  The injuries have killed us.  But Allen will need to be January 2022 Allen for us to win it all.  
     

    I’m not confident solely because we have a rookie OC.  But we’ll see.  
     

  4. Hurt

     

    Poor OL

     

    Defenses don’t care about our RBs in pass D.  They don’t care about our RBs at all.  

     

    OC is inexperienced and still figuring things out

     

    We might be holding back trying to win “vanilla” then go from there

     

    Why is Nyiem Hines here?   
     

    We have no slot WR that position took 100 plus targets from Josh a season.  
     

     

    Despite these Josh is on pace for 5000 yards passing and most importantly he continues to win games.

    We have no starting caliber edge rushers left. Elam is nowhere to be seen. Edmunds is out. Hamlin much worse than Hyde. All that investment on the defense for nothing.


     

    Makes you wonder about how much should be vs the offense.  These guys drop like flies league wide we’ve just been lucky the last 2 seasons - but even last year we lost White and we all knew we were ***ed
