That's true, but look at the reverse direction at the end of that Tiktok. (45-50 seconds) He's "on"
Definitely looks good

Looked like he had his "skinny bod" on, ready to go shirtless on the red carpet.
AND HE CAN MOVE!
He's always been able to move
He's an amazing athlete no doubt

I just heard this on the radio the other day (there are a bunch of similar common misstatements) …and I’m not desperate to be the grammar police….but….the correct phrase is “for all intents and purposes”….not intensive purposes. 😉
I have a dozen concussions from my football career
I'm glad I can remember where my car keys are 🤣

Imagine how much better he would be if he conditioned himself properly.
why be the best when you could be tenth best, I suppose.
Plenty of great left tackles don't peek till 29-30...
He definitely has the right mindset.. blocking for Josh Allen will only help
I think he still has the arrow up for another 2 years till he declines.. he hasn't plateau yet .. I think he can be our LT for 2-3 more years

Dawkins is absolutely one of my favorite players left
People hate on him... Call him fat.. lazy, overrated...
Advanced Statistically... He has been very good... One of only 4-5 tackles... With a pass blocking grade above 76 over 5 straight seasons
Lineman ebb and flow... Have a good year than a bad year... Only the best of the best stay consistent
And he's been healthy and super consistent the last 3-4-5... And blocks The blind side with the most amount of one-on-one blocks
And he stalwarts plenty of pass rushers
You the man Dion
There aren't 10 tackles in the NFL with pass blocking grades as consistent as Dion over the last five years combined

Love the first two paragraphs calling for more fluidity/flexibility in how we label WR traits, ESPECIALLY in light of how E-P passing concepts specifically seek to muddy up all that static, pedantic defining of individual roles. Each guy needs to be able to execute each route/responsibility in order for the offense to really hum.
As for the bolded, I'm of two minds. On one hand, yes the Bills had fallen in love with WR pre-snap motion where Gabe Davis (or sometimes Sherfield) very obviously motions/reduces down into box with the intent to run block...and they need a guy who can still do that effectively.
On the other hand, that was insanely predictable (think Davis' motion timing on own-goal-line backed up QB sneak against Vikings, or basically every other time he motioned to condense the formation -- minus that early TD play against Rams in 2022 NFL opener on the road at LA). There is a role for a run-blocking WR in this offense, FOR SURE. Might be part of why moving on from Diggs was palatable: he lacked that flexibility and physicality? I'd like to see what Brady's offense looks like with truly interchangeable WRs. WRs who can run after catch and put in an honest blocking effort while also being able to separate downfield. That's the E-P dream scenario.
Ignoring all that, Xavier Worthy represents a skillset and downfield threat that our current WR room lacks. McD and Beane have both mentioned a need for "explosive" passing plays. He's better all around that many casual fans realize, and in my opinion, offers blue-chip traits (long speed and explosivity) with enough else (hands and separation skills) to attract a GM like Beane. Allen can benefit greatly from a downfield threat like Brown, younger Diggs, younger Sanders, sometimes Davis, and whoever is next. We're missing that piece just as much, if not more, than we're missing a WR who can block.
Maybe Xavier Legette does both?
It's 2024... There is a difference between verbiage systems and schemes now
For all intensive purposes.. when someone says EP or West Coast... They're talking about the verbiage system... Not a specific scheme ... There still is a West Coast scheme but it is differentiated from the system
You can run any single play with West Coast verbiage or EP verbiage... The difference is how it gets out
It's not like 50 years ago where the systems was built for specific schemes.. so a team using the corryell system was vastly different than a team using the West Coast system
Nowadays that's not the case
Every single play in football has been ran.. it's over 100 years old ... You can run an uptempo vertical spread offense from the EP.. or a West Coast zone run scheme from the EP
South Right Clamp Fake 67 Slant Naked Right Zebra Slide Can 67 Slant... That will be a call in a West Coast system... Really wordsy , and a lot to memorize
F Right 72 Ghost/Tosser.. same call in EP
It's a lot easier to get out.. which is why teams have gone to the EP.. it has nothing to do with the types of plays you can use but how you relays information

I kinda like it. he's a quality coach, he takes a step up for future opportunities and oh by the way, one of his players is in the transfer portal and has SU on his short list. This is a great move that potentially fills 2 holes, g-mac and judah mintz
I feel like we are taking there guard now lol

yeah wtf? I always thought Brady was on the shorter side as far as QBs go, for some reason…
Brady is a solid 6'4
Not even close to small ... Edelman calls him a Clydesdale lol

The last couple of years he was a major problem child. Not all of the information is public. Aaron Kromer's daughter tweeted out "Good riddance" in response to the initial trade news which should give you an idea of the sort of reputation he had behind the scenes. As a player on the field he was amazing (until the last half of last season), but off the field he was a nuisance. Personally I'm glad that he's gone, knowing some of the things that I know.
And Jordan Poyers brother bashed the bills organization on the way out
And said that they don't treat the players as good as they say they do and it's all an act
So now do we piss on Jordan poyer? Or is maybe his brother salty too

Diggs is right and I've been saying it for years
The Buffalo Bills fan base is the best and worst of the NFL
Some great fans... And literally the scum of the Earth... Bills Mafia is disgusting on the internet
So yeah it's easy to not piss on him on the way out when he's literally getting vile treatment

Spencer Rattler...put him on Washington, or LSU, or Oregon, or Michigan or Florida State or whatever and I just wonder if the results are different. There is something about him...I'm not typically a small quarterback guy, but I find him interesting in terms of the arm talent and athleticism. The wrist flick on some of his deep throws are just different.
His college film isn't much different than Patrick Mahomes' was. I think if Rattler gets in the right situation he will make it.
he was in a tremendous situation at Oklahoma and couldn't get it done
He obviously improved and was a top HS QB so has a great arm
But OU instantly get better when they went to the true freshman Caleb Williams who looked like a #1 overall pick
Rattler was supposed to be that guy but took a while to develop
He has the tools of a starter but he's missing some stuff
4th round but that's a good QB in that round

I'm kinda old.
When did the X, Y, Z nomenclature take over?
WR1, TE, Slot
Or from my early days: Split End, Tight End, Flanker (that one was before my time, but I knew what it meant)
Isn't it all the same thing, different name? Or am I missing some subtlety here?
Flanker and split end are just old school names for alignments
The x is the split end.. he is lined up on the line of scrimmage and cannot motion
The z is the flanker and lined off the line of scrimmage

Building a bond. Bills haven’t done this since 2020. Mahomes literally runs his own passing camp at his house every year.
You have no proof that Josh Allen does not work out with his receivers in the off season
You're talking about a kid who had a world class work ethic now all of a sudden since he got good he's a bum with getting chemistry with teammates

There were a couple of kicks last year that were i some pretty bad weather conditions with the wind & rain, he will still be one of the better kickers in the league.
I think it's his women's fault - just saying . Josh went through a time when him & the one girl broke up & Bass was planning his wedding last season so he was distracted by all the questions and other things on his mind & we know he sure wasn't practicing football in his free time so there's that plus the - should i get a pre nupp or should i not 🤔 😆 .
He'll be alright after the honey moon LOL ...
Your kicker can't have The yips because of a woman

Before my time, but that wasn't just a QB losing his elite WR was it? It was a QB moving from a great team to a less great one.
Montana also won two super bowls without Jerry Rice

this is it- bjorquez sucked as a holder and our current punter Martin sucks as a holder as well.
i don;t know man. i see every packer game where i live and the kicking game was terribile when he started holding. it is more than just laces- is the ball placed correctly in the X and Y directions to mesh with the kickers stroke? this was a big part of his and Martin's problem.
Yet he's still gets jobs everywhere and holds for every team

So....when McKenzie shot the bald eagles, he was just trying to "take one for the team"?
(OK I know there's gonna be someone....WE'RE JOKING HERE, OK?)
I think Mckenzie was trying to take one for his restaurant 😳bald eagle BBQ
And yes PETA it's a joke

Wait, @Buffalo716, Just what are you saying here?
Are you trying to tell me that footballs ARENT stuffed with feathers? I thought the feathers were to help them fly!
You caught me being snarky
Of course a football is stuffed with eagle feathers

100% and it's even more true for the player who takes himself off the field more than anyone else on his team! He had become the guy interested only in plays where the ball was 1. Going in the air and 2. Designed to go to him. He's a team player as long as it's Team Diggs! Brady invites more QB options on pass plays than Prince Stefon liked- good luck in Houston where you're already 3rd in line at the feeding trough!
Take himself off the field more than anybody?
He played 82% of the snaps.. which is certainly not always taking yourself off the field... And had a back injury that landed him on the injury report
No back injury clears up in a week or two
So he certainly was hobbled which is why he probably would take himself out
But he did play 82% of snaps on The year
Tyreek Hill played like 68% for comparison

He is highlighting his effort, which was crap.
You could also find clips of him having good effort though... That is indisputable
Playing 82% of snaps at wide receiver.. you're going to get beat up.. dinged... Tired
All of that takes a toll on your play
Did his effort decline as the year went on? Sure... Was he also on the injury report for a back injury? Yea
Does a back injury clear up in a week in the NFL? Hell no
You cannot find me one current Superstar wide receiver... Who blocks like his hair is on fire every single play
You're going to get some lazy snaps
But playing devil's advocate... If somebody like this coach is going to show his lazy snaps.. he should also show the snaps where he blocked hard because they do exist

Yeah, he was terrible on non-pass plays.
Sure there are always a few plays, where you don't get maximum effort blocking from every wide receiver
Stefon diggs also laid some really good blocks here over 4 years.. 100% he had some good blocks including one that sprang Knox for a touchdown
You can find clips of every single wide receiver doing what diggs did in that clip
