    The Jets are not going to contend with the “brain trust” of Rodgers, Saleh, and Hackett. The first is shot, and the next two are horrible at their jobs.  They will be lucky to get 8 games out of Mike Williams, although that is still possibly an upgrade over Randall Cobb.

    The Jets could roll with Jesus Christ at WR and still find a way to F it up.  Zero worries

    A lot of people probably say the same about us. We have Josh Allen playing like an alien and cannot find him weapons in find ways to choke in the playoffs. Spend a ton of money on D and have a head coach that is supposed to be a D genius but chokes in the playoffs and cant stop anyone. Not to mention the weird and crazy ways we have lost games because of bad decisions. 

  2. Easy to laugh at Jets but if they stay healthy they may contend. Rodgers has had a lot of rest so could come back and have a good year. He has a solid OL now with Hall at RB and Wilson and Williams at WR. They draft Bowers or see what WR is available. That is a solid O.

    5 sacks last year apparently .. they are probably giving  him some guaranteed money

     

     

    What is funny is 4 of the 5 came when he was not starting and played less snaps. Once his snap count went up the sack numbers came down - only one once he started playing.

    Is there any successful precedent for one guy being COO of two separate pro sports teams? I don't follow other sports like football and have not idea but it seems odd to me. Why not get a football guy to focus on football?

    Dollar bills ya'll

    Yes he was. And was a big proponent of the awful Toronto games...

    I get the comparison to Beasley... He's LIKE Beasley, but he will be able to do so many other things for you do to speed.  John Brown Like Bubble screen type stuff.. Lil Dirty type stuff... at times run out of the backfield. Catch out of the backfield.  He's also not a Debo... but he can do a lot more things.. So just comparing him to Beasley does not do this guy justice. 

    That is not doing Beasley justice. Beas had a better career pre Buffalo than Samuel. But I get what your saying - different players and different skillset. Samuel is more flexible and versatile than Beasley. Beasley was a better pure slot but Samuel adds more trickery, running out of the backfield, etc.

    Maybe if our receivers were better than Mahomes’, we would’ve been to a Super Bowl.

     

    Unfortunately, we got stuck with Trent Sherfield and his alligator arm efforts led us to need a FG to tie in the closing minutes. Which was predictably shanked. 
     

    No one is saying Beane sucks or the Bills suck. Their WR management and group has been overall insufficient. Who could argue this? No one.

     

    I know you can’t even debate it because you hilariously aren’t even trying to. You just say things like, “we won the AFCE” like that has anything to do with the conversation. 
     

    If you want to tell me that the investments into the WR group over the last 3 seasons have been good, I’d love to hear why. Otherwise, you just want to wave poms poms and you should just quit while you’re behind.

    If Hopkins is a Bill in that playoff game vs KC the Bills win. No doubt.

  7. It is okay if Samuel plays a Beasley type role for the Bills. I know many want to turn him into this #2 threat that is an upgrade over Davis and game changer. But that is not likely what this move is. Unless he breaks out after 7 years in the league and completely changes his game. Hey, that could happen I guess.

    I’ve seen several different numbers on his usage.  Not sure why - guess we have to pick someone to be believe

     

     

     

    People need to throw out 2021. Didn’t really play.

    Yes and have you ever watched him play.  He played a role in Washington that did not take full advantage of his skill set.  His speed and quickness are clearly evident.  If you really doubt his big play ability, look back at his Ohio State video.  He didn't get picked 40th overall for doing nothing.  Allen will be the first good passer that he has played with in the NFL.  He didn't have great air yard stats because of QB play, not because he can't get open down field.

    He was a rb / wr combo. Actually more of an rb coming out of Ohio state. He has been successful converting to a wr in the nfl but is not what many on this board want to say he is. People think because he is fast that he must be a deep threat. No. Doesn’t mean he is not a good player just not that. And it’s not because how he was used but it was to focus on what he does well.

    There is absolutely no comparison between Samuel and Crowder.  Samuel is a faster, bigger, stronger player.  He is a big play threat because of his ability to run after the catch.  Crowder was never a big play threat.  Samuel played a lot in the slot in Washington because Dotson and McLaurin don't.  He also played with very bad QB's.

    Have you looked up Samuel’s longest reception each year? His avg reception. Big play threat? Really?

    Then you are saying Diggs shouldn't be outside. Same size and faster than Diggs.

     

    Sorry the narrative doesn't hold water. 

    Well his career thus far supports it. He has thrived as a slot not an outside guy.

    Yeah, the opinions of the fan base don't line up with that of the leagues decision makers.

     

    People were hyper critical of Davis. It was excessive. He was a decent #2 wr and vastly outplayed his draft slot. He wasn't a top shelf #2 (aka 1b) but he wasn't paid or drafted as one.

     

    I like the signing and am good with Davis moving on. Not sure it's the upgrade many think. That comes from the draft.

     

     

    I look at this as an upgrade over Harty. We know need our 1st round pick to upgrade Davis.

    I would bet money that our first round pick will be defense. 

    Yeah we can just talk about needing a wr for the next 5-10 years and then Draft one after Josh is done.

    Davis could never get on the same page as Allen, and it led to key drops and turnovers.

     

    We want guys who can catch the ball, and we signed two of them. One a huge target, and the other is very good when he gets the ball in his hands.

     

    People complain no matter what. Allen needs help, but you get some and it's just more bitching and moaning

    Not complaining. Solid addition to the room. We still need to hit on our WR in the first round.

    Davis - Yards/Reception for his career 16.7. Yards/game 42.7.  Success % 51.5

    Samuel - Yards/reception for his career 10.7. Yards/game 37.2.  Success % 48

     

    Not sure how he is an upgrade on anything.  He doesn’t stretch the field as well as Davis, he does gain more yards despite more catches, and he doesn’t help 1st downs at a greater rate than Davis.  

    Do you know the other thing he doesn’t do as well as Davis?  He doesn’t stay as healthy. 

     

    Samuel - never wore a bills uniform = Will be an upgrade. that is always the mindset on this board. I think he will be solid. But I also thought crowder and sanders would. We will see but anyone outside of these walls sees Davis as the better player.
