I thinks there's a multitude of reasons. We know the Bills tend to bring rookies on slowly and with the vets of Crowder early on and McKenzie, he wasn't getting time to build the trust with Josh and as I said in other posts a 47% catch rate doesn't help. With McKenzie not being great against zone, I would have expected more snaps for Shakir and I do expect more going forward. He's still got time to learn and find ways to get seperation, but he's got to catch it when he IS targeted. I think tonight will be a good time for him to show what he's learned and what he can do.

And he is doing that. But when you have 5+ years of data and averages, you can't really expect a LOT more than what he's alrready shown. If you expected 80+ catches and 800-1,000 yards, your expectations are way off.

Really had to think this week. Obviously my original thought was my man Lil Dirty, but I read somewhere that the Pat's have been playing more Zone lately and BB is not going to let him terrorize him like last season😉. So I thought maybe Shakir, but with a 47% catch rate, don't think the trust is there yet with Josh. Plus too big of a game. I'm going with Motor on offense. Whether it's helping block to keep JA clean or some dump offs, I think it will be his play that will have the biggest impact. Honorable mention to John Brown if he plays (and still has his speed). I think some go routes can pull the safeties out of the middle and open it up for others and Motor could have extra space to work in. On D, I'll go with Tre. Think Pat's will try and test him and will regret it. 2 picks and and it shows why patience is a virtue. 🙏. Go Bills!!!

I think people are dissing McKenzie because of incorrect expectations. When I look at his stats for the season, he is actually around his averages or above in most cases since being here. Reality is, he is not Beasley and won't be. If the coaches thought he would be, they wouldn't have drafted Shakir or brought in Crowder. Team knows what they have. McKenzie is a Man match up wr and not a zone wr. His best plays are on the move, not sitting down in a zone. Hopefully we will see him go off again tonight. 😁

Do you have grandchildren as that's not even a funny Dad joke.🤪

Is he trying to sweat out a couple of extra pounds from Thanksgiving?🤣

Wouldn't hate it, but I think he's done. Now, if we were going to pull someone out of "retirement", I'd go with D. Williams. 😉

Well, they may have got a little of their PB&J back.😉

LOL. I was thinking Sanders. 😁

A really odd choice for an emotional support animal. But to each their own.😉

On football Sunday!? Yes of course!😁

I agree. I put it in one of my other posts that I wish I had the all 22 to look at to see. I am all for Shakir and rooting for him to be successful. But with a 47% catch rate and 0 targets in the last 2 games? I can see why this thread was started.

And you won't get targets if your not getting open.

Love the PB&J dance from Brown. Only thing better was Josh trying to do it.🤣🤣

With all of the ankle injuries this season, may want to double up on the tape.😉

I just think he needs to change his jersey #.😉

Sent all of my Thanksgiving wishes early, put my phone in airplane mode (other than wifi), stood proudly and sang the anthem ( in a mans voice,😉 thank God I was alone🤣) and posted the below image during the game.

All good, but it could be a "Rocky Road".😉

Not all of us.😉

Physically, the question will be mentally. Nothing like your first game back, being the same day game you went out.😬. Hope he is really ready, because this could be a really good test.

The bird or the whiskey?😉

Hopefully Dorsey got my text. Time to get down and Lil' dirty!!!

Oooohhhh, You'll get some people on you about that. 😬. I actually like them though.😁.

Maybe it's a good thing. Isn't it like 7-8 of Josh's interceptions against a defense wearing white jerseys? He seems to like throwing to white.🤣🤣

Really? I thought he was learning to play saftey. That's why it's taking so long.🤪
