Long Suffering Fan

He is not even running full speed, his head is turned toward the QB at the release, and his footwork is telling. He doesn't even have to settle under it. My point is he misread the throw and that is an underrated WR skill. We are going to disagree on this, which is fine.

I'm not saying that Kincaid didn't do those things. I'm saying that he runs 15-20 yards or so after the ball is released and this was not a laser throw Look at his footwork just as he enters the frame and you can tell that he didn't track the ball well. It looks like he slows down, speeds up, and then realizes his mistake and slams on the brakes. The majority of the time an NFL WR (and even Dalton himself some of the time) would have settled under the ball and not over ran it.

Thank you both for posting that clip and that screenshot. This is an elite level play by Josh. I'll say it again - the drop is only half of the problem. Dalton adjusts to the ball late in the air. He should have been standing underneath it like he was fielding a punt. Fortunately, that is a skill that can be learned. He dropped it, yes, but first he made the catch harder than it needed to be.

This. Saying he is the most emotional GM paints him as if he is on some extreme. He is a normal dude. Calling him the most emotional makes it sounds like he is all up in his fee-fees and crying all the time. On the WGR segment, he was angry and defending his decisions, not crying and whining. Belicheck used to cultivate an angry persona of being a hair's breadth away from exploding so that people would not challenge him, maybe they caught Bean on a bad day, I don't know, but it was a normal reaction. And, yes, it probably wasn't fair to WGR because it was taken out of context from the whole show, but then I don't want my GM listening to WGR all day.

I'm with Gunner on this. As much as I love draft picks, a 5th or a 6th? I would much rather have Cook for another year. As much as some people pooh, pooh culture, this might be a spot where it helps. The family culture and the bond at least *seems* so strong on this team that it is hard to believe that this will get that ugly. Anything can happen, but I would expect that he will be back and play out the year. Meanwhile, I have no hard feelings towards Cook that is trying to use what leverage he has in order to get paid.

I'm largely in agreement with this. I might go farther. I was in the same spot as Jeremy when they drafted Allen. I believed the national articles about him. I can't be too critical of Jeremy for it because I did the same thing. The hosts end up talking sports for 20 hours of programming each week...even during the off season. Any host is going to make some bad calls. That is not unique to our market. National guys are often brutally wrong. But Brown and Tasker are homers! Sure, but I can't criticize them for being homers and then criticize the afternoon show for their everybody snacks snark. The fact is that WGR neither sucks nor is awesome. Personal taste will mean that I might like some people more than others, but Pete nailed it - it is still like oxygen.

It was a tough catch because Kincaid didn't adjust well to the ball in the air. His movement to adjust is so last second that it ramped up the degree of difficulty. It is an underrated skill. I hate to say it, but it is one of the reasons tyreek hill is so good downfield.

Something similar happened to his dad. Back in the day, I remember saying that Deon was the 2nd most exciting rookie named Sanders. Barry was the most exciting.

No! It's too perilous.

I love the pacing. I had a hard time keeping up with her quips. 👍

I'm putting another vote in for both Ty and McGovern. I don't watch/understand line play enough to diagram the difference, but his move to center contributed to the line getting much better. Ty....he is just amazing at what he does. He is a back up running back, might be the fastest guy on the team, and might have the best hands on the team. Fun Fact: The Buffalo Bills website still lists Amari Cooper as second string behind Mack Hollins. Not sure what is going on there.

At this point, I consider him a powerplay specialist. Imagine a forward that only played 5-6 minutes a night, but was on the first line powerplay unit. His total stat numbers will never compare to your best first liners. He is not out there enough so the total stats will look bad and the contract will look bad, but a guy that scores on the powerplay can win you a playoff series. If we win the Superbowl and Von has 3 sacks and a bunch of pressures in the playoffs while playing 15 snaps a game...he'll be a great signing.

The "S" in SEIZE stands for Seize....

I remember it as a bit of a fluke. A reporter was giving a report and there was practice going on in the background. Apparently the Bills ran a shuttle run play and they had never done that all year. Johnson saw it and prepared his defense for it. If I remember right, that was the Thurman fumble play, but to connect the fumble to that preparation seems like a stretch.

Agreed. OP, think of a saint bernard. What position would that dog play? That is a LB dog, for sure. Of course, now maybe you'll get saint and Christian mixed up. 😀 I'm with you OP. Although better than the alternative, its terrible getting old. Youth is wasted on the young.
