Efficiency is due to Josh Allen. In Vegas he was just thrown to a ton when they were losing by 30 points.

That’s the one I thought you meant. My memory simply failed me on year/team. He was targeted nearly 100 times that year (almost double what we targeted him) and he still had less TD’s and less yards per reception and a lower success % and a lower yards per target. Last season was his best. By far. Yeah. Anyone who looks at receptions to determine year is being statistically lazy.

Mack absolutely had his best year here. I’m sure you’re looking at 2021 with Miami when they forced him the ball 100 times and he got blowout mock-up duty, but last season was absolutely his best season. To that point, he received his largest contract ever after playing with Allen. After his 2021 season, he got a $2M contract. He just signed an $8M contract after playing with Allen.

Jags fans were done with him after 1 year 😂

Honestly it kind of sucks. Cant stream multiple TV's.

Yep. Allen was statistically at his worst when throwing to Gabe.

Down boy

Jerry Sullivan was definitely on there.

Yikes. Well its not hard to see why he fell.

Yeah those are funny!

It's coaching. And that's not a knock on our coaching. Both staffs are good - there's is just better. Example: The defensive blitz that Spags called on 4th down was absolutely masterful. Listening to Fitz and Allen and others say that he set the Bills offense up ALL GAME and ALL YEAR for just that *one call* is incredible. He had been showing that same look, over and over and over and over again, for months. But never end blitzed out of it. Because he knew that he would switch it up at the exact moment he needed to. Contrast that to Joe Brady ... who went back to the well and called the same 4th down concept he has run all year (and KC was prepared for).

I completely understand the rationale for Baltimore but until hey actually beat us when it matters, its KC. In fact, im not sure how anyone can pick anyone other than KC. They are 4-0 in the playoffs against us. This is like saying David isn't Goliaths biggest matchup because Gandolf is looking pretty strong this year.

Can he shave 10ths off? Because the kid is slow as molasses. He plays slower than his 40 time too … imo.

I agree (in general). But here is the question specific to Coleman; What traits does he have that makes you feel he will improve? His major limiting factor is not improveable: Speed. And McD/Beane separately and openly questioned his worth ethic. I think he is going to flash here or there, keeping fans clinging to hope, but never fully materialize.

Im confused why we didn’t keep Hollins I think NE signed him for about the same?

Yeah I don’t mind the move. But these type of moves never seem to work out.

Yeah I don't recall Josh ever getting to face AJ Klein when playing the Chiefs. Or getting to play against Daquan Jones with a bum arm (or was it shoulder?).

You must be using a different metric for "top 50". For example, you might be using top-50 in receptions. Which is not a good idea, because, for example, an injured top 10 receiver would not be in this list. My suggestion? Find a decent list of the top 50 WR's in the NFL. For example, if you want a large survey of the top 50 WR's, here is one. Over 250,000 NFL fans voted in this survey, so the results are likely relevant as it has a large sample set. In this survey of a quarter million NFL fans, a little more than a handful of the top 50 WR's were taken round 4 or later.

No. I think that's a very poor criticism. I think it is fair to criticize him for not going after elite WR's in the 1st round. Or trading for an elite WR after Diggs. But criticizing him for not taking a flyer on a middle round WR that has a 5% chance of becoming anything decent is not a valid criticism imo. If you look at the top 50 WR's in the NFL (which is pretty much every single 1st and 2nd WR), only a handful of them were taken after round 3 (or was it 4?). It's a very low success rate at that point. Of course, everyone remembers the outliers like Puka Nacua and Diggs... but for the most part, you better take a WR in the first round or two.

Beane is one of the most honest GM’s I have ever seen. I don’t think it even occurs to him to lie or “coach speak”.

“I dare you to say some sheot McAfee” - Beane, in his head

This is a great point. He essentially always going to have to make a tough catch because he is rarely ever going to not have a guy on his hip.

yeah, I’m really not sure what they saw in him. I’m not saying he’s a bad player or anything, but he certainly does not have any elite traits. Nothing that would make me want to pick him near the 1st round (first pick of the second round). He is the opposite of fast, and a player can make up for lack of speed if they are a great possession receiver… but he drops a crap ton of balls, too. I feel like he would’ve been a nice fourth round pick.

Mikie is an Allen hater. Dont bother
