    It's starting to feel like all the negative hype created by Cover 1 and a couple WGR people was just because they heard Josh was getting testing done on the UCL. If that's all they heard and they used it to create cryptic pessimistic BS online I will never post them on this site again. If they want to be more than a Mickey Mouse operation they need to have better standards than that.

     

    The upside is usually if I heard Allen was going to miss one game or more I would be freaking out, but now that my mind had drafted towards season-ending injury territory anything less than that will feel like good news.

    I got a lot of love for the Cover1 boys but they may have stepped in it badly on this one.

    Which is why they should get him blockers and better receivers instead of drafting first round corners to play in a zone system that 6th round picks and UDFAs tend to succeed in.

     

    But hey, I guess "some things will never change."

     

     

    I said it on draft day, the Elam pick was gross. Beane is yet to draft a WR on day one or two his whole Bills tenure. Yes Diggs but he's one guy! And by my reckoning Cody Ford is the only such pick on the OL.

    He has only 38 targets, yet 451 yards for a whopping 25 YPC and 18.4 YAC.  He has 3 drops all season and 4 of his intended targets were INTs tossed by Josh.

     

    But yes, by all means, a demotion is in order....

    Oh look stats and not even advanced ones. He's MIA for two weeks now and dropping critical balls.

    I don't know what to think of the Jets defense.  On the one hand, they've got great stats.  On the other hand, while they won against Denver and GB, those teams don't exactly have juggernaut offenses these days. 

     

    I'm curious what the Jets DVOA rankings say about them.

     

    Jets opponents:

    Ravens 5-3 L

    Browns 3-5 W

    Bengals 4-4 L

    Steelers 2-6 W

    Dolphins 5-3 W

    Packers 3-5 W

    Broncos 3-5 W

    Patriots 4-4 L

    Looks as though the Dolphins are the only W against a team with a winning record, and they were playing their 2nd and 3rd string QB when the Jets beat them

     

    Bills opponents:

    Rams 3-4 W

    Titans  5-2 W

    Dolphins 5-3 W

    Ravens 5-3 W

    Steelers 2-6 W

    Chiefs 5-2 W

    Packers 3-5 W

    Have a defense that has similar stats, but playing against better opponents overall.

     

    I think that's the sort of thing DVOA is supposed to take into account?

     

    Of course, some like to do the "well, Jets beat the Dolphins, and Dolphins beat the Bills so..." thing

     

    I don't have access but I think I heard the Jets D is 8th in DVOA.

    No idea who Hines is (I had to Google him) but we’ve all clearly seen enough from Moss…and so had the Bills obviously. Being on the west coast I saw a lot of Moss while he was at Utah. He was great in college. It shows how hard it is to evaluate these kids. I’m hoping he gets a fresh start in Indianapolis. 

    I could see Moss having some success elsewhere. He knows he's been a disappointment here and he's been pressing trying to make something happen. He looks nothing like his college tape at his point.

     

    On another team he can just be one of the boys again rather than a disappointing draft pick. A fresh start for him.

    What did he say about his practice habits?

    Check out how he answers the final question here, it's clear he's talking about a young player they're working with in Cook who they feel has things to learn.

     

    There's no crime in that. The Bills have a high standard in their building, on their practice field. It's not just well what did he do with his touches on Sunday.

     

    Once upon a time Ed Oliver was called out for his habits and Matt Milano was moved to second string during camp and look at those dudes now.

    The Bills will never tell you why, but assume this is true, I don’t know how any regular fan could deduce that the Bills would be waiting for Cook to develop when he’s produced good numbers when given more than 1-snap a game. 
     

    He had 76 yards on 6 touches the other night not in garbage time. 

    Could be pass protection.

     

    McDermott also made a comment about his practice habits. 

     

    For whatever reason they've made it clear with their actions all season long they don't trust him yet to have a major role in the offense.

     

    Come January they want players on the field they know they can trust, not "well I hope he grows into it by then."

     

    They can still be excited about his long term prognosis.

  8. I like it. A good pass catcher with some explosiveness is a good complement to Singletary.

     

    Cook can keep working on his pass protection, bulk up in the offseason and try again next year.

     

    The priority is winning the championship, not proving some point about the 2nd round pick.
