Jerome007 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 4 hours ago, Logic said: Foster and Brown on the outside running deep routes, opening up the underneath area for Zay Jones and Cole Beasley out of the slot. Add a big-bodied tight end to the mix and this offense is in business. And people... don't forget Allen's running abilities! He can't spin around people but give him a straight field and he has shown amazing speed. 20+ yard runs are great and demoralizes defenses. It should open up Shady's runs too, which happens to also be a very good receiver IMO. I suspect the Bills will be a pass happy team first and foremost. Seriously, what a difference so far already. If they can pass protect, expect a LOT of long plays. It will be entertaining, whatever else happens! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, it really doesn't matter; deep throws are a bit of a crap shoot given the distance involved. What matters is having a guy who can beat guys deep and haul it in with some regularity. He can CERTAINLY do that--he is friggin' fast and still in his prime. No one is saying he's the second coming of Cliff Branch or Bob Warfield. He is, however, a legit NFL deep threat in his prime who can blow past guys deep. That does a lot for an offense. His performance in 2015 is one of the reasons Arizona had the #1 offense in the NFL. PAUL Warfield, but I get your point. Perhaps you were thinking Bullet Bob Hayes? He wasn’t the fastest guy in the NFL. He was the fastest human on Earth! But he had dropsies issues too. Comes with the territory. 8 minutes ago, Jerome007 said: And people... don't forget Allen's running abilities!

Brown was on track for 1000+ yards & ~8 TDs before Lamar Jackson entered the picture, ruining his season. I think the biggest thing he did was stay healthy for the season. If that continues, I expect him to outperform his contract, though it might not completely show in the box score. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt say that. we shouldve signed some but not for that kind of money. now next year we will get out bid on any of the good ones. there were other guys like williams and tate etc or even lesser guys we couldve gotten for cheaper. instead we highly over paid for 2 average guys and have no chance at getting the pro bowl level guys who are coming next year. even brown hasnt even really had a great season basley had one abover average one, we over paid by a LONG SHOT. instead we couldve added some stars on defense, or at least give that money to Cook who is a pro bowler, not the injury prone TE we got whose never proved anything and we gave 6 mill a year...
