The only time Lamar has seen good defenses he's been stymied. Imagine what they did to Allen, but without the all-world helping bail Allen out. Baltimores defense is one of the most underperforming units in the NFL right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mannc Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) Not a huge believer in Goff, but I have to say he looked great on those last few drives. He delivers the ball quickly, on-target and without fear. And Russell Wilson is a great touch passer. As good as anyone I’ve seen. really fun to watch these guys tonight Edited October 4, 2019 by mannc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 8 hours ago, Joe in Winslow said: It's gonna be entertaining to watch @GunnerBill do somersaults to explain this away. Not at all. I'd have been perfectly happy for them to take DK on day 2. Go back to the draft threads - it is all there. I did not, under any circumstances, want to spend a top 10 pick on him because it would have been an almighty reach. He has value, he has blazing speed and runs long routes fine. All the reasons he was not a first round pick were on display last night too. Inability to separate in short spaces and questionable hands (if Zay Jones had failed to come up with the 2 point conversion effort then this board would have exploded - and rightly so). So far DK Metcalf is exactly who I thought he would be. He is an effective but one dimensional wide receiver. That dimension can be electrifying and game changing. He is a really good number 2 option. There were people here banging the table to draft him at #9 arguing he was a #1 receiver in the making. Those were the people I took issue with. He is a better version of Robert Foster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They excited everyone getting to 2-0 by beating up on Miami and squeaking by Arizona at home, but they are likely an 8-8 type of team.

Where were all his supporters when he had all of 1 catch on 4 targets for 6 yards against the Cardinals? He still has questionable hands. He has similar production to Brown, a late 1st rd pick, thus far. You could argue they were both 2nd round picks. Certainly not top 10 picks.

The comment is on DK, not Oliver but carry on and when Oliver starts getting sacks, he will, you can change the goal post again! I see you are ignoring his game against the Cardinals... the Bills really could have used that last week against the Pats** huh? 1 catch for 6 yards.

Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 4, 2019 Author Share Posted October 4, 2019 What I learned from this game: 1) DangerRuss still is 2) When asked about his D, Pete Carroll said "what D?" 3) Goff and the Rams are All That - until they aren't. Their "clutch" gene needs to up its expression Who was it here who, when Ken Norton was announced as the new DC of Seattle, said "this is how you waste Russ Wilson's best years?" Man, that tackling.

zow2 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 I heard some ridiculous stat, Russell Wilson’s last 19 games... he has 44 TDs and 4 ints. That’s a QB. That’s a man who knows how to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real issue was trading up for a projected guard in round 2 when Metcalf, Brown, McLaurin et al were available. We’ll get to see AJ Brown up close this weekend. I had the exact same grade on AJ Brown and Cody Ford. I'd have been fine with picking AJ Brown there, I'd have even been fine with Metcalf there even if he wasn't the top ranked player on my board. I repeat again that I had no issue with anyone who wanted to pick Metcalf in round 2. My issue is purely with anyone who wanted top spend a top 10 pick on him. I said before the draft he was touch and go to be taken in round one when the consensus was he was a definite first rounder. I didn't share the shock and amazement that he slipped to where he did. I can see the reasoning. But I would not have been against the Bills taking him or AJ at their pick. I think AJ is more complete but less explosive (I see Robert Woods to some extent) and Metcalf is explosive but has some holes. There wasn't a true #1 WR in the class so it was always pick your poison. I think Metcalf landed in a perfect spot in Seattle because they don't ask their receivers to run a really complex or complicated route tree.
