ILBillsfan Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Last week they went w Foster . I feel like McKenzie adds a bit more than Foster with the use in the run game as well. They tried to use Williams last week and he was not able to threaten the edge like McKenzie brings. Im Hoping McKenzie is back in and Foster is on the inactive list 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronxbomber21 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I think there gonna go with Foster since the Skins are kinda slow in the secondary with a ageing Norman & a Collins back there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UConn James Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Foster didn’t impress with his ball tracking on the long throw last week. That would’ve been huge. He overran the ball when, if he were tracking, he stops short and hauls it in. Rusted on the bench. McKenzie at least shows something. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie's Dead Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 McKittrick >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Foster. All McKittrick does is make plays. Foster didn't do ***** last week with his chance. McD is supposed to be about playing those who produce, so no way McKittrick sits again. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing McKenzie is the right call. He's made big plays and brings misdirection to our offense. Neither are great but right now McK is the better contributor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think McKenzie attacks the edges harder on offense than Roberts and is a more viable receiving option than Roberts. McKenzie also offers more than Foster in the receiving game as well. This year not sure what the deal is with Foster but he didn't even make an attempt for that ball that landed a bit behind due too the wind knocking it down.

Doc Brown Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 (edited) Ball tracking was a problem last year with Foster on the deep ball as well. The miss at New England comes to mind. It's whoever Allen is more comfortable with. Foster is about five or so inches taller than McKenzie so you have to factor that in.

CSBill Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 At this point, McKenzie is more productive than Foster. He was missed last week as it seemed the Bills stupidly took what has been an effective aspect of their game and shelved it. Moreover, then they hardly used Foster (1 target). Answer: McKenzie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JESSEFEFFER Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Based on what it would mean to the offense to establish viable deep threats to the passing game I'll go with Foster.

I got the decision to activate Duke and make him a big part of the gameplan against Tennessee. I said it on here the morning of the game - their corners are really good sticky guys who are hard to separate from but who have a vulnerability against size and strength. Since then I know he had the nice catch against Miami but Duke's struggles separating have shown up on tape. Particularly last week when if I said he had clear separation from the corner twice all game that would be a stretch. The Redskins are going to play a lot of zone on the back end, I think let's get our speed guys on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I can’t remember the last time Foster ran a route other than a fly. It’s weird. If they activate him, I’d like to see him used more over the middle and on crosses like McK, at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jpsredemption Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Not sure why it has to be One or the other. McKenzie adds value weekly so they are trying to get too cute by deactivating these guys. Horrible decision last wk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olympus Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Personally, I think that McKenzie is much more valuable to our offense. Like I assume most other bills fans do, I had much higher expectations for Foster after seeing his climb in our offense last year. But if you go back to preseason, McKenzie has made some really impressive catches both over the top and contested, and I think he's a bigger threat/better catcher down the field than most give him credit for. With that in my mind, its hard to imagine the value of Foster when he's not tracking the football. Now I'll admit, Fosters lack of production could be in large part because of Josh's lack of ability to throw the deep ball thus far this year, but regardless of the reason, if Foster isn't getting the deep ball receptions that he thrives on, what is he providing us that McKenzie is not? I just feel like Isiah gives us more options when he's on the field, which should be the goal of every offensive player imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
