whatdrought Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 1 hour ago, PaattMaann said: Ive been wondering when DBs are gonna start jumping Browns routes/not giving him the cushion because the tape shows Allen cant hit the deep threat. Take their chances with getting beat deep more because they arent afraid of getting beat deep by Allen, knowing that if Brown does beat them Allen is gonna miss. Hoping they dont start employing that strategy because it just might work. It’s not just the threat of the deep speed that opens those routes though, he just plain beats them with his speed and he’s shown that he’s got crisp routes. He’s too shifty to try and play close cause he can stick a foot and be going a different direction so quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a great route runner and is shifty, but we were commenting about how he is getting huge cushions that he then sits down in the zone a lot which is leading to a lot of open holes Josh is finding him in. He is a great, legit #1 WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Brown is way faster than Diggs...dude can blow the top off a defense...I mean his nickname is Smoke after all...as in vapor trail...Allen just hasn't been able to hit the deep shot... Why do you think Brown has so much success on these comebacks and outs? Because the DB is terrified of getting beat deep and gives him a lot of cushion. FYI Brown ran a 4.3 at the combine and Diggs a 4.46... Not disagreeing with you but just for knowledge. His nickname is based on his skin tone, not speed, was nicknamed fresh out the womb. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember being there like it was yesterday...took a first date to the game and got lucky afterwards. I think you’re correct, ( without checking) believe it was Sammy Winder. Killed us with draw plays all day. Crazy how long ago that was, but the memory is still fresh. That game changed the course of the entire ‘90 season imo.

Agreed. Well for the most part. A lot of it will probably have to do with how they feel Sweeney is developing. I think he can be a very capable compliment #2 TE, but obviously isn't that yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am no expert, but it seemed like Sweeney was more noticeable in a positive way out on the field than what I have seen from Kroft. But maybe Kroft is a really good blocker?

They absolutely signed him to be the #1, but drafted Knox and Sweeney anyway, and then Kroft got hurt and Knox got an opportunity he has taken hold of. It's not that Kroft is bad, it's that he's just now getting back into it. I'm very happy with a Knox/Kroft combo in 12 personnel if Kroft is fully recovered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I expect Josh Allen to have a bad outing vs the Broncos. Vic Fangio's defensive schemes have been cited by many as some of the toughest in the NFL to prepare for and for quarterbacks to diagnose. Defenses like this are the ones that have given Allen the most trouble so far in his career. Forget Denver's poor record -- just look at the defense. It's very good. I'm not saying I think the Bills will lose, I'm just saying it will be tough sledding for Buffalo's offense. I hope I'm as wrong as can be on this one. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
