IgotBILLStopay Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Defense is in shambles with injuries etc. Dodson, Norman, Wallace out; Milano, White questionable, Edmunds banged up, Murphy healthy inactive. So it will be up to the offense to win this. While Jets’ defense focuses on Diggs and Beasley, Duke and Davis will score TDs tomorrow. Before the beginning of the season, I caught flak for arguing that Duke can play TE in a pinch. Let us see if that flak is deserved. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah John Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 With only Kroft at TE, the running game is not likely to be effective, again. It will be up to the passing game to win. The offense really misses John Brown. What's much worse, though, is that Josh Allen seems to have forgotten all the good things he learned in the offseason about footwork. The past two games, he's been jumpy, off-balance, throwing off the wrong foot, and not even pointing his feet in the right direction. If he can fix his footwork issues, I think the Bills will be fine. If not, this season could crash and burn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IgotBILLStopay Posted October 24, 2020 Author Share Posted October 24, 2020 2 minutes ago, High Football IQ said: Assuming he can get at least 10-15 snaps I wouldn't be surprised to see him finish with a decent stat line, something like 5 catches, 70 yards, 1 TD. My biggest concern though is that Daboll will keep force feeding useless players like Roberts and McKenzie ahead of him so we see more stupid turnovers, penalties and reverse double motion crap for 10 yard losses. If we did not have roster limits, this statement would be true since there is no doubt he is better than Roberts and McKenzie. Problem is Duke cannot displace Diggs, Brown, Beasley and Davis and cannot play ST like Roberts and McKenzie (though he did play 18 snaps in 2019). Hopefully if he shows some TE skills he can get some PT and prove himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Hammersticks Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I don’t think he’ll get many snaps. Even with Brown out, he’s still behind Diggs, Beasley, Davis and McKenzie. I say 3 catches for 27 yards. I will say, however, that he presents an interesting matchup in the red zone. Could surprise and snag a TD. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 What does this mean for Gabriel Davis? I was considering putting a little fun money on a Gabe Davis prop bet of 1 rec TD and 100+ receiving yards at +1400 odds. Was thinking we try to get someone other than Diggs and Beasley involved more in the passing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet both for fun. the 2+ TD's is actually +1700 too. Would be a bummer if he had 2 TD's but only 80 yards and I won nothing because I didn't bet the second one. I've been having a poor year overall betting lines so I feel like playing a handful of player prop bets just for fun. They have Allen at 3+ TD's and 400+ yards for +1700 but that's way too many yards. Maybe if it goes down to 350 I might bet it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 1 hour ago, Best Williams Available said: He’s big for a WR but has he even shown an ability to block? A couple of our regulars here had commented that his blocking was overall decent when he was active last year. He missed a couple blocks against the Jets week 17 and a couple in the Texans game, as I recall. And then of course with the CFL running start, there was this: https://www.cfl.ca/2017/10/22/week-19-duke-williams-block/ I doubt he'll be on the field that much, but I hope he makes the best of his opportunity. It's a big deal for him financially: I get lost in the 2020 PS rules and the rules about credited and accrued seasons, but I think Duke is a lower-salary PS player earning $8,400/week. I think he has 1 credited season (>3 games = credited season, he had 4). 1 week salary at NFL vet minimum is ~$42,000. It's basically a $33,000 raise, just to dress for the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
