akcash Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Knox has on bad drop this year. Other than that his only flaw has been his availability. I'm very excited to see his second half of the year. Dude just needs to get on the field. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of 1st down at the Miami 35 one play into the 2nd drive, Buffalo ended up deep in their own territory. Yes, that changes things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 I am very glad Knox has been cleared from the protocol and is Good to Go! Hopefully his calf is all healed as well. That said, hopefully he will need to EARN his snaps back from Baby Beluga (aka Tyler Kroft). Kroft has not contributed big numbers, but he has come through in critical situations. He's rocking a 74% completion %, less than 10% drops. Made a difficult diving-to-ground 11 yd catch against the Pats while Josh was under pressure for a first down He was 4 for 4 for 64 yds vs the Jets, 3 for 1st downs and if only the "turf monster" hadn't gobbled him could have had more Now that I'm watching all-22 for those Beluga Whale sightings, Kroft can be seen out there quietly Doing His Job, whatever it is he's asked to do. Knox is by far the higher ceiling guy - the superior athlete, tougher. He's less consistent on his blocks, and so far he's rocking a Gawdawful 50% catch % and 17% drops. We need a TE who can do what he's asked to do consistently, not an on-again, off-again Blinking Strobe Light. If we can find the switch that sets him to "ON" instead of "Strobe", go with Knox. 12 minutes ago, akcash said: Knox has on bad drop this year.

Plus two targets over his head that hit his hands and he could have brought in, but didn't (I don't think those were scored as drops). 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Having a nice physical runner like him might be useful against these 6 DB looks they’ve been getting. I could even see giving him handoffs like patsies used the killer... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went on to win the game, because Miami. But it was closer than it should have been. And against a good team like Tennessee or the Seahawks, Yeah. Turnovers swing the game.

Knox on blocks to my eye is like he is on receptions: he might lay the lumber, or he might just whiff. Neither of them excel as blockers, they just do well enough to keep Lee Smith on the bench.

Here's the thing though: If asked to list the best skill players on the Bills offense, how do you rank these guys? Diggs Brown Beasley Singletary Moss Davis McKensie Kroft Knox If you're running 2 TEs, it means someone else is seated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the went 22, I’d expect subs to match it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
