What they did today reminds me too much of when the Bills used to win the offseason and end up in 3rd. With what they have and add on defense that team will be scary good. Not sure the plan on offense but I'm sure they are not done 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd still pick them for 3rd place by the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that defense makes them a player in the division especially with Belichick coaching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always said that BB can coach almost any roster in the league to somewhere around .500 at worst. I'll be more worried if they make a move at QB. Their ceiling is only so high w/ Cam, imo. But yeah - the AFCE will be tough next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The default mode here (me too) is to throw shade on any Pats move. I try to resist the impulse and think carefully. Seems like Bourne is a hard worker and a good locker room guy. For his production they overpaid but his catch % is high and he seems to be getting better. I assume that like most contracts this year, they'll backload it so he doesn't cost too much this year, and also allowing him to be cut before the end if he doesn't work out. Seems like a decent get to me, not terrific or anything. They've improved the team, I think. An awful lot will depend on their QB, whoever that may be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as Cam is the QB, it doesn't matter who the slot guy is. Newton can't hit the broad side of a barn on short passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight Hucklebuck Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Kendrick Bourne is another slow WR for the Patriots, 4.68 (40-yard dash), but he is experienced enough underneath. And Agholor is fast enough to be a #3 WR. The Patriots can field a low-end passing attack now, instead of the Bottom 3 unit they fielded last year.

billsfan89 Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Pats will be a lot tougher but in the end unless they get a QB they are capped at 10-11 wins and unable to win more than one playoff game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Brown Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 6 hours ago, 78thealltimegreat said: We pretty much have everyone back from a 15-4 team and the Dolphins lost literally no one from an 11 win team it’s them that has to play catch up with the rest of the division now They lost Fitz which was QB for half their wins (I'm including the Raiders game). They also got to play the Bengals and Jaguars while we played the Steelers and Titans. Winning games with def and ST TD's wasn't sustainable down the stretch. They're not close to us talent wise right now but if Watson goes there it's a game changer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenorthremembers Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 I am not sure I understand the interest here. Decent #2 wideout, but he isnt exactly a burner, doesnt have reliable hands, and gives you nothing in terms of punt or kick return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drive the price up a bit for a division rival for a player that isn’t great at anything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bills run a lot of 4 WR sets, we we have no one after diggs davis and beas right now. We need to add multiple WRs, Bourne would not have been our #2 WR. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabreality Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 1 minute ago, Giuseppe Tognarelli said: Yes, it's concerning Why is kicking the tires concerning? Wouldnt be a an awful 3/4 option to push Davis and provide depth. I'm sure Beane is looking at a lot of these types, of course he's not going to give them the kind of deal Pats gave Bourne, but you gotta be in the market to see who hangs around.
