Desert Bills Fan Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Early on Knox had a couple short receptions. Then poof ! He is gone and Gilliam is in there…no mention of an injury. Did I miss something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They rolled the dice by saying we'll let Beasley be free and simply not pay much attention to Gabe Davis. Allen took advantage and didn't force things to guys who were bracketed. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Knox also had to stay in to help out on Brown’s side a bunch last night because the rookie was STRUGGLING. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrownBear Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Knox was wide open over the middle on the Davis 75 yard TD. He was out there, but had to stay in to help with protections a bit and KC was set to stop him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirAndrew Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I don’t really care what happens to a specific player when we score 42 points. I’m not wanting to sound abrasive, just saying everything worked well, and Knox just wasn’t part of it on the day. I worry about particular players only when the team struggles as a result. Ask me about Rosseau and Basham, then I’ll talk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HamptonBillsfan Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 He disappears from time to time, but he's taken strides. He took coverage away from Davis and is going to be a great weapon going forward. It was a great season for Knox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 One of the things I am looking forward to is the 2nd year progression of Spencer Brown at RT. He might have struggled at times this year....but he was a beast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Seemed they kept him in to block a decent amount. Knox is a pretty good blocker too… his game isn’t just making catches. We scored at will when Daboll didn’t want to inexplicably run the ball. Whatever we did with him was working. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still not convinced he's an NFL Tackle. I think the Bills could quickly solve multiple problems by draft an OT high and kicking Spencer inside. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Process Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Daboll decided it was a good idea to wait 2.75 quarters to let our superstar QB throw it more than 5 yards downfield. That's what happened. Knox played 98% of snaps 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert Bills Fan Posted January 25, 2022 Author Share Posted January 25, 2022 Thanks for the shared insight. Other than that 3rd quarter , it was a great offensive game plan. I was just looking to see if I missed Knox getting hurt / shaken up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a unit that has such heavy rotation, you wouldn’t think they’d be absolutely tapped out and gassed in the 4th Q. OL plays 100% of the snaps, yet our wave of rotations never crushed or out-hustled them. Edited January 25, 2022 by JayBaller10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if for some reason the safety covers Gabe, which they couldn't do all night, you let Josh run for the 1st down... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they seemed to want to run a lot more early on to control the clock and probably only used him on the first drive of the game but not sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skibum Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 It just seemed like the Chiefs were willing to give Davis the opportunities, not so much Diggs and Knox. It doesn't matter to me as long as Allen's throws connect to someone in a Bills uniform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
