Yes, Knox is a frustrating player that makes spectacular grabs but also has many lapses and is not a consistent threat and has poor metrics. It was a great catch and play. He now has 148 yards this season. Looking forward to the $13MM/YR guy to get his first 50 yard game this year. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIP However, he has not lived up to the new contract. I don't think he is an elite tight end, despite us giving him elite TE $ He must be on your fantasy team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Film is showing that Dawson Knox is being used way more as a blocker this year. His lack of production is not due to poor play, injuries or mental issues involving his brother. At some point, defenses are likely to adjust to what the Bills are doing. That is when Ken Dorsey can switch things up, and start using the Tight End more in the passing game. It's great to have something we can pivot to. Exactly! The O scheme is like a developing story or a script, that plays out game to game. In order for the last part to work, all the previous parts have to be played out. You can’t break tendencies until after you develop them. For instance, in ‘20 Beas/Davis combo route was unstoppable, but by the playoffs, Beas was worn out and it wasn’t available when we needed it. In ‘21, they held that package until the playoffs, only breaking it out when they really needed a drive. (Whenever a drive started with a Beas catch, we always scored). In previous drought years, we only had MAYBE 1 good package. At times, we’d start out fast but always fade down the stretch as Ds figured us out and we had no talent/packages to pivot to. Thanks for bringing that point up! GO BILLS! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice way to answer the question what you're talking about Your post was Oct 8 so you must be talking about the Ravens game. There was 1 interception off a ball tipped at the LOS. Still doesn't explain what you're talking about with "Just last week he (Knox) pulled him arms back and gave the defense an INT instead of just catching the ball" as that's nowhere near what happened.

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 13 minutes ago, Bandito said: 15 rec 148 yards 1 TD Thus far this season. He is a fine player but per his contract he is about to be paid like a top flight TE. He is not that player. We over paid Perhaps - but by how much? Jonnu Smith makes 12.5 AAV, same with Hunter Henry. Evan Engram got 9M AAV. Will Dissly got 8M AAV. Gesicki and Schulz are both UFAs after this year and both probably are in that same realm. Statistically he doesn't jump off the paper this year - a couple of leg injuries probably don't help there. Needs to get more involved in the red zone, and i think playcalling will trend in that direction over the course of the season. Target share wise - Running back targets are up from 15.4% to 22.1% this year. TE targets are at 12.8% vs 13.3% a year ago. Diggs target share is up this year as well from 26.3 to 27.7% (Continuing on the same rate of about 39 PAs per game, Diggs is on pace for 183 targets which approaches Kupp territory). My thoughts? It's early in the season, and largely a fluid situation. We're using the backs more because teams are letting us do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your previous post "detailing his route run metrics" says this: "He's continually poor in yards per route run (32nd this year, 22nd last year, 31st year prior)" Since that's not a metric available on NFL.com or pro-football-reference, perhaps you could explain what it means and why you think it's important when someone asks "what metrics are poor?" What does that even mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 100% what happened, even the commentators discussed it afterwards analyzing the play discussing he thought Diggs was there and let it go. Here's the pick and Knox pulling back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 (edited) Knox is a great young player and he'll get his catches this season. Not worried at all. Edited October 26, 2022 by TheFunPolice 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 On 10/8/2022 at 9:06 PM, ArtVandalay said: It's his fault, his whole career he's made spectacular grabs but can't make routine plays. He's run the 8th most routes of any TE in the league. Last year he ran the 8th most routes of any TE. He gets plenty of opportunity in the passing game. He's continually poor in yards per route run (32nd this year, 22nd last year, 31st year prior)... unless we are to say Josh is to blame? Just last week he pulled him arms back and gave the defense an INT instead of just catching the ball. I like Knox, i do, but he is a frustrating player. It's a long year lots of football to be played, but blows my mind how sensitive people are to any criticism of a guy that hasn't produced and recently signed a monster contract.
