The thing is the book is now out on him just ask Patrick Peterson after the Vikings game but that more be the offensive philosophy as a whole

That's not Davis that was on the play caller. Davis doesn't determine if he is running a skinny post in the red-zone Dorsey does.

Sorry, I'm lazy, but is there a site that tracks drops game by game?

 

I have a theory that the rise in drops coincided with Josh having to re-tool his throwing motion to minimize pain after he got hurt.  Changes in velocity disrupt timing.

 

Of course, I could just be talking out of my ass.

 

Nah I think this is definitely the issue. Josh does not make a lot of off angle throws lately. He clearly doesn't trust his arm like he normally does. Not surprising considering his injury.

[What a Tuel]

The fact that Miami (Hill, Waddle), Chiefs (Kelce, Smith-Schuster, Valdez-Scantling), Chargers (Ekeler, Mike Williams, Keenan Allen), Bucs (Mike Evans, Chris Godwin) are on there within 1 or 2 drops doesn't have anyone thinking twice about attributing this to the talent of the WRs? Yes, our guys drop the ball sometimes and need to work on it, but it isn't because they can't catch.

All these teams are high-frequency pass teams, but I'd like to see a "drops per pass" stat.  The Bears and Falcons are down near the bottom in drops, but they don't throw often.

Wtf is Isaiah doing? He has a bad game and is now being defensive.

Gabe did earlier in the season 

 

Davis is 38 of 71 = 54% catch rate. 3rd lowest in the league. According to below Davis & Diggs lead the league in dropped passes.

 

3rd link has us 2nd to GB in dropped passes. Interesting Phins are 3rd & KC is 5th.

Yeah but where’s Gabe now?

[Big Turk]

Looks like they only credited the Bills with 5 from yesterday...that's being generous...

That's not even true. Last season he caught multiple crossing routes and multiple deep outs along the boundary. Yesterday he had a 20 yard reception on a stop route that was perfectly executed. 

He's more than just a deep shot guy. 

His rookie year he was the toe drag swag champion.

No I don’t work for Isiah McKenzies agent like yourself apparently but here to make you happy

That reminds me his agent still has not paid the bill.

Maybe Allen should start throwing balls to him on the boundary just out of bounds and force him to think about his feet instead of his hands.

[Gunsgoodtime]

Need to upgrade the Wrs next year, been feeling that way most of the year, especially watching other games, other teams WRs.  Our unit outside of Diggs is poor.  Its amazing Allen has overcome it honestly

Have to agree, they need to get this fixed. This team isn’t winning a Super Bowl by increasing the workload for Singletary or Cook. They need to get back to a high powered passing offense that cranks our first downs, rarely punts and mixes in back breaking Josh Allen runs. That’s the formula that will get them a Lombardi. 

Need good recievers to accomplish that.  Bills only have 1

Crap weather people....there's your answer.

Same excuse, the weather excuse only works when it affects everyone.  Jets wr had no problem catching it early on, but I guess it was just bad weather when the Bills had the ball

[Freak-O]

Feels like Isaiah drops about as many as he catches, but that’s probably wrong.

Didn't seem to bother the Jets. White was getting killed out there, even had to leave the game twice, and still passed for 268. Meanwhile, Josh had a season low 147.

 

And 1 win.

Or helps the other team catch them like in the Rams game.

Also would like a link of all the drops too. Not every drop is created the same. 

A link of the drops?  Hint every team has variables, with all variables considered amongst 32 teams the Bills WRs are the worst. 

[Royale with Cheese]

Yeah and it's hurting us.  Need to fix this ASAP.

[JMM]

Davis is curious. He used to be the king of the tough catch. This year he really has struggled.  Mckenzie always has had poor hands.  Shakir too small sample size. Knox, better but still an issue at times. Singletary struggles. Bottom line: WR top priority next off-season, followed VERY closely by O line. Other than maybe safety I don't want to see a defensive pick until at least the 5th rd!!

[Billsfan1972]

Here's the one up to last week.
