the game was lost when Hamlin took out Benford.  

Benford was worth 6 or more points in that particular game

Like I said defense lost that game, never should have come down to fourth and five.

Assuming all are healthy:

 

Shakir

Palmer

Kincaid

Coleman

Ty Johnson

Samuel

Cook

Moore

Davis

Knox

 

I like this order the best so far, and too tired to figure it out on my own.

 

If this is the case, I think that is a very  good thing for this offense, as it means Palmer really works out, and that both Kincaid and Coleman show what they can do.  Two young stars, we are all hoping..

 

But I think if the Bills are smart James Cook is targeted much more this year, as he should have been last year.  He is dangerous as f*c* running now, but Cook in open space? Forget about it.  One big play after another, and can break any one of them for long gains--and the defenses will come to understand that.

 

So, more for Cook, and the other backs too, as then it is more likely Coleman and Kincaid ball out too, as they will be open more.

 

I hope you are wrong about Knox, another underutilized player in the passing game.  And he seems to have overcome his problem with drops.

I think the good thing about Brady and the way he does things is that this list could, and will, change week to week depending on the matchups he sees.  I think Cook is a real weapon out of the backfield for sure.  But Ty Johnson did a good job on 3rd down, Davis made some good plays, and so on.

 

Going into this off-season the main complaints were not having guys that can separate, and not having a guy that can stretch the field.  Now I don’t necessarily agree with these, but Palmer gets a lot of separation, and Moore gives them a speedier guy.  Josh has 10 guys he can throw the ball too; that’s what Brady wants and Josh did pretty good with that approach last year.

Really good analysis of what may be the case this season.  I think people are underestimating how much this offense can improve, with the young guys growing into it, the new guys adding new dimensions, and with Brady coming into his own.  And all of this after they were the best Bills offense ever last year, and scored more points than any other team in the league.

 

Pretty exciting to think about what this could become.  And now, also with the kind of defense they have not had in several years, complimenting, supporting this great offense.

 

By Halloween people may  be talking about this offense as one of the best in NFL history. And like so many of the others, as unique unto itself.
