Dalton Kincaid.......seems to be taking that "step up" that we have all been wanting to see.

[Special K]

I'm really liking what I've seen from Kincaid so far this season. He was very close to having a 3 TD game last night. His TD was a great catch, and he showed great body control and balance not only to make the catch but to keep his footing into the endzone.

 

The 2nd would be TD was just a great play by the Miami defender to get his hand in there and knock it away.....the 3rd would be TD was again the Safety from Miami turning himself into a missile to keep Kincaid out of the endzone, but down to the 1 yard line.

 

I also feel that his blocking has gotten a lot better.....he made a great block on the Elijah Moore TD last week, and a great block on the Shakir TD this week. I know he had a holding penalty this week, but that was on a weird change of direction play.

 

I hope he keeps stacking good games and turns into the top-tier TE threat that I believe he can be.

 

Go Bills!!

His blocking intensity is very noticeable

that hold he got called for was super weak. I didn’t think it was a hold.

[uninja]

I know we kinda like to crap on Knox here but between Kincaid, Knox, Hawes and Gilliam we might have one of the best TE rooms in the league. What I've witnessed from Kincaid so far this season has been really encouraging but honestly the biggest surprise (to me at least) has been Hawes.

 

The fact that all 3 of them (Knox, Kincaid, Hawes) seem to be legit receiving threats while also being great blockers just opens up the offense in so many ways and makes it really tough to defend.

Yeah, that was exceptionally weak

[UConn James]

The holding call was complete 🐂💩.

[Dillenger4]

Kincaid is awesome. He was injured last year so we are now seeing the true Kincaid. Our TE room is a force and we will only get better as we grow.

But I thought he got away with a hold on the Shakir TD.  

[stlbills13]

I still don't believe he'll ever be a star or worth the 1st round pick we spent on him but it's clear he's a talented player who was banged up almost all year last year. I see a path to where he is a very very good tight end in the NFL. He also knows he's playing for that 5th year option and/or an extension eventually.

[billsfan89]

I would have taken a return to his rookie year form but he's looked a notch above that thus far. Early returns on him are good. The Bills are going to need him and Keon to take a step up. We know Shakir is a very good slot WR and Palmer a competent but not spectacular outside WR. Shavers/Moore/Samuel (when he gets back) are nice secondary pieces, Knox and Hawes are also more supplemental weapons as are the RB's. But if this offense wants to be consistently elite against better defenses they need Kincaid to pick apart zones consistently over the middle and Keon to be a factor on the outside. 

[elroy16]

The way he smoothly snatched the ball on the TD and the quick swing pass was refreshing to see. Like others have said, his improved blocking has really allowed the 13 personnel package to flourish. 

 

It's great to see after how last year went. It was super frustrating for us, I can only imagine how it was for him.

[TheBrownBear]

I was never down on him. The guy played hurt last year and it showed. I expected him to break out this season and took him earlier than projected in my FF league.  So far it is paying dividends!

[Simon]

Checking up on his route on the first TD was exactly the kind of progression we need to see from him. That recognition will start putting him on the same page as Allen if he keeps it up. Last year he wouldn't have slowed a beat and would have run himself right into coverage. This year he ends up with the ball in the endzone.

Granted he was probably a half step slow to recognize and react to it, which put Allen's throw off a bit because he probably thought Kincaid wasn't going to check it, but slow or not, he did it. It wasn't perfect, but we're not looking for perfect yet; we're just looking for better. And that is happening.

That was Minkah Fitzpatrick, a legit killer that the Phish gave up JRamsey and Jonnu Smith for.

This is going to pay off in spades if Brady plays this right.

It wasn't a hold and the guy he supposedly held made the play, 5 yards behind Kincaid

[BuffaloBillyG]

It shouldn't come as a shock to anyone. He's healthy. It makes a difference. People here wanted to trade him for a 5th rounder last off season because he was playing injured. 

[Dr. K]

I was impressed by the number of different two- and three-TE plays Brady dialed up, both passing and run blocking. It looked to me that it could cause defenses a lot of problems.

Forget the long ball, Tight End is the new sexy! 

[Brandon]

I never thought there was anything wrong with him last year that couldn't be explained by the knee injury.
