I figured the everybody eats gameplan was just mostly telling Josh don't force the ball to the first read, it's okay to take the fourth read if it results in positive yards. We think that we are specifically designing and calling plays so that everyone gets essentially "equal" touches throughout a game. I also thought it was kind of a montra, like, "Don't B word if you aren't getting the ball like Diggs did. Everyone is a professional, and I'm going to throw the ball to the open guy no matter who it is."

What I meant was I think there should be more plays that are designed to get the ball into the hands of one person. I don’t want to make a “get Cook in space” joke, I am dead serious. Why not more screens and short passes ? These are just extensions of the run. The Bills have athletic linemen. Instead Brady wants to run Jet Sweeps with Knox.

You know, I'm tired of hearing that win percentage stat trotted out every time anyone suggests McDermott is a mediocrity. Dick Jauron could win with Allen playing for him. 

 

 

Interesting opinion.

To be fair Jauron led teams - J.P. Losman (2006), Trent Edwards (2007-2008, 1/2 of 2009), and Ryan Fitzpatrick (starting in late 2009)

Look up kinkaids snap percentage through the first 5 games if u wanna puke.

I thought that was Brady’s biggest mistake on Sunday- throwing one pass to the RBs.  It just doesn’t make any sense vs that team

Agreed. Offense should center around Shakir and Kincaid. This “everybody eats” philosophy is not working as well as it did in the past. I feel like you put the ball in the hands of the playmakers. Also, I feel like Cook should be used more in the passing game too. These are the most dynamic skill players. So get them the ball. 

Cook didn't touch the ball enough vs. the Pats.  He should be in the passing game on a regular basis.

Kincaid lined up next to Brown. This some Mahomes/Kelce type stuff

It worked beautifully against Detroit last year. I think Ray Davis had over 100 yards receiving that game. The Bills biggest strength (obv other than Allen) are the athletic linemen, Tight Ends, and RBs. I would’ve loved to see Ty Johnson and Davis used more in the passing game. With that said, I don’t think the Bills lose if they didn’t uncharacteristically turn the ball over. As much as a change in scheme is needed, protecting the ball is the #1 priority and can’t keep happening.

You get your best player the ball any way you can. Everyone eats, but certain guys should get bigger portions than others.

I will say, right now, at this moment, Kincaid if the most reliable receiving threat we have and this is looking like the promise we saw two years ago

 

I'm not giving up hope on Keon but right now I'm feeding Kincaid

Oh yeah, we definitely lost due to the turnovers

Great vid, thanks. If anyone had any doubts about Kincaid, this dispels them. He ranks near the top of the league in many metrics for all WRs, not just TEs now.

He's great at finding an open space late in in the play and he now has real chemistry with Josh, after that was really lacking last year.

We have a TE approaching elite status, a top-5 back and a very good slot guy. Give us a size-speed outside guy and this offense could be unstoppable. But until then, Kincaid and Cook can and should be the focal points.
