Tired of "everyone eats".

[BananaB]

Problem with the Bills everyone is as is the big rotation and our best players not getting a full snap count. Also on tape the rotation and player personnel is gonna tip teams off while studying film. 
 

Kincaid and Shakir gotta be on the field more. Only two really proven players we have as pass catchers. The others you never know what your gonna get

Edelman? Welker? Deion Branch? Troy Brown? They ALWAYS made sure to surround Brady with high end pass catchers. They also had Gronk and Hernandez. Brady’s top 2 pass catchers are first ballot HOFers. He also had Faulk, Lewis and White as pass catching backs.

Deion Branch????

 

C’mon, man.

C’mon, man. 

He was a good receiver. His last year in New England he had 998 yards. The year before that he was the Super Bowl MVP. He was then traded for a 1st & signed a big deal in Seattle. Let’s not pretend he was some scrub. 🤣🤣

I wonder how many true separation receivers Tom Brady and Bill Belichick had during their 18 year run. Other than Randy Moss my memory is going to say they had mostly average receivers. I could be wrong though.

 

I think that your take is pretty accurate.   They had Gronk as a big downfield threat  for a while after Moss, but he missed a lot of time in several seasons because of injuries.  For a significant number of seasons they had Welker and then Edelmann who were sure-handed, clutch WRs playing in the slot more than being downfield threats.  Later in the Belichick/Brady era, the Pats also had ex-Bill Chris Hogan at WR.  Most of their boundary WRs were decent but they weren't among the best WRs of their time.

Let's not pretend that Deion Branch was Justin Jefferson or DK Metcalf or any of the big name WRs that some Bills fans fantasize about.   He was traded to Seattle after his big 998 yard season, and then was traded back to NE a couple of years later.   In 2010, Branch caught passes for 930 yards between the Seahawks and Patriots.  Other than his 2 big seasons, Branch's yards per season were modest, mostly between 400 and 800 yards.   He was a decent WR, but hardly a really good one.

Who said he was Jefferson or Metcalf? That was Randy Moss (but Moss was better of course).
 

Branch had injury issues. His full season average was 63/807/5. That’s a good 11 year career. His name, and other Patriot receivers names, came up as a response to, “how many elite separation receivers did Brady and Belichick have?” Lol, the entire Patriots WR room was built with quick guys that ran precise routes. They had good NFL careers BECAUSE of their ability to get open. That’s the skill that the Pats valued most in the pass catchers outside of their superstars (Moss and Gronk). Hope this helps clear the confusion…

"Everyone eats" was just a euphemism for Josh doesn't need to force feed a whiner anymore. 

 

But it also means we need to be better with play calling and Josh needs to be better with understanding what the defense is giving him and finding the guys who are open. We've seen some mixed results with that this year imo.

The funny part is, this is what they did to Dallas with Cook.  They just ran it down their throats because they couldn't stop it. 

 

But for some reason when a receiver/TE is the "hot hand" they go away from it.

Or "some players eat, while other just play with their food!"

 

Actually, I feel like the receiving core will be better and starting to click more each coming game...

From the title of this thread, it sounds like food is back on the table so to speak as a discussion topic.

 

Thanks for asking.

 

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving in our still great country.

 

After the wife monopolized the protein cooking for the past 5 Thanksgiving and leaving the sides to my under-utilized culinary talents, it is MY turn this year.

 

I have made turkey in well over 25+ different ways in my life.

 

Boring.

 

We switched to capons 5+ years ago for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

 

The problem is the ladies of this household will eat it at Thanksgiving however the island princesses are too good to eat leftovers and I have capon to eat alone for the next week.

 

NOT this year.

 

NOT this year.

 

STOP me if this reminds you of the Ravens Home Opener this year...

 

I have 3 Cornish Hens brining in the fridge since Tuesday.

 

I am going to put them on the rotisserie I created for the Big Green Egg after stuffing them with a stuffing of Wild Rice and other ingredients (you ain't ready for that reveal).

 

They sure do look a lot like Falcons.

 

Just sayin'.

 

They are mean MF'ers...
