I mean ... he probably won't score 9 TD's next year ... but he did this past season and co-led the league in TE TD's. And then there was that superhuman catch for a TD against NE in the wild card game. The guy was incredible.
Either really good or really, really bad. I want consistency from a TE. He's inconsistent, I'll answer @JujuFish too
Anyway, I'm done with it. He's had the biggest drops on the team since he's been here. Repeatedly.

It was the right move to hire the guy that the team's best player and unquestioned leader wanted to have hired, especially when that guy will provide continuity.
Good for Dorsey for using the Giants as leverage to get better terms (I presume).
I'm not saying that guy hasn't had an issue with drops, at times, but ... I cannot fathom how a fan of the Bills would feel anything other than good about Knox as the team's TE.
They can do better at TE. At least bring in another decent one so you don't have to rely on Knox's inconsistency.

So you look at a *single* game and try to generalize from it? Are you sure you're not trolling right now? Let's look at his previous game: 5 catches for 89 yards and 2 TDs. Or how about the previous playoff game before that, our loss last year to KC: 6 catches for 42 yards and a TD.
It was an example. Knox is overrated and disappears and drops passes. I'm not going over every game log. Here's some tweets from the Patriots game:
Inconsistent is my main argument against Knox. You're proving my point.

Based on what evidence?
His stats against the Chiefs playoffs 2022:
REC YDS AVG TD LONG TGTS
Dawson Knox 2 9 4.5 0 8 4
I'm sure I can find more, but we need more from our #1 TE. He's also had some huge drops in big games. Not gonna look that up. I lived it already.

How many TEs are better than Knox? Kelce, Kittle and?
Knox is super inconsistent. It's either a great game or he disappears. And he seems to disappear when it counts.

I mean, everybody's owed at least one mulligan. I thought Terry sucked on Day One.
He did. And hasn't stopped.

Buffalo would have beat the Bengals easily.
If you say so. They're going to the Superbowl and actually beat the Chiefs in crunch time instead of royally ***** up. I guess we'll find out next year.
-
Another problem with blowing the game against the Chiefs. We're now going to have to deal with the Bengals, who may be better than us already.

Try Dynamo Minsk in the KHL. Dead last. No one wants to play there.
You have to go all the way to Belarus to find a franchise and owner worse than ours.

Bottom line is that Bud Selig is in the hall of fame on the backs of a league that was juiced out of their minds. He knew and didn't care in the least. "Get me some ratings Big Mac and Sammy! Keep hitting balls to other planets, Barry!" Chicks dig the long ball was a marketing campaign.
The fact that Jeff Bagwell, Mike Piazza and David Ortiz are all in the Hall while the MLB career leaders in Hits, the MLB career leader in HR and the American League all time K's leader aren't is completely ridiculous.
Oh, and Bonds and Clemens never actually tested positive for banned substances.
PS: The Hall is still my favorite museum.
Dude, Piazza is not in the same category as any of those others, as far as steroid use and evidence.

Every decision was super conservative from the moment the go ahead TD was scored. The XP, the kickoff, the defense for 2 ***** plays in a row. The most conservative approach was taken in each case. McDermott and/or the coaching staff played scared and froze/choked.
Hopefully they/McDermott learn from this. Still hope both head coordinators are elsewhere next year, but I'll also be keeping an eye on McDermott because he's not a great close game coach and we kinda need that very badly. Maybe he's taken us as far as he's able?

They play the NFC central next year. The Rams game is the added 17th game vs a non conference opponent and it’s in LA because we played that game at home his year vs Washington. In 2023, we will play the extra game at home vs. an NFC South team; most likely that division champ because we will win the AFCE again in ‘22.
was referring to KC and potential openers

If or when KC wins the SuperBowl, there is a significant possibility that the Bills play at the Chiefs for the Thursday Night Opener
They also play the NFC West next year and have the Rams at home.

Question, as the receiving team, you can fair catch a kick-off, but does time run off the clock?
In addition, when you fall on a squib kick, as the receiving team, does time run off the clock?
I think McDermott thought that his D would give up less than 40 yards in 13 seconds and somehow not still allow enough time for the field goal as well. Those 2 defensive plays rivaled 3rd and 13 in SB XXV for how horrible they were.
-
I'm hoping both coordinators go elsewhere. I think we need some fresh ideas on both sides of the ball. Dorsey would be my choice for OC.
-
D blew it. Needs to be overhauled. 13 ***** seconds is all they had to hold them for and couldn't even do that.
Hughes is shot. Let him go. They're going to pay Edmunds a ton of money, which is a mistake. He was a nonfactor last night. They need a much better MLB and D Line to be able to stop teams like the chiefs.
13 seconds. Going to go down in Bills lore as another in a long line of heartbreakers.

Bad players are often bad at least partially because they're often injured. We've had a lot of bad players during this stretch.

I would bet every owner in all the leagues found ways to get their checks. This is a non- story
False, you lost the best. One other owner named in there. These are the checks for married couples making less than 150K, not business. Read the article.

So sick of these owners. Don't think for a second they won't do anything for a buck. Look at what they've done to this franchise afterall.

After what Burrow has been doing, I'd rather play the Chiefs.
Cincinnati losing yesterday was huge. If we do play them we'll be at home. They will be a tough matchup regardless.

They also finally added air conditioning!!!:

Just scanned the old Nylander thread. He was hazed and mistreated. I think that's something almost every athlete goes through. Some respond to it, some don't. Cal O'Reilly is an ***** and not a good choice as a mentor as well.
I think Chicago could have been, and was, a change of scenery where he seemed to do a bit better, but I'm not sure his game ultimately will work in the NHL without a lot of other pieces making it all work. Pittsburgh will be interesting if he gets a chance. They love their cheap reclamation projects. Just read an article somewhere about how good of a well rounded and valuable piece Evan Rodrigues has become for them.

Cal (little bro) O'Reilly ruined him.

Great idea, but I've recently learned on this very board that Dawson Knox is steady as a rock and beyond reproach. It's the playcalling/gameplan, not extreme inconsistency. I too, would like a security blanket tight end that you trust is gonna catch the ball and not have games where he's a liability.
