Josh Allen led Bills dominate Broncos, will host Baltimore.
1 month ago

Josh Allen and the Bills dominate the Denver Broncos at home.

MVP hopeful Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen held serve at home against the Denver Broncos on Sunday, dominating in total yards, time of possession and particularly rush yards.  The Broncos jumped out to an early lead with a 43 yard strike from Bo Nix to fellow rookie Troy Franklin, but that was the highlight of the day for the Broncos, as the Bills proceeded to utilize the ground game and clock control to take control of the game.

 

Bills running back James Cook set the tone in the first half, running for 78 yards and and a score.  The game got broken open on a 4th and 1 deep in Broncos territory up 13-7 in the 3rd.  Josh Allen made an MVP caliber play, keeping the play alive and finding running back Ty Johnson in the back of the end zone to put the Bills up 19-7.  They would complete the 2pt conversion with a throw to Keon Coleman to make it 21-7.  Allen later found wide receiver Curtis Samuel on a crossing pattern for a 55 yard score that made it 28-7.

 

Allen finished the game 20/26 for 272 yards and 2 scores, adding 8 carries for 46 yards on the ground.  The Bills controlled the clock with 41:43 time of possession and 210 yards rushing on 44 attempts, nearly outgaining the Broncos total yardage (226 tot yards) with just their ground game.  The Bills will host Baltimore in a battle of MVP leading candidates next week. It will be a rematch from week 4, where the Ravens defeated the Bills 35-10 in Baltimore.

Keon Coleman Has Risen Precipitously on UnderDog
6 months ago

The Bills rookie wide receiver has risen up significantly on UnderDog from the Pre-NFL draft process to now.

Bills rookie wide receiver Keon Coleman has risen up draft boards significantly since the Pre-NFL Draft to today. Of note, Keon Coleman has moved up 60.9 spots from round 12 on UnderDog to round 7.

 

There is largely a bearish sentiment on Keon Coleman due to his inability to create separation ala Stefon Diggs. Psychologically, there is a difficulty reconciling Keon Coleman not being Stefon Diggs while having the issue of not offering the agility in route running his predecessor provided. 

 

Josh Allen’s career took off once he had Stefon Diggs in town. The concern isn’t whether or not Josh Allen can thrive, rather if Keon Coleman can garner enough attention in the Bills offense to draw significant enough target share to warrant being selected in round 7. Tight end Dalton Kincaid goes in round 5 and is being hyped as the focal point in the Bills offense in the same vein as Travis Kelce is used on the Chiefs. 

 

With the concern of Dalton Kincaid being the alpha target hog in the Bills offense, Coleman also has to deal with Curtis Samuel having an edge in experience having worked with offensive coordinator Joe Brady prior. Add in the Bills expected proclivity to run the ball more with James Cook and Josh Allen calling his own number, keeping a level headed approach when selecting Keon Coleman in drafts will prove wise. Incorporate a low 4-8% requisite exposure or fade all together, but don’t get caught with heavy bags on the Bills rookie wideout.

Bills' Joe Brady Calls Buffalo's Offense "Josh Allen's," Says "Everyone is Going to Eat"
8 months ago

Brady professed faith in both his franchise signal-caller and the cast of weapons around him.

On Tuesday morning, Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady spoke on the franchise’s offseason of transition. And while there was an abundance of changes in Orchard Park this spring, Brady made two telling statements that should help ease any lingering concerns about the offense heading into the 2024 season. The Bills’ second-year OC began by stating, “At the end of the day, this is Josh Allen’s offense,” before adding, “In this offense, everyone is going to eat.”

 

While perhaps Brady’s words don’t bode as much of a surprise, his remarks only further cement Josh Allen’s ceiling as the overall QB1 in fantasy football. Although his outlook on the offense might limit the ceiling of Allen’s pass-catchers, several players on Buffalo’s roster merit serious consideration in all fantasy leagues — namely running back James Cook, wide receiver Khalil Shakir, rookie wideout Keon Coleman, and tight end Dalton Kincaid. That said, expect Curtis Samuel, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Dawson Knox, and Mack Hollins to steal some targets from Buffalo’s top line of pass catchers in 2024.

Will Josh Allen Remain be a Top Quarterback After Diggs Trade?
10 months ago

The Buffalo Bills traded All-Pro wide receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans for a 2025 second-round draft pick.

The aftershock of Stefon Diggs being traded to the Texans will have a ripple effect on both teams, but let’s focus on his former quarterback Josh Allen. With Diggs’s departure, there are now 160 targets up for grabs. Who will Allen turn to after losing his WR1?

 

Initially, the thought is the Bills will aim to add a weapon or two in the NFL Draft later this month to help their All-World quarterback. Allen will lose a little shine as being the first quarterback off the board in fantasy drafts. Regardless he will still be in the running to be one of the top scorers at his position.

 

The main benefactor after the trade has to be Dalton Kincaid. The rookie tight end rallied later in the season after a slow start and battling an injury to finish with 73 receptions for 673 yards and two touchdowns. One wide receiver everyone should try and add in dynasty leagues is the newly acquired Curtis Samuel who can line up all over the offense. Khalil Shakir will be the WR1 heading into training camp for the time being. As for Allen, he will be in for another stellar season in 2024. Should the Bills fail to draft solid receiving options in the draft don’t worry, because that means Allen will be making more plays on the ground than ever before.

James Cooks Set For "Large Portion" of Backfield
1 year ago

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen believes that RB James Cook is “going to take a large portion of the carries and in the pass game, he’s going to be kind of a dual threat guy for us”.

The Buffalo Bills enter 2023 with 265 vacated opportunities in their backfield following Nyheim Hines season-ending injury and the departures of Devin Singletary, Zack Moss, and Duke Johnson. Josh Allen has given his stamp of approval for James Cook to take the bulk of the reps. The 2nd-Round sophomore back out of Georgia has dominated as a receiver and a runner throughout the offseason but has struggled mightily in pass protection.

 

Buffalo signed former Patriots back Damien Harris to a 1-year deal just above the veteran minimum and signed Latavius Murray to the vet min to compete for the grinder-back touches between the tackles and in short-yardage situations. Expect to see plenty of James Cook between-the-20s and when Josh Allen decides to check it down.

 

What prevents Cook from becoming anything more than an RB2 is his 199lb frame. The 216lb Damien Harris and the 223lb Latavius Murray will be the ones getting the work inside the 5-yard line.
