Point being, when the other team has an actual QB, their TE usually has a good day. And once when they didn't have a good QB.
Now, I'm not really scared Knox is going to go off or something. But he will probably have a decent day for himself, because BUF has a real live top-3 QB throwing the ball to him.
Kittle and Bowers are elite.
Otton looks like he might be in that next tier, which Pitts is in as well. Likely would probably be at least in that tier if Andrews weren't in front of him.
Gesicki has had some monster games this year.
Knox isn't better than a single guy you just mentioned, but ok. Sure, he could have a "decent" game.
But why do you keep ignoring the original point? Nothing you've said or pointed to changes the fact that he isn't better than Kincaid, and he doesn't kill us every year. [Reply]

When did I say Knox was better than Kincaid or that "he kills us every year"? Because I know I didn't say either of those things. All I said was he probably would have a decent day "for himself," as in in terms of his average performance, that's it.

Don't put words in my mouth.
No dipshit, I said it, and you responded as if there was disagreement with what I said.

I made 2 points, and you responded with "meh" as if you disagreed. Do you get it yet? [Reply]

DO you get that I never said either that Knox was better than Kincaid or that he 'tore us up every year'? That all I said was he was probably going to have a good day?
Don't get pissy with me because someone else pushed your buttons, bub. Go have a fit at them. [Reply]

Dude, you literally posted this:

Immediately after I posted this:

Which is why I responded with this:

And the chances of him having anything more than a "decent" game are pretty slim, more or less a career day. We haven't even given up 100 yards to a TE since week 1 when we were trotting the worst version of Bolton out there that we've ever seen.
You've been missing my point the entire time. I wasn't putting words in your mouth, but trying to find out where you disagreed with my original point because you certainly acted like there was disagreement somewhere. [Reply]
And? I didn't mention Kincaid in my post. And I don't even remember what you're talking about with Sorensen. I just ignored that part.
Dude, I made a very short posts with 2 clear points and you expressed at least some level of disagreement with it immediately after. At the very least, not full agreement.
So you explain to me where that was, because that's exactly the point I'm trying to make now.
Where in my post did I say Knox wouldn't have a decent game? Or that we don't struggle vs. TEs? [Reply]

Okay, I think i get it now.
Look, I wasn't disagreeing with you; I was more just commenting/carrying on the conversation, that's all. I feel like TEs do better against us when they have an actual QB throwing to them, and BUF does. That was basically my point. [Reply]
I think maybe I'm misusing the word "meh." I always thought it was like shrugging. But I'm starting to get the feeling that isn't what it means to everyone else. [Reply]

It depends on context. In this context, I thought at the very least you were disagreeing with some part of my response to that post about Knox. My fault. [Reply]

No worries. I was over here just kind of confused.:-)
Look, I just think Knox plus Josh will be able to make some hay vs. our defense, because every damned TE seems to be able to. How much, I don't really know. I would rather it not be a great day for Knox. 'Good' I feel like could probably happen, but I think we can live with that. Now, if you want, I can be Devil's Advocate and w an fight about, well, whatever you want concerning TEs. I'm bored and annoyed about being dumb enough to watch the Tyson fight anyway.
But before that, what's the other meaning of 'meh,' anyway? [Reply]
