Nobody is aware of if the Buffalo Payments’ offense will likely be higher or worse this yr, having traded receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans.
Whereas the Payments don’t have one singular weapon as dynamic as Diggs, they do have a stable steady of receivers, led by first-round rookie Keon Coleman, and two succesful tight ends to enrich one of many prime run video games within the NFL.
For that cause, ESPN’s Mina Kimes believes Buffalo may very well be a top-five offense once more this season, and she or he stated as a lot throughout Thursday’s episode of “First Take.”
“We noticed within the second half of the season final yr when [Diggs] position was diminished after Joe Brady took over because the offensive coordinator, the offense didn’t actually lose a beat,” Kimes stated. “…I feel that this offense might need some ups and downs within the first a part of the season as everyone form of feels one another out and also you’ve bought that rookie receiver, however by the second half of the season, I feel they’ll be pretty much as good as any offense within the NFL, which is what they’ve been the final three years — a top-three offense by any metric.”
Regardless of firing offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey midseason and changing him with Brady, the Payments nonetheless completed with the No. 4-ranked offense and the eighth-best passing offense — and that was with Diggs being a non-factor, having not one 100-yard sport in any of his closing 13 contests, together with the playoffs.
