Just looking at his pre-draft tape I was pretty sure he did not have the foot speed and agility to play tackle. But given his nasty and size I thought he might develop into a good guard and therefore not a bust. Turns out, perhaps not surprisingly, that some of the same things that compromise his ability in pass pro from the tackle position also affect his effectiveness in pass pro from the guard position. Back to the drawing board. I hope that they can still retool him as a guard.

Chiefs defence is soft. They are physically overmatched by Goedert. If Knox has taken a step he could do well against them.

Whole left side of their D at all 3 levels has been awful.

voice is annoying so mute

I do realize that its not the same defence and positional responsibility, but Devin White is being criticized by some and excoriated by others in TB because although everyone acknowledges that he is pretty much "doing his job" the "impact" plays have been noticeably lacking. I guess when a LB is taken top 5 something more is expected than basic fare. I wonder if Kueckly playing the same position as Tremaine in the same defence with a stud OLB next to him was as polarizing a figure in Carolina. Somehow I don't remember any of that.

My guess is low. Don't recall him doing much to pressure the QB either off the edge or up the middle.

I look at Tremaine and I see a linebacker specimen made in heaven for McD's D. A guy that big and tall, with that wing span, that fast, that agile etc...To me his physical ability allows him to play at a decent level and sometimes even well. Overall though to me he has underperformed expectations given his rare athleticism and going mid-first round. Sure he gets lots of tackles but not only does that come with the turf but he doesn't strike me as an especially sure tackler either. He's ok but I don't see him as great in coverage. And for a guy who should be a terror when blitzing I don't recall much in the way of production. Other posters see it quite differently. I'll be interested to see what the Bills do re an extension.

No guarantees, but the Bills do have the wherewithal to be the best team in the AFC barring injuries.

Wilson is talented (even though he looks like an adolescent) but he's a rook playing the most demanding position in all of professional sports. He doesn't have much of a run game and his o-line has been very bad, that big LT has looked terrible (maybe not all his fault). Jets are sure to stunt his growth but he will do well after he's traded to a better organization for a fifth rounder.

Obviously as a Bills fan I too keep waiting for the light to come on. I hope I'm wrong but its looking more and more like what was flagged during the draft is a problem: all the physical ability in the world but no instincts, none, nulla, niente. He's adequate but he went middle of the first because of his potential, which really has not materialized. Milano was a fifth round pick and is a playmaker. Can you find/develop instincts for the game and positon? Can you improve your accuracy passing the football? I was always of the view that Allen would improve on his accuracy. The reason was that there was plenty of tape showing Allen making all kinds of throws with pinpoint accuracy. Consistency of his throwing mechanics and discipline is all that was required. In terms of what I've seen of his play, it doesn't look to me that Edmunds has anywhere near the same profile. He's a great kid and athlete and I still hope (wish) for a better outcome. If that happens I will be happy to accept whatever criticisms his supporters may have for the doubters.

More like couldn't do it.

Seems out of place on a football field a lot. Looks like a big woman out there.

The future of football is Allen vs Herbert. Monster QBs.

Bosa good

Yeah I had a hard time getting my mind around that. Its like he is a completely different player when it comes to that.

I agree with Moon. Allen would also be my choice. But don't sleep on Herbert. IMO he too has a chance to be great.

Yeah I did not express myself very well. I was looking for something, perhaps scheme wise, that could help explain Bills dominance of Miami. Starting point was my belief that Miami is a pretty good team (though still building)- they won 10 games last year, came second in the Division, all with mediocre QB play. In making a general comparison of the teams I thought that QBs should be excluded since Allen has been so much better but of course that makes no sense because Allen is in large part the reason why Miami can't beat Buffalo. So it would have been better to ask what enables Allen to so completely own Miami, a team with a good defence. Why does he have more success against them than he does against other teams. He beat them up routinely before his breakout last year so its nothing new and has nothing to do with the improvement of his play. Usually when a team or athlete owns another there is a reason for it.

He's not injured but the teenager the Jets have under center took a worse beating yesterday. Their giant left tackle was absolutely awful. Whole thing was quite comical actually.

Talent wise, excluding Allen, the Fins are comparable to the Bills. But they can't, or at least haven't, beaten us in years. Must be we are just a terrible matchup for them, though I'm not sure exactly why.

Josh is far from his best right now as some of the problems we saw earlier resurface. Its a combination of mediocre o-line play in pass pro, suspect play calling, lousy footwork and poor QB decisions in favouring lower percentage, though bigger payoff, options when going through progressions (as well as maybe a little overconfidence). Insofar as his play is concerned, these are fixable problems in Allen's case because he has already shown that he can correct them (because he is smart and has all the physical ability you could possibly want). We will see whether and how the team deals with the o-line, game planning including in-game adjustments and play-calling.

and 108 sacks

Diggs wow

Moss went to high school in Buff?

hes on a one year k
