Yep. KC actually challenges their receivers and gives gives their o line different looks at the line

Pass rush against 3 back up o lineman? Amazing..

Same boat. Never thought I would be going for a Mahomes team but just can’t go for Cinci after last week . Obnoxious jerks

Another bad call. That should not be a 15 yarder

It doesn’t get called every time though, far from it. We’ll agree to disagree

Are you talking about the last one, or the hold on AJ brown earlier in the drive? The hold on brown was legit, that illegal contact was lame IMO

You can literally call that every play though. Very ticky tack IMO, especially after you just called 2 on SF

At that same point. Never thought I would be going for a Mahomes led team but cincis arrogance is second to none

Burrow Vs Zone. 16 for 20 for 2 TDs in the 1st half. Against man? He was 2 for 7.. Yet we continue to run soft zone cause he’s terrified of giving up a long play. And you’re saying that’s not a scheme issue?

Like the poster showed the stats, bills predominantly played Zone and got carved. Burrow Actually struggled when throwing against man but Frazier sat back in his soft shell. That’s how I saw it as well and the stat confirms it

Do you have a stat that shows they played a lot of man coverage? To me and I think to basically everyone, it seemed like they were playing a soft zone coverage all game long. Maybe some man on early downs, but a ton of zone on 3rd downs

If Von Miller is in, what difference does it make if our corners are playing 10 yards off the receivers and Burrow gets rid of the ball in under 2 seconds? We could have had aaron Donald, nick bosa, Von Miller and Micah parsons and we wouldn’t win with that scheme we ran against the Bengals

Oh the bills defence is great every regular season, I’m not denying that haha . Only to fall flat on their face in the playoffs though every year. Same thing in 2021. Great against the chiefs in the regular season- hold them to 20 points and force 4 turnovers. Only to let up 42 and choke 13 seconds away in the playoffs. We have a pretty good sample size under MCD/Frazier that the bills can’t slow down great QBs in the playoffs. It’s not like getting crushed by Burrow is a one off type of game.

In the run it would have helped having Jones, I’ll agree with that. But the pass rush is irrelevant if you’re playing 10 yards off the receivers and giving Burrow the easy passes all game long. Having those guys play or not, it wouldn’t have mattered if Frazier ran the same soft zone coverage

If we have Von, Jones and Hyde against the Bengals, do we play well on defence? I am guessing no because the scheme never gave them a chance to win. You make very good points all around. I just think If the bills D takes the next step In the playoffs, they have to change their scheme and be more versatile at times

Drafting more mediocre D lineman is the best way to go in my mind..

They definitely need a WR2. Gabe is good as your 3rd/4th option, but he’s not a 2.

Translation: Dorsey Sucks. Your post is spot on and I agree 100 percent

I’ve never trusted this defence. It was hard to argue with the results they had in the regular season over the years, but time and time again they choke in the playoffs 2019- Blew a 16 point lead in the 3rd against Houston 2020- Got steam rolled by KC 2021- Steam rolled again and couldn’t stop 13 seconds 2022- No answer against 3 backup o lineman in bad weather

1. Let Frazier go, hire Fangio 2. Change the defensive scheme (as fangio would) 3. Let Edmunds and Poyer walk 4. Fire Dorsey and hire Reich 5. Use as many assets/resources on the offence as possible

Nope. He plays well against average teams, but great QBS toy with him all game long. See ya later in my books

Nice write up buddy, that was a good read👍

Edmunds definitely not as it would be over 20 mil as guys like TJ watt Jack up the price as they are listed as “linebackers”. Poyer, maybe but I doubt it. I think if a deal gets done with Poyer, they will have to make it a “phoney” 2 year deal where they push money away from the cap this year.

Ya fair enough. It’s a dangerous game to play though cause if you can’t find a long term deal, then you are stuck paying him that amount and Edmunds would have the leverage in that

If you tag him it would cost over 20 mil. Cause guys like TJ watt who are considered “linebackers” Jack up the price tag.
