Jim Schwartz defense was over aggressive in Buffalo that couldn't stop the run when it mattered All the sack numbers didn't mean anything when they were undisciplined when it mattered most Literally an Oakland raiders team with one of the worst offenses in the NFL put up 140 rushing yards and like 350 total with the season on the line

It's probably a mix of both... Richie incognito has some brain damage.. and he probably did think he was just trying to toughen Martin up What he didn't realize is that his actions were more of a psychopath or sociopath then a teammate.. he probably didn't even realize how insanely crude and disrespectful and insane he was Because that's how head injuries are... Like could incognito be in the wrong and have clinical head injuries? Yes Richie could be a great football player and a walking lawsuit at the same time.. he's not right in the head

Dolac entered the portal before his coach who was fired left.. Shaun was missing UB before that even happened There was a lot of family stuff going on

Statistically most quarterback injuries happen inside the pocket.. it is a lot more dangerous getting hit static in the pocket... By huge men at fast speeds... With bodies around your knees and ankles Then it is outside the pocket around more corners and safeties... Even Josh is bigger than your typical NFL linebacker now.. he's not bigger than defensive ends and defensive tackles who collapse the pocket Sure, has Josh gotten nicked up? Sure.. every quarterback gets nicked up.. Patrick mahomes is hobbling six games in to every season lol he's a professional football player there's a difference between hurt and injured... He gets nicked up he does not get seriously injured His iron Man streak shows that.. Brett favre is the NFL iron Man and he like Josh scrambled and ran around and took tons and tons and tons of hits.. but like Josh, he knows how to protect himself from severe injury Josh hurts his hands and his fingers.. he gets cuts on his elbows.. or rips off a fingernail... Hes really good at protecting himself from catastrophic injuries like knee or head injuries When he leaves the pocket he's bigger than everybody trying to tackle him... The defensive players on the boundary don't want anything to do with Josh Allen 99% of the time and statistically it is safer on the boundary than inside the pocket A decade long study showed: This study yielded many findings, but among them were two key observations: 1) Run Frequency didn’t reliably predict QB injuries and 2) quarterbacks that run most are injured less frequently than the NFL QB average. 10.4% is the NFL average percent of games missed do to injury for a NFL qb The quarterbacks are grouped via their run frequency... Josh Allen is in the highest category of running quarterbacks.. which has an injury rate of 9.5%.. which is less than the NFL average of 10.4% So there's a lot of factors that go into injuries.. but just being a running quarterback is not the biggest one... Because there's no correlation between running the most and the most injuries Even the Tom Brady statue group has an injury rate of 8.5.. just one percentage below Josh Allen... So the Allen group and the Brady group are both below the NFL average for injuries... But most quarterback injuries do happen inside the pocket Knockdowns: 1 injury every 57.1 plays (90 total injuries on 5,135 plays for a 1.8% injury rate) Sacks: 1 injury every 75.1 plays (52 total injuries on 3,903 for a 1.3% injury rate) Scrambles: 1 injury every 106.7 plays (23 total injuries on 2,455 plays for a 0.9% injury rate) Designed runs: 1 injury for every 174.2 plays (11 total injuries on 1,916 plays for an 0.6% injury rate) Statistically a designed run is the safest play for quarterback.. and scrambles is the second safest

Brett favre had a million hits too because he used to run around and scramble and throw on the run .. Patrick mahomes and Justin Herbert take hits inside and outside the pocket And Brett has the iron Man streak which Josh currently has for active... Every single NFL player is playing dinged up and nicked up Josh has avoided serious injury and can take small punishments better than most That actually says to me he's more in line for a long career if he wants to play that long.. if he wants to play till 35 and retire healthy he could .. with his toughness and current iron Man streak which he values he could easily play into his late 30s The way he plays the game reminds me of like Brett favre with the childlike passion.. that keeps you young

Eds advanced analytics have been really good for the last three four years.. he literally is always top 10 in quarterback hits and pressures he's a good run stopper.. 99% of defensive tackles need some help around them to consistently flash.. there's only one Aaron Donald.. and even he could get taken out of some games when they didn't have enough pieces around him and you brought a good game plan Defensive lines get it done as a unit Umm did you not read what I said I literally said we have a bunch of three techniques and tweeners Jordan Phillips is a good three technique.. he's not a one technique which we need

He wasn't even in the top five for getting hit this year.. Tom Brady is the most sacked quarterback of all time and he played the 42

I mean we literally brought in guys like Jordan Phillips off of waiver wires and he had 9 1/2 sacks Oliver has been disruptive plenty of time over his career We haven't valued the one technique position enough which leaves us with a bunch of tweeners and three techniques playing the one which hurts

So I was told it was nothing against Utah State or anything they did to dolac... He went in after the fall semester... Went right to work, earned a starting job at Utah State But something was always off... I guess you could call it home sickness from a kid who never really left wny.. Utah State was a great opportunity to play a little higher competition, play some bigger schools and put that on tape.. get a lil NIL , and another scheme experience But as I was told he just never felt right ... And he had some family issues...He prayed on it and UB was where his heart was... So he reached out to lembo and asked if he'd be willing to have him return to the program.. Lembo did his diligence and asked the players on the team if they wanted Shaun back which was a resounding yes

Tremaine intimidated quarterbacks not to throw his way because of his length Any quarterback that ever did had a lot of success.. let's be real smart quarterbacks were targeting him because he was easier to Target than the other people on the field I mean Milano is better in coverage.. Bernard is better in coverage now ... He's not some coverage savant he had a 56 coverage grade this year If he was Sean McDermott's Buffalo version of Luke kuechly we would have paid him And I'm not comparing dolac to Tremaine Edmunds.. I'm saying we went from a first round pick in Edmunds to a mid round pick in Bernard and was singing hallelujah because how much better Bernard was in coverage

Close enough lol Mormon , Amish Potato potata

Well you must have went to West Seneca West

At the end of the day if you're taking a kid undrafted.. it's hard to say hard no Because it's little risk... The 12 undrafted free agency they bring in aren't making or breaking anything The day of a two down run stuffer is basically obsolete.. it's like a dinosaur.. extinct.. Brandon spikes does not have a place on the NFL roster anymore You need to have some ability to run and cover.. because if a quarterback like Josh sees Brandon spikes on the field on first down .. he audibles and throws right at him You can't be one-dimensional Tremaine was the biggest middle linebacker in the NFL... And he was a run stuffer not a pass coverage guy.. and we couldn't wait to get rid of him Because of liabilities... Two games of Terrell Bernard and people were singing hallelujah

But Hamler Isabella and chasepool were all has beens or never was And we didn't draft any of them top 3 rounds , we picked them up for peanuts when they sucked

There definitely will be a place for him in the league.. he will grind out special teams great too The thing that makes it tough for his draft status is his playing competition and size / athleticism combo If he was 6'3 238 lb and ran in the 4.5s.. he could go in the top three or four Being around 225-230 with not a lot of room to add weight and concerns about his man coverage ability at the next level puts him in squarely as a developmental type guy rn who has good tape with instincts Which is why he's mostly pegged as an undrafted or late round pick

For diggs , yea

Brady Moss never won a super bowl either

@YoloinOhio Has certainly watched Jack Sawyer for years.. and I don't think he's his favorite player .. I don't think I want him in the first round either He was great in the playoffs but he was rather pedestrian for most of his buckeye career

I think that's because the Buffalo Bills didn't record stats like tackles in the early '70s He has a recorded sack for the bills so he definitely had a tackle.. the Buffalo Bills statisticians didn't track tackles till like 1978

That's typically how it always is outside of a top 20 consensus prospect The players ranked 30 to 85 are probably jumbled all over the board.. some might have a guy at 30 somebody might have him at 60.. somebody might have somebody at 27.. somebody else has him at 40 Outside of the consensus top 15 or 20 there's usually a lot of disparity.. that's why even NFL teams draft guys in the first round who the pundits said they had a second or third round grade on.. there's a disparity in grades

Well.. soliciting a prostitute and then going to the police after to say you were robbed is pretty embarrassing I'd rather keep that to myself

Bill belichick just like Sean McDermott was able to stick plenty of pieces into his scheme and get contributions Sean McDermott wasn't the first coach to have defensive players get a bigger contract from another team... Wish them luck.. just to bring them back when they didn't play up to their contract and get cut.. bring them back to Buffalo where they play pretty well again Bill belichick can get six round picks ready to play in his scheme all day just like Sean.. people forget Sean also helped develop four players on our defense into all pros.. Milano , both safeties and Tre White all became all pros under Sean McDermott He turned them into some of the best in the world

Gotcha Ofc his accomplishments should be praised higher A combine snub Is crazy considering he's the only one left off from AP all American list

For sure but what does Khalil Mack have to do with this? My point was dolac was first team All-American and did not get invited to the combine Mack was a top five pick

Yea of course it doesn't.. I may have even overestimated it with the 4.65... He might run a 4.71 And he's not going to be over 230 lb probably But what he does have is a lot experience in a 2 linebacker system.. and nickel is huge around the NFL... So he at least has tons of reps as a three down linebacker and will play special teams
