I think the scheme can dictate the players aggressiveness.

Yeah we drafted a player and kept him on the bench most of last season for Hamlins below average. Exactly what I’m talking about.

It’s because our D is soft, not sure what else to say. McD has these guys playing on their heels terrified to make big mistakes so they give up a lot of easy plays waiting for the opposing team to make the mistakes. Against better teams they get chewed up, that’s why all our playoff exits look similar. Even the Ravens game, it wasn’t our D that made a play at the end to save the game, Ravens walked down the field with ease to score a TD. Bills got lucky Ingram dropped an easy catch where our D had no one in the vicinity of him to actually break up the play.

It’s the same way we been bounced out of the playoffs year after year. I’m not freaking out but I’m sick and tired of this soft defense. Use to this *****! Who else can we complain to besides the people on this board. McD and Beane are off chasing one or two plays year after year instead of trying something different on D.

So we lose in playoffs with our D playing terrible again. Great!

Pretty much

Hamlin ain’t average. Rather a young guy that don’t know the playbook making his foolish mistakes then waste money on him.

The whole “he knows the system” has done nothing for us but keep average players around to long. Some of us said last year starting Damar over Bishop would only prolong Bishops learning curve. Players learn faster on the field not the film room. Experience matters and when you’re playing guys that aren’t very good with no upside it hurts the team short term and long term.

Hamlin should have never been resigned, same can be said about Dane Jackson. Both not very good and you should be looking to upgrade even if it’s only depth players. They are a liability and always have been.

Moore ain’t getting cut. Might not look great but he’s gonna get some playing time. Two years ago most of this board had Shakir getting cut. They kept Shitfield and the midget around all season and Moore is way more proven then both those clowns.

What we seen last night is a lot of what we see in the playoffs against Chiefs. Difference is Allen is moving the ball chewing up time and putting points on the board. D system is soft.

10 yard cushions is part of McDs D

That’s all I can take. Glad the D was on the field the whole game, they need as much practice as possible. Dorian and Hancock are the only two players on the D that looked like players tonight. So glad we brought back Dane for CB depth😂😂. Why we gotta keep bringing back guys that aren’t that good here then leave and are bad somewhere else blows my mind.

Bishop had real bad play that lead to a TD. Not even sure he was on the field after the first drive and still everyone all over him. The way he’s getting ***** on you’d think he played the whole game like Damar

Too funny. They look like the starters when they play the Chiefs in the playoffs

Other teams ain’t showing ***** either so to have a guy be able to win a one on one would be nice

Josh has played so good in playoffs it’s kind of embarrassing that they haven’t been to the Super Bowl. Says alot about the system McD is running on defense and some of the HC blunders that he’s made in crucial times.

If he let him walk next year Beane would be pretty dumb. Get what you can get for him now, Ray Davis ain’t no slouch.

Who the ***** is in charge of loosening these guys up before practice?

Moore has been a pretty solid player considering his QB situation. Not sure how some people can’t see that. If Khalil Shakir spent 4 year in the same QB situation as Moore no one would know who the ***** he is. Sure we are talking about a 2nd round pick and a fifth but once you hit the practice field that ***** shouldn’t matter. McD atleast tries to make us believe that. I love Shakir, wanted to see more of him right from the first pre season game but he’s just a solid player in good situation. Honestly I haven’t heard much of Palmer until Moore was kept out of practice. Some things just take time.

People practice differently, some push their limits and others just don’t want to make a mistake.

Well that’s good. Tre gonna be starting now but maybe Max will be ready for when Benford drops out of playoffs

When does that happen? Tre is gonna start, Max’s progression will be on the slow track. Bills get knocked out of playoffs because Tre is a liability against the stronger teams. The McD way I like the idea of earning it as much as the next guy. Seems to me though aging players who have lost a step or players coming off injury don’t have to prove anything, just show up.

Gotta make a stand somewhere to show him who’s the boss

If he doesn’t make it to practice next week McD him have him inactive all season milking the missed some time excuse.
