Exactly this. Our biggest weakness with Dorian is instincts. Playaction/positioning in zone/etc. He plays like a freight train, just gets out of position at times but again improving. Get Milano healthy come January, things always happen and we will need all 3 of our LBs. Cam has also played above expectation at the dime. I'm all for sticking with that package, even with a healthy Milano, on obvious pass downs. That might be part of what Coach is also alluding to.

If anything, we start to see Milano on pass downs. But our dime with Cam has been working very well. Williams is off the field on 3rd downs currently, unless 3rd and short. His pass game/playaction awareness/zone positioning just isn't that great yet. Always need depth at LB come playoffs, as we've seen in past years.

Is the "new" Curtis Samuel here to stay?
MasterStrategist replied to Logic's topic in The Stadium Wall
Samuel's finally getting over his turf toe enough to be almost 100%. He was doing this in OTAs and training camp, until the toe. He's always been a weapon, just needed to get healthy and has been open on alot of routes that Josh didn't go his way with. Just encouraged to see the diverse group we have working, Kincaid and Keon will eventually be back, and this is what Beane mostly envisioned coming into the year. Finally getting RAC, Shakir especially is just special at this, but Samuel offers enough wiggle. At some point, need to get those slants/deep ins to Cooper going. He'll get more freed up as others step up. -
The entire operation of Reid/Martin/Bass looked just a bit off today. High snaps, snaps to the outside shoulder of Martin...did Martin get the ball spinned or were laces in? Bass does have a bad habit of pushing kicks to the right. But in today's NFL, still not sure why we can't have goalposts with cameras at the top.

No Swift at Highmark thanks to Bills Mafia!
MasterStrategist replied to JPL7's topic in The Stadium Wall
Nothing against Taylor, she's just like any opposing fan to me. I don't berate anyone, but also not going to treat opposing fans with any special treatment. They'll get heckled every minute of every game, and that's just my attitude toward someone walking into our home rooting for the visiting team. Taylor can do her thing in KC, but not going to feel bad if she feels unwelcome in Buffalo. I don't care for her music, but glad for anyone who is a devoted NFL fan. -
Nobody who really is a true " die hard" takes Josh for granted. I told my 6 year old son today, who watches full Bills games/knows the rules/etc living in Steeler country, that having a QB like Josh isn't something to take for granted. We are all fortunate as Bills fans. Josh does things that nobody else can do. He puts this team on his back in key situations every game, especially today with many 3rd and longs, and on the most critical play of the game on his 26 yard scramble. Everyone should cherish his time in Buffalo, and no doubt we eventually win a SB. But it's also OK to 2nd guess his play/decision making too. He missed several opportunities today, not only Morris but mostly to Samuel. Cooper made some unreal catches at critical times too, or we are talking about a different outcome potentially. Again, Josh is the best QB on the planet and no way we're sitting at 9-2 without him. But he can be inconsistent, and if he can hone in some of that, we'd be unstoppable. That's what playoff Josh has been, an unstoppable force with a so-so defense/supportive cast. Josh is least of our concerns, but his bar is so HIGH compared to anyone else, and that's what fans expect of him. Not perfection, but excellence when it matters. Josh delivered just enough of that excellence today, but it was also nice to see that we had a defense ONLY GIVE 7 POINTS in the 2nd half. That's been our issue vs KC, credit to Josh but also defense. Josh didn't do enough single handedly today, he needed some support and got it. Josh is the best there is, but we need those 1-2 earlier plays....defense bailed us out enough, then Josh made an unreal play to win it on 4th down.

He's just a great team player, playing alot of positions/roles for us on gameday. @HappyDays I recall wasn't the biggest fan. Lewis isn't Taron, but plays a key role for this team. This is what the 2024 Bills are all about. Some non star players being very good at their respective roles. See Lewis, Mack Hollins, etc. Doing their 1 11thn. Without Josh, this doesn't work. But Josh +a group of Shakir, Cook, Samuel, Cooper, Knox can be good enough. Adding in a healthy Keon, Spencer and Kincaid...then we have a top tier OL and offense capable of exploiting mismatches. I know this is about Cam, but this just brings up the point that we have a supportive of players this year doing their part.

Glad you're still a loser and not admitting defeat. Go to bed old man

He's such a weapon. Big props to @Alphadawg7, he called this and has been spot on with alot of predictions. Id like to see empty on 1st downs and get Josh an easier coverage read, ability to take off. Brady has been consistent though, not giving up on the OL/rungame. -

Lol OK lower. Go back to your accounting exercises. Offer some actual feedback. You're incapable of any comeback but "troll". Sign of an incapable poster. Go ahead and post that tax return again. -

MasterStrategist replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
What? For real...dude you've been a know it all here forever Mr Tax Return. I'm as loyal and Josh fan as you get. I just call it like it is. What happened on your earlier screenshot? Selective bias not showing our deep crosser? No trolling here. Josh is getting confused with the KC looks. I'm about about going empty looks now, will give easier coverage reads. -

Not really Josh had time to even take off if he wanted. Josh is locking into routes too early. He's been staring down routes too frequently against their man looks. Chiefs staying cover 2 on 1st down, need playaction hit the TE or RB in the middle for some easy yards. Then take our shots on 2nd. -
