    It shouldn’t be where we have to dig deeper to see his true value...

    Rousseau is in this Edmunds category where we need to dissect the tape to see any impact he’s having.

     

    There's no digging deep or any need to go to the film room; it's right there on your TV screen every week if you're paying attention.

    He's nothing like Edmunds.

    This guy is literally become the invisible

     

     

    If you think he's invisible, it isn't because he's playing poorly, it's because you can't see what he's doing.

    For gawd's sake, he led the team in tackles last night from the DE position, with 1-2 for a loss, and single-handedly blew up a key 3rd down that literally changed the scoreboard and gave the Bills a chance to win the game. :doh:

    Another week of this crap. Awesome. Here's the actual play:

     

    It's the 2nd one in the clip starting at 28 seconds. Here's what Allen sees as Knox is breaking open:

    So we are wanting Allen to throw the ball through a charging defender completely blind to what is going on at Knox's area of the field. Okay.

     

    Also not that it matters but the throw to Palmer is there if Palmer comes back to the ball. He instead starts running upfield. But I don't blame Palmer or any player for this crap play. This is on Brady for calling mesh for the 10,000th time in this game. Your OL has gotten worked all night and you call a play that asks your QB to stand in the pocket holding the ball while routes develop. Awful awful awful.

     

    Thanks, 'preciate the 2nd looks.

     

    #1- It's stunning how much of the Houston defense has that thing read before the Bills even snap the ball. Brady is in over his head against NFL defenses.

     

    #2- I didn't realize in real time that Palmer had broken it off.  If that's a designed option route, Palmer actually makes the right read. Unfortunately Edwards (who has about 6 games left in Buffalo) chased a a zone dawg upfield instead of dropping into passpro where he probably would have disrupted the twist and given Allen the time he needed.

    At this point I would rather they wait until the season is over. Less chance of some other lame duck getting promoted on the team because he got some wins toward the end of the season. More chance they actually look for a real coordinator this time. 

     

    McBeane has been making hires for 7+ years and in all that time the only legitimate NFL coordinator they've hired was a 60 year old milquetoast Leslie Frazier.

    In 7 freaking years.

    What on Earth would make anybody think these guys are going to bring a dynamic coordinator in here on either side of the ball?

    If you want to perhaps guess what Allen thinks about what Brady is calling and the WR’s are running…

     

     

     

    That clip was after the failed 4th/1 where they ran Cook over G for the 4th play in a row (3 to the L, one to the R).

  6. This team has been in a funk all year long.

    It is the worst coached Bills team we have seen in the Allen era, and it's not even close, imo.

    There is no attention to detail, both sides of the ball are frequently confused and on different pages, self-scouting and situational awareness are completely absent on Sundays and there is no good answer at this point of the season.

    The player can sense it and as a result we are seeing multiple games with unfocused, unmotivated players. The only time they really get geeked is when the play rivalry games against opponents they personally dislike (Chiefs, Jets, Ravens), the rest of the season they have mostly been going through the motions.

    Unless they get younger at multiple positions and retool with an entirely new coaching staff, we are probably going to see more of the same going forward.

    I don't disagree about the drives but it is more on the staff than Brown.  Players will always try and gut it out, especially guys like Brown.  It is easy to say he should have taken himself out but that is not how a warrior behaves.

     

    Agreed.

    I just said the same thing about the staff in another post.

    It was fourth down.  Would you have preferred that he threw it out of bounds?   Who else was running open there for a first down?

     

    Knox (I think) was coming off the pick and was open for the first but Allen tried to force it to Palmer(?) in the endzone off his back foot.
