yep, no reason to get anybody hurt here

Agreed on the value of technique, but my advice to a fellow Bills fan whom I want to enjoy the games is to accept [t it for what it is becaue youre going to be seeing it on every down for the next several years

this is an uncompetitive asskicking on every piece of real estate on the field

its a part of what makes this defense very very good. its already resulted in 1 turnover today with Landry hearing footsteps and coughing one up might havge even been a facotr in Tannehil throwing that pick'n'go with his eyes closed

anybody else's HD reception getting tweaky?

you live by it, you die by it too.

Damn, that's a great throw too. If Harvin runs a more disciplined route, that is 6 He's 6'0; it's not the last time youre going to see it

No argumanets there, but running it to the long side is an awful long lateral throw against an NFL corner

I dont think the phish offense is going anywhere today. He can go conservative pretty early nad still not have it be the wrong call. In the only scenario we've seen so far, I thought he nailed it on the money vs the Colts

I think you can still run it if you have the right one-one matchup Harvin is going to hurt somebody with it on a day when we have a good ground game going

Greg Roman is a world class football coach

Didn't hear that one, I kind of tune them out unless they're actually talking about what's happening on the field.

He's also got great eyes on the field, an acute awareness of the key parts of the field on a given play and is a smart enough guy to not only recognize whats happening but relay it to an audience in fluid and accurate English. Plus you can tell he absolutely loves this shlt!

Most talking heads get me reaching for the remote, but Dilfer is one of 4-5 that I genuinely like

Lots of hands in passing lanes A lot of zone with DB's facing the LOS Minimal blitzing, aside from some typical flooding of the A gaps traffic jams within 5yrds of the LOS to bottle up McCoy and stifle any screen games topside help rolled towards Sammy a bunch of cheap shots at knees as soon as they're down 13 counter it with: Clay behind the LB's Harvin on the edges Woods running digs on the hashes late hits on Brady on 1stdown between the 20's

Or maybe they're just genuinely excited because they both love football. Pardon the hyperbole, but I think they'd be the best pair in the business if Berman was willing to do this full time. Even without him, Dilfer is going to be a great color guy whoever he works with.

What's goin on man? I've always wondered what the unrealized potential of this forum could be if the Bills ever actually became a really good football team. Very glad you're around to help find out!

I would assume he did; he's a ridiculous athlete. For some reason (body type, otherworldly quicks) I just never pictured him as a guy having as much long speed as he has short area burst.

I've watched that kid play a fair amount of football (most of it world-class) and I have never seen anybody make him look like that. This rare combination of talent and a smart, hyper-aggressive scheme is not something you get to watch very often. With rule changes designed to help the offense there's no way we'll ever get the same final results/stats, but does this defense have the potential to look sort of similar to something Rex's dad trotted out onto Soldier Field a few decades ago? I'd bet my truck that's not the last one of those we'll see. We've got legitimate NFL players peppered all over our ST's units. We won't know what our return teams will look like until somebody actually kicks to them, but both of those coverage units were absolutely swarming yesterday and were doing so with evil intent. I think we're going to have opportunities for loose footballs all over the field this year.

My favorite came on the opening drive of the 2nd half when he ripped that 10yrd out to Woods right at the sticks on 3rd down with a rusher directly in his grill. He keeps that up and we will make a deep playoff run.

Cmon man, they didn't dominate but they converted a bunch of short distance dives and kept a green QB clean all day. The holding calls need to be addressed before anything, but that was a solid first outing

He got blocked into him

I wish hed have been here during the Gilbride era
