eSJayDee Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 Chris Brown wrote of how well the Bills Dee contained Foster. So, when you're winning & trying to kill the clock & your opponent is trying to stop you to get the ball back, that's considered "garbage"? Foster finished with 111 yards on 24 carries, but got a lot of garbage yards at the end when Houston was trying to kill clock and shorten the game. I actually think the Dee did "okay" yesterday. Better than I anticipated & far better than recent stds. Why make a lame excuse for them? Save that for the offense.

To be fair, in the 3rd quarter the defense held Foster to 8 carries for 16 yards... I'd say that's doing there job. Edited November 5, 2012 by Wayne Cubed
BillsVet Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 He is paid by the organization and as such rarely criticizes. But I'd agree, that's pretty weak to highlight success from a game like that.
KD in CA Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 I wouldn't call it galling. Incredibly stupid is more accurate.
UConn James Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 "Garbage yards" as I've always heard it, is when you're down by like 20 in the 4th quarter and your QB is making non-defended completions of 10 yards as their D plays heavy contain and safeties slightly deeper. You know... like Fitz got against the Jets in the opener.

Luxy312 Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 When all is said and done, the defense was not the problem yesterday. They allowed a mere 3.7 YPC. The problem once again was coaching. 38 pass attempts for Fitzpatrick and only 16 rush attempts for the Bills RB's. 0-3 in the red zone. Absolutely pathetic play calling.
