BmarvB Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 THE BIG #1) Once again, penalties, penalties, and more penalties. This time they cost us 2 TD's AND the game. 2) Roman's play calling was off this week. 3) We finally have a TE 4) Darby has all but officially taken McKelvin's job at CB. 5) I still think the defense was better with Schwartz running it. 6) Offense is still much better with Roman running it than it was under our last coordinator. 7) There were some questionable non calls from the zebras, but there still no excuse for what we saw out there. 8) TT CAN play from the pocket, and would have pulled this game out (see #1) 9) We're 0-2 vs SB winning QB's/coaches this season so far. 10) We'll take this one out on Tennessee next week.
Charles Romes Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 that's the one positive from today TT staying in pocket and avoiding sacks with eyes downfield. Really impressed. Really got killed by not having sammy. Harvin and woods need the best DBs on sammy to be successful.

PearlHowardman Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 The older I get the wiser I get. And the wiser I get the more I understand that if your NFL team doesn't have a good head coach your NFL team is going no where. And the Buffalo Bills do not have a good NFL head coach. Rex Ryan is a total clown.

Agree with everything!! Great post
BmarvB Posted October 4, 2015 Author Posted October 4, 2015 This team scares me. You never know which one will show up from week to week.

BuffaloFan68 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Gotta agree with #5 - this D was a LOT better with Schwarts!!! #7 is also a valid point. The calls were very 1 sided. Just for example the Giants WRs got away with a lot of push-offs & their CBs got away with some obvious PIs yet not called & we were called for beathing on their players - not to mention all the muggings on Hughs, Kyle Williams, Dareus & Mario.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Going deep into the third quarter I was still wondering if anyone had advised this team that the game had started.
BuffaloFan68 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 EJ, Losman & Kelly are the only QBs we've had with a good deep ball, in the last 20 yrs.
Bacchus44 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 I agree 100% with everything that the OP mentioned - good post!

This was the big reason why we lost today. Especially on the Giants FG attempt. 2. Agreed. How is it that our offensive play calling was so good and creative against Miami last week, and so inept this week? 3. Clay had a rough first half, but stepped up in the 2nd half. He's good. 4. Darby should be the permanent starter, although it'll be nice to get McKelvin back and make our secondary stronger. 5. Debateable, let's see more from this defense. 6. Without question. 7. Agreed. 8. Tyrod was not the problem today. 9. Yes, but this was not a Super Bowl team they were playing today. 10. We better. No more excuses. You have to beat weaker opponents.
PearlHowardman Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 Thank you for your opinion.....which you only seem to give after a loss The Onondaga County Community College football team could have beaten Indy and Miami. Rex Ryan is not a good NFL head coach. Period.
BmarvB Posted October 5, 2015 Author Posted October 5, 2015 I'm still lost on why is it last year under Schwartz, we relied much more on only a 4 man rush and not only led the league in sacks, but were much much tougher against the run than we are now?
BuffaloHokie13 Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 I'm still lost on why is it last year under Schwartz, we relied much more on only a 4 man rush and not only led the league in sacks, but were much much tougher against the run than we are now? It was a very simple defense that allowed our superior athletes to simply beat the person in front of them. In Rex's defense the players have to think more, which is slowing them down. Or at least that's my opinion.
BuffaloHokie13 Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Absolutely. We had a simple defensive scheme last year. Rex broke that. On the plus side, the delay from thinking does reduce as players get used to the scheme. But part of me wonders if too much was dumped on the Defense at one time. Might be helpful to simplify a bit until the players are more comfortable.
The Frankish Reich Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) 5- Age on the DL, don't ignore it: Mario 30 Kyle 32 Hughes 27 And Dareus is the youngster (25). Plus last year Schwartz used the strict DL rotation, so we saw a really fresh DL (particularly as opposed to the opponent's OL) late in the game. It drove some folks crazy - remember the threads after the Houston game about "why is Dareus not out there in a critical Texans drive?" - but it worked. Seattle also had great success with a similar rotation. It was ... disciplined. "Discipline" and "Rex" never appear in the same sentence unless the words "lack of" are also there ... I haven't looked at snap counts ... am I correct that the starters counts are way up and guys like Bryant/Charles/Lawson are considerably down? Edited October 5, 2015 by The Frankish Reich

Ryan's defense is a much more complicated one than last years.
Solomon Grundy Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 You're right on the money with that one! Ryan's defense is a much more complicated one than last years. Plus Eli was getting rid of the ball faster than Brady did!!
