bisonbrigade Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 (edited) Everyone likes to harp on Tyrod Taylor and the passing game even though the Bills are 5th in scoring and are averaging 25 points a game. The #1 problem with the team are the safeties. Yes the safeties have one INT, no big plays, Big hits or game changing plays. And this on a Rex Ryan defense with Ed Reed as a secondary coach. Should be top priority this off season. Need a sheriff in secondary. Edited November 29, 2016 by bisonbrigade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 No one notices the safeties? It's the biggest complaint on D since AW got hurt. Like to the point of beating a dead horse (but I'll keep doing it until Meeks is no longer on the field) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Sack Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Our safeties should make receivers fear catching the ball in the middle. Remember Gronkowski getting popped by Earl Thomas? Yeah; those are the kinds of hits we need to be delivering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Direhard Fan Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Meeks had a sure interception on the TD pass in the end zone and went behind the receiver. He might inherit the earth but he messes up a lot on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Meeks had a sure interception on the TD pass in the end zone and went behind the receiver. He might inherit the earth but he messes up a lot on the field. Great play by the WR as well to flatten the route. Horrible recognition by Meeks that the route was flattened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TC in St. Louis Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Bring back Jim Leonhard. Man, Meeks was meek in that game. Ed Reed himself should suit up for this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah John Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 It's not true that no one notices the rotten safety play. People have talked about it all year, but at this point we're beating a dead horse. The front seven of the D is really playing well, the CBs are so-so, but the safeties are so bad the Bills can't get off the field on third down, if the other team even needs to get to third down. I think the biggest reason Gilmore and Darby have struggled at times is that they can't count on the safeties being where they're supposed to. And as other posters have mentioned, our guys are not big hitters. There's no fear by WRs about going across the field against our guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 That's a hole lot of truth right there. In my opinion this is where our 2nd pick of the draft should go (depending on who we take with the 1st....who I am hoping is a big physical wideout) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSOL Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Id LOVE for Whaley to find a hidden gem safety in free agency and go all offense in the draft this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
