BADOLBILZ Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 He was awful today. Worst player on the field. He's been poor most of the season and I think today was on par with or as bad as he's been all season. Critically poor instincts........big target who can't get off blocks.........not strong or physical enough.......poor leverage........doesn't move well thru traffic........doesn't make plays in a scheme where he should be making a ton of them. He's young........yeah........but this isn't the QB position.......good MLB's are almost without exception tremendous right out of the gate. Don't be surprised if he's at OLB next season folks. 9 5
Boca BIlls Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 (edited) Nah I can think of many WR's that are worse. He is the youngest to play the position. Edited December 23, 2018 by Boca BIlls 1
BillsFan130 Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 Was very unfortunate to see. Seems to be regressing a bit. They need him to be very good as he’s a very important player in this defence 3
SoCal Deek Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 Thank you. Nothing against this kid but he’s not been out of position as much as he’s simply been blown off the ball. He’s simply not the right body type at this level of competition. 1

Guest K-GunJimKelly12 Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 I agree, it's time to be worried about him.

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 He should play Wlb. He’s not physical enough or good enough against the run to play MLB. 4
billsfan_34 Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 On the defensive side he was brutal and here is why - Consistently out of position - Over pursues - Plays too tall - Never lowers his shoulder pads - Weak tackler- everytimehe tackles the player goes forward a few more yards - Takes horrible angles- misses way to many tackles. this one is on the regime. 1 minute ago, ScottLaw said: 100% agree. Problem is the dude is regressing. He's been making the SAME mistakes since week 1 and has only missed one game due to injury. Its a cause for concern right now and I don't think the Bills can risk going into a crucial 3rd season for this regime with him as their starting MLB. If he is they are going to have to have a very short leash. He should be playing OLB 1
Roundybout Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 Time to panic and fire everyone I guess 8

BillsSbSoon Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 His insincts are bad and hes really awful in play action. Tackling is soft. Runs sideline to sideline well, nearly picked brady off. Hes so young that yeah its worrisome but you def cant write him off. Today was pretty bad for the most part though
entropyrules Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 IMHO he was always going to be a boom or mediocre (not bust like Maybin) player ... 2019 will tell what the Bills have in him but right now it looks like passing on Vanderesch (sp) may have been a mistake not only for losing a better player but the extra draft choice to draft Edmunds
DuckyBoys Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 probably a better fit at OLB Go sign another tackler to man the middle with Milano and move him over He is such a athlete/freak they will figure out how to get the most out of him

But this would be another big miss in the draft for this regime. Zay and Edmunds. I never liked him being slotted at MLB- to me hes more suited for OLb/hybrid DE. 1
ghostwriter Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 Edmunds should be our SLB/situational pass rusher. Need a MLB. 3
KW95 - JA17 Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 Im not sure if any knew this, but today 49 was the Mike! How do I know? Brady kept yelling it every play!
leonbus23 Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 Darr was the worst. Allen was 2nd. Edmunds 3rd. 1 1
