BillsGuru4 Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 I’m very excited to watch Allen and Edmunds grow, what a draft! They went after Levi and he played lights out. I’m taking mostly all positives from this game. The only negative I’ll point out is Daboll’s inability to help Josh.

Gotta love the folks that watch weekly highlights and believe they're qualified to be an NFL Head Coach. Come on. No one wanted to move on. He has not played great and people were questioning whether he would be better at OLB. He played well today. I don't think he played great. But he was better today.
Apocalypse Nuts Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 He definitely wasn't a liability and he was making adjustments on the D a lot. He's learning quickly this year. That's awesome. He's trending in the right direction and he'll be really dangerous for a long time if he just keeps that up. Great thread, OP. Edmunds' solid work today should get its own thread.

The defense really did a great job of taking away three or four things the Pats like to do. I will, say, however, that not having Gordon or Edelman at 100% severely limits what they can do. They don't have the weapons they normally do. I do not think Gordon can be 100% without being stoned or Edelman without being on roids so they are severely limited.

Bob in STL Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Tremaine was excellent today. Bellichick did did not expose him as some feared. The Sal Mariano’s scouting assessment story from last week was way off.
BuffaloRebound Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 His length and range are so damn unique for a MLB. Brady loves those play action fakes where he draws the LB to the line of scrimmage and then lobs the ball over their head for easy completions. Edmunds completely disrupts that with his length and range. 2

We shut the short passing game to the RB down. All while stopping the run. Usually the Pats exploit teams one way or the other. 2
Formerly Allan in MD Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 Edmunds was tremendous today. It just jumped out at you play after play. 2

GreggTX Posted October 1, 2019 Posted October 1, 2019 I liked what I saw from Edmunds week 1. He didn't always make a play, but he was always around the ball a lot more than last year. I believe he'll turn out to be a better player than Josh Allen.

I think what some people think he is could be an absolute animal at OLb where he could rush the passer and rely on his instincts. MLB requires a special skill to diagnosis plays which can delay your aggressiveness. It takes more than a good athlete to be a good MLB. Zach Thomas was undersized but just could read plays and beat o linemen to the point of attack. I think TE had trouble with this as a rookie. Glad to see him making improvements but I still think he could be a 15 sack guy on the outside. 2

Jordan Poyer is a SS .. not because he intimidates players over the middle but because he is a ball hawk in a passing league.. in the modern NFL coverage skills are starting to reign supreme Edmunds is a freak FOOTBALL PLAYER and lots of scouts agreed he had all pro potential at every linebacker spot... He is a dangerous Blitzer but doesn't have any real pass rush moves https://www.nfl.com/prospects/tremaine-edmunds?id=32194544-4d00-0000-c30c-56fb5191e34f At the Mike, he gets to use his elite athleticism and be around the ball every play.. dropping a 6'5 Mike with speed on passing downs is ahead of the curve(something the Bills haven't been in a long time) disrupts passing lanes, and clogs the middle Tremaine is gonna be a helluva player for us for a long time Edited October 1, 2019 by Buffalo716 4

I know others do not agree but I have seen significant strides from him in his fundamentals and gap discipline this year. And he always had that knack for the spectacular play. I am not moving him. I am keeping him in the middle of that defense and I believe we are watching him develop into a dominant player right before our eyes. 3
