You ask a question, it gets answered so you ask the same question again. Gap discipline. The coaches have said it, it's a problem. I've even given you an example but please, by all means, ask the same question again. When you get cut back to 18 snaps, I'm guessing you aren't fulfilling your assignments. Because you didn’t answer the question the answer is you don’t have any idea you just want to B word phillips got more reps because he has been one of the best dts in the league its a lot like ford actually could easily be starting at right guard but there is a vet that is just playing well

You're the one who likes a good fight. You know so much, prove me wrong, I'll wait. Bottom line, he was one of the issues in the run defense. Playing himself out of position. Notice those snaps were mainly in the first half and the adjustment came at half time? Probably not. But it's ok, keep talking.
John from Riverside Posted November 5, 2019 Posted November 5, 2019 Look it up Oliver has been grading out as one of our best run defenders

I hope he turns it around Clearly McDermott and the Bills staff has this all wrong. The many experts at this forum have been assuring me all along that Oliver is doing just fine, he was a great pick, and in fact, anyone who suggests he is a bust is an idiot who doesn't know football! The funny thing is that this is how this place works for just about all issues. The vocal majority supports the team in all ways at all costs, despite being wrong, then slowly comes around to reality some time later. Once the player/coach is gone from the team, they become the butt of jokes. LOL.

I think honestly he is doing well on passing situations. But he is a bit of a liability in the rushing game. I think he can get eaten up by mauler guards. Now I do think that long term he can be a 3 down DT but he needs a full off-season of NFL strength and conditioning to beef up a bit without losing his quickness. I think if adds that little bit of size and strength he could be off to the races. I think at this point it is best to just rotate the other 4 DT’s on the early downs and short yardage situations while using Oliver on 3rdand 2ndand long situations.
RocCityRoller Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 Don't be surprised to see a stud 1 technique DT or LB selected in the first next year. SF kept drafting defensive front 7 until the mix was right, and told the offense to make due. SF and Carolina are the blueprint OBD wants to emulate.

I concur and he needs to work on his hands as well. I think if he can have time with Kyle this offseason that will help him tremendously.
Turk71 Posted November 6, 2019 Posted November 6, 2019 (edited) The Bills defense gave up 127 yds rushing to a Redskins team with no passing game, 15 yds more than their season average allowed. They also allowed 5.5 yds per rush, a full 1.1 yds more than the season average. Maybe Oliver isn't the problem? Edited November 6, 2019 by Turk71
