The point, as several have pointed out, is that McD’s scheme is designed to defend the pass first, and can be vulnerable to the run for the same reasons that make it a tough pass D Expand What the Hell do you want from me?! 1

Expand Control the ball on offense and a sound defense. Niners have an excellent chance to win. Ultimately, doesn’t matter to me who wins. I am more of a Niners fan, but wouldn’t hate a Chiefs win.

He was great against the run and Jordan Phillips is not. I know they like their rotation but when teams caught Phillips and Liuget on the field at the same time they knew they could run. Getting Harry back will help too. 1

Expand That’ll help, but the unanswered questions are 1) whether Edmunds will improve vs the run, because they seem deeply committed to him at MLB 2) whether they can build a DT rotation that isn’t susceptible because I don’t see McD going to 100% Oliver/Phillips 3) defense vs screen plays

Expand Dude, your answer was the sarcastic “So they are not going to put any effort into fixing that.” And when I call you on that being a non-answer because part of the issue is how they’ve built the LB corps with key draftees, you say you’ve given an answer and I’m being a “dick”?

Doc Brown Posted January 20, 2020 Posted January 20, 2020 With the rise of Mostert I wonder if Coleman will be available as he's pry a cap casualty.
Augie Posted January 20, 2020 Posted January 20, 2020 I don’t think the Bills are alone here as far as run D. The league went pass happy, largely due to rules. The league wants scoring and excitement (A/K/A RATINGS.) Your LB’s look more like big safety’s, you get lighter and faster to defend the pass, which opens you up to getting pounded by a power running game. The pendulum swings both ways. 1
