With Edmunds, it could just be pain management. If they aren’t worried about his injury getting worse by playing, might as well give him as much time as possible to get that shoulder healed up before game time. Edited September 25, 2020 by SCBills

Neutralizing Higbee changes their offense. He had 3td's last week. Edmund's is a big part of that. Being out there 3 days in a row I have to think he is playing.

Hope McD is up to the challenge this time. They've been far from elite the first two weeks. Don’t be silly. They gave up 10 points and then went into prevent week 1. They were very good/debatably elite. Last week I think it was a combo of injuries and catching fitz on a heater... which he’s still on. mill give you last week. But they were elite week 1 Edited September 25, 2020 by Stank_Nasty

We have way too much investment of that side of the ball to have them look like they’ve looked so far this season. I understand we’ve dealt with injuries, but that Miami second half from our defense was very disappointing to watch.

And then, after scoring to take a 24-20 lead, stopping Miami and getting the ball back so we could put the game away was disappointing as well. Against the Jets the defense was top notch. Against Miami they gave up short passes and played without two starting LBs. Go back and watch the replay -- Fitz was putting the ball in some tight windows. They've given up 30 points aside from two garbage time TDs when holding a double-digit lead. Some of you are pretty unrealistic with your expectations. 1

They were solid in week 1 but no where near elite against a pathetic Jets offense and average at best last week. Fitz/Gailey made the defense pay for most of the game. Watch Baltimore play defense. They are VERY GOOD. At least to start. Would love to see a bounce back performance this week. No. More of I guess I’ll give it to you but let’s have some context. and I’ve watched an elite defense for a year now in buffalo. I don’t need to watch Baltimore’s. Let’s get at least one of those LB’s back and see how things go.

Agree having Edmunds and Milano back would be a gigantic lift. I disagree. They made life absolutely miserable on the jets until they called off the dogs There was nothing about that last meaningless drive as time expired that said anything about the defense in week 1 Edited September 25, 2020 by Stank_Nasty 2

And, to your point, it is not an excuse to point out that the Bills matched up against the "Good Fitz" last Sunday. As we have seen, when he is on, Fitz can be downright lethal. Passes were coming out of his hand quickly (withstanding numerous hits from the defense in the process), were right on the money and he was trusting his receivers to make plays. And those receivers made some fantastic contested receptions. He played the same way against the Jags last night: 18 of 20 on pass attempts. I'm not sure that Goff has the mental make-up to stand in there and take the shots that Fitz endured last week -- or the mobility to evade pressure. Of course, the defense was indeed a bit soft in the middle of the field last week -- hopefully we get one or both LBs back this week to help.

Even without Edmunds/Milano, we have a high paid DL, with multiple high round draft picks invested, one of the best Safety duo’s in the NFL and Tre White.... The goal line stand may have been stopped even if Williams caught the pass that was right in his hands, but we’ll never know. Fitz was having his way with us outside of that stop you mentioned. The Jets are barely NFL level. Im hoping to see a defense on Sunday that makes life difficult for Goff and the Rams. That’s all I’m saying... because they didn’t do that to Fitz and the Dolphins.
