When does that happen on this play? You mean after the fullback and lineman both blocked him? Edited November 5, 2020 by Tenhigh
RochesterLifer Posted November 5, 2020 Posted November 5, 2020 Edmunds was doing his job, 1/11. By drawing Burkhead and the offensive lineman to him, away from Newton, he created a lane for Zimmer to swoop in and punch the ball out. Everyone sacrifices in victory.

billsfan_34 Posted November 6, 2020 Posted November 6, 2020 Havent been a fan of his play. That said he has been imjured, DL right s not good and well, I feel we have piled on him enough the past few weeks
kota Posted November 6, 2020 Posted November 6, 2020 He was against two guys, has a bum shoulder, and was out because of a knee and he still fought like hell. 1
Straight Hucklebuck Posted November 6, 2020 Posted November 6, 2020 On 11/1/2020 at 5:21 PM, Coach Tuesday said: You want him to do what, beat two blockers? He looks like John Wendling used to look when the Bills made him play linebacker. Keith Ellison was like this too, just defended for years for mediocre play. It doesn’t matter now where he was drafted, or how young he is, he’s a terrible player. He would make up for it if he forced turnovers. But you’re getting a goose egg there too. Plays 97% of snaps.

SoCal Deek Posted November 6, 2020 Posted November 6, 2020 (edited) Why is it so hard for me people to see that Edmunds is just too tall and skinny to play MLB? (I had hoped he’d add some weight as he grew older and had a professional training table staff to help him.) The body type challenge persists, is absolutely obvious, and has been for some time now. While tall and skinny are both assets in pass defense they are huge liabilities against the run. The coaching staff took the gamble that the NFL had become a passing league and went with Edmunds, who I'm guessing they assumed could drop into coverage to defend guys like Gronk. Unfortunately the opposition watches film too and has figured out it’s just simpler to pound it down our throats. Edited November 6, 2020 by SoCal Deek
Old Coot Posted November 8, 2020 Posted November 8, 2020 I think Edmunds will continue at MLB. Why? The Bills play Tampa-2 a lot. With two deep safeties there's a hole in the center of the field in front of & between the safeties. Edmunds has the speed to fill that hole. Think Urlacher's role with the Bear's D. A thumper at MLB doesn't have the speed or agility to do that.
