This needs to be shown to the Bills LB on how to Blitz specifically Klein 

 

 


There’s also something called talent involved here.  
 

I’d love to have Wagner on this defense

But I thought going up against two blockers (a RB and OL, not two OL like Wagner did)means you can’t possibly be expected to make a play?

agree completely but ours do not attack the RB like wagner does they almost slow down

I’ve noticed more than a few times that the blitzer engages with a finesse move and almost spies the qb instead of trying to explode the play. 
 

certainly a time for each approach. Would like to see more of the violent hits from our lbs though

Unfortunately violent, physical, imposing are not words I would use to describe our LB core.

So future hall of famer.. Yeah they should watch his tape. Shouldn’t every linebacker in the league?


I don’t think anyone expects his results but at some point there’s some value to letting the other team know you intend to make it a hard day for them.

 

if being sent to hit the hole I’d rather they miss their assignment hitting a guy hard than getting caught in trash. Obviously best when you can just make the play but we aren’t doing that consistently to begin with. Easier to turn up the intensity than rebuild from the ground up mid season.

I agree. Blitzing up the middle has been especially ugly for us.

I, too, wish AJ Klein was instead All-Pro Bobby Wagner

If he would just watch this film for LB's on blitzing, he would be!

Yeah there was certainly some tactical contain going on out there today.

Not necessarily a poor technique against a QB who is more legs than arm this week.

Jamal Adams back next week too.....

Jamal was getting burned by Edleman badly when he was healthy.  He was a damn good blitzer though

Speaking of LB’s, did Darren Lee get signed. I can’t find anything.

takes longer with COVID but I would suspect it gets done

There is a point here, jokes aside. It's amazing how Klein gets absorbed by blocks. I swear I saw a RB hold him at the LOS, and he never got past it

I haven't seen a Bills LB shed a block in about a month

Hell, I'd settle for sure tackling from the LBs, at this point.

 

It's comical how often the LBs miss tackles
