DasNootz Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 The colts carved us up having TEs or Zach Pascal cross in front of the LBers, where our CB would either get caught in the shuffle or hand off to LBers that weren’t on the same page. I suspect the next opponent will do the same until we adjust. 1

Allen would have over 500 yards passing if given that kind of protection 1 1

Logic Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 I see "overreaction Monday" is in full effect this week, even though it's Sunday. So far today, I've seen "Milano should have been benched" and "Daboll is dumb and needs to be gone immediately". I mean......wow. Just wow. 2 3

Hopefully the film explaining what went wrong there, why, and how to prevent it from happening again, is first thing on the agenda at the next defensive meeting. I suspect the coaching staff was already watching film last night! These guys are working 24 hours a day at this time of year. 1

He had 0 tackles, 0 QB hits, and 0 sacks in those 3 snaps. If you're comparing how a different player performed against a different OL in different game plan, I'm sorry that is just silly.

bobobonators Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 Im confused. I thought Milano played pretty well. But what do i know. 17 minutes ago, Logic said: I see "overreaction Monday" is in full effect this week, even though it's Sunday. So far today, I've seen "Milano should have been benched" and "Daboll is dumb and needs to be gone immediately". I mean......wow. Just wow. It’s nauseating. People think we should win by 40 every game. I wish some of these people’s supervisors held them with the same amount of accountability. 1
Stanley Lombardi Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 There have been games, many games, when I thought Milano played the best game on our defense. If he were benched, it would be difficult for him to make me think that again.
JoshAllenReceipts Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 And to think, many Bills fans said that Matt Milano was a bigger priority to resign than Daryl Williams. We can all agree now that Daryl Williams is FA priority #1, right? Right?? 1

Even if we cant keep Milano (which id like to) there may be a couple of solid LB’s available towards the bottom half of the draft

Allen would have over 500 yards passing if given that kind of protection No pressure on a potential HOF QB who is like a coach on the field. Can’t place all blame on LB’s given old man Rivers was smoking his pipe in the rocking chair. Takes a full team effort. Yes Colts TE’s were open all day, each level of D owns some of that. In addition to having to be concerned with the run. Colts did a heck of a job with scheme.
Ethan in Cleveland Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 I swear I am watching a different game than some on this board at times. The TD pass was on White not Milano The LB that was terrible was Edmunds not Milano. Edmunds was out of position almost the entire game again. He really is clueless. Go back and watch the long 4th quarter runs. Edmunds is being blown up by small tight ends. Then watch him and Ed Oliver whiff on the 4th and 1 in the backfield. He had one pass break up and one time where he was close to the tight end that dropped the ball. That's it. 1 hour ago, BillsEnthusiast said: Resign Williams and use the tag on Milano.

Dude was on fire dropping balls in between zone coverage...he played a nearly perfect game
DQW87 Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 Milano got beat in a few pass coverages. Some that I thought he had no business being on in the first place. He was good on most running plays and single handedly stuffed their 2 point conversion run. If you want to talk LB's having a bad game, I think Edmunds is right up there. He seems to miss more tackles than everyone on the team. Always diving at the feet of runners and them sliding out of the tackle. He is always among leaders in tackles because of where he plays and usually comes in at the end to asists on tackles.
