Since1981 Posted January 10, 2022 Posted January 10, 2022 D and O are good enough to beat any AFC team. D keeps them in any game until or if the O has a dip. Quote

And a good portion of this without a very expensive db, white! Jackson has been really solid. Would never rethink the white deal as he has so many intangibles. But maybe it affects further signings ,esp Wallace as Jackson is still on his rookie deal. Levi could be expendable next year. Quote

Ask Zach Wilson how good he thinks they are after the Jets put up almost 400 yards of offense last week against the Bucs. 1 Quote

That’s probably true ( I wasn’t old enough to watch football in the 70s ;)). That said if we are playing a team like KC, and we’re down late in the game, do you trust this D to get a stop? I don’t. Just now, Big Turk said: Ask Zach Wilson how good he thinks they are after the Jets put up almost 400 yards of offense last week against the Bucs. Lol. I know it’s been a crazy season. It’s so hard to get a read on a team. Of all the AFC teams left, who will the Bills not have a chance against? Or to rephrase, of the playoff bound AFC teams who can beat the Bills? Quote

That said if we are playing a team like KC, and we’re down late in the game, do you trust this D to get a stop? I don’t. Because this is an offensive league. The Bills need to keep up on offense to beat the Chiefs, although we played them earlier in the season and the defense handled them pretty well. Quote

I posted in another thread, but these are the numbers for the Patriots RB Harris the three times the Bills defense has faced him: 11/01/20 16/102 TD 12/06/21 10/111 TD 12/26/21 18/103 3TD TOTALS: 44/316 (7.18 YPC) 5TD Time for redemption Quote

TheBrownBear Posted January 10, 2022 Posted January 10, 2022 D was so damn good today. I know it was just the Jets, but feeling really good about them at the moment. Quote

If I had to choose any defense to get a stop against KC bills would be my top choice. Name 5 defenses you would rather have than the bills in the situation you described.

That is probably because your perception of what is possible on defense in the NFL of 2021 is out of whack. Dominant defense is impossible to play. There hasn't been one since the LOB broke up in Seattle in about 2015. The best you can do in the league now is play restriction defense. And the Bills play that exceptionally. 3 hours ago, AlfaBill said: That’s probably true ( I wasn’t old enough to watch football in the 70s ;)). That said if we are playing a team like KC, and we’re down late in the game, do you trust this D to get a stop? I don’t. No, probably not. But there isn't a defense in the NFL I would trust in that situation because the NFL doesn't want a stop there. It wants a score. Watch the end of that Raiders and Chargers game. The game is heavily slanted in favour of offense now. If you are one score up against a top 10 Quarterback with 2 minutes to play and they have the ball you lose about 90% of the time. That is the league. 1 Quote
