I agree with you, but if there's an answer for Kansas City nobody's really seen it yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOVEMESOMEBILLS Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 I'll answer this in 2 words.....Tre White. That's what we were lacking yesterday. If he was healthy we would've won by double digits yesterday. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver,Phillips,singletary, special shout-out to Dane Jackson holding down cb2 as a 7th round pick, Knox, Dawkins, Taron Johnson, Milano.

Dr.Sack Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Obviously they need a guy who can create constant pass rush pressure that requires a double team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_In_NH Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Its not the players, the reason the Bills lost was the playcalling with 13 seconds left. This game is squarely on whoever called that prevent defense or whatever you call it to literally GIVE them the FG attempt. Just like Tennessee lost squarely because of their awful QB. They did so much right, this was the game they needed to get by and in the end, it was a strategic blunder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tre's injury made all the CBs move up a spot. Forcing Levi to become CB #1, Dane CB #2 and so on. The injury put several players out of place. I think it also limited what the coaches could do with Poyer and Hyde as far as moving them around trying to disguise coverages and such. Like when we played them in week 5. Instead they played more of a vanilla defense so they could provide more support to the DBs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this cuz it seems when we face an inferior team, be it poor line or QB, we abuse them, indicated by our sterling statistical rankings over the season. However, when we face a good offense, whether they're good at throwing or run, it seems that we crap the bed. Related to this, I'll say that I'm surprisingly okay w/ today's outcome - not depressed & just acknowledge that we were beaten by a superior team. But what really galls me is that we let them drive the length of the field in 13 SECONDS for the tying FG! How? Why? Anyway, ignore that 2nd thought, that's just me venting. Whaddaya think of the 1st part? Well if we’re ok vs crap and crap vs better we’re a mediocre defensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Williams Available Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 We’re lacking an elite player and emotional leader/captain—Josh’s equivalent on D. The current captain of the D is neither. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TampaBillsJunkie Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 6 hours ago, Bruffalo said: Part of the problem is our young guys are just stuck in this rotation and not getting as many valuable developmental snaps. Rousseau is probably going to continue to develop, from what you see of him so far it's a good sign. Epenesa is a question mark still. I'm so tired of seeing Addison just whiff on the field. Maybe he had it a few seasons ago but the athleticism is waning and his mindset of how to play the position hasn't changed. Hughes is great at getting pressure, but pressure doesn't mean anything against a QB like Mahomes, who thrives out of structure. After how this season is gone I'm not even sure Star really wants to still play football. Seems like he's going out of his way to not be on the field as much as possible. I understand it, god knows I've phoned it in at work just to collect the checks. It's a disappointment though. I hope Epenesa becomes the Knox of the defense. 2 years to get it dialed in then BAM! Groot and Boogie need to continue to develop. Harry and Oliver need to keep getting better and stay healthy. Star, Butler, Addison and Hughes have reached the finish line here. Go out and bring in a game changer at DE and a big bodied DT that can eat up the middle. Then find a MLB that has instinct and let Edmonds walk if he thinks he's getting a payday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmel Corn Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 We lost to an elite offense with a quarterback that is accurate and as elusive to tackle as Barry Sanders. We still lack a pass rush to pressure him and a solid MLB who can read and cover. Our secondary is above average, but was simply overwhelmed because KC has too many weapons and not enough productivity out of the front 7. Until we can get more "elite" level talent in the front 7, we'll struggle against top tier offenses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not understanding that all you needed to do was mug their wide receivers and tight end with 13 seconds left shows a lack of understanding the game. Lets face it, these guys aren't that smart. it was the easiest victory to seal and they blew it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 I’m excited for how with the addition of Elam as a #2 (or Dane) and a completely revamped defensive line that should penetrate will do nothing more than make our secondary look even better. Sal was talking yesterday we may employ some man coverage a little more than in the past as we have the horses up front to do it. Should be exciting and as Kramer says.. Sorry, I’ve been on a Seinfeld ended at the gym as I never watched the reruns, so haven’t seen the shows since they first aired. I forgot how darn funny they were, so I look like an idiot each morning on the stairclimber (laughing out loud). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
