Ethan in Cleveland Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 He played well the last time he was a Bill but McD kept starting PED Murphy over him. Murphy went from starter with Bills to out of the league. That said Lawson didn't do much with Dolphins and Jets. If he, Basham, and Epenesa can at least hold their own, Rousseau and Oliver should be able to generate some pass rush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wppete Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 I think Shaw will capitalize on this opportunity. He will step up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brand J Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Read in The Athletic that Rousseau played 27 of the first 29 snaps against the Pats and Lawson played 26 of the first 29. Just incredibly lopsided numbers given our want for a heavy rotation and goes to show what the staff thinks of AJE and Basham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanvh2o Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Well. Shaq Lawson has been playing well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norcalbillsfan Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 I am extremely happy we signed lawson. He plays the run very well, and year after year seems to be lamar Jackson's kryptonite. The bills are still a strong superbowl contender with him filling in for von. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was always good at defending the run and a pedestrian pass rusher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balln Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 He’s a JAG player. He’s best at setting the edge / run defender. That’s fine and well. But in this league - you need to get the qb to the ground. He has 1 sack in one game. And a half sack in another. That’s it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but could also point to them wanting fresh guys going later in the game against tired olinemen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you ever wonder why? I often watch games with my brother, a former college QB. For 3 years now, he has pointed out how Epenesa is always out of position. The Bills coaching staff is apparently seeing the same thing. He plays in pass rush situations because he can create pressure. As @JayBaller10 said earlier Shaq & Groot played 53 of the first 58 snaps vs. New England. That should tell you who the coaching staff trusts. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T master Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 I think just from seeing what Shaq & Phiiips have done since coming back that some players just fit in certain schemes better than others and can play to their personal strengths more in these schemes . Then you add if they like their coaches & they come across with a good relationship with these players they will as they say run through a wall for them it all adds to good out put & i think given what the Bills have in both areas that could be a part of why these guys seem to play better & have better out put here than on other teams they have played for .

Fixxxer Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Shaq had a great game today. The way he closed in on that sack, was perfect, he didn't hesitate and went straight for the tackle. Another thing, the DL has been well coached to hit the QB and then roll out so they don't land on the QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloRebound Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 He really brings something to the table this defense was lacking the last couple years. Stout against the run, pushes the pocket and maintains contain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
