Kudos to Leslie Frazier and his staff

Edmunds haters getting a first hand look at the defense without him. Poyer has been the most important piece as we've lost every game without him. But either Edmunds or Milano has to be next on that list. When either is out it's noticeable

Rousseau's missed two games, Edmunds has missed two games. 

Phillips missed games so has ED..

Beginning of season: “Bills roster is so good that our backups could start on many teams”

 

Now:  “Don’t blame Frazier because the Bills give up 3rd and 20 and 4th and 18 like their candy on Halloween - the backups are playing!”

I get what you are saying BUT...  missing one or two guys and plugging them in would have less of an effect...  we have been pretty much without our entire starting backfield (poyer while playing is not 100%) plugging 4 new guys into any position group and I guarantee it's not going to perform well.

Couldn't agree more OP.  We all saw how the defense played at the start of the season when healthy.  The parade of defensive injuries kicked off in Week 1 with Oliver getting hurt and it hasn't stopped yet.  The defense has been forced to play practice squad elevations some weeks with key players in and out of the lineup constantly.

 

The fact that we are sitting here at 8-3 is incredible.  I hope we can finally get the defense healthy for the playoff stretch and bring back the roster that throttled the Rams, Titans and Chiefs. 

 

I hope the people advocating for Frazier to be fired are trolls.  If not I think they need to lay off the egg nog.

I agree!  A week ago I tried to summarize the DB situation this year in a couple sentences and just ended confusing myself and others.

Aaron Rogers and Kirk Cousins are back-up grade QBs? 🙄

 

Rogers has been mediocre and no receiving core this year and everyone knows when push comes to shove Cousins get's you nowhere (except vs. the Bills)

They cost us the Super Bowl title last year. I still remember the 13 ***** seconds. Josh freaking Allen's MVP performance against KC was wasted and never to be remembered again.

 

This again.  So I don't remember 13 seconds happening the Super Bowl last year...I could swear it happened in the divisional round.  So many assume that the Bills would have just waltz to a SB title last year had they held on in KC.  We could have very well lost to the Bengals OR the Rams.  Nothing is guaranteed.

Sorry can't agree too many 3rd and forevers converted. The the d line rotation is baffling. Your reward for a good play is to come out and sit. One play we destroy the OL the next no penetration. Some players need to get on a roll to dominate and coming in and out isn't how to make that happen. That said go bills

I believe as of the Browns game, we were no.2 in the league in allowing the longest drives. Refusing to blitz is maddening. Hopefully after McD's convo with Frazier on the sideline during the Browns game things will change in terms of pass rush. Having starters out makes an extra rusher a no brainer.

Keep thinking to yourself that. But the Bills had the easiest path to the SB. Would have home field in the AFCCG and Allen was healthy. Most likely a favorite to win the SB if they advanced.

I have more issues with our training staff. The amount of players going down is absurd.

Ok will do.  You go ahead and keep being miserable.  Why do you even bother following the team?
