boyst Posted October 1 Posted October 1 27 minutes ago, Mango said: I like DW because his game speed is fast and he is aggressive. He has a tendency to overcommit, leaving him out of position at times, especially in zone. It feels like if he can keep that speed up, but slow down the game a little bit he could be a good piece to the LB corp and allow us to do more 3LB sets with Milano, Bernard, and Williams. He is always 5° off if that makes sense. He is quick but never quite right when he gets there. He makes the hit if it's available. He doesn't seem to have the intuition needed in this system. 2 Quote

I feel like our ends and oliver are going to hit stroud a bunch sunday. He stands there forever with the ball. I wouldn't be surprised if they have 3 or more sacks. 1 Quote

We do put him on the PS and make him active at same time as Bass next 3 games, if Bass misses any kicks put the new guy in and if he doesn't miss keep him. If he misses cut him and keep Bass. If needed rinse and repeat with another kicker until find one. Quote
Generic_Bills_Fan Posted October 1 Posted October 1 (edited) 4 hours ago, uninja said: Bills defense under McDermott has historically defended the run poorly. It’s a glaring weakness in the scheme. It’s kind of tough to gauge…how much of it is running because scared to pass vs running because it’s easy. Since 2019 we’ve been bottom half of the league in rushing yards allowed per game zero times. Last year we were 15th and the year before we were 5th. This year it’s too early to tell there have been a few short stretches of terrible run defense for sure though. I feel like most seasons we have a game or two where the defense gets steamrolled and we all panic haha going back earlier than 2019 we were pretty bad and average but those rosters were pretty terrible Edited October 1 by Generic_Bills_Fan 1 Quote

I'm concerned but not worried thus far as feel Bernard and Johnson should be back in next few weeks. 1 Quote

Not disagreeing about Williams... but to be fair, he did make two key plays -- the forced fumble on Lamar and the near-sack that led to the intentional grounding call -- that very much could (and indeed SHOULD) have gotten the team back into the game on Sunday night. 1 1 Quote

Kiko made a lot of key plays, too. As did numerous other players. But they do not play their position or have discipline. It shows on tape. Williams plays the position but too slow. And he often doesn't seem to be on the page as the others. Quote
I'm Spartacus Posted October 1 Posted October 1 3 hours ago, Beast said: It has to be Morrow they are cutting. He’s terrible. Yes. So what do our scouts and Beane see in these crappy veterans they sign. Is it all about signing cheap garbage, or are they lousy at player evaluation??!! Quote
freddyjj Posted October 1 Posted October 1 3 hours ago, KOKBILLS said: It's Nicholas Morrow... I was worried about him being the 3rd LB. He's a vet...But that's about it IMHO... And I'm not saying this as a homer at all, but I was REALLY hoping they would use Buffalo Joe as that 3rd LB...if they went to 3 LB's... Joe is just a MUCH better athlete, and I like his instincts vs the run... 😎 In the offseason, I noted on TBD that the Ravens and Jets games would be opportunities for McD/Babich to unleash their version of the Carolina 4-3 with 3 extremely athletic LBs in Bernard, Milano and Williams. Unfortunately, Milano's bicep injury and Bernard's Pec injury did not allow fior this vs. Ravens. Remember, Caroilina used Keuchley, Davis and Shaq Thompson in their base D. I wonder if they will going forwartd and i wonder iif they are using PS as a way for Lewis Cine to learn the Shaq Thompson role in case Milano is done due to injury or as his replacement in 1-2 years. 2 Quote

Fan in San Diego Posted October 1 Posted October 1 A week late on this signing. We needed the big bodies to stop Derrick Henry. 1 Quote
Jimmy Harris 69 Posted October 1 Posted October 1 If he can’t kick, let’s try him at back up quarterback. The Mitch is inept. Could be second coming of Jared Lorenzen. Quote
BlazinBill Posted October 1 Posted October 1 Yes the roster having 10 active defensive lineman played huge dividends this week- such a solid move- We play nickel or dime but need 10 d lineman - I'm just gonna stick to my roster in Madden Quote
