First of all that's an odd way of putting it because there are only 2 starting LBs on the Bills. Second, Milano factually played fewer snaps (35 snaps) than Bernard (37 snaps) Expand I'm confused. Isn't that what he said? Bernard played the most snaps of the starting linebackers Quote

Expand Not only is Dorian Williams already better than Edmunds, id argue buffalo joe is probably better or going to be better too. Same with Ulofoshio. The Edmunds truthers will quadruple down and say Edmunds was better than Klein. He wasn't I hated the pick but I understand the upside... Beane was thinking of a game wrecking MLB. A modern takeo spikes with even more size and length Turns out he was just a bigger version of baylon Spector Bust Edited January 1 by Kelly to Allen 1 Quote

The players they have are good but are too small and keep getting hurt. Just reference what happened vs KC in the playoffs last year snd this trend is continuing. Danny Stuntsman from Oklahoma would be perfect for them. I’m actually surprised that they do as well as they do vs the run. It’s going to be a big issue in the playoffs. Anyway just my opinion. Go Bills!!!!! Expand 100%. I was an Edmunds hater, but the guy was available all the time, so sick of seeing Baylon Spector even active on game day. 1 Quote

I was thinking something last game and knowing this coach….I know better than to assume he has the brain to understand this. I don’t want to lose Bernard, I WANT us to play 3 LBs on the field. We never come out of nickel. It’s infuriating. BECAUSE we don’t…I’d really like to see what our defense looked like with 58 and 42 on the field. Those guys are bigger and more physical. And maybe we don’t get run all over. I want 3, 58/43 and 42 out there…but since we can’t ever come off this nickel. I selfishly would like to see what that looks like. I also know McDermott. And this idiot would play a totally different guy at MLB if Bernard was out. Just like last year against KC. If Bernard was out. I’d love to see what Milano and Dorian looked like together. Fast physical hair on fire playmakers Expand On the first defensive series against Detroit, Bernard, Milano, and Dorian Williams were on the field on 2nd down. The play was a run to Montgomery that went for little gain. I think they didn't again on the 2nd defensive series. After that, injuries started piling up and so I don't think they went back to it. I think there is some interest in having Bernard, Milano, and Williams in against certain looks. On 1/1/2025 at 11:51 PM, DCofNC said: 100%.

Big Turk Posted January 2 Posted January 2 Here we go again with this BS...was injured during the WC game against Pittsburgh and was out for the KC game which killed us.

Expand oh it’s more than just Bernard, the continued drafting of guys who are “bulked up” to 225 for the combine to play LB is just not working in general. Milano, Williams, Bernard, Spector all missed time this year. I know they are fantastic athletes, but they also get crushed too often by linemen. 1 Quote

Milano just came back off injury, Williams had an elbow he’s dealing with, now this with Bernard.. Undersized LB’s getting pummeled game in/game out due to undersized DT’s seems to be a common culprit for the issues we’ve been facing. Expand 100% Quote

He’s going to back for the playoffs and if you watched the video McDermott stopped himself from saying he’d be available to play Sunday if they needed him. He’s good folx Quote
