It's not just this game, but there have been many this year that he gives up a big play.

he's one of our best on defense

Do you know how many game changing plays Taron Johnson has made for the team this year? Do you realize how difficult of a position it is that he plays? He has to be a run stuffer and a coverage expert. He has to be a linebacker and a corner at the same time. He has to cover all over the field.

 

Yeah, he is going to give up plays sometimes. That's how it is. And when you are playing on an ice field, that puts defenders at a disadvantage reacting to receivers.

 

Your post just shows a supreme lack of understanding about his role and what he is asked to do. He has the hardest job on the defense and it isn't even close. An impossible job, really, which is why he will give up a play here or there throughout the course of a game.

This team will never win anything until they get rid of Taron Johnson and Josh Allen.

And McDermott. And Beane. And Hamlin. And Rapp. And Von Miller. And..........

Players are banged up this time of year. 

Here is my list...

EVERY PLAYER, except  Mitch Trubisky Sam Martin and Tyler Bass

I didn't say he sucks, but he was covering the late td, as well as the huge first down.

 

He is a warrior and I never doubted his work ethic.

Sounds like a guy who doesn’t watch the games much. How many receivers and backs does he chase down. He’s the most physical corner we have and has a nose for the ball. Did you see how much time Lamar had to throw in the second half? That’s why his no name receiver came open on their last drive. Andrews like Kelce find little open areas and Lamar just runs around until they come open.  We’re not playing for the AFC Championship without Johnson. Who’s next on your “major liability list” Shakir?

Yes he missed 2-3 men coverage but he is best we got in Secondary.

Johnson is being targeted.  You are correct.  He used to make those plays.  He does play a very important and difficult position but it does seem like he’s lost a step in pass coverage

This is what I was saying and it is a liability.  People act like I said to cut the man! Talk about sensitive.

Really impossible to judge anyone in our secondary since our defensive line gets no pressure and our strategy is to let the opposing offense do whatever they like and hope turnovers appear out of thin air, which, to be fair, they did yesterday.

Garbage.  Turn in your internet credentials you’re done.

You're an Idiot

 

Officially

 

Someone should send you a damned tshirt.

 

The man is literally recognized as one of, if not THE best nickel corners in the league.

He's also Got that Dawg in him.  The man LITERALLY dislocated his shoulder on a play during the game, had it reduced on the sideline, and went back in the game.

 

 

 

[jaybeezee]

Watch the all 22 and tell me that he wasn't the target on several crucial plays. 

[Generic_Bills_Fan]

Why do the negative posts keep getting worse the more we win 🤣 should we win the superbowl I just can’t wait for the compilation of these kind of posts haha

This wasn't an negative post! I didn't day he cost us a game, or to cut him now. I just said that he is a liability in coverage and Mahomes will target him. 

[Wayne Cubed]

He's a liability, on a few plays where he was in man coverage, on a slick snowy surface, which is an advantage to the reciever and oh yea, when the defensive line could get not pressure? Did I get that right?

Yea are aware he didn't play in the first Ravens match up and the Bills were trounced, correct?

Neither did Milano, Bernard, but what I saw was them target his area and the people he was covering more than anyone else in coverage. 

 

Again, I didn't say he was trash, I just stated that he will targeted in KC. Keep receipts if you like. Being a liability does not mean that he sucks.

 I mean…the guy was an all pro last year that frequently gets the toughest matchup on the field and is used in so many different ways.  Nickel corner is arguably the hardest position in football. He’s not getting targeted because he’s ‘bad‘

 

you replace taron with anyone else in the league outside a small handful of guys and we get worse.  If he can’t go we are in trouble

I semi agree with you. He was targeted in this game, mostly because Likely was their best option and that’s who the Bills decided to cover him with in the game. I have thought his play has slipped a bit since he was an all pro player but he is still a very good player. The Scout/Coach in me has wondered how much longer high play he has due to his body taking a lot of punishment as an undersized tackler and being asked to cover the best slot WR/TEs in the game. 
 

I have also wondered if maybe someday that Bishop develops into that guy as his college tape seemed to better fit that role than deep safety

That insult is a sort of time-honored, inside joke here.

Taron Johnson didn’t have his best game, but he was FAR from a liability. I think he will have a huge bounce back against the Chiefs. He always plays well against them. Plus, he won’t have to be as concerned about defending the run and QB scrambling like he did for Lamar. Mahomes has wheels and should always be accounted for in that department, but Lamar is perhaps the best pure runner we have ever seen at the QB position. TJ can now play his natural position next week

I don’t even think Deion Sanders in his prime could cover a player for as long as Johnson had to cover at times yesterday.
