Charles Romes Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Number 5 of 223 graded corners by PFF. What would the chiefs be saying if they lost mcDuffy. Quote

haroldwaide Posted January 27 Posted January 27 To get two concussions in the s pi and if a week is alarming. Benford needs to seriously consider his future health and life after football. My first ever bold prediction is that he walks away and doesn't play again. Quote
MikePJ76 Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Benford and Rapp. Two years in a row rapp and a starting corner were out vs KC in the playoffs. What is it now 4 straight years our number 1 corner was out in the playoffs? That is just bad luck. BTW I really hope benford is ok today. Quote
Dan Darragh Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Thinking about Benford getting his second concussion in a week made me feel sick. 2 Quote

Couple him with Damar on the field?? What did anyone expect. Rapp and Benford need to stay. Douglas didn’t look great but still believe he can be good. Damar can hit the bricks also…done with him. Need a new starting safety and better backups. Problem is you need a quality pass rush to give the dbacks a chance. Don’t get that from our line. Expand That entire unit couldn't have tackled somebody on crutches. Bishop looked lost...well he was. Quote

I'm assuming there's some leeway left for teams to push important guys through. We've seen way too many sketchy things go on with protocol and the blue tent Quote

How much worse could he possibly have been?? Thought he’s played pretty well. Expand Ingram played as the 6th DB or 3rd safety in Bills D this year. He replaced Cam Lewis in that role when Lewis was hurt or playing S. Ingram is more of a slot CB or S. Not sure they played him outside even unless in mop up part of games 1 Quote

Don't play him in the big game if he hasn't gotten reps during the year. They squandered this pick. This guy has actually played well in prior playoff appearances. And playing five yards off the line isn't this guy's game -- kind of a head scratcher when we were playing man for most of the night. Quote

Expand He should have gotten more playing time over Hamlin in the regular season. Everybody knows how limited of an athlete Hamlin is. He’s not the future but McD is so conservative about mistakes that it takes 3-4 years for our rookies to develop, particularly on defense. Quote

Expand True and he is supposed to be a better man CB vs zone and sorry to say he didn't display that on Sunday. He's a bust flat out granted Benford who was taken in the same draft looks like a steal so they kind of balance each other out in that regard. Quote

Mr. WEO Posted January 28 Posted January 28 passing D was always mediocre. With Benford, the bills gave up 86 points and over 1000 yards to LA and Detroit in December. He wouldn't be a game changer in that KC game. Quote
