Bills scored more points than any other team this season..

The irony of it all is that they just needed one more TD to make the Super Bowl.

 

(or one more stop, but still.)

The Offense was a blast to watch last season ! One player could take it up another level I bet 
Its the Defense that needs focus and effort.

 

Come on D....it's your time to step up and do your part...come on Brandon, nail these defensive picks...BPA

Unfortunately McBeane doesn’t know how to build a d line…oh well, I’ve made my peace with it…

This is a very interesting take.  Is it the drafting of talent or the coaching?  There is some talent there but doesn't seem to have consistency.  Rousseau, Epenesa and Oliver show flashes of dominance but they don't show up every week.  They have only one coach on the line and he doesn't have a lot of experience on the pro level.  I think a Kromer-type hire who knows how to sculpt the offensive line and knows what player he is looking for will help a lot.  I think he is integral in Torrence being a beast and the maturation of Spencer Brown.  Maybe this is what this Ryan Nielsen hire is about because he has a lot of experience on the line. Reading some about Nielsen is very interesting and might be a highly underrated hire and not to change philosophy as it is his ability to coach a dline https://www.jaguars.com/news/six-things-jaguars-fans-should-know-about-their-defensive-coordinator-ryan-nielsen

Yeah , that scoring title will make for a great parade and will be talked about for years , especially against the great competition in our division. Which part of the eagles squad played a bigger role in their victory,,,the d with a score , 2 picks , 6 sacks , about a 45% pressure rate , controlling the Top ,limiting Kelce , holding KC to 6 points till garbage time , or,,,,hurts playing pretty well , saquan playing ok, their wr playing very well , or,, special teams?   
 

Just saying , we could score till we started faltering in the last two playoff games ( really we got lucky a dropped pass let us beat the ravens. If we didn’t score in reg , we have never won in ot , so a defensive stand would have been required and that was very unlikely). , 
 

Our d has been our downfall every year ,

 

Yep, when you start breaking down the Eagles season in comparison to Buffalo, you see they lost or squeaked by some lousy teams in low scoring games.  The Bills O needs to be competent, and it will be as long as Allen is the QB here.   But we need to build a team here with some very good D, not just relying on takeaways.  That's way too random to count on every season.  Bills D needs to be top 5 in stopping 3rd down conversions....not last.

Highest scoring team, but not scoring enough
