Cooper pretty obviously doesn’t want to play football anymore. It was fairly obvious last year. Which is a damn shame. A healthy and motivated Cooper could have put us in the Super Bowl.

On Joe Marino podcast today the secondary play was discussed in depth. Conclusion: Tre White is doing about what he's capable of and it's not good enough. Cole Bishop is doing about what we could hope for at this point. And, Benford, Rapp and Taron have performed well below what was expected. Combined with a decent pass rush=abysmal performance by secondary. We've avoided the big play because teams have run on us and we play extra deep due to fear.

This place is always bad after a loss. But this one was especially hard because of who it was to. It also didn't help that Diggs was the one who did the damage. Most of us have been waiting for the Bills to suck again for the past 6 years, and losing to the Patriots with 3 turnovers takes us right back to 2012. Losing to the Pats just feels like a regression to the mean. Those feelings will never go away unless the Bills win a Super Bowl. For what it's worth, my most depressing theory is that the killer wasn't 13 seconds. It was being unprepared to play in the 2020/2021 AFC Championship game. We were the surprise team of the season and one win from the Super Bowl. Then they came out and looked like they didn't belong. We've been chasing that tail ever sense.

Ignoring whether or not you thought of it what do you think would happen if Keon Coleman suddenly played like a top ten WR that could punish teams deep? no worthy is too small or legette or DK debate… simply Keon steps in and plays like an elite wr. does our run game improve? does our defense look better with a lead?

Ray Davis was the 128th pick in the NFL Draft - drafted in the 4th round. It is kind of insane to think that he is going to account for 30% of snaps at where he was drafted unless we caught lightning in a bottle.

Maybe, but personally the thought “if only our passing game had been better” never crossed my mind after losing the AFCCG last year.

Pretty sure a standard domestic beer was $12 last season, so $18 for a 24oz isn't too bad of a deal.

For sure! They kept safeties over the top. They spent time preparing for him, etc.. I’m by no means saying he was a dynamic player here. All that was said is that the passing game and scoring was much better with him than without? Why? Who knows but his presence almost certainly played a role.

Beautiful.

I think a lot of it is scheme. The secondary still isn’t getting beat deep very often cause they’re still playing soft coverage as if our pass rush is still not good, allowing a ton of short easy completions. Now that the pass rush is much better they should be playing more aggressive coverage because the DL is heating up QBs and forcing them to get the ball out quicker. Our coverage and pass rush are just not complimentary at all.

The average team has two receivers in the top 64. We have 3, almost 4... Everybody eats.

Only one QB had a big passing day against us. The problem is that one of them did it in the last game, so it feels like everyone has been carving us up.

We played our worst game of the season, turned the ball over 3x, and faced some....what shall we call it...."overactive officiating?" One less turnover, or a different ref crew - and it's a good bet we're the last undefeated team in the league. I feel like we need an AR "R-E-L-A-X" or something. We have some needs for sure, but we also have some guys coming back, and 2 guys coming who haven't even seen the field yet. I'd agree that the secondary is a concern right NOW, but either Hairston or Strong back will help quite a bit. And I expect a move or 2 by the deadline. But it's not like we're in a dire situation here. Remember KC's season last year? They won something like 11 games by a play or 2. There was a ton of hand-wringing there, and they still made it to the SB. I still think this is the best team in the AFC, by a somewhat comfortable margin.

and at this point Strong and even Ingram may be better than White. Disappointed that we have not seen much of Palmer after 5 weeks.

Look here at all the lies WaPo documented that Trump said! 😂 😂 Friggin Quack!!

i think we should make "a Jerry Jones Thumbs Up" a thing.

It's lazy....it's hubris...there is a level of arrogance dismissing other possibly more talented players, in order to retread players only because they know your system. I've always hated this tactic but it’s just one of McD's flaws. As a DC, yes....as a HC, oh hell no.

we have the best car at the track maybe the best driver in the history of racing and our lack of a WR1 is a resistor plate ensuring that we can’t pull away from the pack there is a chance that Keon Coleman becoming a number 1 or not during this rookie contract will be the difference between multiple rings vs never reaching the big gene If nothing else, I think opposing teams had to respect his nameplate and any given week could click also think it sent a message to the team about expectations

As with many of these clips, there’s quite a bit more to the story. You should look it up and get back to the group with your update. It will make you appear honest.

Boy our secondary has been abysmal.

Ravens sure did when Johnson stepped in front of the TE and took it to the house a couple of years ago. the same was said about Bernard’s interception a few games ago. He was not supposed to be there.

Add me to the group that wants to see Gore out there. He showed flashes in preseason and I think he's earned the opportunity to get called up for a game.

If they are not available, maybe one of their parents can fill in?

Because people will label DTs as a certain technique based on their play style against the run even though the different “techniques” are just where they lineup. Deone is more of a penetration style player so he’ll get called a 3T even though he lines up mostly at 1T. Just like Ed mostly lines up at 3T but he’s often the one dropping his knee against a double team.
