That's because they spent about half the time in a 4 man line... They looked A LOT better in the 4 man look, IMO.

Let's kick Maybin to the long term developmental scrap heap. The best the Bills defense looked yesterday was when they were in a 4 man front with Kelsay-Stroud-Williams-Edwards as the DLs.

I hate to say this, but not only is Chris Kelsay going to make the team, he's going to start and he's the best pass rusher off the edge they have. His presence made an impact in this game. The Bills played a ton of 4 DL fronts, especially when the starters were in, and the pass rush was decent.

Bell is a tough dude to tackle

Steve Tasker= "best half he has ever seen the Bills play in the preseason" I started watching late, but the Colts have 21 pts and I did see Lankster roasted twice... what's he talking about? Did the defense look good?

Now if they could only block one of their defensive ends just once...

Simpson is very shifty. If he played on a team with a line he would be tough.

1st play sack... next play int?

Um. Not to good from Lankster.

Indy's starters will maul us, but their backups are pretty bad and I don't think Manning is going to play for very long so I see a close game overall although it will be an ugly 1st quarter.

Yes. I like Evans and he's a good player, but he's really a #2 receiver/ deep threat specialist. He just hasn't shown the versatility to run different types of routes, be physical or get significant YAC needed to be a star, IMO. The Bills will definitely have to add another receiver(s) who can do some of these other things to have a balanced passing game.

And what kind of car do you drive?

If it helps, here they are again. I copied them down from the original thread.

It's because he's not playing scared like Edwards. Maybe he should be given the Bills OL, but he's not. Unfortunately, he can't hit the broad side of a barn so it's of limited benefit.

This. Also, I was watching some of the Cowboy-Raider game today on NFLN and they had the Cowboys local broadcast. I thought it was less biased and much more insightful than anything that Theisman or the Redskin team did. It just goes to show that it's not the local broadcast thats the problem, it's the broadcasters.

I thought that Wilson was the backup free safety. Scott is the backup strong safety.

I thought I read that this is not a contract year for Whitner. My understanding is that he has 2 years left on his contract.

Too bad he only ran backwards.

Agree with all of this except it will take more than a couple of good games to repair the damage, if it can be done at all. Trent needs to be a backup for at least a season or two to get his mind right and then come back behind a strong OL and with a good running game to have any chance of saving his career, IMO.

A + B = D He can't deal with the pass rush. He panics and plays scared when he's under pressure. Back when the OL was respectable and the opposition was mediocre, he was ok. When that changed, things wend south. Now that the OL stinks and the rest of the league knows that he can't play against pressure, the opposition takes him apart on a regular basis.

I hope not, but I would assume 3 RBs and 2 FBs. Lynch, Jackson, Spiller, McIntyre, Ferguson. Maybe 4 RBs and 1 FB. But one of them is gone for sure.

Nothing against Spiller. I just hate having to cut Simpson and Bell while people like Chambers and Moats make the roster.

+1. Really wanted to see Brohm and Brown.

Maybin has been owned by both the Redskin 1st and 2nd stringers. He looked better against the 3rd stringers.

I'm sure that Spiller is better than he showed tonight (I hope), but I really hate having to cut Simpson and Bell. They really should've drafted at a position where they were thin- like everywhere else.
