    I watched the all22 last night. Man oh man he was brutal. BRU.TAL. The Seahawks scoring drive in the second quarter they just went at Williams repeatedly. Four of the plays in that drive were at him and they went for a total of 47 yards. He got washed out on a screen pass to Walker for 5. Completely bit on a fake reverse and was out of his zone which allowed a pass to Bobo for 15. Was way too deep in his zone for no obvious reason and then attacked the runner square on and got made to look silly as Walker zoomed past him down the sideline for 17 and finally was way too deep in zone again for a screen to JSN for 10 that got Seattle inside the 5. 

     

    His worst game of the season BY FAR. We should remember that progress with young players, especially linebackers where play recognition and instinct are big, is not always linear. But there is no way to my mind that you keep him on the field if you have Milano healthy and ready to play. 

     

     

    Honestly, if Milano is healthy I just don't think there is any way you can trot Williams out there instead of him. Maybe Milano gets on the field and isn't Milano and you have to go back to Williams. But Williams is still being worked by misdirection drive in and drive out and I just don't think the Bills can afford to roll with a guy who so often just looks like he doesn't know where he should be. 

    Amazing. I said the same thing about him for weeks. He’s a backup. He’s grading out as a backup. He’s had flashes. And is at least playable out on the field for long stretches. So he’s a bit better than last year. 
     

    He was billed as long arms / good tackler and has speed. But he sure doesn’t make the open field tackles or stay w long crossers or get out to make open field tackles in space….

     

    then I thought - maybe they could use him as a qb spy. Nope. 
     

    hes only flashed while shooting gaps in the run game

    Bills -5.5 at home seems like a rat line…should be at least -7.5

    Inconceivable. Other than. “Division game” 

     

    “2nd meeting” 

     

    usually the answer lies in Dvoa. Let me deep dive 

     

    edit :

     

    dvoa 

    overall buf tied for 4th w kc (never seen a tie) vs Mia 29

     

    off buf is 2nd (1st bal) vs Mia 29

     

    Def buf is 7th vs Mia 21 

     

     

    line makes no sense. Altho Mia offense # is off bc tua been out for so long

    The amount of motions I’ve seen teams use, specifically those who have/had Tyreek Hill is insane. Not once have I seen Hill ever stop for a full second before the snap. 
    Same with Kupp that SB year for Rams. He was always motioned into the slot or under the stack and never set for a full second. 
     

    wtf is this guy on about lol

    Same. I know the made …. Wait for it….. a POINT OF EMPHASIS on the motions where the guys were running forward at the snap of the ball. The STOP and wait a full second has never been a thing. U til now

    Groot wins on the left side. Solomon has shown some ability to win quickly. Ed wins vs. single coverage. And yes, Von. 

     

    Bet we dial up better blitzes when Milano comes back. 

     

    The key to pass rush under McD has always been about having waves of fresh bodies. We haven't had that yet this year. 

    Sorry don’t see immediate wins / gotta have it get to the QB rushes - with anyone but Von

    Achane is pretty much the only consistent performer on that offense. As far as their defense, I've said all along, their defense has always been substandard at best. Achane and Mostert will get some yards, but I think Cook and Davis will get more

    If Seiler and holland out - should be a cake walk

    The backup is the only guy to start every game.  He needs to develop more but his traits will be needed to win in January.   

    Yes well the coaches take him off the field for one of the UB backups DBs for passing 3rd downs. So not developing there

    Other than CB, the last thing I'm worried about with our D is our pass rush. We have good pass rushers, just need them to all play. 

     

    Our size defending bigger teams is another story. 

    Only

    one that WINS immediately

    is Von. And it’s usually

    against a relatively immobile QB. Otherwise they need really

    good coverage and time for the rush to grind its way there.

     

    only time we blitz is -

    these horrible delayed zone blitzes with safeties (cam or Hamlin) that are just awful. And they drop

    groot or

    No linebaker is a 100% tackle percent.  Games without Benard I see him out of position more.  Williams has been the constant at linebaker all year.  No Milano, no Benard.  Williams overall play has been a positive not a negative to the defense.  Better than Dodson last season imo.  

    The only

    reason he’s a constant - is because he’s a backup. And the starting linebackers are injured

  9. 2 minutes ago, Mat68 said:

    He does much better with Benard setting the table for him.   Big motions and ball fakes move him.  Mind you this affects all linebakers to some degree.  More playing time will help with that.  See ball get ball big he is very good.  Doen’t miss too many tackles. 

    He absolutely missed tackles. He’s not

    great in open field and gets beat with speed to the outside

    if you can say the Bills haven't beat anyone you can say the Lions haven't either. The Vikings are playing over their weight and won't finish as strong as they started. Dallas is just Dallas.

     

    The Lions are probably the best team in football but this weekend is the most important game of their season thus far.

    A lot Of dome games too. Goff is absurdly worse in outdoor / bad weather games

    These players were OUT for Miami against Arizona:
     

    Kader Kohou, DB

    Storm Duck, DB

    Zach Sieler, DT

     

    Bradley Chubb is still on the PUP and Jalen Phillips is out for the season with a torn ACL. Braxton Barrios is also on the IR 
     

    Jevon Holland sustained a knee injury against Arizona. McDaniel said he hasn’t been ruled out yet, but is week-to-week. 
     

    Kohou, Phillips, Sieler and Holland are technically all starters who have played significant snaps for Miami, including during our Week 2 matchup. 

    If Sieler (he’s their Sneakily best defender.) and holland out. Bills O gonna roll. Literally.

    Za'Darius Smith would be a good add for us.  I could see him even playing inside on 3rd downs 

    Clowney, I'm open to that as well due to his run stopping ability.


    However....Beane may not view Edge as a need.

    Von's pressure rate was elite prior to suspension 
     

     

    Geez almost caught his own deflection

    That was DPI.  This whole tangled legs stuff makes sense when shadowing a route… but the safety initiated all of the contact with the WR

    He two hand touched / pressed on his back . Early. Yes his legs were tangled. But that wasn’t all. What a cop out

    yea the watson contract is an all timer and much worse.  

    Yea BUT Watson gave no evidence he’d be this bad. He was an almost mvp in Houston . It’s hindsight that’s it’s the worst. And it is
     

    But you KNEW what you were getting w Dak

  15. I thought I thought I thought for sure. Jerry was gonna let this season ride. Let McCarthy play it out. NOT extend Dak. NOT extend ceedee. Bc you know. They’ve had 2-3 years and it’s clearly not good enough. But he f’d it up. Listened to the fan boys and signed mediocre / qb purgatory Dak. And WR12-20 in the nfl as wr 1-2 

     

    the shrewd and right move was to clean house. Of all 3. Let’s the jags and panthers sign them . Get comp picks and have a bad season. And get qb. Nope. PURGATORY FOR YOU DAL/ JERRY!!!
