A huge reason we had the #1 pass D and he really progressed in the run game as the season went on. Going to be a cornerstone of this Defense for many many years. The great part too is the article a couple weeks ago of Kyle kind of taking him under his wing to be a leader off the field . Kyle said he saw something in the way he prepares that was beyond his years and basically is passing the torch to Tremaine to lead this defense. Hyde said around week 7-8 that this kid will have a gold jacket one day. Said his size and speed is unreal and he never makes the same mistake twice. Very high praises from some respected veterans. We're in great hands with Edmunds in the middle of the D for the next decade

Master at the vrun game , probably as good as it gets in the NFL. If they maintain an elite defense, that's a tough outing for any team . But if you're going to go on a playoff run, you're going to run into some teams where you have to pass to win. LA just did what every team did against us in 2015, ,sell out to stop run and make Taylor beat you with his arm. And Tyrods a better passer than Lamar imo.

Truly feels like something special is brewing with this team . They could realistically take off next year and be legit contenders in the AFC for a long time. How is KB still in the NFL. Such a waste

Interesting.. as someone stated , instantly reminded me of Dirk in TB as well. I think this goes very good or very bad,

Not sure if posted but Shady commenting on Quinton Nelson of Indy ,who is a BEAST , saying " I want one of those" . Can't blame him.

Agree 100%. He showed the glimpses that make him rare. He's still a very very nice chess piece to have on O

Agreed. Shady is a beast in the pass game though. Like to see him in a 1a 1b situation at RB for next couple of years. But I'm of the opinion he hasn't lost nearly as much juice as his numbers suggest

Hey I like it. Beane found Foster and McKenzie , Foster looks like he can have a huge impact in this league. McKenzie is super dangerous with the ball, is more of a Swiss army knife. Can return punts too. Starting to regain my trust in Beane and his scouts ability to find WR that will make an impact, after he bombed on the KB trade.

Haven't read through pages. Are people finally opening their eyes and seeing that Lamar is just not an NFL caliber passer? I've been saying for the last month he's basically Tyrod 2.0. Lamar the better runner, Tyrod better passer. Lamar is terrible at reading coverage and usually gives up after his first read. He's just awful as a passer overall It boggled my mind to see national journalists rank Jackson above Allen. Based mainly on his record which was all due to a great D and great scheme for the run game. Again, It just boggled my mind so many local Bill fans and national "experts were so high on the kid. I had him 5th out of the 1st rounders, behind Rosen. You run into a great defense and they eliminate the run game, make him beat you with his arm , the Ravens winning percentage goes down very Low...By far the most overrated rookie out of any position, imo.

Yeah you're 100% right. Just cause a QB is making that type of money it doesn't mean the team will suck. It does mean however , that they don't have as much flexibility in the draft and FA . Have to be smarter and more efficient with their spending. N.O has had a couple really good drafts and that's a huge reason why they have a bye this weekend

We're a few pieces from realistically being legit contenders. I feel McD and Beane both had the same vision and blueprint on how to build a long term , sustainable , winning team. They took their time , took on the dead money , lowest active roster this year, basicallysacrificed the last two years to be in this current position. 90 mil in cap , while losing no major FA, besides a 35 year old Kyle and Lorax, who we can re sign for a very reasonable contract. McDermott is a natural HC and gets so much out of his players imo. Think he'll be here a long time. I think 2019 could be the start of something special for the Bills .

Bill Obrien and Watson are criminally overrated. Bill got outcoached big time today , Colts made it look easy , on the road . Very impressive and dangerous team. Legit SB contenders. Some Homer Thoughts - If I'm a GM , I'm taking Allen over Watson. That'd get Ugly for NE!

Yeah Jerry Hughes was a beast , he was my first thought with Tre,Poyer ,Milano Hyde as close seconds. Hyde especially didn't have eye popping stats but the way he's able to disguise his coverages is a huge reason we were the best pass D by a significant margin. Him and Poyer are as good as it gets in the back end

I looked at this list , Cousins was the first QB I'd take Josh over right now and that trend continued til he pops up at 32. If I'm wrong about him having superstar potential , and it being very achievable , like next season , I've never been so wrong about a player in my life. Post injury he was significantly better though.

Great year for Gilmore Really no way to downplay it . He has always had the physical tools to be a great CB and it looks like everything fell into place this year. With that said, I'm still very happy he is not a Bill , mainly for the contract size. Very pleased with Tre,Levi and Taron going forward ,all on rookie deals.

Kid is showing clear progress and couldn't have ended the season on a better note , playing arguably his best game as a pro.

It was only in July of 2017 that we thought we'd have one of the worse secondaries in the league. Amazing work by this staff #TrustTheProcess

And Taron . That secondary is young and can grow to be super elite. Hyde/Poyer are as good a S tandem as you can get. That's how u rebuild baby

Yes!! I love the energy he brings. , He was a steal and very reliable in the rotation

Yeah we were brutal the last few years with Tyrod on 3rd and a yard or less. So refreshing to have this kid basically be automatic. I'd expect them to develop some deep shots on 3rd down and if we fail just run the sneak on 4th ,

Exactly. Which is why I never understood the McBeane hate. They essentially sacrificed this year for the long term success of the team.

Trust the process!!!

One thing I noticed since Allen has come back from injury is Buffalo being way more aggressive on 4th and 1 or less and seems everytime they just run the sneak with Allen. I can't find the exact numbers but there has been a few occasions and he has yet to be stopped. This is a very important and underrated part of his game. Just look at how much we struggled at 3rd and/or 4th and 1 last year and before the injury. Very inconsistent. Yesterday he did it again , on what was almost closer to 2 yards and easily got the first. Can Josh Allen be stopped in this situation? He looks like a cheat code in these situations , it's pretty incredible , he's automatic at such a crucial down and distance , I love it!!

He has shown it all year , he doesn't have the miles on him that a regular 35 year old would. He only started playing regularly in 2015 . Get him signed Immediately .

I'm basically a McD Homer at this point , and I'm surprised by the amount of people that were/are actually calling for his head. I've been saying he's a natural head coach , and right where he needs to be , he belongs coaching at the highest level. I'm thrilled he's in Buffalo. I envision him being here a long time. I agree he has overachieved , but most of all I love what he has instilled into this team. He has built an identity and culture and has stuck to his vision and blueprint the whole time. A perfect example was week 17 , you see Miami banged up in the secondary and those young guys came in that looked unprepared and like they didn't belong. McD has had to do alot of shuffling in the secondary , and has Undrafted rookies playing at a high level. Not missing a beat. You can see the difference right there in McD and a coach like Gase. Something special is brewing in Western New York. McBeane said from day 1 , that they want to build a team that has Long Term, Sustainable success and they have certainly set themselves up to make that achievable. We have a ton of young talent that will only get better , just look at the back 7 , I think Wallace is basically a lock to hold that #2 cb role , him,Taron,Tre, Edmunds and Milano will all be 2nd or 3rd year players and just came off a year where they were the #1 pass D by a significant margin , they're going to be deadly with more time to gel.
