Nice article appreciate that I bookmarked it. I like Linderbaum as well, thing is didn't we just lock up Morse for two more years? I realize Linderbaum can move but the article says it wouldn't make much sense, but can you imagine if we had 3 Incognitions starting on the OL? I loved Richies tenacity on the field! Also do think they have to consider him if he falls, those type of lineman might only come along what every 5-10 years? I will be more interested to see what Gunnerbill and other draft guys think of him as a fit for Buffalo.

I am kind of excited to see the run game with Saffold added to the mix, they now have two very physical and scrappy guys on the OL

Cornhole and duck, duck,goose.

Possibly alot if it, but it proves he is a very good receiving back and will be a nice outlet for Josh and another possible weapon.

I never said the defense was bad, only they benefited from a weak schedule and played a bunch of inferior Qb's. But I understand alot of teams did, the defense was trash the last two playoffs against Mahomes and company I understand they are very good, but other defenses have been successful against him. I am hoping Frazier/Mcdermott figure out what we need to do. Hoping next year obviously the front 4 can tackle him when they pressure him or schematically we change something up.

Not exactly a pleasure conversating with you as well.

All defenses try an disguise coverages, how does that translate to an aggressive defense? Did you think they were aggressive against KC? It is a lot easier being aggressive against weaker qbs, maybe against good and we need to change things that aren't working. We were much better against Brady the second half but in OT just like Machines we got carved, maybe they went to conservative, it is a balancing act.

I think it maybe the way that Leslie is calling the defense, it seems way to conservative at times and the real good Qbs and typically pick it apart. We have had non number one defenses in that past that shut down top qbs, Schwartz defense was an example of this, and I understand we don't have the same personnel. Maybe being more aggressive with blitzes, or not playing 20 yards down the field and giving up easy 18-20 yard passes would've helped to a team that had all three timeouts, once again too conservative IMO.

Where have I ever said the guy is below averavage? I think he is average or slightly above, but he is in no way worth the money somebody is going to pay him and I just hope its not the Bills but fear it will be. I also understand that he has more responsibillity than Klein wise guy, but alot of Linebackers do and they have no problem FLYING around and making game changing plays. Tremaine looks like he's always thinking not reacting, is that the scheme doing that to him Timmy? Or is it below average instincts? I also dont think everyone less than Kuechly is garbage, I think Timmy needs to stop pedaling BS though.

These takes are are opinions, and they are terrible if you don't agree with them? The defense struggles with teams that run the ball and or have a big physical line, and and that can pick the zone apart (high level qbs) it has happened numerous times, how can it be denied? We played a very weak cast of QBs this year, thus the numbers were inflated. I think our defense is a better defense than the Bengals but, pass rush is either not consistent or we have none, and in two straight win or go home games against the chiefs we have been dismantled but yet the Bengals defense got it done.What are we lacking please explain it to me, we are the number 1 defense? I understand the Tredavious loss hurts, but we had no passes defended in the whole game. I think we have good players on the defense but maybe it gets too conservative at times?

Pro bowls now days are a joke just like the pro bowl game, you can be a 3 rd or 4th alternate and be a pro bowler. Poyer and Hyde made the 1st and second team Ap all pro team but weren't pro bowlers, kinda hard to understand. I really like our defense, but anyone with the lightest hint of football knowledge will admit the #1 ranking was a sham, we played such a horrid QB lineup this year and the top Qbs pick apart our defense like it's child's play. Alot if people here know the intricacies of the game more than me I will admit, but I played the linebacker position for a number of years and have watched a ton of football and the guy doesn't pass the eye test with me. Klein gets beat his fair share when inserted as a pass defender, but looks so much better playing the position in my eyes, you at least see him flying to the ball making plays like a linebacker suppose to, I don't see that much at all with Tremaine.

I don't think he's better than Millano, but that may just be my opinion.

The defense last year certainly wasn't a top ten defense, and the defense this year was a bit overated as stated. ScHwartz is a great coordinator, better than Frazier IMO but he does run a defense that is totally different.

Very sorry for your loss, my thoughts are with you and your family.

Go back and look at the qbs we faced this year, that is a huge reason. Think about the games the defense was exposed and how badly it was exposed, we play a defense where a team that has a good/great QB can expose it easily and it has happened multiple times and I'm not even mentioning the running teams. It is to freaking conservative, KC ripped this defense all night and no adjustments were made. The coaching pissed away a game this weekend in a year to me that seems a super bowl would've been more attainable that is has been in years. A decent QB can pick this team apart.

Have you.seen the guy run? He's of the most upright runners I think I've ever seen, he may be fast but doesn't seem quick from what I have seen. McKenzie is a very quick guy with the ball in his hands from what I have seen from Stephenson he is not and takes awhile to build up speed.

Was hoping Frazier would leave and we'd get 2 thirds, but who the hells taking him after that debacle. That defense was horrible.

I see your point as well, I also had him fantasy. The inconsistencies in fantasy sucked (thank god I had Kupp), but I wish Dallas had less options and Dak didn't spread the ball out so much as I think his numbers would be quite a bit better.

Not just a number standpoint, Lamb is just alot more explosive IMO. Alot of his inconsistencies may be due to the fact that Dallas has so many options when you figure in Schultz emerging this year, Pollard out of the backfield, Cedric Wilson has been really good as well, in 2-3 games this year.

I'd take Lamb then Higgins everyday of the week over Pittman at this point, But they are still only two years in, but that's just my opinion I guess.

No Spiel man was an inside backer, god I wish we would have somehow drafted him, he was something else. Cowart was a stud a shame he got hurt.and wasn't the same after. Kiko looked great his rookie year and wouldn't call him a bust.

Was editing when you responded, Spielman, could add a pre injured Cowart as.well. The whole London atruggled.vs the run or made tackles 15 yards down the field was overblown in my opinion, at least he made them. Daryl was an outside linebacker though and Maddox was in the middle right?

Conlan, Fletcher, Spielman, and Cowart (pre Injury) disagree with you.

I don't think he's as good in coverage as he is given credit for, but I respect your difference of opinion. I have no idea honestly but when a guy is an alternate in a pro bowl it is kind of watered down, they sometimes go 3-4 deep to name a pro bowler. The thing that gets me is it seems like every year a so called expert thinks he is going to finally fulfill his potential. I am starting to think it is just that potential he will never capitalize on, I figured since he came in so young he may fill out a bit but the eye test says he hasn't.

I honestly don't see him look like an all pro much and hardly ever makes game changing plays, Darius Leonard is an example of that and if you look at his stats right next to Edmunds it is even more apparent.
