    Nickname for our defense

    “The Bible” because the book was written on it years ago.
     

    We have watched the same game by this defense for 7 years straight. 2017 it was good. That offseason teams learned how to get to it. We have still not changed. Our coach that is only here because of defense but wins because of the offense.

     

    If we had an ounce of competence on that side of the ball, we’d have 2 rings. And it’s not the players. We have good players on defense. It’s 100% the coaching. We have 3 LBs that can run and cover and get mauled by every physical team at the point of attack. We are the one team in the league that can play a base defense every down and instead We play nickel more than anyone. We are stubbornly obsessed with doing what we want regardless of it working or not. If a good DC was here and had complete authority over the defense, we win the Super Bowl 

    It’s too early in the season for that kind of reali…… err, I mean negativity.

     

    Am I fanboying correctly?

    From a game theory, statistical, and/or probabilistic point of view, it was the right decision.  Simple math says so.

     

    From a subjective point of view, it's hard to say.  How much would've that first two-point conversion, which was likely to be converted, meant beyond the scoreboard in terms of momentum and team morale?  How much would failing the two-point conversion - which was unlikely but did happen - hurt momentum and morale?  Given the probabilities, was it worth the risk?  You decide.  But I think a lot of coaches would've made the same decision that Sean made.  

    I think you are right.

    But, what is maddening is he is conservative when he needs to let it hang out and risky when prudence might be more prudent.

    Thanks for this.  And you're exactly right. 

     

    Logically and statistically, McD made the right decision on the first two-pointer.  When it failed anyway, he was forced to go for the subsequent 2-pointers.  Each decision was rational by itself.  But we failed on each of them so hindsight says it would have been better to kick all those EPs.  

     

      A coaches job is to make the right decision at that specific moment in the game. 
       The team was reeling. We were already in “ catch-up” mode and no one should have had any expectation that our D would stop Baltimore making every point sacrosanct.

       Going for the first one down 8 points was not the right call in that game at that moment.

    Most ==> JOSH ALLEN

    I give the most credit to the failed 2 pt conversions. If not for those bad decisions the Bills would’ve been up by a point with time running down and it would’ve been our defense getting torched for a walk off game winning FG. 

    Sadly, you have a point

    Josh Allen is inevitable

    Yep. As soon as the Ravens went into prevent and the receivers had room to work Allen was unstoppable. 

     

    Imagine if we gave him receivers who got open from the start of the game. How about that as an idea? 

    This is where I do n’t know if it’s :

    Early season sloppiness ?

    Poorly schemed routes/play design ?

    The Ravens D being on fire but wearing out ?

     

    Watching Brady call those behind the LOS plays repeatedly….. against Ravens players who were closing on the receiver in nano seconds, was frustrating!

    At the end of the day, I don't really care about what happens until the playoffs because it's all meaningless.

     

    We are going to win the division by at least 3-4 games and until McDermott's D doesn't fold like a cheap tent in elimination games what happens in the regular season doesn't matter 

    That a boy!!!!

    That’s the kinda positivity we need
