    The uniformity of the narrative presented (ZERO concession or complexity), and the absolute lack of concrete attribution for ALL evidence submitted, adds up to a polemic hit-piece that reads more like a conspiracy theory than the whistle-blowing reportage it wants us to see.

     

    Maybe the unnamed authors are on to something, but this published compilation of hearsay, conjecture, and innuendo isn't a convincing presentation.

    *placing the dictionary and thesaurus back on my desk*

     

    I concur.

     

    Intelligent response. I think we're all a bit smarter for having read it.

  2. 3rd quarter. Our defense forces a rare 3 and out on the Chiefs. Our offense gets the ball with great field position and a chance to take the lead.

     

    Daboll proceeds to call 3 runs to someone not named Josh Allen. Needless to say, we go 3 and out...

     

    Too many series like this throughout the seasons. I wish Daboll luck on his next team and I hope that team isn't the Buffalo Bills.

    The entire defense plays better than the sum of it's parts...not sure if any of these players would be great by themselves other than Tre, and maybe Milano, but the way they play as a unit is something to behold...they are a well oiled machine on defense.

    No first team Pro-Bowlers on the #1 ranked defense. Crazy.

    I think we’re too reverent to Beasley and Sanders.

     

    I think those two have faded down the stretch here, and need Davis and McKenzie rotating in half the time and taking snaps away from them.

     

    We have no presnap motion, no jet sweeps, no misdirection, no two backs in the backfield, we don’t roll the pocket.

     

    We don’t seem to have a good hot read for blitzes. There is never a dump off available. 

     

    We can’t call a slant to save our lives even with Diggs. 
     

    We don’t run the ball straight forward, instead it’s always some delayed handoff or gimmick formation.

     

    We have no NFL caliber Tight End outside of Knox. 
     

    Allen presses a lot and he took a horrible sack in the red zone that cost the Bills. He had time tonight.

     

    We don’t control the tempo at all, speed up or slow down. How are we getting plays off with 0-1 seconds left on the play clock?

     

    Why is Zack Moss STILL GETTING red zone work? Why the hell is he still on this team? 

     

     

     

    Absolutely nailed it, in my opinion.

    I'm as Buffalo as it comes but I don't think this is true. I wonder if we would have won some of those SB's with Marino. We had great defenses, special teams and better tight ends and a deeper WR corp AND runnings backs

     

    He had Mark Duper

    I'd have to agree with you. Kelly was great, and a perfect fit for Buffalo. But Marino is one of the all time greats (I still don't like him though).

    Yea a team learned last year it is good to have backup to backup to backup QB to have experience other than high school.

    Bro, I never even implied that this guy was going to supplant Josh, or even compete with him. But we should always competition at all spots. I'm hoping this guy can push Fromm.

     

    Our starters are in good shape, but when they go down, we need a deep bench. This seems obvious to me.

  7. How many times in the championship game did Kelce just jog to an open spot in the zone and make a simple catch? How many times did we hear the Bills secondary needed to jam the WRs and stop letting them get a free release?

     

    Levi, Dane, Taron...they don't have enough athleticism to press or play man. This is a weakness that will be exploited by good teams.

     

    If you have guys that can get to the QB in 3 seconds, that's great. But it doesn't help a lot when the QB is getting rid of the ball in 2.5.

     

    McDermott has shown a willingness to adapt his game and make adjustments to his style. The NFL passing game is changing. I think he will eventually start focusing on CB2 in the future. This year I think it's going to hurt us.

     

    Anyway. Go Bills!

  8.  3 seconds seems to be a key number. If a QB holds the ball longer than 3 seconds, the chance for a negative play increases. QB rhythms and WR routes are designed to be completed in under 3 seconds.

     

    How do you get the QB to hold onto the ball a split second longer? Coverage. If your secondary can get the opposing QB to hold onto the ball half a second longer, our front 7 has a better chance at getting a sack or causing a negative play by the offense.

     

    Having a good CB2 will also help our safeties since they wouldn't have to worry about drifting coverage that way.

     

    Beane and McDermott don't seem to see things this way. They make the decisions. So we'll see how this season goes. I will support them and the team even though I happen to disagree here.

    First four picks are exactly what we need. Last year we got to the afc championship without a good front 7 and got exposed. Now we add depth and nastiness.. hmm check number 1

    We need to protect our most important asset.. hmm check number 2. 
    Amazing how many people are expressing a desire for CB2. Let’s get real the reason kc beat us is we couldn’t get to mahommes and their dline manhandled us

     

    You go beane. Sees our weaknesses and doubles down! What a front office

    That goes both ways, no? The secondary and the D-line work together. QBs in today's NFL get rid of the ball so fast. If you have a great secondary, you can get the QB to hold on to the ball for another second. That gives the line a better chance at getting to the QB.

     

    I'm not saying that Beane is wrong. How can I? But I can have an opinion, and I really wish that we had picked some athletic freaks for the secondary. Dane and Levi aren't athletic enough to press or play man.
