41, 28, 37. For a third time in 4 AFC East games this year a Rex Ryan defense has been shredded. Take out the Jacoby Brissett shut out and you're staring at 35.3 points yielded a game. In Week 2 Fitz torched the Bills using their big physical receivers. In week 7 Miami's oline shredded our front 7. Today the Patriots scored on 8 of 11 drives, not counting the final kneel down. There are issues on offense, but the defense is the reason why Rex is a head coach. He has, his stud rookie pass rusher, and his $100 million defensive tackle back. Yet the defense had no answer. Blame players all you want but Rex Ryan owns the defense. The biggest area of concern is at the safety level. I don't have the all-22 but it looks Meeks got burned on the first TD then, poor tackling on a WR screen led to another, and Gilmore appears to be the victim of no help over the top on Hogan's burn. I'm sure there's a ton of blown assignments on that end. Blanton, and Meeks look lost. Ed Reed in his prime would be useful. Having an all-time great wouldn't solve all the issues that appear to be scheme based. Scheme is what leads to 35.3 points against. Being out-schemed is on the coaches. It is inexcusable to put a 5'8" Robey-Coleman alone with no safety help on Gronk. Let's be honest the Bills model of winning is based on the defense keeping opponents out of the end zone. The Broncos offense sucks. They've lost their top running back, have a below average QB who sucked in college. Their top WR is hobbled by injury. But Denver's defense doesn't get out-schemed. 31, 25, 25 can win games. The problem is on Rex Ryan. He can deflect and cover all he wants but the man simply can't scheme a game. What will the excuse be Monday night in Seattle? A hobbled Russell Wilson and porous Seattle offensive line should be fodder for a defensive "genius". If Rex does his homework he, Rob and Dennis should be able to come up with a winning gameplan.

He was flagged for holding twice right?

Overreacting a bit.

New England has a great system with an all-time great QB and great personnel.

Trade Gilmore to Chicago for Alshon Jeffrey.

Yeah I have confirmation from sources it was a Pats fan

I'm totally with you bro. If you're gonna draw the flag for a late him "sweep the leg" and go for broke.

The best deal the Bills could make is trading Gilmore to Chicago for Alshon Jeffrey. Their contracts both expire in 2017. We get rid of a malcontent who doesn't appear to be putting in a full effort and add a weapon.

I liked Brown's sack although he should have went for the ball. Good hit, good power and I liked the wrap up and driving him into the ground and having him land on his shoulder. Close call if Brown got more lift and landed on Brady with all his weight it's possible we get a collarbone or AC joint injury. With a little different technique Brown could have tomahawked the ball loose. http://m.buffalobills.com/video/videos/Tom-Brady-hit-hard-by-Preston-Brown-on-the-3rd-down-sack/6f88c8d2-d6e6-4f3c-b5aa-c82d7aab6c1b

41 points given up by our defense and everyone is mad at Tyrod.

Probably a Pats

I see Belichick has given his Defender's instructions to intentionally injure Tyrod.

As Gilmore said, he has numbness in one of his arms. Last years procedure involved shaving the bone of two vertebrae to alleviate pressure it was putting on the nerve(s). So we know the general problem, discs and vertebrae involved and why it's causing a problem. No doubt this sounds like Peyton Manning's neck injury which also caused numbness or loss of touch dexterity. Ultimately Manning underwent three posterior cervical foraminotomy before ultimately going through a vertebrae spinal anterior fusion. It's my bet Aaron Williams could have the same surgery and continue playing however because he is waiting till the offseason to make a decision he would likely miss 2017, like Manning missed 2011. At 28 years old in 2018 Williams could come back, or he could retire. I'd put retirement at a 75% likelihood.

He will likely play with a brace and do offeseason surgery

In honor of what's his name coming to town I wanted to start a convo on the top QB career altering injuries in NFL history. Montana and Theismann come to mind. Manning's 2006 neck injury versus the Redskins and bounty hunter Gregg Williams is rumored to have led to his decline. I'm sure we can construct a top 10 list. And maybe one lucky Bills defender can add to the list soon.

My good buddy always says we should run a roll out to Belichicks sideline and have someone either A fall at his legs, or B have the QB throw the ball away into his face.

I like our chances. The beauty of football is that it is unpredictable. Who would have predicted Gronk's ACL in 2012, or Gronk's high ankle sprain in 2011, or Hernandez's murder conviction in 2013? Remember Edelman's broken foot in 2015? The Pats haven't been dealt a crippling injury this year. They will incur injuries it's inevitable.

Football is not worth being a paraplegic. Aaron hopefully won't need surgery, but regardless he needs to retire. He's only 26 lot's of life in front of him.

I do think the OP makes a valid argument that Taylor doesn't seem to have the requisite skill set to come from behind. But neither does EJ. I'd continue sprinkling EJ into the game and using him for hard counts, QB sneaks, and bootlegs. I'd also try EJ as a receiver in the wildcat.

Tyrod is not a QB. He is an athlete who makes one read, of not open he scrambles tries to get someone open and either throws it away, or tucks it and runs. If Tyrod could learn how to make throws inside the pocket like Brees watch out.

Dareus is a complete bust. He's quickly trending into Albert Haynesworth infamy. Such potential, but a checkered past, and lack of internal drive has been his downfall. At this point I'd bet 75% of the fan base is against him. Count me in that 75%.

We will need a great game on both lines. And someone to shut down their TEs.

Has Brady ever been knocked out of a game? Not that ACL bs I'm talking head slammed to the ground head spinning. Hopefully we can knock him out of his first game.

In your face Belichick.
