He is not a MLB in the way you want. You can continue saying the sky is purple but it doesn’t make it so. If they think they can find someone better they’ll move on. If not, they won’t.
-
Sometimes. Sometimes he doesn’t. And regardless of people trying to make him into a Butkus that simply is not the style defense the Bills play. And as I said earlier he still needs to work in reading plays.

Dan Snyder will not survive the 2022 season
oldmanfan replied to stuvian's topic in The Stadium Wall
Snyder should be in jail -
The stuff about Edmunds is ridiculously silly at times. People keep saying he’s a bad MLB or that he should be moved to OLB. Read this carefully: We play two LBs. For someone to be a MLB, he has to be between two other LBs. Anyone ever take high school geometry? Milano and Edmunds play our two LB spots, they both have responsibilities in the run and pass game, and Edmonds in particular has a lot of pass protection responsibility in the middle of the field. If you want a MLB like Butkus or Lewis, then yell at McD to go to a 4-3 or 3-4. Edmunds has room to improve. His diagnosis of plays is still not what it should be. But you also have to ask what he is being asked to do in the defense, and how much the defensive plan affects his play. You keep him for another year, and hopefully Frazier and McD realize they have to be more aggressive. I’d like to see them encourage Edmunds to be more aggressive and play downhill more.

Brian Flores suing NFL, NY Giants, Dolphins, Broncos.

Oh I don’t think he ever gets another NFL job. That’s why it took a lot of guts. -

Guy has guts, got to give him that. I just watched Ryan Clark and Damian Woody on ESPN and they have had it with what’s going on. At some point it would not surprise me if African-American players walk out. -
Even if true, I have one word: Tough. The HC is your boss when you’re the OC.

Can Our D Become More Versatile in 2022? If So, How?
oldmanfan replied to st pete gogolak's topic in The Stadium Wall
Bingo. We have some guys like Edmunds who are asked to play passively. If McD does anything this offseason it should be to realize that when you say you need to more aggressive, it's on both sides of the ball. -
As more women get lower level coaching positions in the league and work their way up they will do so, just as Becky Hammond did in basketball. The ignorance of folks about this is astounding. Equity is about giving people chances, not guaranteeing anything. Why does it scare you so much?
-
This is equity at work. The E of DEI (diversity, equity, inclusion) that so many Neanderthals want to call CRT or reverse racism or other tripe. The Rooney rule promotes equity, in this case giving minority candidates a shot at interviews. It does NOT guarantee they are hired.

Nice to know we won’t have to worry about the Raiders for a while.

Sympathies to you and the family on your loss.

Brian Daboll hired to be Head Coach of NY Giants
oldmanfan replied to Draconator's topic in The Stadium Wall
As OC he was responsible for Dorsey did. Why are so many people getting their nose out of joint about this? Of course Daboll gets his shot because of Josh. And Josh has developed into a star with Daboll as his OC. To suggest Daboll had little to nothing to do with his development is ridiculous. -

Just not true. Josh had things that had to be corrected. Bills fans need to stop with this kind of crap. -

The Giants atmosphere where the owners have resisted changing with the times and micromanaged woth a fan base that will not give him any margin for error. Parcells and Coughlin left a long time ago. -

Best regards for him. He did a helluva job developing Josh. Hope he does well but the Giants atmosphere will make it difficult. -
They’d be idiots to not pick up Oliver’s 5th year.

Has the NFL season ended for anyone else?
oldmanfan replied to billsintaiwan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Could care less about the next two weeks. -
I’m sure that breaks his heart
