LABILLBACKER

I think the last 3 pop up kicks by Buffalo ended up at the 30, 33 & 35. I hated the deliberate strategy last night. We don't have the gunners to run that. Let Bass tb the ball and take your chances at the 25. Hopefully that's the last we see of that.

We needed someone Mercyless last night.

Bills lost because both trenches sucked.

We do not have a dominant OL by any stretch of the imagination. I would've loved to see 2 TE's on that play maybe allowing Josh an outside option but Knox was hurt. Get a 3rd TE Sean and stop with the FB nonsense.

1. OL 2. DL 3. RB 4. ST ...still shocked we couldn't sack Hieneke or Tanahill?

Pretty much has to since he's our only remaining TE. And no Gilliam is not a TE.

I'm going to lump the OL/RB issue together. We've known about this problem since early last year. We rely on Josh's athleticism to be our only RB. Stop playing Addison and Hughes who are clearly old and slow, and get your young draft picks in there. If we play Tennessee 10 times they probably beat us 6-7 times.

I know we'll bounce back and probably be 8-2 heading to New Orleans. But I'm just so sick and tired of losing to that F ing dead bud adams organization. And d-bag vrabel trying another music city bs. Our trenches picked a bad night to crap the bed. Do we really have enough of a running game to win a SB? ???

All Micah had to do was turn around. All night it seemed like the defense had their backs to plays constantly.

Exactly....besides Bass our ST has been awful. Haack almost had another blocked. Kickoff coverage in the 2nd half gave them amazing field position on 3 straight.

Couldn't agree more. We did nothing to improve the run game. Breida sucks and is inactive. Our OL like last year is incapable of blocking on either side. And our 2 headed running back lacks any type of playmaking ability. Too bad we didn't draft up a couple spots and take Diggs. We've have 2 great corners. But the bottom line is we're only going as far as the OL/DL take us. Last night they both sucked.....

Yes it was short. Josh just wasn't able to extend the ball because of the way/angle he was hit. It was inches from another highlight play by him.

True

Anybody know why the ball was spotted on the 5 yard line when Diggs was held in the endzone?

I'm over Hughes and Addison. They'll both be gone next. They're just too old and slow to be impactful anymore. Play the young guys and draft more youngsters.

Once his cleat slipped out the game was over. I would've like to see him go airborne (hindsight)?

We discussed ad naseum last year how important it would be to improve our run game. Tonight proved nothing has changed from last year. The little Brieda experiment is a fail. And with our current OL we will continue to ask Josh to be our RB.

Tampa would do exactly what Tennessee did. Drop more in coverage. Ignore Buffalo's run game and force Josh off his spot. Brady would carve us up.

Alot more than our 2. If we don't find a better run game somehow we're not winning a SB. I said this last year and I'll say it all this year. If the game is close our run game vanishes.

I'm starting to wonder if we'll ever have the OL to pretend we have a running attack. I know our RB's are both pretty mediocre but without any run option, teams can drop dbs and ignore the run.

Well said and all true. They always get up for us.

They mentioned this early in the game. Condolences to coach considering his grandparents basically raised him. Rough night all around. Super disappointed with our DL.

Hated the call or at least force the refs to review the previous run by Josh. That buys you time to come up with a better 4th down play.

Our OL, DL & RB's were garbage tonight.

I'm tired of learning from constant loses to Tennessee. Kick the damn chipshot and give your team a chance in OT.
