Royale with Cheese

We are being more aggressive which would lead to bigger plays. The alternative would be playing it safe, a read react defense like Frazier. We also probably are tops in the league in negative stops If you tell me we are going to give up big plays but we effect the QB consistently, get sacks, turnovers and holding teams to 16 ppg per game....I will 100% take it. Our 3rd down defense is 13th right now but it was top 5 prior to the Jags game. The Jags offense would have continued to suck if we were at least semi healthy. That number will go back down and I should be top 10 by the end of the year.

100% agree. Even though we dismantled the Dolphins, I am more afraid of them. If McDermott can slow the offense twice, without our two best defensive players....I mean that would be incredible. The Dolphins just have so much firepower that it just takes a big play or two to stretch our defense.

The simple concept is they both are equally at fault when the TOP is that unbalanced. If the offense picks up first downs, they keep the ball. That means, in this case, Trevor Lawrence stays on the sidelines. Since they keep giving the ball to Lawrence and giving him extra possessions, our offense is contributing to their TOP. It is the exact same way for the defense. If they stop them, they get off the field. Since they didn't, they stayed on the field. So again, the offense and defense in this game are equally responsible for the lopsided TOP. It's not the defense was more responsible or the offense was more responsible, they both were equally responsible. The offense kept giving the Jaguars the ball. The defense kept themselves on the field. We punted more in the first half than we did in the first 4 games combined. Multiple people are trying to explain this to you and you simply cannot grasp this.

Incredible. Simply incredible.

That’s true but JJ did have surgery. He had surgery on October 26th and his first game back was the Bills WC game. Watt started practicing on December 19th.

What is the earliest they could be designated to return? 8 weeks? Not expecting them to be ready, just curious how long IR is now.

First of all, no we didn't. Second of all, that one 300 yard game in OT against the Dolphins. Is that your proof that McDermott held back Taylor from throwing 300 yards or something? That 5 quarter gave Taylor 317 yards. Is this really your proof? You're not being serious are you? He's not legitimately this dumb. No one can be. This is just stubbornness at the highest level.

LOL Here's you being firm that it's on defense. You were blasted (like usual) about these posts. The Bills punting 6 out of their 7 possessions, you wouldn't acknowledge. Its just because of the defense lol.

LOL Tyrod Taylor in his entire career has 1 - 300 yard passing game. Just one. He has played in 85 games and 6 different teams and he has 1 - 300 yard passing game. So his entire career, he hasn't been able to throw the ball and McDermott was to blame? McDermott is to blame for when Tyrod couldn't do it with the Giants, Ravens, Browns, Chargers, Texans and Giants because of McDermott?

Aren't you the guy that the concept of TOP is too complicated?

I really, really hope he can get it right this week. We don't need another back up DT rushing from the edge.

Does anyone have any information on his injury?

I counted 4 UTM run plays. The last one, who took on the block of 300 lbs guard, disengaged and swarmed to the ball. That was incredibly impressive….most MLB outside of the top ones are getting washed away on that. Damn, Orvlosky might be right…Bernard is playing at an elite level.

Let me text my brother to see if that was him.

How can you make it hotter? I would say….10

He dominated the Jax Oline when DaQuan Jones went out after the first drive.

Do you think I can grow a beard that well?

I was at that game too lol.

I have a little hope since Mliano was originally able to walk the field with assistance. I've seen nasty breaks and those guys can't put an oz on it and usually air casted immediately. JJ Watt's first game back was our 2019 playoff game at Houston. I can't remember how he played.

Learn to take a joke people. There's a trade AJ thread on the first page.

I think indefinitely means they are leaving the door open for a possible return this year.

I don't want either one of those. I would feel equally as in the dumps without Oliver.

I know I keep on brining up JJ Watt and was returned to practice right around 60 days after tearing his pec...that probably is unusually fast. But he tore his October 26th and returned to practice December 19. DaQuan is 3 weeks ahead of that and I would be thrilled if he was back by week 15 or 16. But maybe wait until the playoffs.
