I assure you he does. If Poyer doesn't get caught rolling at the snap and plays run first (C gap responsibility) like he's intended to then we're good, but Poyer continues to roll pulling him further away from his gap assignment. It's just a good call against what we had called. Taron needs to make the tackle, plain and simple.

100% it's an issue - but it's not an Edmunds specific issue as people like to make it out to be.

where you at? @AlCowlingsTaxiService @LABillsBacker???

Tampa runs Buck Sweep on 1st and 10 and catch Buffalo rolling 3 weak. Buffalo is beat at birth right here based on alignment since they have Rousseau lined up in a 7 tech instead of a 9 and their Sam linebacker (Milano) playing a 50 and having to set the edge from depth. Milano's responsibility is to set the edge so he is going to take on the first puller with outside leverage forcing Edmunds to take on the second puller with outside leverage and force the play back inside to the Will/Nickel (Johnson) and Strong Safety (Poyer). Johnson missed the tackle and Poyer got worked by the Left Tackle as the Alley player allowing the touchdown. Edminds fit his gap assignment. Anyone who says he overran the play doesn't understand football and run fit assignments. Flame on haters.... @AlCowlingsTaxiService @LABillsBacker @Rick 'r Mortis

We’re *****. Teams will play drop 8 against us the rest of the year because they know they can get pressure with 3. Beane needs to figure out how to draft the trenches or we’re doomed.

🤣🤣🤣

Don’t call myself a guru but I do understand football. Most people here don’t understand that defenders have run fits. Everyone yells at players as if they are playing “see ball get ball”.

At least if I educate you about how football actually works you’ll be a more well informed sorry sack of *****. 🤣

Man… really thought Bills fans actually had a better understanding of how football works… the lack of football knowledge around here is comical

You guys getting mad at edmunds don’t understand football and how run fits work lmfao…

I don't think you understand how football works my friend.

Yeah, this statement doesn't make much sense buddy. We were playing our base 4-3 personnel grouping with Cover 3 behind it. Technically we had 6 on the LoS. Wallace could be considered a 9 tech, Epinesa a 5, Oliver a tilt 1, Phillips a tilt 3, Rousseau a 6 and Poyer a 9. No one was lost - they just got beat. I also don't know what "they showed no intent to pass the ball means". Are you basing this off of the personnel on the field? The offensive formation? The tendencies they showed so far in the game?

That's not insticts - that's coaching - fundamentals and technique. Phillips ball get off is slow af and he lacks athleticism. It'll always hold him back.

Correct. It was a total defensive collapse.

Oof that’s a bad breakdown. They 100% were not slanting the front.

Oliver is a tilted 1 tech and is responsible for the weakside A gap. He CAN NOT under any circumstances "stack" and allow himself to get reached. He wasn't the only one on the line that this happened to by the way. See my previous post breaking down all the failures.

What technique? He got reached.

This is what the fits should have looked like.

If he stays in the Middle then he gets reached by the guard who climbs to the second level untouched and we're not gapped out. We were in Base not Nickel.

Bad fits all around. Wallace can't get widened he needs to replace straight downhill when he see's the crack by the WR. Epenesa can't run himself upfield and instead fight pressure with pressure so he doesn't get washed. Oliver, Phillips, and Rousseau all get reached which allows the guards to work directly up to Termaine and Milano untouched. Dotson needs to work more downhill with his attack steps and meet the FB at the LoS tight off of the WRs butt and actually leverage him. Tremaine and Milano can't get kicked when defeating their blocks (that cut back right into where Milano should be. Ultimately it comes down to Hyde over-running the play though. He's the last line of defense in single high coverages. A perfect storm of nearly everyone not executing their responsibility.

You guys are wild. Defenses have personnel packages - not formations. The offense dictates how you align regardless of the personnel you have on the field so it ultimately would put a lesser athlete in space the majority of the time. Leave the coaching to the coaches fellas.

High Schools and Colleges have been running this for years - it's funny to me that this is being played off in the NFL as something "new" and "innovative".

He's a great gap scheme guard. We are a zone run team. Need guys who can move, work up to a second level, and block in the open field.

Was referring more to our guard spots.

Size is nice, but athleticism on the interior of our OL (or lack there of) is what cost us a trip to the Superbowl. An investment into some dominant edge rushers is much needed as well.
