Why are some of you so offended by a completely obvious statement? Rodgers had been playing well until seeing us last week. Today is probably his best game as a Jet. This means nothing more than what I said.

Rodgers with a pretty good game today. Lost in our game is that he’s actually been decent to finish out the season.

This. Josh Allen in the Playoffs is a threat to throw anywhere on the field, on any play, with the added potential of him running on any play. With a top end OL and solid playmakers all over, unless he’s having a horrible day, we shouldn’t be concerned about anyone’s defense. *With a slight caveat that I need to see our WR’s make plays against playoff Defenses* It is as it’s always been.. Will our Defense (actually healthy this year) step up in the postseason. An absolutely gnawing question to keep asking with a Defensive minded HC. I truly hope this is the year he surprises us with a healthy unit on that side of the ball as opposed to previous years.

I mean I know that this year, but in a world where it did.. what happens? Im guessing the league would have to schedule a 4 hour window in between games to get folks out, set up, and bring the new crowd in?

OMG… this Jets trick play Hahahhahahaa

It is what it is.. The Bengals have an elite QB with the best weapons in football. Miami is a division rival that we’d have to beat for the 3rd time with Tua. Denver has a rookie QB that would be coming to Orchard Park. They have a good OL, some weapons and a good Defense, but McDermott and Babich better come prepared for this game. Chargers are probably the most complete WC team with a borderline elite QB and a well rounded team around him with Harbaugh who may or may not be able to reverse “Chargering”. Steelers are obviously the weak link of the bunch but they present the same issue to Baltimore that Miami would present to us… and without the cold advantage.

Dodson with the pick

Actually, yes. This wouldn’t affect Dawkins. The others should likely be off this team within the next 1-2 years anyway. Von & Douglas likely gone this offseason (even if Von balls out in the postseason, we shouldn’t pay a guy what he’s owed who’s only a rotational pass rusher now) and Milano & Jones will probably be gone after next season. Id even offer our 1st and both 2nds this year and see if they bite. Cleveland may want the immediate capital to quickly build their team. That would leave us with likely two 4’s, three 5’s and three 6’s. Eight cost effective picks for depth & development. Beane has been able to find good depth and above average players at a pretty high rate on Day 3. What we’ve never had is a Chris Jones. If they can, they should build this Defense around Garrett & Rousseau. Fill in the pieces everywhere else.. even if that means no extensions for Bernard, Benford and/or Shakir. All 3 of them can be replaced due to defensive scheme/system and Josh Allen. Maybe an unpopular statement here, but true. Now let’s go win a Super Bowl and make this discussion more difficult, because as of now, I’m all in on a big move like this for Garrett or Crosby.

Medal of Freedom - Our Nation’s Highest Civilian Honor

So this award means nothing now? Got it. Trump about to give it to Catturd on his way out. -
Wasn’t the President of Mexico some lib hero for threatening us over avocados after Trump got elected?

I think she had a bad poll that should’ve been discarded. I think people in Harris orbit heard about it and pressured/convinced her to release it. Harris internals at that point had her losing. They knew they had to shake it up by any means necessary to make it competitive for down ballot races. Their entire closing push was centered around demonizing Tony Hinchcliffe and an outlier poll.
-
We have to elevate 1 OL to field a Offensive Line of backups, right? Even then, Anderson seems pretty important to what we do as the sixth OL. Im with those who want to see us make a mockery of the game and run it down to zero every play clock after Ray Davis handoffs. If the NFL didn’t want this, they could’ve not played favorites for half the year with the Chiefs.

It’s comical to look back at the bs we were told are our biggest domestic threats when actual threats begin to manifest themselves. We’ve been an entirely unserious country for the past four years and now have to hope it isn’t too late to turn this around.

So, how is everyone feeling about this defense going into the playoffs?
SCBills replied to Rubes's topic in The Stadium Wall
This worry is entirely predicated on the uncertainty of whether our Defense will, not just step up.. but even show up.. in the Postseason. I agree with you that the game being in Buffalo is massive. I also agree with you that we are a very different team now vs back then. So are the Ravens… since mid-season, they’ve had an elite level Defense, recognized by a pro-bowler on the DL, LB, at CB and S. Their Offense has been elite since that point, as has ours. Our Defense NEEDS to step up, because while it will be billed as Josh Allen vs Lamar Jackson, just as it always is in the Josh Allen vs Patrick Mahomes matchups, it’s actually Josh vs the superior defense and Lamar (Pat) vs the defense that historically doesn’t show up in these moments (covid windstorm aside). That has to change this year now that we’re finally healthy, and we all know this.. as evidence by the tenor of this thread. -
Spencer Brown and Christian Benford are a Super Bowl run away from being household names in the NFL. Brown is every bit as good as the RT’s named and Benford, same for the CB’s… but it’s going to take more exposure for a lockdown corner to get recognized over a ball hawk. James Cook was robbed, but I think the way we spread the ball around — even within the RB room — may have played a part. A guy like Mixon is THE guy for the Texans backfield.

Skattebo is absolutely unreal Legendary RB Draft with him and Jeanty this year

Terrel Bernard in question for the start of the Playoffs ???
SCBills replied to SCBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
Ok, anyway.. This doesn’t address the fact we have to hope we can get through the playoffs keeping Bernard, Milano and Williams healthy behind an undersized DT room. I hope they can. And if you look in the post above yours, you’ll see I’m not opposed to undersized, quick linebackers but to do so in conjunction with undersized gap shooting DT’s has given us enough evidence that injuries will always be a concern with this philosophy. Unless we bring back Ankou, these guys are playing behind Jones, Oliver, Phillips, Carter and/or Jefferson. Thats the bigger concern. Denver OL getting to the second level forcing them to shed blocks and make tackles on RB’s 3-4 yards past the LOS. -
Terrel Bernard in question for the start of the Playoffs ???
SCBills replied to SCBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
I’m not opposed to drafting athletic undersized LB’s in Rounds 3-5 like they have, but that seems to be far more logical on a team that prioritizes big DT’s.. not a team that also wants quick, undersized gap shooting / pass rushing DT’s. -
Terrel Bernard in question for the start of the Playoffs ???
SCBills replied to SCBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
Can we just, for once, hope to have KC injury luck for the Playoffs? Not sure why they’re listed in your post.. they’re getting healthy as ever right now. Only major injury they have is Rice, who they were able to replace with Hopkins. -
Terrel Bernard in question for the start of the Playoffs ???
SCBills replied to SCBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
This sounds more promising than how Thad Brown and Joe Buscaglia framed it, but still concerning that he’s in this position as we’re a week out from getting ready for our first playoff opponent. Milano just came back off injury, Williams had an elbow he’s dealing with, now this with Bernard.. Undersized LB’s getting pummeled game in/game out due to undersized DT’s seems to be a common culprit for the issues we’ve been facing.- 98 replies

SCBills replied to Rubes's topic in The Stadium Wall
Pre-angry that they will let us down… again. However, a small piece of me hopes McDermott finally shows us what he can do with a healthy Defense when it matters. Up to this point, there’s always been an excuse. The only excuse he has right now is that they just aren’t good enough .. which I hear our podcasters discuss, and eh… They had 6M to give to a WR made of glass.. We paid Ed, brought back Daquan, spent a premium pick on a DT, brought back AJ, Smoot is solid, have Rousseau, Von in the Floyd role for the Playoffs. LB is in a far better position than last year with 75% Milano plus a healthy Bernard and Williams. Healthy Douglas, Benford and Taron give us one of the best DB rooms in the league. Rapp is just as good as what Hyde gave us last year and they’ll have to figure it out between Hamlin & Bishop (another premium defensive pick) I know we have an undersized defense, but much of that is by design. Thats what McDermott wants.. a quick, gap shooting front 7.. so figure it out. Tell me why we can’t expect them to step it up this postseason? We should, and McDermott can really change the narrative around him if they do.
