    I believe we will see Rapp and Hamlin next week.  If you remember, they used bishop in the ravens playoff game last year, and moved him into the box against Henry.  I wouldn’t be surprised if Hamlin is the starter from here on out but Bishop is used against run heavy teams.

     

     

    Rapp was worse than Bishop yesterday. Bishop is everyone’s whipping boy these days and other players get a pass. The whole D played like ***** with the exception of a couple. Henry had done the same thing to Hyde and Poyer in their prime. Are you to young to remember the Titans embarrassing us?

  2. Other than the one play you hardly noticed he was on the field. That’s a good thing when you give up a forty burger.

    Was that the one where they sent Cole Bishop on a blitz from deep in the defensive backfield?  If so,  Bishop caused the separation.  He ran between the CB in coverage and the WR after the snap,  which created the separation.  

    No

  3. Itheu looked pretty solid when the O is going… Seemed like for close to 3 quarters last night they wanted long time consuming drives, not really even looking down field. They didn’t look very good then. My guess is thats planned to help try to keep the D off the field.

    Mann idk…Doug Whaley was probably the worst nfl mind in the league 2013-2016 then we think he was the main factor in bringing in those three impact dbs and it wasn’t mostly McDermott? That is a scaldingly hot take

     

    im almost certain Whaley was a lame duck in that draft/free agency period and pegula wanted to keep it under wraps so prospective gms didn’t think they were walking into some kind of power struggle 

     

    I feel like if Hairston and bishop don’t work out then yea lets have that discussion you were going for. Seems a bit premature though.  Mcd has developed some great dbs and has had some minimal talent depth guys step in and play pretty solid when needed 

     

    You do know there is more than just the GM and HC scouting players? Whaleys staff was a big part of that draft and free agency. McD just didn’t show up in Buffalo and do everything himself until they hired Beane.

    There really is no point because mcd had a huge influence on those signings/picks lol. You think Whaley was running the show by himself and just randomly got fired the day after the draft 😂?   If these guys were brought in in 2016 then sure give mcd no credit but that’s not the case at all 

    Do you think they kept the scouting staff until after the draft if their input wasn’t needed? McD had input just like he does every draft. The reason Whaley and the staff was kept on was because they were more prepared for free agency and the draft. If they fired them in January they would have to assemble a whole knew staff and completely start over and have little time to get ready. Smart move by McD and Pegula. I’m not saying mcd didn’t have input, but if he was such a db wizard why have we strggled the past few years when they are constantly trying to address a bad situation.

    History said what the Bills and Allen have all ready done, couldn't be done. But it happened. The number of records that Allen has shattered is amazing. In my opinion, the only real reason McD is getting so much flack is that the defense has slumped. This isn't necessarily on him though. He has a pretty long history of being a damn good defensive coach and has an ability to get good to great performance from average talent. The narrative that he doesn't have the leadership ability seems grossly over hyped.  These players love playing for their coach and that speaks volumes and IMHO is way more important than all of the hot takes I keep reading from armchair GMs.

    In the end he won’t be remembered for how much his players love him, it will be if he’s one a Super Bowl or not. I have no problem with his leadership, I have a problem with the system he’s running on D that’s continues to let this team down in big moments and  big games.
