    Funny how I said this week 3 and people called me an idiot lol. I've said all year he has shown consistently that if anyone, slow guard,slow TE, center, full back completely takes him out of plays. He's a stud athlete that shows flashes, but the patriots abused him.

     

    He stinks. People are so butt hurt their guy stinks so they do any possible mental gymnastics they can do to excuse his piss poor play.

     

    Edmunds sucks, just as much as our dline. And yet people treat them as mutually exclusive, when it isn't.

    There was a thread last week about what things would be discussed if the Bills lost


    1. Guard play

    2. Defensive Line that can’t stop the run

    3 Running backs that go down to easy 

    4 No TE depth after Knox and after this game includes Knox

     

    I will say I didn’t see Tremaine Edmunds being as bad as he was but nice job everyone…if only the Bills front office and coaching listened to their fans 

     

    Honestly, some of the posters on the game day threads, I believe, could call/manage a better game. 

     

    Example: that challenge on the QB sneak spot, going for 2 point conversion. Missing that would have made it 14-6 which still would have needed a touchdown.

     

    Posters suggesting 5 down lineman on a night patriots only called 3 pass plays.

    Picking up Edmunds Option a Rare Beane Mistake

    Oliver is undersized and aggressive. The Colts manipulated that, and the Pats followed suit. Without Star or a beastly 1tech that’s going to be exploitable. Milano Shot the gaps a few times and made plays, but that’s not reliable long term. Puts us in the circumstances that occurred tonight…. 3-tech washed in a trap, LBer misses fill, Edmunds brushing over the top and can’t scrape of combo blocks fast enough to cover for Epenesa loading contain. 
     

    Edmunds isn’t going to look great without a dominant 1 tech or as a will in a 3-4.  He’s not a downhill LBer. Never was; never will be. If McB is happy with that then they need to find a solid 1-tech that’s more reliable than Star…. A guy who can dominate and allow Edmunds to scrape and get to the edge. 

     

    Well then I sure hope McD and Beane do that! I'm tired of undersized lineman. It will help Edmunds out, which will boost him to be about average imo.

    We can stop just bagging on Edmunds. Poyer and Hyde missed tackles. Milano didn’t show up until final drive. Hughes. Addison are useless against the run!!

     

    The difference is that those players have a record of making plays. While Edmunds doesn't.

     

    We bag on him because there is a constant narrative, homerism, mental gymnastics (call it what you want) bias that he is this good linebacker. When he isn't.

    He’s good at what he was drafted to do. 🤷‍♂️. Guy shrinks zones and plays cleanup. He’s Poz with the ability to play zone….. Might want to rail on Oliver for being unable to figure out when he’s being trapped, Epenesa for failing to contain….. when the DL ***** up combination blocks get to the second level. A fair amount of that is on the front four and coaching.  
     

    Im not high on Edmunds, but this loss doesn’t sit on his shoulders alone. 

     

    I've said it on here in the past that I think our biggest run woes is because we have small defensive lineman and, in my opinion, like big, heavy handed defensive lineman.

     

    Out of all the top linebackers in this league, Edmunds' perceived zone shrinking is not enough for him to be considered in the above average group of linebackers.

    Is Cover1 going to do more homer mental gymnastics break downs for this guy?

     

    List all top linebackers in this league, Edmunds doesn't sniff their jock straps.

     

    Our D would fare so much better with Devin White, Bush, Wagner, Logan Wilson, Cole Holcomb, Denzel Perryman, Blake Martinez, Roquan Smith, Dearious Leonard, my gosh this list makes me depressed....
