Harrison Phillips is 6'3" and 306 pounds. I don't think he is undersized.
Anyway, stopping the run is not the important thing this game. Getting pressure on Mahomes is. That's likely why Phillips is inactive.
And Murphy isn't really that good regardless
Well no, he actually WAS playing pretty good last year before the injury. Not sure I would say great, though.
But if he isn't playing well right NOW, that's the most important thing. You have to do what you need to win games.
I think that's an old school mentality. Aaron Donald is pretty soft spoken and cerebral. He just also happens to be a freak of nature that can throw guys around. He isn't a "nasty" football player at all.
Just get the job done however necessary. If you need to get "nasty" to do it, fine, but don't bring penalties when you do it.
University of Phoenix Stadium (Cardinals) has retractable grass that can be cared for between games.
Maybe something similar could happen for the Bills. Roll out the grass into a protected housing between games, then roll it back in for the game.
Kelce is the best pass catching TE in the league. There's no such thing as covering him.
The Bills will likely give him a heavy dose of Milano (if he's ready to play) and probably some safety help. But nobody really shuts down Kelce. You just have to do your best to make sure he doesn't wreck everything.
In fact, the Chiefs have a few players like that...
Your title is longer than your post. First strike.
You forgot that our linebackers are banged up and have missed multiple games. Second strike.
You use nothing to support your opinion. Third strike.
You're out!!
He probably shouldn't change the way QB's are evaluated. If other teams are trying to find another Josh Allen, they will likely fail. Josh is unique. We may never see another prospect like him.
They want to sell merchandise. There's nothing wrong with that. And they already own half of it.
It's not like they are going to go sue people for using the term. They just want to sell some shirts.
Well that sucks. So it's a scheme issue and the Bills defense is being too predictable. That seems tough to fix.
Unfortunately teams seem to have this McDermott defense figured out. I guess they need to do some self scouting and mix things up, but that's hard to do at a fundamental level.
What are you even talking about? We just contained Jacobs and Henry. Run defense is not the issue. Linebacker depth is. And also containing the edges on the line.
