    Im actually not all doom and gloom about this game. Seattle is a more extreme version of us-- lights out offensively with a superstar MVP QB and the worst defense in the league. A shootout might be the only way to get the W here

    I agree I just hope our offense gets back to it

    Man, some of you guys are just pitiful. Can’t enjoy a win at all? You only watch to find stuff to cry about don’t ya? So Edmunds is playing bad, we all get it. Do we need multiple posts whining about it? Do we need to post it in every thread? What’s your alternatives since you hate the kid now and don’t want him playing? Matevich? Klein? Andre Smith? It’s easier to understand the constant whining when there’s a capable player maybe riding the bench, but there’s nobody else to put out there. Gonna have to ride it out and see if he can improve some things in his game. 

    That’s it there’s no one else I’m sure coach sees it too

    It’s hard to win in the NFL. Right coach, your a lucky bastard today

    That’s the truth I just knew my next 4 days were fixing to be ugly that’s how long it takes me to get over a game. They were easily going to score a TD when he fumbled my head hit the ceiling fan GO BILLS. But please do something about D our next games are tough

    I'm tempted to think Belichick has thrown in the towel on the season and is smartly low-key tanking. Something about his tone in recent conferences and his lack of grouch that would normally be there. Then you throw in the Edelman IR, Gilmore trade, etc.

     

    We'll know the answer tomorrow, I think.

    Usually teams play 3 games in 15 days so it's not that big of a difference.

    I said this in another thread I too think BB is just kind of going through the season with covid and Brady leaving if you were going to have a bad year why not this one. He’s got his eyes on next year I really thought that before the season even kicked off.

    I actually dont think our main weakness is stopping the run. When we gameplan to stop it we do. We held Derrick Henry to 57 yards, 3 YPA which is his lowest of the season. The Chiefs ran all over us but 1) their the Chiefs and 2) McD literally said that was the plan.

     

    I think our biggest weakness is QB contain and the secondary which impacts the run game.

    Your right on the KC game as much as I hated seeing us get ran on like that if our offense would of been playing like they have been we could of won that game. Allen has to start playing better in big games

    I had a quick look for something that explains the role of a free safety.  Not sure it's the best, found this:

    Run-stopping

    While they don’t have as physical of a role in the running game as strong safeties, run support is very important. As they usually are lined up in a deep part of the field, they have to find the ball carrier, pursue at the right angle, and make a solid tackle. For the majority of the game, they are lined up deep, which means they are the last line of defense. If a free safety is making too many tackles in the running game, that likely means that the defenders in front of them are losing their individual battle. The safety should be exactly that, a safety net that you hopefully won’t need but is there if they have to prevent a big play.

     

    Note the point that the job of the free safety as a last line of defense, focuses on his ability to take at the right angle and make a solid tackle and to pursue the play if needed.  A free safety who "brings the wood"  too hard may tend to miss altogether, which is the very thing a good free safety is NEVER to do.  I mean, sure, it would be great to have Ed Reed or Eric Berry, but those guys were both drafted in the 1st round for a reason, and stayed on the teams that drafted them pretty much all career for a reason too.

    Hyde is a leader both on the field and in the locker room, and if we have learned anything from McD he is willing to keep and continue to pay his leaders (looking at you Lee Smith). I personally would be shocked if we moved on from him. 

    I agree but I would love to add someone that can bring the wood in run support

    The Bills barely had the ball so they kind of had this false sense of "we gotta make something happen". I mean Thurman was the MVP in that game...the only reason he didn't get it is because the writers legit didn't know you could vote for a losing player.

    Who would want a mvp after losing a super bowl. And we clearly got out coach in that game with a back up QB. Maybe Allen can get us one ol jimbo just two many picks

    Is there a reason the pats would trade their best defensive player? I don't get it. Surely they are not ready to tank and give up on the season.

    BB knew this year would be so different with covid and no Brady and his smart enough to know they didn’t have a super bowl team. He will coach hard and say all the right things but he already had this year as a wash hence not trying to get a better qb and just taking cam last minute he will get his qb next year and start building again. This year didn’t catch him off guard. But by saying all that let’s stump them in the dirt GO BILLS
