Oh okay, so Hairston replaced White. Think I’d rather see Hairston and White in on dime rather than Cam Lewis.

Has Tre White been pulled for Cam Lewis?

Taron Johnson has been ROUGH this year

Been telling folks Josh deserves much more of the blame for the passing game struggles. Many here don’t want to admit that.

You know, after the Bills failed so many times running the same play in short yardage against the Chiefs, I was sure, SURE, that Brady would have spent all offseason scouring effective short yardage plays so that he’d have a much bigger treasure chest to pull from when they’re again in those situations. Well, his short yardage plays this year are worse than last year; we don’t even run the tush push anymore. I’m a bit disappointed in him as a coordinator but do feel it’s less for the Bills to have to rebuild if he’s promoted to HC. The offense can rebound, the defense I feel never will under the current scheme.

He covered for a lot of Hamlin’s poor angles/mistakes and was the last line of defense to tackle ball carriers before they scored. I’d agree, he had a pretty good year last year… for an average to below average starting safety. This year he just hasn’t been up to the task.

The Lions last game had an entirely different secondary than they opened the season with. And they performed very well. No excuses, man up and figure it out.

Only if the back 7 start to play more aggressively. If they continue to give these soft cushions then it doesn’t matter if/when someone on the line gets immediate pressure. The QB will have an easy outlet, it’s like pitch and catch.

Ngata himself has said in an interview that he thought he was going to Buffalo. If only Coleman didn’t run the fastest (?) gauntlet at the combine, Bills may not have picked him.

Gotta be between Poyer and Hancock. Scary thing is, the last we saw of Poyer in a Bills jersey a few years ago, he was completely washed. We were celebrating when he moved on. He’s many years removed from “All-Pro Po,” but can he be better than Rapp at this point is all that matters. I’d like to see them gamble on the rookie, Hancock, provided he knows the defense well enough.

He was a good player in Anarumo’s system. We used to complain about how Mahomes toyed with Edmunds but when Pattie went against the Bengals, Wilson wasn’t as easily fooled. His steps and awareness in coverage were mostly correct. I have no idea who he is now as a player, only what he was then.

His athletic profile was very similar to Garrett Wilson, but supposedly he has shorter arms or something?

Gadsden looking like Gates. Steal of a draft pick.

I don’t think the Chiefs have a losing record with any crew. It is kinda odd that the second winningest regular season team in the last 5 years has a losing record with not one, but TWO crews. This guy and wasn’t Land Clark the other? Or baby Hochuli?

And the Bengals would’ve beaten them too if not for a couple flags.

Did you see his “effort” on Trevor Lawrence’s game winning TD run? Brutal.

Yeah, I guess the media should never ask about injuries because what’s the point, right? Fans and media want more information than what can be found on weekly injury reports? How dare they! Maybe you can start a petition to outlaw these questions.

Complacent. Stale. Routine. Whatever you want to call it, the Bills and McD/Allen have seemingly reached this point. Not to mention only Cook and Oliver have elevated their play post second contract.

If either actually hit IR count me as surprised because their situation will feel mismanaged. In my opinion it’s just McD being cagey as usual. A reporter asks “is IR a possibility?” McD responds with his token “we’ll see.” They act like they don’t have any of the information when in fact they have all of it. Diagnoses don’t take literal weeks.

Don’t kid yourself. Sean McDermott and the Bills know exactly what’s wrong with Strong’s neck, they just don’t want to tell you. They’re so unnecessarily cagey with injury information. A few weeks after Hairston’s knee sprain they were still “gathering information.”

The All-hindsight draft would have been filthy good if Beane never traded up, picked S Emmanwori in the first, CB Trey Amos and whoever else you wanted in the 2nd, DT Deone Walker in the third, and WR Tory Horton in the 4th.

I think he’s generally hands off when it concerns the offense, but if you want to assign him blame for not picking up the headset and setting his OC straight, I couldn’t argue with it. He gives his coordinators more space than maybe he should.

I also think he’s more to blame for the struggles than most here are willing to admit, but if I had to put a percentage on it, I’d say the passing issues are 35% Joe Brady, 30% Josh Allen, 20% WRs, and 15% OL.

As long as they rule that the first Seahawk had possession.

The Ravens have returned from their bye week. Lamar Jackson did not practice (hamstring).
