  1. I'm pretty sure it takes some time for an offensive line with two new guys to really gel.  Yesterday they looked a unit, not five guys trying to figure it out.  Granted, Dallas is defense is shaped to beat the passing game since they expect to be playing with an early lead - too bad for them.   That said, the Bills play calling was really good.  Stuck with what was working, making Dallas have to adjust, then shifting to something else that worked, etc so they were on their heels allnight

  2. Jamie Nails - pretty enormous guy.  On one play, the play by play guy said something about a linebacker trying to run around him to get to the QB, and the color announcer said "If you run around that guy, you're going to be late"

  3. Not sure it's a top ten performance, but the second half against Tampa Bay was incredible. If it wasn't for a poor first half and some questionable officiating at the end, it would be one people would talk about for a long time. He put the whole team on his back and carried them to a big comeback.  

    It showed his desire to win and his ability to elevate the play of both the offense and defense.

    Tremaine Edmunds made it very difficult to work the middle of the field, and regardless of who we draft we’re going to see teams start to do it

     

    Did he make huge hits know was his coverage bad at times yes we are going to see that. It’s like that for every linebacker.

     

    But it’s going to be several million dollars cheaper to watch it

    I think you're right. Somebody did an analysis of how Milan and Edmunds complicated other team's passing games because of their speed and athleticism.    The D was built around slowing/stopping the quick passing game.   However, the run defense suffered at times - particularly on draws and some misdirection plays.

    With Edmunds gone I think we may see more 4-3, with Bernard opposite Milano on the outside.  Not sure who on the roster can be the MLB unless the think Dodson can do it. Not sure he's enough of a thumper to really take on linemen.
