That would require a more physical, attacking style defense. Playoffs are big boy football. We’ve gotten pushed around 4 straight years to end our season.

Well Beane, KC didn’t need to suck to draft Chris Jones in the 2nd round. Find some difference makers.

He shoved him. Kind of was his fault.

we need a pacheco!!!!!

Cincy looks like more physical team. Philly will destroy KC. Cincy/Philly would be good game.

The more physical team almost always wins in the playoffs. Can’t see us winning a super bowl with a guy like epenesa getting snaps, a 195lb nickel CB, and a pair of lightweight RB’s.

Can we really put another undersized LB on field (Milano is awesome but he can be run at) when our Nickel CB isn’t even 200lbs?

Parsons, AJ Brown, Deebo, Kelce, Josh. Power, speed, agility. Edmunds would actually fit the physical profile too if he wasn’t so damn robotic.

I think the fact that we’re light in the ass at a lot of positions on D hurts come playoffs. Johnson gotta be one of the smaller Nickles. Our safeties ain’t big. Milano is smallish. Oliver is short and small. Epenesa is smaller every year.

Most successful teams have a type of guy they draft. 49ers draft big physical DL and OL. Ravens the same. And it works more often than not for them. Groot, Basham, Epenesa, Oliver… not really clear what exactly we’re looking for there. None of them would be considered overly physical or speed rushers. Oliver undersized, Epenesa was asked to lose weight, Basham and Groot aren’t speed rushers but also not overly physical. Same on the O-Line. Just doesn’t seem like the Bills even know what they’re looking for.

In regards to Singletary, there’s so many free agent RB’s available that will be the same price or cheaper that would bring a much more physical presence to the running game and are also faster. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/all/running-back/all/

This. The scars from 13 seconds and that ass beating on Sunday aren’t going away. Your All Pro WR is almost certainly not the only guy on the team who is questioning things.

This. I like Singletary, but he’s too small and slow. Get a hammer back there. Damien Harris won’t be that expensive. That’s the type of guy we need. We need to get a more physical run game. Hynes is good in the return game but his number is too big for just that.

Burrow beatdown.

Cincy was basically laughing at our defense. Calling timeouts on your own 20 after a 4 yard play with 30 seconds left in the half when you’re up 10… Ultimate disrespect. Not deferring in the Hamlin game. 13 seconds the year before. Running it back on the defensive side means putting all your marbles on a 34 year old returning from an ACL injury.

Content with good. About sums up things. Considering how bad this organization was the previous 20 years, it’s understandable. Maybe we’ll get lucky and the Chiefs, Bengals, 49ers, and Eagles get knocked off or have injury problems next year, but we ain’t beating any of those teams in the playoffs next year if we’re running it back. They have better rosters and better coaching.

I’d argue that’s not best way to measure since most guy’s productive NFL careers are 4-5 years max and it’s really hard to overcome a bad 3-4 year start.

Has to be something going on with player development, scheme. Can’t be this many whiffs on the D Line without something going on with how they’re being coached/ developed.

Firing this poor guy after that debacle is your answer McDermott?

That’s from December 29th, doesn’t include the Cincy torching before game was cancelled. The Dolphins and Bengals gameplan was to target him. There was no playing with fire. He was bad.

Seemed like the opponents best gameplan was to target Tre. Certainly was for the Bengals. If the Hamlin situation never happened, this would be a much bigger topic of conversation. He was never a speed guy, has lost a step or 2, and mentally doesn’t seem to be handling that well. This is a huge problem.

Yep. Throw in 13 seconds and how bad the defense looked on Sunday, there’s no way Frazier is getting a head coaching job unless the Texans are looking for another guy to fire after a year.

Agreed. I’d be surprised if we got anything more than a 6th or 7th rounder. $11m is a lot for a non difference maker DT.

The excuses Beane made for Rousseau, Philips, and Spencer Brown were half-hearted and particularly weak. Rousseau’s high ankle sprain was 3 months ago. Phillips played good in the preseason?… did you expect a guy that out of shape and already paid to hold up? And Brown…why did you take him in the 3rd round if he was that far from being ready? At least he didn’t even try to make excuses for Epenesa and Basham.

I’m slowly coming around to bringing back Edmunds if it’s $15m per year or under. He’s a good young player. If we’re that strapped for cap room, package one of our 5th rounders to someone to take Oliver’s $11m off our books if you can’t get anything for him. Oliver is way more easily replaced by a vet minimum guy than Edmunds.
