jahnyc Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 1. Not sure I have ever watched a Bills game where there were so many huge holes for the opposing team's running backs. I believe the Jets averaged 6 yards per carry, and I do not think that Greene is a top back. In the first half, there were a couple of running plays where there was no Bills defender on the outside. Kind of shocked that the Jets threw it as much as they did since they were so effective running the ball. 2. No pass rush, again. Surprised that the Bills cannot figure out a way to bring pressure from blitzing. 3. I know that Sheppard is a rookie, but he seemed to have a really bad game today. 4. Sanchez is not a good QB and he threw four TDs against us. For one of the touchdowns by the Jets, even though it was third down, there was no one within 10 yards of the receiver. 5. Carrington was very quiet today. Not sure if he will develop into a quality player. Troup is a bust. 6. Williams impressed today. Seeing McKelvin on special teams only was depressing and I doubt he will be back with the team next year. 7. Byrd is having a very good year at safety. 8. This defense is really bad, which is amazing considering the number of free agent signings and draft picks that have been made to improve it.

bobobonators Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Agree on every point. not much else to say other than Plax was wide open on his TD as well...2 wide open TD's with not a single player within 10 yds is as pathetic as you can get. Edwards will be fired and this D will hopefully get much needed help in the offseason via FA and draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. K Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 pass rush pass rush pass rush run defense run defense run defense They have to get these two things straightened out by whatever means necessary. They can't afford to go into next season playing the kind of pathetic defense they have mostly played this season. Will some of these rookies pan out? I wish we were seeing more improvement from the linemen and linebackers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobobonators Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 when KW was playing this D was at least respectable vs. the run while being shredded vs. the pass...now we just suck all around. you know it's bad when you can't 1. stop the run; and 2. rush the passer. horrible.

billsfan714 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Watching this Steelers game, if Im Buddy and Chan, Im looking for some coach on Dick Lebeau's staff thats ready to make the jump to coordinator next year. If you want to run the 3-4 why not somebody who has worked for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nateodoms'bff Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Will he? So you're saying we need a new defense. or Kevin Greene who played for him. I'd be interested to see what a Kevin Greene defense would look like. Probably a fierce pass rush which would be awesome to see. I wonder what his coverage schemes would look like. That's the biggest issue. These current schemes are obviously to complex for the CB's to understand considering all the blown assignments week after week. I wish we could see a little more press an bump and run. There are guys on this team who can play single coverage on this defense, they just need to be allowed to do it.

Formerly Allan in MD Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Carrington has been pretty quiet most of the season. I'm never depressed when I see McKelvin sitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouds Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Searcy may be a find in the 4th, besides his one missed assignment he looked good, really good for a rookie with only one game under his belt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 We have the worst defense in the league. Let's not exaggerate. We're bad, and on a points-per-game basis the Colts, Panthers, Vikes, and Bucs are worse On a yards per game basis, 8 teams are worse including the Bears, Raiders, Packers, and Pats. Still pretty bad though. The lack of pass rush is astonishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan714 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) Does anybody know the number of sacks we have in the 10 non-redskins games? Because that number has to be scary low. Edited November 28, 2011 by billsfan714 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphean Bills Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Does anybody know the number of sacks we have in the 10 non-redskins games? Because that number has to be scary low. You're being greedy asking for sacks. Heck, generating enough pressure to cause the QB to have to move one of his feet an inch or two would be worthy of a note home.
