Formerly Allan in MD Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 The Duke is either clueless or uncoachable, as no one ever told him a defensive back should do what he did on that interference penalty. We drafted him why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1B4IDie Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Maybe the 2 handed shove of the WR about to catch the ball is actually just the cutting edge of future DB technique? I think in Duke Williams mind he saved a TD, but in reality he needed to get his head around and make a play at the ball. There was enough air under the ball to make It a defensible play.

GG Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 What's usually ignored is that Bills played a lot of teams who were missing key players, and those good teams didn't miss a beat. It's not so much that Duke stunk, it's that he was put into a situation that he couldn't win. Â It's mostly all about the coaching, and Marrone and Co were schooled again.

1B4IDie Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I hear you but how many times can you say this about Gilmore? It seems like you can say that about him every single friggin week. Â Isn't it weird how many times he seems to have a guy covered but yet he ends up giving up a big play to that guy anyway? Yup. It does seem like that.

Jerry Jabber Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 (edited) Yeah I was agreeing with you. Â It is just so frustrating as a fan. Our CBs on paper should be a strength, but instead are a liability. Â The front 7 is now a force to be reckoned with but the CBs are leaky. Â No Duke Williams PI, no Tyms TD and the game is a different game. Â I bashed the CB's in preseason and said they were a weakness, but you said the CB's were nothing to worry about because they've played good before so that automatically meant they will still be good come the regular season. What's the excuse now?! Edited October 13, 2014 by Jerry Jabber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GG Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Â What good teams? Where did they not miss a beat? Be more specific. Â Half of San Diego's OL was out, did you see Pats injury list, on top of a weak OL, they lost Connelly during the game and their top RB. What's their excuse?

Don't stop billievein Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 A.Williams brings that physical play we needed yesterday. Gronk would have been much less effective if Williams plays! I personally think A.Williams is vital to the success of this defense without byrd around anymore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 At this point Duke Williams should be better then he is....... Â I would give Kenny Ladler a shot......who actually looked like he could cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWATeam Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Tell me about it. We could use all the help we could get to slow down Brian Tyms and Brandon LaFell. Really takes elite talent to hope to slow down these guys. Â Bottom line is we got outcoached as usual. Players are secondary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonborn10 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Really hurt not having Aaron Williams in the secondary today. Not saying we'd win if he'd been able to play, but would have really helped our chances. Â We can get away with one below average safety with Aaron out there. We were exposed, and it wasn't the linebackers who were the problem in coverage this week like I feared all week. Â Side note - I think I just saw Gilmore get beat for another TD. That TD was to the deep middle. That was Grahams fault. He was beaten badly. Gilmore almost made a great play. Gilmore is fine. The lack of blitzing and the safety play was awful yesterday.

Â I said the Benjamin catch was not getting burned. It was not. Â That is what happened in reality. Â I also talked about the secondary as well. Gilmore hasn't been what people expect from a #1 corner. I'll give the Pats WR credit for making the first TD catch as he outmuscled two Bills CB's, but with two CB's on one WR, the Bills CB's should have won that battle.

Do you think he would've also been injured by week 6 if he stayed with the Bills or are you just being witty? If you don't think Jarius Byrd would've been useful yesterday instead of Duke Williams they you need to watch again.
