Bill from NYC Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 (edited) 1) It looks to me as if Dareus took the money and simply stopped trying. If he applied any pass rush at all today I must have missed it. And let's stop kidding ourselves, OK? He is no longer anything that special against the run. 2) I am not going to blast Roman as much as the inadequate coaches on defense, but those wildcat plays to EJ simply must stop. The first one was funny. The second wasn't. 3) Jerry Hughes has a lot of heart, and he's a very good player. 4) I used to think that Miller had a chance to be a good guard. Sadly, those days are gone. He is clueless and light in the ass. No way is he as good as Urbik. Mills? We can pretend he is ok, but today he looked as if he has no business on an NFL roster. 5) I hate to say this, but I will. The Bills were not a worse running team when Shady got hurt. Karlos can play football folks. Sorry. 6) The bottles stand as empty, as they were filled before. Time there was and plenty, but from that cup no more. Though I could not caution all, I yet may warn a few: Don't lend your hand to raise no flag, atop no ship of fools. 7) Because of Rex Ryan, the Bills are probably the worst team in the NFL right now, and I could live with this. It's not like this is unfamiliar footing if you will. But we are losing because the coach insists on stupidity and does not bring any discipline or accountability. I wish he didn't have 4 years left because if it was up to me, I would have fired him at halftime. 8) Hughes, the only member of our defensive line who provides any pass rush, spent much of the 1st half in unsuccessful pass coverage. Just a complete waste. 9) Watkins makes it look easy in the end zone, doesn't he? 10) You know, Tyrod had 79 rushing yards on 9 carries which is great imo. Much of this yardage was on scrambles. I wish Roman would call more designed running plays. Speaking of Tyrod, I am liking him more and more. Tyrod isn't a quitter. He is a good young quarterback who continues to improve and doesn't make many mistakes. 11) I give up. What happened on that 1st quarter punt? 12) The teams we are losing to are so-so at best. We make them look like superstars, especially opposing quarterbacks. 13) McKelvin surprised me today. I didn't think that he could play so poorly. 14) There was actually a glimmer of hope at the very end of the 3rd quarter. We had them at 3rd and 16. We used a 3 man rush and Cousins, with all week to throw, completed a pass with ease. I never, ever thought we were this kind of weak, non-aggressive team. 15) In case I don't get around to it later this week, allow me to wish every one of you and your loved ones a Merry Christmas filled with joy. This forum is great and has been for years. 16) GO BILLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now all the personnel mistakes are coming back to haunt us Actually I think they are better when both play, makes it tough for teams to focus on one style. When Shady was out and Karlos was main back he did not do nearly as well. In this NFL it is great to have both types of backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Tuesday Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Please explain.....

jeffismagic Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 When a head coach is hired with a specific expertise, they run their side of the ball. The idea that Rex wouldn't run the D is wishful, magical thinking. And now that we have Rex here, what is the point in building around a 4-3 defense? Mario and Kyle are aging and injured. Maybe we could have one more top 5-6 season from the boys but then what? We would be starting over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CookieG Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 The defense is passive. Everyone plays very reactionary. It's like the very opposite of a Rex Ryan defense. I think you can blame it on a learning curve, but they have had 14 games to figure it out now. yep. Which brings up the first point in the thread, about Dareus. He made the comment in TC about preferring to just get after the QB instead of making a bunch of reads and/or other responsibilities. The guy has the ability to beat a guard off the ball, take him off balance, getting enough leverage to let his pure power to take over. But to me at least, he looks like he's continuously in 2 gap protection, is usually head up on an OL and isn't given the chance to use his speed/power combination. In other words, he's been neutered and relegated to a space eater. And that's just a bad idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Bill- Merry Christmas to you and your family. As fas as the game, I've been done for two weeks and just had time today to grab a beer with my dad, but don't care at this point. Next week and the finale, eh. Win-Lose whatever. We're still less than average, and regressed from last year. That's saying a lot since it was Maroon. I don't care if they lost a bunch lately, I'd still take Dan Quinn over Rex in a heartbeat. I bet Scwartz would have stayed for Quinn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lofton80 Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 12) "The teams we are losing to are so-so at best. We make them look like superstars, especially opposing quarterbacks" This is the piece that amazes me. The bootlegs in the first quarter were eating up yardage. Gruden has featured bootlegs passes at Cinci and Wash yet we looked ill prepared. It makes you wonder what goes on during the week to prepare for the opponent. A Redskin offense that managed twice in the last month to post 250 yards offense put up 431 against the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
