Lothar Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 There was a quote from one of the Jets reporters after the game that Fitz felt there was very little motion before the snap by the defense unlike a normal Ryan scheme. She hinted that this might be twin Rob's influence. With all this worry about offense, the attention on D has taken a back seat. But another performance like Thursday and the transformation of this defense from world class to high school level would be complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Made it simple for Fitz to make like Aaron Rodgers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan brothers (cancer) stopped sending any more than 3 pass rushers in the second half of the game, and rolled up their safties into an underneath zone, leaving the corners 1-1 with their assignments, where they were completely mis-matched by much larger receivers in isolation in 5-7 second chunks. It wasn't simplified, it was poorly schemed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan130 Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Defence looked pretty vanilla from what i saw but hard to say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFergy Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Is it possible that we draft dumbass defenders who can't comprehend a defensive scheme? All I heard last year was "this is so complex"....now they dumb the defense down and it still sucks?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beef Jerky Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 If Gilmore learned how to cover Fitz wouldn't have been saying that. Also Fitz is the last person I want talking about defenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 (edited) If Rex stays next year expect first 2 or 3 picks to be defense as usual for all Rex drafts. Edited September 18, 2016 by BuffaloBillsMagic1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same BS as last yr, Ryans Defense is too complicated and difficult to perform unless you have Super Stars to run it, it doesn't work. Our "shut down" corners where on an island all night and got exposed big time. If Rex stays next year expect first 2 or 3 picks to be defense as usual for all Rex drafts. expect massive fan revolt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 they looked awesome under Schwartz hence why we should have hired an Offense oriented head coach not that fat boisterous jerk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But another performance like Thursday and the transformation of this defense from world class to high school level would be complete. There was no pass rush generated, hence D looked pretty ordinary. Bills defense was on the field for 40+ minutes....Our offense sucks. The only issue I had with the D was that they were giving up 3rd 9s consistently.

PromoTheRobot Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I think the front 7 became tired after so many 3-and-outs on offense. Also not helping is missing Dareus so the rotation is shorter. But Gilmore and Darby weren't out of position that often. Fitz made some spot-on-the-money throws, putting the ball where only the WR could get it. It's hard to defend that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you didn't watch the game. The Bills D started the game allowing a 16 play drive by the Jets. The Bills first possession was a quick TD. The D then allowed an 11 play drive that ended the 1st Q. In fact, the Bills had one 3 and out in the first half and came out and scored a TD on their first possession of the second half. The D was gassed because the CB's can't cover man to man and couldn't get off the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Frankish Reich Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Here's one I'm actually gonna defend Rex and Rob on - look how many new players were out there on Thursday. Kind of hard to run complex schemes when the players haven't been around long enough to have even played more than a couple dozen plays alongside each other. I don't however give him a pass on continuing to leave the big WRs isolated on Gilmore/Darby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the reason he was able to make those throws was because he had no pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
