San-O Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 (edited) Rushing defense, on display AGAIN yesterday. Ranked 29 in the league, rushing yards / game. That's basically the front 7, correct? After a D heavy draft and signing a few true FA gems. Couple really great pick ups. Seriously. http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorystats?seasonType=REG&offensiveStatisticCategory=null&d-447263-n=1&d-447263-o=1&d-447263-p=1&d-447263-s=RUSHING_YARDS_PER_GAME_AVG&tabSeq=2&season=2016&role=OPP&Submit=Go&archive=false&conference=null&defensiveStatisticCategory=RUSHING&qualified=false Offense has been an issue and the QB / passing game obviously, however if the Bills were not horrible up front, they probably would be in the playoffs in a couple weeks. You can't have bad run defense and a not too bright head coach, as we saw yesterday. It's just too much to overcome. 2 rushing plays after Rex gave the ball back to Miami - almost 80 yards RIGHT there - game over. IMO.

MAJBobby Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Yeah it was and is bad and a scheme change would fix it. Glad the offense couldnt put points on the board when they needed to like so often in this season because i means buh bye rex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be related to #2 ST is often overlooked. Yesterday the fish had 2 big returns. One set up the tying field goal. That botched kick coverage killed us. Also, it would help if Carpenter could boot it out of the end zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWATeam Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Some real good tackling as wellYep. The loss boils down to tacking, special teams and the refs. And we almost overcame all of that with stellar play from Tyrod, the running game, Clay and Sammy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCbillsfan Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 (edited) Run defense Bad tackling Lack of depth 2 minute offense bad Special teams Passing game Defense doesn't get enough turnovers Attention to detail in all phases Edited December 25, 2016 by DCbillsfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Im going to lump everything D with the head coach..... So I would say.....even though 5th in the league in scoring points? Lack of ability to be explosive scoring (scoring quickly) hurt us..... This has to be biult into our offense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
