YoloinOhio Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 (edited) This makes no sense - Rex's defense was a fit, McD's isn't? http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/06/11/bills-new-coaching-staff-a-challenge-for-marcell-dareus/ New Bills coach Sean McDermotts defense wont necessarily be as good a fit for Dareus. And as for position coach Mike Waufle? Edited June 11, 2017 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffAlone Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 I fully expect Dareus to have a monster season. Waufle is EXACTLY what he needs. He thrived with tough love in the past. No reason to think his performance won't be duplicated with this staff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeF Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 The article I believe was sourced from this interview on BB.com.. http://www.buffalobills.com/video/videos/Marcell-Dareus-Im-Really-Excited-for-Camp/daafca9d-bf25-4074-8034-a7c86191a041 The system fit was really not the subject. Dareus did say that he won't know for sure about his role until the pads are on at camp. I don't get where PFT thought they had enough to say the system wasn't a fit from what Dareus said??? If you look at the interior DL guys who thrived in this system in Philly and Carolina -- Dareus seems to be a really good fit...quick, nimble, big DL who like to penetrate...

aristocrat Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 so because we have a tough coach it's a bad fit? mcd's defense gets after the qb and i expect this team to lead the league in sacks this year. marcel with double digit sacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlayoffsPlease Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Dareus is a bad fit for his contract. Low value position, high off-field risk, inconsistent performance. Coach can't' fix that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Murica Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Guess they missed the 2014 season where he was unstoppable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Byrd Man Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 In this scheme I anticipate him having a monster year. No read and react, no dropping back into coverage. This is just the D he needs. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer but a beast to deal with physically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 (edited) This headline is so misleading too. The quotes are basically Dareus saying, "It's different. They have high expectations." Somehow the writer is twisting that into, "can they make this work?" Edited June 11, 2017 by Kirby Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow the writer is ctwisting that into, "can they make this work?" Yeah. They're taking his statement "it's been challenging" to mean the defense has been difficult, when he was referring to working with Waufle, but in a good way. Idiots.

H2o Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 So he was a monster in Schwartz's defense, a 4-3, but he is a bad fit for the McDermott version of the 4-3? Makes perfect sense. This system is gonna lead to Dareus' rejuvenation if he keeps in shape and stays healthy. Mr. Big Puff could easily make the Pro Bowl. I think our front 4 will be a team strength this year under proper coaching leading to some really good numbers for thise guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.Biscuit97 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 It was a stupid comment. MD's off the field issues are not a good fit... He smoked weed and drove fast! He is the only person to ever do that! If Darues is right, he will be an animal in this defense. Kawaan Shorts was a monster in this defense and Darues is the better overall talent.

Overall, it's hard to agree because there are rules and he needs to follow them. But: 1). It's kinda funny that 25 year old football players are held to higher standards than professions like doctors and politicians (no drug testing for those careers!). Why is that? 2). MD has seen more death in his family at the age of 25 than most people see in a life time. If smoking fake weed and driving fast are the worst things he does, I will give him a pass. Dareus is arguably the most talented member of the Bills. He can dominant games. Given his family history, he gets more of a pass from me than most players. Hopefully, he makes the most of it.
