Dadonkadonk Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Everyone on this board is screaming about the QB. Six straight scoring drives by the Patriots. 37 points. The DL is far far worse than last year and the LBs are terrible. They need a near complete overhaul of the front seven. Outside of Lawson, Milano, and maybe Hughes, the remaining front 7 needs to be replaced. That is the entire core of the defense - two DTs and a MLB along with an OLB. You want to move on from TT, then get a QB in FA. They need the entire draft to fix the defense. And that doesn't even address back-up RB, starting TE, and the OT spot if Glenn can't get healthy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 When you don't have a Franchise QB nothing is a more pressing need than finding one. Nothing. The D-line is the 2nd most pressing need I agree. And we are a bit talent deficient at the linebacker spots... but a good D-line can make average linebackers look a lot better. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Curt Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 I also agree about the DL and the LB group. How ever QB is the most pressing need. I for one am tired of the constant complaining about Tyrod Taylor on this board. I agree that he's not the QB the Bills need now or in the future, but the constant cries for Peterman especially after his 5 pick game and his concussion makes me sick and I'm tired if hearing it. Peterman s simply not ready. Most Rookie QB's aren't ready as rookies. The DL especially needs a major upgrade. It's the worst group this team has right now. In order to beat the Pats, pressure has to come from four and drop seven. The Bills simply are unable to do that right now with the team presently constructed. The LB's don't add any pass rush either. Lo Alexander is not in the right defense to utilize his skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
par73 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Agreed. QB, DL and LB should be the top priorities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubes Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 I can't disagree, but our offensive line has been looking pretty bad lately, too. Ducasse and Mills? Oy. Even Wood hasn't looked good the past couple of games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan3482 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 I don't know what the 49ers defense ranked or what position they need upgraded. But 1 guy walked in and changed the whole teams performance and gave them 4 straight wins. We can nit pick ever position and blah blah blah. I want a smart qb who isnt afraid to throw it around. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they don't, the defense is fine, we need one run stuffing Tackle and we will be elite. We held them down for 3 quarters but got worn down , offense needs to do there part.

Nitro Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 D line and LB are wanting. 19 rushing TDs and 122 yards per game is the hall mark of a bad defense. Need infusion of talent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Madness. That’s what this team has done forever. No just no 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 If you don’t have a QB, you can’t win it all. Try to be great. After QB, build both sides of the line. Then work out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfanmiami(oh) Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Good QB makes everything else go away. If we don’t find one, we’ll keep toiling away in mediocrity. Remember a couple years ago when we had the best D line in football? How’d that work out? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the pass rush would be better with a great DT, but I'm not against getting more defenders it's just not more important than QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 so because 4 games exist with garrpoloplol playing QB he's amazing? the bills have a ton of needs across the team, including WR and OL but the LB's are terrible - not a single one of them is NFL calibre. and our DL is in shambles - Dareus wouldn't have made much of a difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
