Hyde & Poyer. The Best? These guys think so


Recommended Posts

Kinda wack to go off gross stats over the last 3 seasons when Thornhill only played one and Minkah played 2.

 

Other big issue with the passer rating stat is ignoring CB play. Hyde and Poyer have Tre. Chung and McCourty have Gilmore. I’m not even sure who Smith and Harris have? Is Xavier Rhodes still playing. 

 

Hyde and Poyer are good. I would have them arguably in the top 4 S duos in the NFL.

The NFL loves stars. Since neither of these guys is a true star, they don't get the appreciation as a duo that they deserve.  

I think they get recognition. Especially Hyde.

I mean, I think you can agree that Hyde is not regarded as a "star." 

He's a "superstar" in Madden (not that it means much).

 

But I'm not sure either of them deserve to be considered stars. They are both solid starters that work well together. With them it's kind of a "the sum is greater than the parts" kind of thing.

 

As a tandem they are great, but I don't think individually either of them are star potential.

Don't tell "DJ Johnny Rich" how to do stats!

Excellent duo, but they do miss a lot of tackles.

 

Yet they MADE far more tackles than any other duo. Look again at the numbers.  Every team/player misses tackles. Very pleased with them.

PFT did a draft of best safety tandems last week and never mentioned BUF.

 

I think the next day they apologized for overlooking them, admitting they messed up.

The stat totals are misleading regarding the 17-19 tag line. For example; Minkah and Edmunds don’t even have a full season together. 
 

I agree these two are great together, but I’m not sure what the arbitrary raking stuff does other than generate clicks.

No go do the same thing for each of the other tandems mentioned on this list so we can compare coverage meltdowns Weo! :w00t:

 

You glass half empty guy you! :)

 

He is is not a half empty guy.  He cuts out the bottom of the glass and then blames the waitress and asks for refund and damages.

I will just say, as a whole: the Bills secondary is the best in the NFL. All together. Between Tre, Johnson, Norman, Wallace, Gains, Poyer, Hyde etc. As a unit, the Bills secondary is the best in the league IMO.


I’m interested in seeing how Wallace and Norman play this year.  If they play well and we stay healthy (knock, knock) then the secondary could be very special.

Guess.  Weo, you do bring it on yourself, but I still like ya bud.  What did someone else say, a little snarky at times.  You also bring a lot of very good points and make some funny jokes at times.  Anyway, Weo, Soc, Limeaid, have a good Sunday and a little levity to the board when needed.

Hyde was a nobody until he came into McDermotts system

 

that is whats so special about McD. He can turn average players into elite ones. as long as he is here our defense will be one of the best in the league. 

 

Hyde was NOT a nobody, he was a Swiss army knife in Green Bay and many Green Bay fans were unhappy with his loss.  He was able to do multiple things which is why he was targeted by Bills.
