Southern Bills Fan Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 He definitely has been beaten more this year than last. I think the whole defense will rebound. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuncha Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 The entire D is playing very "meh". It almost seems like they are confident the offense will bail them out....The D-Line was nowhere today. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Sack Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 When a team comes from behind they will throw at all targets that are open. To me White is simply playing the concept of the defense which is to keep everything in front of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BananaB Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 The defense doesn’t look the same, it not jus Tre. To be honest, defenses around the league all look pretty bad. Maybe it’s the no preseason. Hoping we tighten up shortly 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Real McClappy Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I think the lack of crowd noise is playing into this big time, 12th man is real. I think we need a true leader on D as well. 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvbillsfan Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I’ll agree. He hasn’t looked all pro by any means. But I’ll continue to bet on him and our defense. We will get better in that regard. I have no doubt in my mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I love White as a person but I would rather spend that money on a DT,DE,OT, WR, OLB. I think I saw White covering Everett today 3 times when he should've been glued to Woods or Kupp. I'm not a big fan of giving the CB position that kind of money, I would rather draft, develop and trade or franchise at that position.

Logic Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 The entire D is not up to snuff. Hell -- defenses across the entire LEAGUE are not up to snuff. For whatever reason, the lack of offseason, preseason, and fans in the stands seems to have hurt NFL defenses more than offenses. Things will even out over time, I think. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you and totally agree. All that we can do is look at what is different. No Lorax? No Phillips? No Shaq? No Star? No Crowd? We are getting destroyed right know up the gut. Edmunds is totally hit or miss in run support. From above all I can see is the leadership in Lorax missing, Star hurt and lack of Crowd. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaw66 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I think the offenses all around the league are ahead of the defenses. Jalen Ramsey looked like an idiot on one TD pass. The OCs know how to attack the defenses right now. Give it a few more weeks, it's going to get tougher to pass. For the Bills, too. These are important games to win, before the season turns into the usual November December dogfights. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do The Reich Thing Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 White has been underperforming, so has Edmunds. Whatever “Tre” you’re taking about lol. As stated by many, the whole defense is subpar right now. Defenses around the NFL are getting torched. Idk what Is going, but I have faith in the skill, coaching and intelligence of this defense that they’ll figure it out in the next couple weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan in Cleveland Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Tre is the least of their problems. No pass rush all day except on a nicely execute blitz by Milano. Running right at Harrison, Epenesa, and Murphy for huge chunks of yardage is a major problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not missing Phillips per say, but they could use a top tier pass rusher and/ penetrator on the D line. Also doesn’t help that Star is out....

Even when they let them finally practice it was with such limited contact - very hard to get a rhythm on defense and conversely allowed offense time to gel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
