Ramza86 Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Vrabel pretty much played his defense the same way the Pats have been doing against us. They forced allen to either take the safe short pass or force it downfield to a WR. Allen has had a hard time against this style of defense. Daboll has to come up with a gameplan specific to this defense or we could be losing this division to the Pats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Allen didn't play terrible last night but he looked off kinda like the whole team did. Lots of drops. Balls bouncing for INTs. One bad throw for an INT. Definitely missed Brown. Bills will rebound I am not worried about that but the defense needs answers from somewhere and I am not sure they have any right now.

SCBills Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 If Allen studies the tape and doesn’t force it against this type of defense, we’ll be fine. Allen was off, but in looking back at last night, his “off” is still good enough to win games. What’s kind of a “double whammy”, is the fact our defense is currently one of the worst in the league. Allen’s nature is to be aggressive... we can game plan him to take the short, open stuff in a close game and pick his shots, but it’s much more difficult to do that when you get behind and know, in the back of your head, the defense will let the opposing team take 5-7 minutes of the clock and then score almost every time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am more concerned about the defense especially considering who is coming to OP on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldmanfan Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 We need Milano and Tre back on Monday to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I actually don’t think the Pats will copy this scheme. I think they play a lot of man, and Allen historically actually plays much better against zone than man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveorhatembillsfan4life Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Offense is the least of our worries.. we need to figure out something on defense fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Quint Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Let's hope that we have Moss and Brown back for that game. The cover 3 they were playing took away the deep stuff because all we had was Diggs and they doubled him. They cant double Brown and Diggs unless they leave the middle open. For whatever reason, we couldnt run the ball last night which would have exposed that defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not worried about Allen and our offence against NE, even on a off night Allen still managed to move the sticks and score points. Just look at the 3rd down efficiency, it was lights out and how many drop passes did we have? The pass to Yeldon for a TD was a rocket and maybe one of two others players in this league could make. Had our defense made some stops or even create a turnover or two this game would have been different, end of the day the Titans never shut Allen and the Bills offence down.

Royale with Cheese Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I don’t know what the final stat was but at one point we were 11 of 15 on 3rd down. That’s pretty damn good. We hurt ourselves. I think 3 of TN TD’s were inside the 30. We gifted them those TD’s in the form of turnovers. Plus we had 10-11 penalties? That 3rd and 2 is now 3rd and 7 or 12....still converted the majority. If NE plays the defense TN did, as long as we don’t shoot ourselves in the foot, we will be fine on offense. Defense is another story.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell after facing Seattle and KC we are still number one in passing D. The Pats strength is the secondary, which is a matchup against your strength the passing game.. they as always should be good games! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
