MarlinTheMagician Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Man, a few hot takes: 1. Run fits fixed, 2. Lots of pressure all the time now; 3. Less vanilla 4. Looks like last year's D. Take away the turnover-aided TD, we shut them down. 8 points. Wow. If D can match what O has been all year, we could have some fun! Oh, and: 5. Welcome back Matt Milano!!!! 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsCuse Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I love that they've been super aggressive and brought a lot more pressure the last month or so. It has made a huge difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special K Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Lets not forget the "Scoop 6" by Hughes that was blown dead by the Refs for some reason...replay showed it was a clear fumble!! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gravytrain Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Milano being back and a healthy Tremaine Edmunds are making a huge difference. AJ playing strong only adds to return of the D. Fun to watch them getting hot now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newcam2012 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I was worried about our defense. However, that's beginning to lessen. We seem poised to make a nice run in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 That looked a lot like the D from last year...held Steelers to 224 total yards and only 47 on the ground. This is the 3rd straight week at least we held a team to under 100 yards rushing. Bills legit could beat anyone in the NFL right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsfaninSB Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 This makes me way more happy than a 300 yard game by Josh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoPoy88 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Klein waking up has certainly helped. Still would like to see a little more from oliver but he’s playing better too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GETTOTHE50 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 (edited) The defense reminds me of the early 2000s eagles defense when the late great jim johnson was their d coordinator. I believe McDermott was on the staff at some point during that time when Brian Dawkins was their safety. It looks like McD took some of JJs zone blitz schemes.

Doc Brown Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Plus, it was our first defensive touchdown since WWII or something like that. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was stunned there was no challenge. Looked like the Steelers had a recovery too. We did get a couple of breaks last night but that is how it goes.

He’s admitted many of his strategy, and scheme comes from JJ. How he confuses and disguises blitzes from CB and Safeties is right out of his playbook. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
