TailgateChef Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I just thought Rivers responded well to the pressure. He quickly spotted holes in our Zones, stepped up in the pocket when needed, and delivered darts. Our defensive backfield played their tails off to keep us in that one.

They better find a pass rush in their magic hat by next week. Hard to get a pass rush when your players are allowed to be held. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7975 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Rivers is one of the least sacked QBs in the league. They have a really good oline and get rid of the ball quick. We wont face another team like that this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreggTX Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 We need a Diggs for the defense, so to speak. We need that dominating presence on the DL that can be so disruptive. 5 minutes ago, Scott7975 said: Rivers is one of the least sacked QBs in the league.

MJS Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Colts have the best oline in football. The times the Bills did get close Rivers got the ball out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigpen65 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I don't understand the free pass Addison has gotten from fans all year. Hes been absolutely terrible. Might as well or Murphy back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont Stop Billeiving Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 If you remove the Steelers game, Rivers only got sacked 14 times in their other 15 games this year. Their line is amazing and he gets the ball out quick. The frustration is understandable, but the context is super important. Oliver got some pressures, we got a couple passes batted down, and I think they tried to focus on staying in their gaps to stop the run rather than running games/stunts etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we don't use it no more because it won't be as effective since it's on film now. Go Bills!!! Wait, it won't be AS effective as it was today? i don't think I've ever seen a worse pass rush than Bills had today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I am inclined to be a bit kind to our D-Line since they did come thru on the goal line stand. That said, I don’t disagree that our D-Line is not elite. We do need Epenesa, Oliver, Hughes and Addison to step up their play especially on 3rd down and long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 That Colts O-line is amazing, I don't know his name but that RG that is going to the pro bowl was killing anyone in his path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starrymessenger Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Bill’s scheme is to apply pressure with the front four down linemen. Not only is Colt’s line very good but they kept at least 5 guys in pass pro. Good luck with that. Plus Rivers is good against the blitz. Bills did not cover well at all. Lots of blown assignments. Either that or p-poor preparation. Not their finest hour by any means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Franky had them ready w a scheme to beat our d. Half the time rivers wasn't even looking at his wrs, who generally got well covered, backs and tes where there all day. This sorts reminded me of the tenn game, where we handled henry but Tanny Jill murdered us, with timely passes and qb runs. They converted so many consecutive third downs, it drove me mad. The fact that they never got an penalties, and almost never had negative plays was the real rub. After they get to 3rd and 6+, a single hold destroys those drives. I think small changes can help us, but as a team they were our worst match up, mainly because they are without major weakness anywhere, and it was our first playoff game and there were some jitters.

BuffaloRebound Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Wish we had bigger defensive ends. If we aren’t gonna sniff the QB, at least be able to stop the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bills6969 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Rivers has such a quick release. Those 15-20 yard in routes were working today. Felt like playing Brady yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dma0034 Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Colts were a top 10 team in Offense, Defense and Special Teams and the Bills beat them with their C game. What makes their Offense special is their O-Line. Their D-Line and LBs are amazing for D. They were motivated and clearly riding the Underdog bus; they looked motivated. If that team still had Andrew Luck they'd be unstoppable imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golden Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Their O line as we all know are beasts even without their starting left tackle. The referee team we had throws the least amount of penalty flags league wide/ also the Colts O line was mugging Oliver & a few other interior rushers more than a few times.

John from Riverside Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 That was the best offense of line we faced all year and rivers was getting that ball out in two seconds or less the majority of the time that said would not surprise me to see our first round pick go to pass rush next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
