ehfeuh57 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 (edited) They did seem to be giving a lot of 2nd teamers a lot of reps Sunday, so hopefully just that. We wanted to be fresh for KC Edited October 4, 2021 by DrDare 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundancer Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 The Bills also played a lot of run D personnel. Rousseau is more of a pass defender at this point. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 We shutout a team 40-0 and allow 109 yards of offense and are worried about someone on D? C'mon man...be better than this. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Here are snap counts. No one on the DL played more than 51% of snaps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thurman#1 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Yeah, 18 snaps and 38%. It's not a lot. No problem, really. I think people thought he'd be in the running for DROY, and that's pretty tough when you're platooning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDawkinstein Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Game plan and resting guys for KC. It was obvious the moment Poyer showed up on the injury report that the staff would be looking for any excuse to pull starters from this game. Similar thing happened with Milano's hamstring. Any bit of tightness? Pull him and let him rest for KC. I think between being in a more run-heavy defense, and Boogie activated, and wanting to keep rookies fresh for a 17 game season (plus playoff run), added up to Rousseau getting less snaps. Same for Epenesa. Same for a lot of guys. Nothing to worry about. Just a smart coach utilizing a roster that has good depth. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Likely teams are getting enough film on him to know how to defend better. Now it's back on him to figure out what he needs to change up, or Bruce helping him with some suggestions. Could be the same with AJ too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Even yesterday he was causing serious problems for the Texans' running game in the handful of snaps I watched him. He is immovable on the edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any cause for concern? hiding his game tape from the Chiefs and Titans. Other coaches are playing checkers, McD is playing 7-dimensional Mah Jongg here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Junction Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I’m not concerned yet. I think Groot has to find a few counter moves and expand his pass rush repertoire. We should also keep in mind that as bad as the Texans are they do have two first round picks at the tackle spots in Tunsil and Howard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerome007 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 (edited) 43 % and 38 % of snaps. I didn't see him much nor Apenesa, but because it seems they didn't play a lot. Star has been having himself some great games this year. And when was the last time a Bills DL tackled the running back as soon as he was handed the ball? That was awesome. Oliver did it and Hughes was like one step behind ha ha. Impressive. Edited October 4, 2021 by Jerome007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I dont think we've received any further info yet, but reports were that Milano was walking and horsing around on the sidelines the rest of the game just fine, so it seemed very minor. Plus, it just seemed like the theme for this week from our coaching staff, any excuse to pull starters, they were going to take it. I'm not overly concerned until I hear good reason to be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrownBear Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Just how many of the "What's up with [insert player's name]?" threads are we going to have? I'd hate to see what the board would look like if we had stopped scoring when it was 26-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
