Honestly what do you do moving forward?


Milanos Milano

Recommended Posts

Our offense is already legit. I mean sure we could use some more o-linemen. But we already punt nearly the lowest in the league. Keep drafting defense? We have wasted how many picks there already. Go after FAs? We are already near cap space. It’s so frustrating. I’m the the point where we need to get another star CB as an insurance policy and maybe someone dedicated to be able to guard TEs, and then also focus on o-linemen. If we draft another DE or DT at this point I’m going to be disappointed.

I think we need to get another #2 CB, wallace was getting eaten alive today. Chiefs have a great offense and some of the fasters players in the league so I cant say I blame him. We really missed Tre out there today. 

 

Allen though... we are so lucky to have him.

Cut the old weight on this team - Hughes, Addison, Beasley, etc. 

 

Fire Frazier if no one hires him. 

 

I mean I’m just trying to make sense out of all of this. Supposedly the number 1 defense and yet we can’t stop KC when it matters. Is White truly the difference maker, if so then we absolutely need to get another star CB to play opposite and to have in case of injuries. Definitely a star LB, I’m so sick of Edmunds.

The difference between winning and losing is already just a small margin. Tonight was a case of minute margins. So... just improve

 

As usual, some players will leave, salary cap issues, some will slightly diminish because of age, some will regress, some improve, new draftees...

 

So the Bills can still improve, no doubt, and maybe just enough to get over those damn Chiefs.

 

But that's why you need to win games like TODAY, and why it hurts so much. With the Bengals instead of Tennesse, GB, Bucs... this year really did seem like THE year. Chiefs were the main hurdle, as expected in the offseason... and they remained so.

You take steps to get better and try again next year.

What direction do we go? More pressure on QBs or better coverage? At this point how much better can be make the offense, we already dominate people there. Sure we can get some more linemen to help sustain more drives, but we are already one of the best in the league to do so. So incredibly frustrating.

Absolutely. Wallace is a CB3 at best, Dane Jackson is mediocre so far, Poyer did that stupid thing where he overpursues instead of guiding Hill out of bounds on that long touchdown, etc. Get a better CB to pair with White.

I totally agree.  Edmunds is brutal.  There were numerous times he was not in the passing lane. He just doesn’t get it.  There were times he could have put his hands up and blocked passes but had them at his side.  We need a real MLB

Replace frazier and upgrade the defense.   Linebackers are the top priority in the offseason, add at least two starting caliber players.   Keep milano as a starter and Klein as a backup.  Get rid of Edmunds.

 

After that, I don't know.   

 

Outside of Buffalo being good, NFL is so hard to watch for me.     Terrible officiating across the board, Announcing is all about stories and narrative, excessive commercials.    I am sure that I'll be back next year, I always am, but I have no desire to watch any more games this year and feel like I hit a breaking point with how much I can tolerate tonight.

We need another lock down CB and someone who can dedicate following Kelce and other TEs. That will go a long ways into making us super bowl winners.

Its not that hard to figure out. Look at the QBs they played. They were #1 because the teams they played sucked. Many of us have been saying it all season.

You sweep the division next year and ensure that you have home field advantage.  I think that came in very handy at the end when our defense looked spent.  Traveling does take a toll, not to mention the rest of the home field benefits.

We need faster players on offense and defense

I think they have to hope for some more development from their young pass rushers on the edge and they have to upgrade at corner. You can't match up to KC with Dane Jackson and Levi Wallace. 

 

And then you have to go back to work. Not blow games against bad teams early in the year and make sure that the AFCCG is in Buffalo next year and you are there as the #1 seed. 

 

There will be lots of reactionary calls for firings but that isn't what I'd do. Calmer heads need to prevail.

Yeah, I'm sorry. I've defended him until now but he simply doesn't have it mentally.

We don’t blow games we should win so we can be the #1 seed and be at home. Lost some games in the reg season that cost us. 

False start killed a drive that was 100% home field advantage. We need to beat whoever the equivalent of the Jags are next year...

Getting an elite pass rusher who finishes and gets sacks would be a good start. Easier said than done, though.

 

Let Hughes and Addison walk, for sure. Oliver and Phillips developed nicely down the stretch and they can still improve. White will be back next year.

 

I think this game was lost due to some blunders rather than not having the talent. Obviously we have the talent to hang with the Chiefs. Squib that kick and don't play a horrible prevent defense and the Bills could have won that. Heck, win the coin toss in overtime and Josh would have driven the field to win it.

Edmunds is here next season , if not they are on the hook for his $12 mil option

Wallace is fine as #2 CB, problem is once White got hurt, he was the #1 CB and against KC, he was in trouble.  Do think overall we do need a CB high in the draft as no guarantee Whie will be back in Sept at anywhere near 100%

Addison was solely responsible for 3 big scrambles tonight including the first td.  Guy can't set the edge for nothing.
