I’m saying it’s utterly ridiculous to come on here (not you, the poster I quoted) and claim we have only focused on defense the last 5 years and therefore it’s a mistake to give any attention the defense this off-season. We absolutely need to also address the OL. I disagree we need more speed, our offense was plenty explosive. I’m all for more speed, just saying the Achilles heal on offense was always our OL more than anything. Fix that and we are all the top offense in the NFL next year. We have needs to address on both sides of the ball this off-season. we do need more speed, but perhaps mckenzie can be that speed. a fast back would be nice, but way less important. a TE2 is a bigger need, and we still need at least one interior lineman. an OG who can play C would be perf. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need 2 yards to completely ice the game with 13 seconds left Going for 2 would have kept the teams mind set in an aggressive mode rather than kicking the extra point and trying to hold on It would have been one damn gutsy call though 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he returns it to the 20 or so 4-5 seconds are going to come off the clock and it's 1st and 10 at the 20-25 with 7-8 seconds left. At that point KC is not getting into FG range in time. I think that was the plan, but Bass was a bit too amped up and hit it a touch too hard, sending it into the end zone. If the returner busts off a long return, even to the 50, there's going to be like 3-4 seconds left. this is where I am with it... The deep coverage call was a direct result of Hill taking that pass to the house. That is the unicorn of their team and forces you to make a choice - don't lose on a ridiculous Hill highlight TD or torching everyone vs maybe they have a shot at a long FG. If it goes in we give it a go in OT, if they miss we win.... The ballsy call would have been to go for 2 instead of to force them to get a TD, the poison is not making it and having the long FG beat you.... I mean I get it...revisiting the calls do nothing for us at this point. The question is we are right there with them, what do we do to get ahead of them? Defensively Not sure there is much you can do in one offseason with the players we have (drafted for scheme) and cap commitments. Does being more blitzy (risk vs reward) move the needle that? Does playing more man against KC or other high powered offense make sense? Where do you get a Garret, Bosa, Mack, Watt etc from? Upgrading Levi is going to be very difficult. @dave mcbride mentioned the Connor Orr article about the lack of CBs in CFB the other day - they are going to get harder to find and players like Levi will see there market value go up based on the poor supply in the pipeline.... Offensively, get more stout and score on every possession is much easier.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reed83HOF Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 1 hour ago, SCBills said: The Offense was unstoppable in the Playoffs, in part, because Josh Allen Unleashed is a viable option when it comes time to do or die. It's not viable to play him like we did against KC, game in/game out. This game needs to be played in Orchard Park next year. To get there, we need to aim for the 1 seed and win the necessary games needed in the regular season. If we want to draft a RD1 CB, I'm good with it. That makes complete sense, and I believe helps us beat KC. After that, when it comes to FA and the Draft, unless there's some magic to be made to bring in an elite level pass rusher... for the love of God, give Josh Allen the necessary help for an 18 week Regular Season. That means the rest of the offseason focus should be on bolstering the OL and more speed on Offense. Well said! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvlevydraftdaygenius Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 1 hour ago, Alphadawg7 said: Allen, Diggs, Devin, Knox, Moss, Ford, Brown. Guess you missed those. Also missed the fact that teams are built all over the draft, not just first two rounds. Also missed all the offensive free agent signings. We have actually addressed offense as much or more than defense. You just want to cherry pick certain picks while ignoring other draft picks, free agents, and trades. You are literally factually incorrect. Not even opinion conversation, there are literally no facts that support your case we have only addressed the defense for 5 years. What picks were they Einstein ? Are you telling the Bills should trade every year there First, Second, Third round picks for fourth, Fifth, Six round picks. Every Other teams GM’s would love you “Yeah you don’t need your first, second, third round picks give them to us because you have fourth, fifth and a six round”.

Reed83HOF Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 1 hour ago, TheFunPolice said: Chances are almost 100% that Chiefs are going to try to get into FG range, not a TD. So you play normal defense there. Maybe 1 safety way back. The big play is really the first one with 13 seconds left. They are going to try to get around 20 yards. Even if they want to throw a hail mary the next play, they are going to want 20-25 yards the first play to set it up. They aren't going deep on play #1. Way too risky and then they're basically screwed if it doesn't work being 75 yards away with like 7 seconds left. So you play it like it's 4th and 20. Don't let them get an easy one there. If they go over the top and somehow beat you then they beat you. It's way, way, high risk for them. Like I said, one thing goes wrong for them there and it's 2nd and 10 at their own 25 with 6-7 seconds left. Then what? You stop them on 1st down with 13 seconds and you win the game. We played like it was 4th and 20 and we were fine with them picking it up. The big play was really Hill's TD and the entire D getting torched by him again. I get the call, the following play leaving Kelce that wide open was execution and I'm not sure if the call came into Edmunds to say chip him or not, he easily also could have failed to execute the play call and toss out the reminders... The toothpaste is out of the tube already, learn from it and move on at this point... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caution on this part, every team has draft busts and you never really know how anyone turns out.
