Huge shout out to the Bills D

Recommended Posts

Impressive play by the Bills D after getting down 20-3 to shut out the Baltimore D and come up with the huge turnover in the EZ.  

 

Poyer

Lawson 

Milano 

 

Could list more but those are the ones I thought stood out.  Without the D this comeback is not possible and should get a game ball with how well they kept fighting.  How about doing this with some key guys out on IR.  They will only get stronger

 

Way to go Bills....... GO BILLS!!!!!!!!!

To be fair, 10 of the 20 points Ravens scored were really the result of the offense not really the defense.  They only gave up one real TD drive and played a great overall game.  They kept Lamar in check again.

They let up two real drives.  The last one was stopped w the int.

 

Looking at the games this season, our d allows two real drives a game.  We aren't getting trucked as bad as we did last season at times either.

 

Some of the stats are better for the O, and Josh really is our whole team, but the D is the better squad this season.

Could not agree more. The offense did them no favors in the first half and they hung in like champs. Bend but don’t break and contained Lamar as much as you can in that situation.

And we locked him up at a great price too.

absolutely....Beane has done a gret job of getting ahead for the most part on getting guys signed to some really good contracts

 

I trust he has a good plan with Poyer as well, specially with the Hyde injury that I hope is not similar to other players with neck injuries that they end up retireing.

Every game this year the opposition has gone 3 and out on their opening 2nd half possession(and maybe their first 2 actually). 

 

3 of the 4 games they have not allowed a single point in the 2nd half. Miami got 7 on us and that has been it.

 

Bills D still has not allowed a 300 yard game..296 by Baltimore with only 134 passing. They were the first team that gained more than 250.

 

Those numbers are absurd.

We are the number one D in the league and we are doing this against the good teams on our schedule.  This isn't like last year.  We are truly elite now.

And that drive in fairness was mainly Greg Roman being freaking awesome. He is such an underrated coordinator and that was a brilliant drive. He is so creative but nobody gives credit for creativity in the run game.

 

They had one drive each half and second half we held on 4th down.

Credit to Beane and the staff in drafts and bringing in players on good contracts to help with the depth that is seen on this D Line

 

In the not so far away future White gets health Benford will eventually get on the field it just makes me smile that the Bills will have White, Jackson, Benford, Elam that is going to make this D even more versatil and will be interesting to see what Frazier schemes up

Two weeks of short field TDs for the opponents after turnovers. nice to overcome this one.

Remember when some people were complaining that they paid Milano $10m a year ? 

 

Milano is one of my favorites. He reads offenses like I haven't seen before. Reminds me a bit of the Biscuit. He always knew when to fly to the ball.

Also a shout out to Jackson.  He made a big play and it was really good to see him back and healthy.

 

Wait til we get Ed and Philips back.  That line with them in the game is world class.

I am always thinking positive , but true enough , this team will just get better as the season rolls and young guys get reps and the injured become healthy.

Settle , Emili and Jones did a nice job today against a brutal offense to defend !

Underated candidate for play of the game. 1st and goal for the Ravens at the Bills 1 yard line with 5 mins to go. 

 

The Bills lineup with 6 D-Lineman, not their traditional 4-2 nickel that they seem to play in short yardage, even on the goal line. Milano stuffs them for a big loss, and forces them to abandon the run.

There was a series or 2 in the 2nd quarter between or after the turnovers where the D showed a ton of heart. They could have folded but didn’t. Ravens had hard-earned yards the entire game, nothing given. Kudos to them.
 

LBs get a lot of credit but the secondary did well too. DL admirable against run and pass.

So far, D has only allowed 7 points in the 2nd half

The announcers said that Allen told them, he wasn't feeling back to normal till Friday.  If it took till Friday before he felt he was normal, likely internally he and many others still haven't 100% recovered completely from last weeks sauna but seem ok.

 

Is good to pull this one out, with all the injuries, assuming next week they win shorthanded at home, even with a loss in KC, that leaves them at 4-2 and have the bye.  After the bye White could be back and many of these minor nicks should be back to normal.

Tennessee has been looking pretty OK in the two games since they played us...
