I don't possess the football IQ that many of you on here are blessed with, so please take my comments with a grain of salt, and know this is simply my humble opinion. I feel like Frazier's biggest problem is his lack of adjustments, and what seems like his downright refusal to abandon the nickel D, even when teams are running the ball straight down our throat. I believe you even mentioned at one point the Jets ran the ball eight straight times! Now I get the Packers game, because even with us up by double digits in the 4th quarter the Packers continued to run the football, essentially giving us the game. But other than that, I don't understand. And this is not an issue that started this season. This issue has reared it's ugly head in previous seasons. I would guess the counterpoint to your argument would be the D only gave up 3 on that drive. The offense had time to get the FG after that. The way Garrett Wilson was burning them, Frazier probably felt his best defense was to limit the big play potential. I’m not in agreement with the above, but just throwing some possible rationale out there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smuvtalker Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 4 hours ago, Big Turk said: JFC now illness is causing multiple guys to be out...could this season devolve into more of a disaster with team health? I know illness is different, but for the life of me I cannot recall a season, ever, with so many injuries. It's ironic that at the beginning of the season, we(and pretty much the majority of the national media as well) boasted having one of the, if not THE deepest rosters in the league. Our depth was outstanding. It has truly, truly been put to the test. I'm really at a loss for words regarding all of the injuries we've had to endure this season. I kept telling myself, "boy, once we get back to full strength, watch out". At this point I've just kinda become numb. I know that every other team is dealing with injuries of their own, and noone is going to award us any pity points, but Jesus H. Christ, something's gotta give here....

newcam2012 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 58 minutes ago, Big Turk said: We don't need to "stop it". Cleveland will not win this game by simply running the ball. Bills simply have to contain it well enough. Anything under 150 yards and the Bills win by multiple scores. Just watch the Jets game or the second half of the Packer game. That's what Cleveland is most likely going to do. Cleveland would love nothing more than to have long sustained drives running the ball and making a few timely passes. Don't discount Chubb breaking off long long runs that might result in a TD. Chubb is the best in the league in doing that. Cleveland best defense may very well be their running game. Thus, keeping the Bills offense on the sidelines. Brisett is capable of using his legs and making a few crucial passes to Cooper and Peoples. At this point, I'm not sure how any Bills fans can be confident goung into this game. The Bills have shown us their weakness vs the run. The defensive injuries have hurt the Bills in every facet of a defense. They were healthy vs the Rams and Tenn. The Bills aren't that team! They are a less talented team now then when the season started. Players and coaches have under preformed and made many mistakes. It's too early to tell but it sure is feeling like the season is or could be slipping away. The big bad Bills are no longer that. This is a get right game for the Bills. Then again didn't we say that for the last two weeks? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tre not only has to recover, but he has to strengthen it to a world class athlete. The last thing Tre needs is to be rushed back before he is up to game speed.

First, Bedford had some good, competitive snaps, and a couple impactfully bad snaps. Second, Lewis had some good snaps in the first half, and some impactfully bad snaps in the 2nd half (before Lewis, it was Johnson). Third, and not mentioned, is Edmunds's injury in the 2nd half; in the 1st he was playing his best half this season, to my eye, before re-aggravating the groin. The loss of both Hyde AND Poyer has proven to be too much to overcome when combined with theinjuries to the #1 CB and one of the starting LBs and one starting DL. That equation has proven fatal (alongside other complications). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching Diggs run vertically up the near sideline towards us then slam on the brakes, breakdown, and begin to turn...and BAM! he got hit with the pass. I had decided to watch him work on that drive, and the trust Allen displayed by throwing the pass BEFORE/AS Diggs broke on the route was startling.

This may be the most I've seen JTO criticize a player of the Bills on any given play in the couple of videos he has done. Thank you for posting this. This cements the fact that saying Allen was the primary reason for this loss is a laughable take. He and Diggs are the only reason we did anything on offense. No schemed easy throws, no screens, poor pass protection, predictable route combinations. It's amazing watching this video how many times there is no one open at the same time pressure gets into the pocket and Allen still somehow turns it into a big play. Over and over again JTO says "where do you want him to throw the ball?" and there's just nothing there. Like he says Allen is carrying the offense up and down the field all game long. It sucks that his worst throw was his last one. That doesn't erase everything he did before that. Honestly my biggest fear is that Allen will internalize that last interception too much and stop playing his style of game. They have to let Josh be Josh, just dial it back in the red zone a bit. And please please please get a run game going. The Vikings on every snap are dropping everyone deep into passing lanes because they know we won't punish them for it. It's been four years of this crap. They have to fix it. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
