Einstein Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 This is not a complaint, just a question. Trying to learn if perhaps there is a good reason why we don’t. It makes sense to me that if you chuck the opponents receivers, it can disrupt timing routes and timing offenses. It can make a QB hold onto the ball for an extra half second and that can be the difference between a sack and a completion. But the most i’ve seen the Bills defense do is play press. I can’t recall seeing them get physical and chuck the WR. Is there a reason why? 3 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WotAGuy Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Bills are primarily a zone team, so they play off, typically. You need a specific skill set to bump or disrupt a receiver so that may play into it too. 7 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the casual fan, the guys you always hear about are Ramsey, Diggs, Howard, Slay. Even guys like JC Jackson seem to have gotten more press over the last few years. Maybe I have been living under a rock, though?! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might also be that most of the air time on Green Bay is sucked by the attention seeking prima dona they have at Quarterback. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nextmanup Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I hav been frustrated that we tend to leave Kelce alone in particular. Being extremely physical with him at the line is the best way to try and control him. 7 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have done it less since Tre got hurt last year. Partly because they have been trying to protect their less experienced and talented corners. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it was from the past but I actually had it saved lol we do try occasionally… the only problem is tre is coming back from injury … and getting his hands on guys at the LoS is still a work in progress It’s very hit or miss at the NFL level with that aggressiveness… if you don’t get successful hands you will get burned Dane doesn’t really have the ability… Elam does 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsbackto81 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 If you bump the receiver you better divert him inside. If you allow them to get past you up the seam you're cooked against someone like Burrow. Is that a chance you want to take with Hamlin back there? 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Buffalo Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Chucking recievers is generally used when you are doing man to man and leaving DBs on island. I do wonder if we will use it some this week on Higgins due to rotating the defense towards Chase who is scary good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
