Makes me question DVOA. Because without Von the pass rush is non existent.

Your are correct - along with the other geniuses here....In spite of our win loss record, points for vs points against, point differential, defensive rankings, AFCE standing, #2 seed, 4 sacks last week, historically low YPP last week.....The Bills suck...the defense sucks, the pass rush suckd, Frazier sucks

Bengals are a super quick passing offense (Burrow has 2nd fastest release this year) and Frazier loooooves leaving the short stuff wide open. I’m expecting plenty of snaps where one of our DL smokes their blocker but the ball is already out.

And that's why you play more press which we never do.

After watching our #1 defense get shredded with 13 seconds left, I could care less about stats & analytics. The only thing that matters to me IS the smell & eye test.  

Still living that old nightmare, are we?

The fact that Burrow gets the ball out as fast as anyone and that our front 4 is so inconsistent getting home I kinda feel it won't be that big a deal for them. Frazier needs to have our DBs  bump and disrupt the routes at the line and throw off their timing patterns which we hope will make Burrow take more time to find an open guy. Hopefully then our front can take advantage of their OL injuries.

 

Of course it's JMHO.....

We suck...just less than all of the other teams.

You will see more of an impact from Rousseau and epenesa this week.  Kind of a narrative going around that bills edge rush was bad Sunday. Basham actually had a really good day on pressures, but the biggest factor is the Shanahan system is a quick read quick release offense, makes its tough to get to the qb. This week will be different, Burroughs release times say he gets it out quick most of the time but loves looking down feild for chase and holds the ball and will take sacks. I predict we really feel Rousseaus pressence this game.

 

My large concern is there has been some pretty terrible officiating already in the playoffs, Bosa had every right to be pissed. He shouldn't act like child and hurt his team but he was being drug to the ground on 2 td passes directly in front of the refs, game changing blatant no calls. Then the roughing the passer on cousins was mind blowing. There's always bad calls but it feels like it's a matter of time until the bills get a terrible game changing call.

OK then. Next...


If the Bills d-line, in which they spent 2-1st round picks, 2-2nds, and handed out free agent contacts to Jones, Settle, Lawson and Phillips (leaving out Miller for obvious reasons) doesn’t come through this Sunday, you’ll be fine with that?

 

Seriously?

 

The Bills Powers that be put an awful lot of resources into the front 4. If they don’t put up at crunch time please tell

me how that can’t be considered a failure?

 

I’m as big of a Bills supporter as there is here but it’s time for these guys to be a force.

We shouldn’t be rushing 3 more then half the time.  
 

8 guys in coverage needs to be mixed in throughout the game.  
 

Lots of Dorsey play calling understandably but Leslie needs to call a great game.  
 

I think the best called game on D and only game post the bye we’ve had was New England the first game. 
 

We need a well called game on D.

It's going to be a real challenge for the Bills.  Obviously, they have to clean up their execution.  Against Miami, the defensive linen did not get a lot of pressure on Thompson.  They generated some with a little blitzing.  That will be a riskier tactic facing Joe Cool.  They would be far better off if they can generate pressure with the front four.  Regardless of the relative quality of the backups who could be playing next Sunday, they are backups for a reason, and will probably be at least somewhat less effective protecting Burrows and opening holes in the running game than the starters would be.  On the other side, Buffalo looks to be about as healthy as it could be aside from the key players on IR.  From the sound of it, Dane Jackson's injury is a minor one and he may be available.  More importantly, Kaiir Elam played really well in Jackson's absence.  He's obviously been maturing as a player and honing his technique.  Tre White is also improving week to week and may be as close to 100% as we could possibly hope for.  Together they controlled Miami's elite WRs pretty well.  The close score in the Miami game is directly related to the turnovers the Bills had on offense.  That's the Biggest thing the team has to clean up.

Can't wait to watch the Bills get held all game and never have it called.  This happens when you don't have superstar NFL talent on the D-Line: You'll get less holding calls. 

 

No, this happens when the league is hyperconscious about protecting quarterbacks -- particularly pocket passers -- above all else.  The refs will know that Burrow is behind a patchwork line and they'll probably let a few things slide.  We saw all the holding the Miami line did against us.  Get ready for another three hours of that.  The DL just needs to win its matchups and not assume that holds will be called.+

The betting line for the Bengals/Bills game has changed from Cincinnati +4/+140 to +4 1/2/+160 because of the offensive line injuries. I think the line will move even further to +5 or even +5 1/2 if THREE are listed as out (La'el Collins being the guaranteed OUT of course, obviously) as Cappa's status is up in the air..

And this is pretty much what most of us have noticed. Von was having a really solid year and was going to end up with 12+ sacks. Having him on the field also opened things up for everyone else because of the attention he commanded. We miss him tremendously. Another guy who has had an effect on this stat? Jordan Phillips. He hasn't been healthy in quite some time and is a beast in this defense getting pressure from the interior. 

Jordan Phillips will help our pass rush. He and Shaq have tremendous chemistry.

Just had this conversation today - it was about Bosa getting held and whether or not their is a conscious effort to let Oline get away with a bit more holding then normal. 
 

I don’t really care - so long as it’s both ways.

He only helps if he PLAYS. WE NEED HIM.

 

Can't wait to see what his status is tomorrow and after.
