Alphadawg7 Posted January 22, 2023 Posted January 22, 2023 (edited) I recognize Frazier garners respect as a top tier DC and even possible HC candidate. And in a lot ways it’s deserved. But, I’m over his defense. I’ve been over it since last year, he then started to win me back holding together the D through so many injuries. But last week and this week showed his defense is a liability come playoff time, just like it’s always been in every playoff exit we have had. More importantly, his entire defensive scheme is as a DISADVANTAGE in bad weather. Offense already has an advantage in bad weather because they know where they are going on each play. Defenders have to play off a little more in bad weather, and that just completely disrupts our defensive scheme and gives opponents wide open targets to just pick apart Fraziers D. They won’t fire McD after what this team went through this year, but I hop we make a change at DC. NOTE: Also hope we see Dorsey leave so we can get a more seasoned and creative OC in here. No way they fire him, but hope he gets the Carolina job. Sadly I doubt either gets a HC job and doubt either gets fired. Edited January 22, 2023 by Alphadawg7 9 31 4 Quote

streetkings01 Posted January 22, 2023 Posted January 22, 2023 Running his same scheme and philosophy that gets you wins in the regular season, but always and I mean always comes up short in the playoffs! This defense needs someone new, fresh and creative to call plays……the Lesly Frazier defense has run its course in Buffalo! 2 3 4 Quote

Expand I agree, if McD is humble enough he gets rid of Frazier and lets someone come in and run their own defense. Can’t run this mainly zone defense and win in the playoffs Also re Dorsey at least it’s his first year, Frazier doesn’t have an excuse Edited January 22, 2023 by Bray Wyatt 2 Quote

Soft coverage and zero pass rush vs those WRs it was easy to see the mismatch. They’ve missed on DL draft picks and it cost them. 4 Quote
Big Turk Posted January 22, 2023 Posted January 22, 2023 The problem is other team's D might not play as well during the season but steps up in the postseason while ours plays well during the year but then comes up small in the postseason. 1 Quote
Brand J Posted January 22, 2023 Posted January 22, 2023 Whaaaat? This is an Alpha post?! I could’ve sworn you’ve long defended Frazier. I think Lou A, the Bengals coordinator, put on a clinic today. He schemed his chess pieces very well, it was like he knew what the Bills wanted to do and when. That’s a real DC. Meanwhile ours can’t stop the run, can’t stop the pass, can’t stop anything really against a Bengals line that was easily the worst unit left in the playoffs. I’ve been over Frazier and his soft scheme for a couple years now and really thought he should’ve been canned at the end of 13 seconds. The definition of insanity is doing the same over and over and expecting different results. I’ll be pissed if we don’t make a move there and will lose faith in Beane on down. 2 1 2 3 Quote

Lagoon Blues Posted January 22, 2023 Posted January 22, 2023 (edited) Is it really Leslies D? How much of it is Seans and Leslie is running it? Not sarcasm truly asking... I guess what I'm getting at is would anything change with a new d coordinator? Edited January 22, 2023 by Lagoon Blues 1 Quote
