Starr Almighty Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Was Elam wearing a yellow flag as a jersey because I saw plenty of 3rd downs converted due to the yellow flag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solomon Grundy Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 6 minutes ago, Beast said: I thought they picked on Jackson in the 1st half and Elam in the 2nd. Regardless, we are hurting at Corner and Linebacker and our offense stunk up the United Kingdom. Our defense had only given up 11 through 3 quarters. They just ran out of gas late. Whoever was on Ridley got beat 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a fair criticism We had bigger issues that include offence, injuries etc. But Elam did look bad out there 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBrownBear Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 4 minutes ago, BigDingus said: The dude had 11 tackles today. Is that impressive, or is that an indictment of how he was targeted all day, and how many times his guy caught the ball? I think that could be it. He heard the whispers about his commitment to tackling and wanted to prove us wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dma0034 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I mean he played a lot of man against Ridley. Ridley is a monster. Wish the Bills would have traded for him. Ofcourse he was going to get beat. Bills were missing half of their starters on Defense half way through the 1st Quarter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solomon Grundy Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Ridley is considered one of the best route runners in the game!! I'm not going to overreact to Elam's performance. Bad penalties, injuries and offensive play calling hurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuckyBoys Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Ridley is pretty good Elam needs few games of reps Dude sat 4 games Hopefully light goes on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koufax Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I thought Elam played better than the outcome of the plays he will be beat up on. Needs to play better and some flaws, but some good throws against him. Tre isn't coming back this season, so right now I am optimistic and glad to have him, even if he isn't going to be a superstar any time soon.

HoofHearted Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 8 minutes ago, dave mcbride said: Yes, Doug Pederson implemented the Kaiir Elam plan. I also think his badness is why the Bills blitzed so much - whoever he was covering was going to get open. We blitzed because we weren’t getting any penetration with 4. Multiple opportunities for coverage sacks today but couldn’t even collapse the pocket. What’s disheartening is Kaiir was put in position as that boundary corner to be in mostly man situations but lost leverage or didn’t understand what leverage to play with many times. However, lack of execution offensively is why we lost this game. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBonhamRocks Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I feel like I saw Ridley catch the ball 5-10 yards downfield on the sideline in front of Elam - and this is just an estimate - but around 25-30 times today 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure there’s anybody on the roster who was gonna cover him today without leaving Kirk and engram open all day. I didn’t jump in here to defend Elams play or make excuses for him. I just thought there were much bigger takeaways from the loss than Elams struggles in his first game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridley has been super quiet though the last few weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank God 7 was okay. Just pray for Milano because we need him down the stretch. What a catastrophe that game was beyond the loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
