[TFBillsfan]

Not a good look by McDermott to challenge when it was clearly a backwards pass.

I’m asking a serious question. Who did they change on the defensive staff? I wasn’t aware.

Ryan Nielsen (senior defensive assistant)

Mike Pellegrino (nickels coach)

Jason Rebrovich (assistant defensive line)

Chris Tabor (special teams coordinator

 

Will Greenberg was named head strength and conditioning coach

Barry Rubin was named senior strength and conditioning assistant

Carter is getting blown off the ball.

No bueno. He was promising the first 5 games prior to injury last year and has sucked ever since. You'd like your 3rd round pick from only a year ago not to look hopeless in the 4th quarter of a preseason game.

Over pursuit.  Easy TD.

[Comebackkid]

all that intensity in the scrimage earlier must have worn them out

[Bangarang]

Bears obviously game planned endlessly for this game while we are being very vanilla.

Carter is shockingly bad. He's getting stonewalled by 3rd string IOL.

I just told you where they made changes and within those changes/ additions they have two new coaches teaching different technique.  Playing more man to man in the secondary was the biggest talking point of the defense for months.

 

They also hired a very good special teams coach.  

We play man to man but 10 yards from the receiver. Then we back up as they come off the line to increase the distance. No long plays on us but we'll give you 30 plays for 10 to 15 yards.

Preseason or not it’s sad when you see our guys give up so easily. Oh well. In a month we won’t even remember this nonsense. 

 

Is James stoned already

Usually I’m strongly against AI but I fully support using it this year when deciding when to throw the challenge flag instead of letting McD do it.

38-0....against the Bears....Preseaon or not, this is 💩 football

Was tonight anything except a waste of time?

 

For both teams probably.

McD's challenges are in mid season form

 

He won one early in the game, but whatever.

Who was that?

 
Hancock, Hoecht and Walker made some plays. 
 

Didn’t say it was consistent. 

[Maine-iac]

Cooks edibles already kicked in.  Not ready for that question.

[SoCal Deek]

Pam Oliver is even mailing it in! 😂

[Billz4ever]

Carter had the RB run right past him on that TD and couldn't shed the 1v1 block.  The fact he's still playing late in the 4th qtr isn't a good sign for him.

Thanks.

Not being a distraction 😂

I feel like the Bills read this board then make a plan for pre-season games. "Oh, you like <insert backup/fringe player here>? Let's show you why that player won't make the team for the next 3 hours."
