Cut Tre. It’s time. He offers nothing to this roster anymore. 
 

Swap Thompson for Milano full-time if his boob hurts again. 
 

Figure out what we’re doing with Samuel/Codrington and trade the one we don’t keep 

I’d love to see what a combination of Thompson and Dorian Williams looks like. I might be on an island but I love Dorian Williams. And he’s exactly what this defense is lacking. A fast physical tone setter that makes offenses uncomfortable. Im tired of keep it infront of you ***** *****. Go hit someone

I'd keep Samuel.  He might be the only WR besides Shakir than even has a slice of rapport with Allen out there.   I noticed last night they used our best hands guy, Shakir, as a punt catcher.  I know they don't want him getting blasted on punt returns.

Burn the phones up for a WR trade. 
 

We have way too many holes on Defense to plug up. 
 

Were a WR upgrade away from having an unstoppable Offense.  The only weakness we have is at outside WR.  That’s it.  We’re above average to elite everywhere else. 
 

Defense could use a DT, DE, LB, S and CB2.  We have Hoecht and Ogunjobi coming back, along with whatever Hairston can be.  And while CB2 has to be addressed, we’re not a CB2 away from fixing this.  
 

Give the Offense what it needs to be elite and change the philosophy on Defense to be a boom or bust unit.   No more of this 7-8 minute drive ending in a TD garbage that both shortens the game and results in a touchdown.  Take chances, knowing this team is Offense driven.  

It’s the best chance we have to win this year and then hope and pray Hairston can get on the field at some point and/or we find a CB2 before the deadline.

Wonder what the titans would want for Ridley

[27yankees]

1. Some serious tackling classes.

2. Maybe move White away from corner, start transitioning him to safety or onto the PS.

3. Change the attitude, hope they felt the humbling from lastnight. Put that killer instinct back into the offense. It's as if the staff knows defense is weak and are purposly trying to keep them off the field. 

4. Trade the assets and get a top notch WR/Corner/Safety.

This 100%.  Teams just take what we give them, move the chains, chew up clock and keep Allen off the field.  It's maddening.  McDermott just prays we get a takeaway or big sack to thwart the drive.  But that doesn't happen on every series as we know well.

sounds like we lost milano again for a while.

 

It would be great if someone in the secondary could make a play on a ball.  Erik Turner just said on his podcast with sal that the bills have the lowest pass breakups in the league.  They have only 2 for the year.  A league Low.

 

Defense is going to make this team have to score in the 30's going forward.  Such a bummer.

You watch other teams, and their DBs break up passes.  Opposing WR usually have lots of room(yet our WR rarely have lots of room).  But the rare times a Bills defender is near the thrown ball, I can’t recall any making a play.  Terrell made a great read on his int, and almost again last week.  Our CBs and Safety’s are not doing any pass breakups.  It’s puzzling and infuriating

Juat last   week we saw a great  INT by Cole Cishop just saying. One handed at that

I feel like they are taught to not let the receiver get behind them and make the sure tackle to live and fight another down (without getting burned on a long score).  I mean we just give up 6 yard TD runs like a knife through butter,  but hey they don't give up the long bombs!

Ingram over White.  It honestly can’t be worse. 
 

Once Hairston gets up to speed (if he gets up to speed), White should be on the PS in a Poyer role. 

 You are talking about a guy that could not take a single snap from Elam in the afccg. I don’t know why they even lest him as a corner.  Should be listed as ST.  I agree he could not be worse, and would at least make receivers pay for making a catch. 

[muppy]

I want to know if there is a way to minimize mental errors to reduce valid penalties

 

a coach can coach all day but what the player does on the field isn't on coaching perse in that moment of foul

 

is it?  Is it?

[TheyCallMeAndy]

Top realistic thing we can do this week is heal up our injured guys and get Larry O and 55 up to speed as fast as possible. 
 

[MJS]

1) Bench Taron Johnson.

2) Get the penalties under control.

3) Somehow get the missed tackles under control. But I don't see how.

4) Use the running backs in the passing game. The Bills were the best team in the league last year at that. Now they never do it. Not one target to a running back against the Pats.

5) Play Shaq Thompson more. He is their best linebacker.

Williams has been terrible this year. He gets fooled on every play, has no feel for coverage, and makes way too many mistakes.

Yeah, he just doesn’t have a strong game sense yet I feel. He isn’t quick to hit gaps or sniff out misdirections.

Freaking embarrassing we still have all these holes on D with all the constant investment there. 
 

I agree on receiver though. Should’ve been doing this anyway. Give your stud QB weapons and hope the D gets at least a little better by playoffs with the young guys gaining experience and we get Hoecht back from suspension. I’m not expecting Ogunjobi to be anything other than a fence post. 

[stlbills13]

I would like to see anyone other than Tre White at CB2. I love the guy. But he's just not close to the answer. 

 

I would like to see more runs to the outside for Cook

 

I would like to see Kincaid be basically forcefed the ball. He can be a difference maker

 

I would like to see anyone actually complete a tackle. 

[D. L. Hot-Flamethrower]

3 of our veteran starters in the secondary are our worst by Passer Rating. Benford 122.0! are you kidding me for that money, T.Johnson 105.7 and White 93.7! Plus the entire defense has only 2 pass breakups. Better hope we can acclimate some of our younger better athletes into McDermotts complex scheme.

They called sooo many shot plays last night. I was calling them out in the game thread. There were at least 7 called shot plays. Josh isn't throwing them because the receivers are not getting open. You can't try and stretch the field with these receivers. They are jank.

 

They're running shells most of the night; he's not going to throw balls into that coverage just for the sake of doing it.

[SectionC3]

Play faster.  We play very slowly.
 

On D, we miss Oliver and hoecht.  Maybe Benford travels with WR1.  I don’t care about field/boundary.  Diggs was a wrecking crew and he ate White’s lunch.

Two games in a row where we trotted out a downfield passing attack as the gameplan.

Hopefully Brady is seeing that it doesn't matter who is throwing the ball, if the receivers are covered and can't get open.
