Let’s talk D

[wjag]

I think I have all but given up on the notion that the D is fixable.  Too many current injuries and too many past injuries have slowed players like Milano, Poyer, Johnson and White.  For the Bills to win, they simply have to be a beast on offense.  It seems to me the only true Buffalo defense is to stay on offense.

 

There probably isn't a person on this board that believes the Bills can stop anybody in 3rd and long.  The lack of a consistent pass rush, poor tackling and poor scheme seemingly get exposed each week.  As my father used to say, it is what it is.

I agree.  All Beane did was get Bosa, Sanders, Walker, Hoecht, Ogunjobi, and Lawson.  I'm surprised Beane still has a job. 

 

Yeah, except Bosa they could be called "the JAG corp".  You forgot Basham.

Walker is a "JAG"?  You don't really watch games very closely I am guessing.

All I know is that our front seven do not stop the run well and lack a pass rush.  Bad combination!  Our DB’s have to make far too many tackles.  

I don't get it. When you want to get a 3rd and short on offense go 6 OL or big package. Almost always works. Well why not do an extra lineman in that situation on defense? This is gonna be the new big thing for teams in the league to counter the resurgence of the run game....and generate pressure all at once.

Can't we be ahead of the curve for once?

 

We all saw what happened with Hoecht...for 7 qtrs. We can't give up on that. Hopefully Fox will do that. I thought we hired some Dline guru?
