[Success]

We really miss Oliver - really hoping for a Burrow miracle & playoff return for him.

This is why the Bills offense has to keep scoring in a game like this because the defense isn't going to do much against a team with a running game. 

Defense ain’t gonna do much against a team without a running game 🤷‍♂️

Put 42 45 and 58 on the field. Idgaf if Bernard is hurt or not. For his sake I hope he is. Get him off the goddamn field he’s worthless

Bills make every team look like they’ve got a running game.

My god is the Bills run defense terrible. The DTs are awful. Houston is a BAD running team too.

[Roundybout]

I genuinely can’t blame scheme. We’re in position. They just can’t tackle for *****

Had they run it 3x they score a TD

Why can't they fix the run D?

I swear I’ve seen better production quality in D-3 games.

This run defense is actually painful to watch. It's like trying to stop a freight train with a stern finger wag

Comparing our Defense to a stern finger wag is an insult to Dikembe Mutumbo

Coaches need to play a 4-3 D, scrap the extra nickel on running downs.

Not even sure that would help. The linebackers are horrible too

Like an Alfred Collins type?

This was exactly my point last game. I love Walker but he shouldn't be playing the nose.

 

Just get a massive human being who can plug the run

Thank goodness Davis is completely inept as a QB

Idk he isn’t getting help. Two dropped passes so far 

[zow2]

Our DBs are so handsy.  I guess most DBs are 

[sven233]

I mean, seriously....  There isn't a single LB sitting at home that can at least run?  I'm not talking about Spector or AJ Klein, but a real LB.  I don't need an all pro or anything like that.  Just someone that can fit the run and get off blocks.  Thompson is OK, but outside of him, right now we don't have any good LBs on this team.

[MikePJ76]

So I guess they tried the BIG 4-3 if you will with williams and thompson at linebacker with bernard, sanders at end and bishop right up on the line and they still got run on.  have to think this was a package they worked on the last few days to try and get stops on early downs.

 

not sure what you do here to stop the run.  The interior gets whipped and the linebackers miss tackles and run right into the wrong gaps on seemingly every play.

Or people need to post in right one.

What if they're saying the same thing in the other thread?
