Okay. You're on record as saying that Josh doesn't have any responsibility to get his teammates prepared.

 

Got it.

 

 

You said "Funny the D stats show that the Bills are a bottom 10 D."

 

I said that's not true and in fact it's not true.

 

You stated the erroneous facts... now prove em.

 

#31 against the run.. that’s a championship D 👍

Only suprise here is that there is another team that's worse

You said that the Bills are a bottom 10 defense.

 

They're 14th in points allowed per game (18th from the bottom).

 

They're 10th in yards allowed per game (22nd from the bottom).

 

So you were wrong... they're actually in the top half of the league defensively.

Again as I stated they are 31st run D that’s a fact. If you think they are a top half of the league D you’re delusional. All analytical football watchers know the Bills D is and has been the problem. This doesn’t excuse the O from poor performances.. but the D and its soft philosophy and player size is the problem.

You’re blending two different discussions. I have never said Josh or the O aren’t responsible when they play poorly. But any objective Bills watcher is aware the D week in and week out is the Bills biggest problem.

You claimed that the Bills D is "a bottom 10 defense." Statistically they are not so you are wrong.

 

Secondly and separately, you've stated that Josh doesn't have any responsibility for getting his teammates prepared. So we disagree.

 

I'm not "blending two discussions."

At the end of the day scoring defense is the only thing that matters and you're right it's not bottom 10

 

Certainly leaves a lot to be improved and McDermott should be grinding to improving it 

 

But if we're like 13th or 14th now and we're not even peaked it probably is a top 10 scoring defense... McDermott does give up rushing yards and some yards between the twenties 

 

He has never been one over nine years here too get gashed scoring wise.. his points per game here against are typically always closer to the top than the bottom

You are quoting GoBills808 not me above. So if you’re going to have a discussion please don’t quote the wrong person. That’s not my statement. If you’re going to be smug at least get it right what you’re attributing. 

The Bills are 31st against the run. They are not a playoff caliber D. So yes you have blended discussions. Each loss can be attributed to a poor run D as the key factor in the losses. And since the HC is known for his D expertise that’s a problem. I’ve provided fair balance that in the losses the O is not excused.

Happy to continue to conversation but let’s not make up quotes from others about your position.
