The Bills have multiple "holes" but priority #1 HAS to become the Defensive line.
The Chargers ended the Colts season because Indy could NOT run on them. Conversely, INdy stayed in the game because they had a pair of DE's (Freeney and Mathis) that were just pounding Rivers all night.
And in the Arizona game, Ryan had pretty good numbers but the bottom line is that pass rush, led by FA Bertrand Berry harrassed him all day long.
We have the worst 4-man pass rush I've ever seen, and we also don't stop the run unless we bring extra guys (Scott, Whitner, Whomever) into the box.
Chris Kelsay has GOT to go (or get benched) and Denney is good but not "starter" good. If Schobel comes back we need a dominating DE next to him,and if Schobel isn't good we need two of them.
Kyle Williams is a borderline starter but a VERY solid rotational guy. I'd like to see a better starter there as well.
At any rate, before anything else in FA and draft, I really hope we're smart enough to put our money into our DL. Let me take that back, we already put big money into our DL (SChobel, Kelsay overpaid as hell) and Williams got an extension..I hope that we reinvest in our DL, but this time with better players.
It's amazing watching playoff football and the difference between DL's.
