Buffalo Bills defensive coordinator George Edwards is flying under the radar. While fans and the media have paid attention to C.J. Spiller's electric runs, grading Trent Edwards' every drive, and watching Chan Gailey transform the offense, the Buffalo defensive coordinator hasn't been talked about much.
I doubt Edwards minds. His road is rocky enough, transforming Buffalo's personnel into a winning defense, without having attention from the media piled on his shoulders. For sure, the media has paid attention to the switch to the 3-4 defense, and Buffalo's struggles in the preseason defensively. In his defense, the defense has been vanilla all preseason. We get our first look at the real scheme on Sunday.
Then there's the question that's been brought up on this site and alluded to by Gailey himself: what is the Bills' defensive scheme going to be? The answer to that might be found in Edwards' background. After the jump, we'll see why the Bills may be a 3-4 in name only.
