Hope we grab some play makers in the draft/ free agency.

Maybe go QB, LT, OLB with our first three picks in some order?


I think they have potential. They did pretty well in the first half. It's hard to keep playing at a high level when your offense continues to give the ball right back to the opponent.

Great. So uh, what about the whole QB thing? They're just gonna hold teams to 3 field goals every week? BFD.

I wouldn't be surprised if we trade Lynch for AJ Hawk.

A defense is only as good as it's pass rush. Green Bay sucks at pass protection and the Bills only hit Rodgers twice today.

I'm trying to branch out conversation from the QB problems.

There is only so much you can say.

The Bills need a QB.

Trent sucks.

Ok, we've heard it a million times.

I was holding out hope for Maybin, but meh. He's doing nothing.

That's why I think we take a LB early in the draft.

Is that the same defense that Green Bay marched all over today? No they aren't almost there. They need work up front and at linebacker badly.

Our defense has been fine since Gregg Williams.

Its the offense that needs an overhaul.

How can you fault a unit thats on the field 2/3s of a game?

Id like a pass rushing OLB and a run stuffing ILB. Bynes impressed me but I'm worried about his size. I'm a Sturdivant fan as well, even after the off the field crap.

Id offer that we need OLB's who can pass cover and not expect Kelsay (a 4-3 DE) to do it.

This is a joke right? the d while it looked good has MANY holes the secondary is very good minus qhitner who imo is at least serviceable..... We have holes at every LB and DL spot imo

Sorry, I can't agree with that. Let's just take a look at the actual game play. Let us not take into affect the thousands of TV timeouts and down time. Time rested would be when the offense had the ball. Let's just look at game play:

Green Bay drives:
1. From their 34 down the field to the Bills 26.

Defense on the field: 3:11
Bills defense rested: One week

2. From their 49 to the Bills 6

On the field for 1:58
Time rested: 2:05

3. From their 28 to the endzone
Couldn't stop a 3rd and 10

On the field: 5:51
Time rested: 1:21

4. Their 40, three and out

On the field: 1:54
Time rested: 4:22

5. Their 16, three and out

On the field: 1:30
Time rested: 2:41

6. Their 20, one play end of half

On the field: :21
Time rested: 3:39

Score at half 13-7

7. Their 39, Drive for a touchdown

On the field: 4:17
Time rested: Halftime (15:00)

8. Their 36, Drive for a touchdown

On the field: 4:24
Time rested: 2:01

9. Their 48, drive for another TD

On the field: 2:32
Rested: 2:43

Game is over at that point, how does your theory work here?

The defense I saw today is NOT almost there, not even close.

No pass rush, allows running lanes as wide as a semi truck, corners who can't man up to save their ass and a weak 3-4 LB corps?

Yeah, we're almost there.

Make no mistake about it, this is an expansion franchise level defense.

Who can cover the flats? Anyone? Who can cover good receivers? Are we ever going to get a push on the D-line? Can we stop shooting ourselves in the foot? Then we'll be fine.
