Mahomes was getting the ball out fast against zone and they were getting open on man coverage. Plus the scrambles against man. Reality is the Bills just need some more dynamic defenders. Not sure it was a scheme issue last night. Secondary was cooked with Rapp or Benford (who displayed an ability to stay with the speedy WRs and defend a downfield pass before getting knocked out of the game). the protection was certainly a mess.
Josh said in the post game he slid the protection left, so it's not on Torrence it's on Spencer Brown but bc of the CB blitz he has 2 guys
It sucks because this was a perfect play call just like the 3rd down. Great play by 56 on 3rd down and just went against a perfect blitz disguise
I will permit the Bills to take a WR in the 2nd or 3rd round but everything else needs to be defensive players.
I would be good with that, just need to get one guy that can stretch the field…. keep the defense, honest. Everything else should be used on our defense… we just seen when an elite defensive line can do… and that’s what we need
hope so, Cook can wait.... Has Ty Johnson stock gone up to the point of his contract being to much for the Bills to take on now?
The Bills have agreed to terms with safety Darrick Forrest on a one-year deal, per source. Forrest, who turns 26 in May, was a fifth-round pick in the 2021 NFL draft and emerged as a promising starter in the Washington defense during his second season with the team. But he played only five games in 2023 before suffering a season-ending shoulder injury and hardly saw the field in 2024 after the Commanders changed their defensive scheme under a new coaching staff and inserted safeties Jeremy Chinn and Quan Martin into the starting lineup. Forrest, who recorded four interceptions, two forced fumbles, a fumble recovery, and a tackle for loss during his breakout 2022 season, will presumably come cheap after playing just 74 defensive snaps last season.
had so much going for him. seemed like a good kid. length. solid athlete. but he just never put it together. way too grabby. bad form. terrible in man coverage. and Benford came in and was immediately way better than him.
