How close? This close

[Weaselpuppy]

Yeahhh, it was more that the miss was close/tight on the hand swipe by Kerby.

I think I got distracted… by…ummm…jigglypuffs.

Thats my story and Im sticking to it.

I will note that Da Problem was on Da Bench during Dat Play. Allen has zero pressure. It looked like they were trying to prevent a run by Allen since Buffalo had 3 timeouts. They accomplished that!!

e again are playing man to man coverage, WTF??? Why not a deep zone and make them take 10-15 yards chunks with only 23 seconds left?

I can see this… especially w/Jacobs and Okudah injured and/or out.
Also, the whole game, as a body of work, they didn’t do too bad.

We definitely can improve…and we are.

Yup - makes the defense muuuuch more one-dimensional too…having limited talent on the roster. Next year should be so much fun!

As a whole I totally agree. I am still on the DC bandwagon and think he is the right guy.
As you can tell though I am not a fan of Glenn, I think he holds the team back if they keep him on.

I’m a little on the fence here.
I think Glenn is a great man and mentor for these young dudes.
I think it is muuuuch easier to coach when you have a more talented roster.
I think we are one dimensional, because of the roster.
I think it’ll get MUCH better, and that we go to a 15 or so ranked D next year.

How much of that is/isn’t on Glenn? I’m not sure.
I do think our new DT is going to change literally everything.
Too big of holes right now, especially w/Okudah and Jabos out at the end of the game.

@BigNatty

yup - and we exploited them on several plays
…and vice versa

Getting beaten by “the play in teh back pocket”…with seconds left, and winning on a last second field goal…well, microwaved…
I’ll just agree to disagree.
We have very different definitions of what getting “outreached” means…AGAIN.
Goofy to not see multiple points of view. I dont mind if ours is different, thankfully.

Exactly. It wasn’t coaching as much as it was one of the best QBs and WRs combo’s in the NFL……and Kerby almost got it. Awful hard to out coach elite talent.

100% - that was a fantastic play by buffalo. The defense was actually pretty good. This is how Kerby learns and grows. Rather have it happen now than in the playoffs next year…still…I’d like to make the playoffs THIS year.

@Nate

But how close THE BALL HAWK was to either batting it down or intercepting it.

So much of this game was decided by inches or milliseconds.

Same thoughts. Intercepting it would have ended the game. I’m not sure batting it down would have stopped Allen. It was a great game. I don’t often say that after a loss!

Kerby is really good. Glad he is learning these things when the games really don’t matter all that much.

I like Swift but that was a drop an he has slipped in his play . I do also understand he has been hurting an he could be kind of player has problem playing with pain. Its not wrong an there are many like that in league same as some of us on here are different.

Swift has definitely slipped in his play. He’s rubbing me the same type of wrong way Hockenson and Enron were rubbing me. Not just his drops but not clawing for the extra yards putting us in tight positions.

HOWEVER

I know exactly what play you’re talking about and while swift dropped it. Goff also threw the ball slightly late giving the LB a chance to break up the pass.

I say this not to excuse swift and blame Goff but to actually indicate that Goff might not be trusting swift the same way either.

Over the past couple of weeks there have been instances where Goff threw left but swift ran right and vice versa. And thst fraction of a second cost us.

I’m not a fan of the swift situation. It’s VERY disappointing.

@Doctor_Love

For Will Harris to get his doors blown off by a WR? I’ve noticed that, too.

If Harris could’ve even kept something resembling coverage, that might have been the difference.

Yeah I was thinking that if we add another formidable pass rusher and replace will Harris with a legit nickel/Cb/Safety. We have a winning record.

[Longinthetooth]

I am still expecting some good things this year however I cannot wait to add just a little more talent to this team in FA and the Draft. The slappy in me is calling it now, we win the division next year!

[BigNatty]

@Longinthetooth

we win the division next year!

Yup - I’d be surprised if we didn’t.
