DEFENSE vs Buffalo

[Old-DaBoot]

Buffalo switched to more “wildcat” type of plays. Defense was gassed when they put the QB back in late.

Makes sense

You can blame the defense when they were on the field most of the second half because of a muffed punt by a guy that’s already fumbled three now and a dumbass pick

That is certainly why they were worn out.

Putting them right back on the field after a stop will wear out a defense quick.

Agree

I agree with you 100%. The team gave up 38, and IMO there is no excuse to give up 38 to Buffalo. The INT and muffed punts killed the momentum and defensive energy. I def don’t put all blame on them, thanks for the reply and giving me a chance to clarify my words better (my original context was horrible, but the general message stands).

Something changed.

Not really.. our coordinator is pretty terrible at defending against no huddle or up-tempo offenses..

We went up 31-7 and Buffalo started throwing the kitchen sink at him, with alot of up tempo offense, and our defense gives up dink and dunk plays with ease

Also I would say that our front 4 is not as great as we think they are. Granted, this was a long ass game, but the push up front was nonexistent in the second half

Buffalo doesn’t have a bad offense. But there was no reason to give up that many second half points.

Just looked at the 2020 season (10-1). Except for Iowa St., ULM and South Al……we won by 10 pts or less….

If y’all get a chance, go to Twitter and replay that pick six by Mensah. He fought through 2-3 blockers to do that.

They don't have a great one either. Their QB was pretty bad.

[CajunVic]

. . . he really wasn’t . . . but consider the source . . .
