PFF rating vs Bills (Mazi wasn’t too bad)

[Roland]

Who am I supposed to hate at the moment?

I lose track because the Zone has freaking whiplash and changes their mood on a whim.

reminds me of the old the whack a mole game!

Yep so that’s why we should be lining up Micah in the middle on running downs. Mix it up.. let him go sideline to sideline chase plays down.

We lose some on the pass rush so be it.

Agreed. I get it that he is a beast in the pass rush but as a run stopping edge, just too light. If he were playing lb on early/obvious run down or when we are getting run all over, I think we would have better results. Certainly has the speed for sideline to sideline, shooting the gaps to make tackles behind the line. I dont think we are getting the maximum benefit of his skills. IMO

Of course if he is playing lb more for the run, then those running plays maybe turn into more pass plays.

I don't know if that is considered a good rating, but not surprised to see Pollard so high vs his peers. Dude was running with some authority. Sort of thought that running was going to be more of a focus with Malik called up. I guess they panicked and abandoned it with Buffalo taking that early lead.

Should have stayed with it longer as it was working out well. Could have milked the clock refreshing our defense and made Buffalo rethink their strategy.
