I'm kinda surprised at tremaine not being a fan favorite.

Guy shows up and plays every game. Most downs.
#1 defense in the league
Covering for fat star's absence
Stays out of trouble
Team leader
Still young for his nfl experience

Sure, he misses tackles and shoots the wrong gap....

* poyer and hyde are the best safety pairing in Bill's history. Add in a healthy white and touchdown taron.

My all time favorite secondary

Fans gonna fan I guess🤔

BECAUSE HES BACKSIDE CONTAIN.

Edmunds makes a great play to fight through traffic from the backside to light up a RB after a 3.5 yard gain and yet you have a problem because he should have done more.

Bias confirmed.

- ImThatGuy

Fight through traffic, he let the guard initiate contact, he didn't attack anything, instead of attacking the play he let it come to him.

Yeah he really should of been able to fight through 3 of his own players and 2 opposing players that had blocked him.... Or maybe Milano and company make the initial tackle so Harris doesn't get blown up 2 more yards down field

Edmunds took away the outside which is where Harris was headed for after Milano and others fail to make the tackle.... How is that his fault? How does he play that any better

Well maybe if he actually moved on the play instead of letting the guard come 3yrds down field to engage him he wouldn't have gotten caught up

Milano and 2 other players missed their tackles and your complaining Edmunds didn't rush through 2 guys bigger than him... If he rushes through those guys Harris is still on the outside and now Edmunds is really out of place to make a tackle and Harris is probably getting a 1st down or more

klein outplayed him in the win over the chiefs
- homiedclown


No he didn't.

Via All-22, Edmunds was an A-, Klein was a B-

He's by all accounts a top 5-10 LB in the entire NFL.

I don't know what more you want out of him.

and again, this is flat out wrong.

#Bills linebackers missed tackle rate on run plays:

AJ Klein: 19.0% (115 run defense snaps)

Matt Milano: 7.8% (353 run defense snaps)

Tremaine Edmunds: 4.9% (316 run defense snaps)


Others

Devin White: 12.7% (301 run defense snaps)

Lavonte David: 9.5% (226 run defense snaps)


Warner's Missed tackle % vs run 8.6%, Edmunds 4.9%

By who's accounts, most don't have him ranked in the top 15-20.

Stop the play 8 seconds in, Edmunds sits down in the run lane, causing Harris to bounce it outside. If Edmunds is not in that position or he attacks, Harris bounces outside or runs straight up the gut for a big gain and there is no way and Edmunds is there to make that tackle after missed tackles by Milano and White.


Also i have no idea what Elway has to do with any of this?

- ImThatGuy


Hmmmmm…. good question
