I agree with your premise.
But, largely this was the same defense as last year. Are there any other big additions/subtractions I’m missing?
So why did we get our excrement pushed in by Josh freaking Allen? Can’t say how embarrassing it is to be the team that allows him to pass for 300 yards
He did throw it 46 times (6.8 yds per att), so when you throw that often, you expect 300 yards.
The defense did get better after they benched Desir, but it was also a blowout at that point.
Last year in Week 1, the Bills had 370 yards. This year, they had 404. Last year, the defense shut them down until Mosley went down. This year, Mosley was already out, and we lost Cashman in the game. We had Harvey Langi playing constantly. And they added Diggs.
This is a bad roster. Defensive line is solid and safeties are solid, but the LBs and CBs are bad.
