Bills Practice Notes | Top 3 things to know of the joint practice of August 15 against Chicago Bears

To prepare the scene, joint practices are a bit chaotic for the spectator. During Friday practice, there was an action in two areas simultaneously. Buffalo’s wide receptors would do head-to-head exercises against the defensive backs of the Bears on a field, while the Bills defensive back would go in mind against Chicago skills players. This was the same case for team periods and the two -minute exercise.

All this to say, it was difficult to see each game. However, it was easy to leave with large positive themes after a single practice against the Bears.

The good day of the defensive line

Beginning with the defense, the defensive line was on the point of the training on Friday. The whole unit had their wheat before climbing on the training field with physicality about them. He did not show up at the head or during a team, he was consistent throughout the practice. The Bears have several new parts on the offensive line and always build chemistry, but you can say the same for the defensive line of Buffalo.

It really seems that the unit has done an excellent job to build chemistry out of the field, which helps during practices. The new pieces raise the game of veterans like the defensive platform Ed Oliver and the defensive winger Greg Rousseau and Vice Versa.

The defensive line dominated the individual exercises of beginners in the second and third teams. During the team exercises, we heard a lot of whistles while the pieces were called dead due to the pressure that the Bears offensive felt. We counted a mixture of bags and pressures from Rousseau, Oliver, the defensive winger Joey Bosa, the defensive platform TJ Sanders, the defensive platform Dewayne Carter, the defensive winger Michael Hoecht, the defensive winger Javon Solomon and more.

Dominating against the race + sticky cover by DBS

The defense as a whole was also dominant against the race. The secondary unit and the defensive line linked several plated for the loss and stops on the melee line. The group had a solid technique to stay in their gaps and read their keys instead of reacting to the bad thing. The defensive platform Daquan Jones, the second Matt Milano and the second Dorian Williams had notable stops in the racing game.

Milano continues to show lightning of his old self. The secondary was present against the race and the pass. He had some shortfall breaks, with his ability to go to the cover. On a game, Milano was below and plunged to knock the ball and force incompletion.

During a period of red zone, the quarter of the Bears Caleb Williams targeted Rome Odunze near the goal area, but the Christian Benford corner half and the Taylor Rapp security provided a large blanket and pushed Odunze out of the limits before they could obtain two feet.
