Simple, they play big nickel, Bernard/Williams/Rapp on passing downs, and Klein in on short yard situations 

Simple -- YES

Effective against elite play-off teams -- NO

Someone will step up. Dodson, Bernard, the rookie. I think one of them will emerge and surprise all of us, and be pretty decent. And like others have said Edmunds was very overrated. I think we’ll be okay.

Spector will be the starting MLB.

Another thought. Bills base D is a hybrid 3/4 with the 4 being Millano, Bernard, Williams and T Johnson? Von returns to a stand up olb when he returns. The DL would be Groot at DE with Poo and EO at DT.

Beane made it sound like it will be a competition between Bernard, Dodson and Spector.

I thought Klein would be a good option but it looks like he is "break in case of emergency" situation.

Simple running downs Dodson/Klein, passing downs Williams/Bernard = better than just T Edmunds. Bills were 31st in the NFL at run defense in the middle of the field at 5.1 ypc. That was because TE sucked at getting off blocks and reading the defense. Add specialist who are good at what they do plus Poona Ford. It can only improve

the problem is that teams throw much more on first down than ever before.

It's not exactly like those two are complete duds in coverage. Just not their specialty. Matter of fact I don't think Edmonds had a specialty. He wasn't great at anything. He just looked the part.

MLB becomes a concern against run heavy teams, and against KC and the Bengals.  Outside of those two teams the Bills should be able to generate enough points so that the opposing offense has to almost always pass to catch up.

Your middle LB can't let that happen.   It always looked like Tremaine was making the tackle at about 6-7 yards downfield.  So it makes sense. 

EVERYONE EXCEPT F8 COULD SEE THIS.

NOT F8...
