Really? You didn't watch the youtube clip? The Bills were down 21-3 against the Raiders in week 2, and Chan ran Freddy for a big gainer 43 yd TD run, the frenzy after that play sparked the entire offense to play better.
The Cowboys had 4 offensive TD's in the first half, 28-7, but then went punt -FG -FG -FG the second half.
so in the Cowboy game where Freddy is killing them with an 8.7 YPC average, Chan stops running the ball and just calls shotgun passing plays. Shotgun-shotgun-shotgun-punt. How many times do I need to see that before I start thinking this HC is a boob
look at the drive charts from that Cowboy game, once the 2nd half started The Cowboy defense went into a prevent and allowed Fitz to lead the Bills right down to the Cowboys 17 yard line. where Chan called pass,pass, pass, pass. 4th down pass incomplete so the Cowboys take over on their own 17.
Freddy went off LT for a 19 yard run in that series, but when down in the red zone all gailey can think of is passing the ball. Shotgun 3x, punt. Shotgun INT
