Bleeding Bills Blue

Norman wasn't that bad was he? Him and Jackson both had some starts and played when white and wallace missed time in 2020.

I think there are missed opportunities outside the first though: 1 - moving on from Teller as a prospect in favor of flexibility with their depth. 2 - Epenesa hasn't been a major impact player yet, there are multiple options around that pick that are more impact players along the line (ezra cleveland, damien lewis, jonah jackson 3 - Basham over Humphrey in 2021 after doubling down with rousseau after epenesa in 2020. 4 - Elam in 2022. Obviously we don't know anything yet - but the next 2 players off the board were tyler smith and tyler linderbaum. We certainly had the ability to draft either. Likely was competition for morse and brown, and doesn't improve the guards around them either

Need to run better though. Especially in the red zone/short yardage situations

Singletary definitely took most of the snaps in the past game. I know with the tennessee game they have traditionally had a good run defense, and they had a weak secondary so matchup wise - we should shred them in the air. Miami blitzed a ton early in this one so buffalo got comfortable in the shotgun giving allen a bit more space. The multiple botched snaps under center was likely a concern as well.

Boettger and Bates outplayed him. Brown shifted williams inside to RG and all but parked him on the bench.

He wasn't good last year either. Looked both small and out of shape - as if he expected to be starting at Center. Then they re-did Morse's deal all but sealing his fate as depth center and guard.

This is to entice money on both sides by Vegas - they open lines based on htat and adjust if the money heads to far in either direction

Yeah, bass kicked it with like the middle part of his foot. Not sure if he planted wrong or what. I think it was tipped too because the kick was not great.

Why would we want landon collins? He blew out his achilles in 2020 and played linebacker in 2021.

The alternatives are Cam lewis, Siran Neal, and Jamarcus Ingram. Neal is basically a nickel corner - lewis has played inside and out and safety i think - Ingram is a rookie from the MAC. You should get white back soon. You should hopefully get some good news on Jackson. Benford has a hand injury but he'll be able to be active in a few weeks as well. We're looking at a few week fill-in.

Yeah he didn't do anything wrong on the big play to waddle, the safety took a mis-step and that was all she wrote.

He had back to back catches on one drive too. I think he was there to really keep diggs fresh to make it harder on howard and it just never worked out that way.

Kumerow going out early was big i think. Good run blocking WR, and the depth behind diggs and davis. Davis played the entire game because he didn't cramp - but Diggs and Mckenzie both did. Diggs out means mckenzie or crowder lining up in his spots. Cook, Morris, Gilliam, all likely stepped in at times. Not to mention the patchwork unit on the offensive line.

Some dumb timeout usage on the road cost them in this one. But coaching isn't why bass misses a FG, or why singletary misses a block, or why allen misses a 4th down throw. Lot of stuff went wrong at the same time. It's tough to evaluate the unit in that one. Tons of shuffling, heat exhaustion, snap issues from under center. I don't know if they were even comfortable with mancz at center doing non shotgun snaps. Someone else mentioned it on a thread but - while the RPOs are mostly working, we're passing on almost all of them. There needs to be an under center element to the offense. I also think using mckenzie in jet motion more often will help. You can use davis and knox in motion as well to block backside ends as well.

Yesterday I'm not going to say its not on Josh, but its not all on him by any stretch. Here's every 1 score game we lost in that stretch. KC - Did enough to win, took lead with 13 seconds left TB - We didn't score on the first possession in OT. but he did drive us down to tie the game. We also got hosed on a blatant no-call holding that would have given us multiple chances to punch it in from the goalline. NE - Wind game Jags - Allen played bad, so did everyone else on offense - i'll give that one to josh Titans - Slipped QB sneak and a missed block. Defense did let them score on the 2 drives in the 4th quarter though. Steelers - 10 point game that was made a 1 score game when we kicked a FG down 23-13. We were down 13-10 in the 4th in this one and a blocked punt TD pretty much sealed it. There's some bad luck in there (steelers and titans), bad weather (NE and now Miami), and some poor performances all around (KC and TB defensively, and Jags game offensively). In 2020 they were 6-1 in 1 score games.

You're not wrong. Attack the mesh point - its how you defend RPOs in the backfield.

I think both of those moss runs were out of shotgun too.

He had the longest play of the day...

On that 1st and goal inside the 2 - i wondered why we didn't go goalline package. Then realized we had no one. There was no additional lineman on the bench to even go in as a tackle eligible. They got blown out by a team that had 15 total wins in the previous 4 seasons. They didn't miss a kick - they got destroyed. That has to be a concern for the Chargers.

We had 92 offensive snaps - moss played 16. On those he had the longest play of the day.

I wasn't gonna say it but... he hasn't been very effective. No he didn't. Singletary missed the block.

Has to be. Missed snap. Missed blitz pickups. I think Spencer Brown being clearly hampered was a killer at points before he went out, and quessenberry struggled at times as well. Morse, Bates, Brown, Hart suspended. We had to use knox as a blocker for the majority of the game.

Missed facemask on allen in the end zone. Missed knee target on allen on same drive. Missed call on the helmet lead to knox. Missed kick call on Ingram. I believe wilkins also went for a "peanut" punch and hit allen in the... groin. No call and Allen gets one for retaliating.

Most of tyreeks YAC comes on deeper stuff actually. While he occasionally will break a tackle on the short stuff it really isn't his game.

Yep - my brothers and i dragged our feet and this is the result. Next year we're going to plan this on schedule release day.
