Our Offensive Strategy May Not Be to Win
sven233 replied to Tolstoy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's a passing league. You pass to score points. I have no problem with them passing the ball a lot and trying to win that way. It's time for the Buffalo Bills to step out of the dark ages and try and compete in a league that is passing them by......literally. Now, does that mean they are using all these throws correctly? NO!!!! Most every pass is being designed for WRs to hook up, square in or square out to the sidelines, and come back to the ball. They are hardly running enough plays that are designed to get run after the catch which is how a lot of offenses put up big passing numbers. Now, I don't know if this is because they have determined Allen can't throw slants, crossers, etc. effectively enough on a regular basis or if this is just the general scheme of our offense in general. But whatever. We have a long way to go on offense whichever way you want to put it. But, I have absolutely no problem with trying to light up the scoreboard throwing the ball all over the place. We've had 20 years of ground and pound and it has gotten us nothing. But, with the offense the way it is designed, and the lack of overall talent on the offensive side of the ball outside a few guys, I'm not sure our version of this passing offense will work. But, I have no problems with them trying to build an offense around the passing game in general. -
NFC Slug-Fest: Hawks @ 9ers

What a wild game...... Fun stuff. And look, no huddling to waste 30 seconds off the clock to settle for a 53+ yard FG on grass. -

Josh Allen can't seem to throw ahead of a receiver

Not true. I see him throwing ahead of the receives every time he throws a deep ball...... /Ducks -
Game Thread 1st Half Bills vs Browns

Nick Filipowski @NEWS4_NICK·2m Devin Singletary hasn't touched the ball since the 12:52 mark of the 2nd quarter -- on an 8 yard gain. Makes a lot of sense..... -

Man....the Browns getting that false start may have cost us 3 points. -
Game Thread 1st Half Bills vs Browns

Man....I wish that terrible game that Josh Allen had against the Pats* never happened. Ever since that game, he has hardly pushed the ball down the field and has been scared into taking no chances at all. The play calling got substantially more conservative as well. You can trace a lot back to that game and it pisses me off that because of 1 bad game, everything since has been so conservative. -
This defense is built to stop the pass. Most weeks in the NFL, you can get away with that in a passing league. But, when you run into teams with big, powerful strong running backs with a team that loves running the ball, your personnel becomes physically over-matched. This is exactly what is happening right now. We need to have some guys start to win their 1 on 1 battles because they are getting beaten across the board,

You have 4 downs from the 1 foot line..... You have a 6'5" 240lb QB. This is not rocket science. If you can't get a foot on 4 QB sneaks with that situation, you may as well just go home. Oh....and if you are going to run it, have your best RB in the game who scored like a million TDs in college. Stop trying to get cute.

Only thing I can think of was that he was on the team a bit longer and the staff may have felt more comfortable with him for that reason. But I think those of us who knew Taylor were pretty disappointed that Peko got the call first.

So, the Bills could have had him, but chose not to...... OK then.....

ESPN: Bills know they must fix run defense
sven233 replied to Saxum's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He is not talked about a lot on here because many probably don't know who he is, but we have a guy named Vincent Taylor on the practice squad who is a dominant run stuffer. He came over from Miami a while back and has some games under his belt and is a supreme run defender. May not have a complete game yet, but right now, we need a plugger in the middle. Phillips is greatly missed in this defense and Peko and Star just can't get the job done. Not saying this guy is the answer, but I'd love to see him get a shot. The last DT we got from Miami is sure working out well! -
Gameday Thread Eagles @Bills 2nd Half
sven233 replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
One thing is painfully obvious today........ As much as we need a true #1 WR, this team needs major help at DT. Lots of stuff to get done by Tuesday id they want to make this year into something.
