And thats why the majority of coaches in this league suck. They get stuck in their own system and on one side of the ball. The talent issue in this league isnt players its coaches.
Good defences will dictate what they want Peterman to see. They will bsically set him up. If anything Peterman will be at a disadvantage till he sees how teams will play him.
He is basically being thrown to the wolves.
Gillislee sat because he wasnt part of this particular gameplan. There will be games where he will be used quite often. Pats gameplans are team specific. They dressedb4 rbs and 4 te's last week
Oakland isnt going anywhere. That leaves Balt as the only true contender. Besides Bills might be seeing Hoyer in Foxboro if the Pats beat the Steelers the week before.
8-8 will probably get the 6th seed this year. Bills have a game on Balt and at least 2 games on everyone else. Therr probably wont be an easier road to the playoffs than this year.
