I've been thinking about this some and I think the way we run option routes is one of the three things that Joe Brady can immediately tweak to make the Bills a better offense. I don't necessarily mean we should intentionally decrease their usage (which he isn't going to do anyways) but I do think they'd be better off by being more circumspect about exactly who is running those routes. We've seen Davis have multiple issues with his choices, I like Shakir but he isn't very effective with this yet either, Harty has a limited route tree, Sherfield has no chemistry with anyone yet, etc. Diggs is really the only one with the chops for it and Kincaid has enough upside that it's probably worth the growing pains to continue asking him to do it if just to get better with Allen. Outside of those two guys I'd like to see Joe Brady really limit option routes for other guys.

Don't big league me with your elitist British ales

Gabe Davis is not going to run away from a bunch of NFL DB's. They are just too fast.

That's the 40 sitting on your chest. Stop drinking at work, you lush.

This is not true at all. Diggs route on that play was specifically designed to get Kincaid free and he ran it to perfection.

That must be why his fellow players in the NFLPA recently voted him as the 5th best center in the entire league. But I'm sure you know better than the guys he goes up against every week.

I think it's more just human nature that one coach will tend to defend another coach when he's under attack by a bunch of half-clueless fans.

This is actually one of my problems with that 2nd blitz call. Aside from the fact that you're telegraphing to a veteran QB that you're again leaving your corners out to dry, that entire series Oliver was pushing the pocket down after down after down and there was not a thing their OLine could do about it. There was minimal upside to sending the house there again. There is no longer any element of surprise to create doubt or confusion, a veteran like Wilson is not going to take a sack there, none of our our DB's or LB's are particularly effective rushers, dropping that DE into coverage does nothing to improve it, etc. But there is a significant downside there where an unsuccessful blitz likely costs you the game in that spot, which it did. It was a foolish gamble with way more negative potential than positive. All that needed to be done was to defend the sticks on 3rd down while the inevitable interior pressure forces Wilson into a too quick decision. McDermott is a bit of a micromanager with an observable tendency to overcoach games and that was another example of it right there.

I'm pissed because you beat me to it by 3 minutes

Wow, what a gawdawful analysis.

Please spare us all the Twitter drama.

At least we shouldn't have to worry about it again any time soon.

He's probably trying to say that they should have been getting plays off with less pace. But that's stupid too, because the only time the offense ever gets in rhythm is when they run it with pace.

Take the Twitter drama somewhere else. Like maybe Twitter.

Another great observation going after a guy who busted his ass again and was arguably the best Bill on the field tonight. Your powers of perception never cease to amaze.

Peace out, Frog. Have a good year.

That last defensive call was all on McDermott and completely unnecessary

Ed just driving the pocket again

C'mon Ed, this has to be your series. Beat two if you got to brother.......

Attack fast with 3 TOs in your pocket Denver will probably be looking to stop clock
