Empty Sets

[Lofton80]

Going back through the Jauron years to present, does anyone else cringe when they see this offensive set. With out outmatched OLine, it is always an instant pressure if not a sack. A lot of good teams don't use this set yet we see it weekly.

A lot of good teams do use this set as well.

 

Pretty much every team uses every set, just like every team uses every defensive package. It's to force teams to prepare for it and hope you catch someone off guard or a player snoozing on his responsibilities.

I could see us doing w/o it but every team does use it. I have been having some problems w/ Gaileys game plans so far in general. I hope it improves.

I agree with our trash line that empty sets are usually an easy sack if the defense sends pressure.

 

It was very Billsian in the Sunday night game when the Bears kept running empty set plays and Cutler kept getting sacked over and over. The Bears offensive line is arguably worse than the Bills, as hard as that may be to believe.

Yet, the Bears are 3-1 and were in the game against the Gints.

 

So what is the problem with the Bils? ;)

 

Cutler, instead of Whitner... ;)
