TPS Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 Bills are so beat up in skilled position, they better go to the 2-back, with a FB, and power football. I don't think they have a choice. Pound it.
Santana Posted November 21, 2011 Posted November 21, 2011 you definitely might be on to something here. I think its time for a change from the spread but I dont know if I would want teams being able to stack the box either.

I think its time for a change from the spread but I dont know if I would want teams being able to stack the box either. Put Fitz behind center, let McIntyre lead Spiller, and tell the O-line to "show me what you got". Hell, might as well run 2 TE and one WR against the Jets.

Gray Beard Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Rotate the backs. Fred (if he is healthy), Spiller, and White. All with McIntyre leading. And once or twice give it to McIntyre just to see if he can surprise them. I would love that.
stevewin Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Was thinking this today. Would like to see a lot more of McIntyre -have him "out-physical" some lbs trying to fill the gap. Need some guys out there who will knock some heads.

Pound it. Every pass should go to Chandler. At this point, he's the only receiver worth a monkey deuce.

"Pounding it" when they are behind 28-3 isn't going to accomplish much, is it?
dpberr Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I agree. I'd love to know why the Bills continually try to make positions on a football team extinct. I'd run the Jets to death again like the Broncos did. Run and pound away at them.
Gray Beard Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I agree. I'd love to know why the Bills continually try to make positions on a football team extinct. I said in a different post... too bad Chan doesn't use the tight end or the fullback. The Bills have some good ones.
Captain Hindsight Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 It would be a great startegy. Chan knows the running game too. It would really catch the jest off guard
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I don't want to see Spiller and McIntyre on the field simultaneously. If C.J. accidentally runs into Corey it could mean the end of his career.
Wilson's Ears Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I don't want to see Spiller and McIntyre on the field simultaneously. If C.J. accidentally runs into Corey it could mean the end of his career. for which one..!?!?!?
Slack_in_MA Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I don't think we use near enough play-action. I think it's an absolute necessity to allow our average WR corps to get some separation. Of course, that requires that you can effectively run the ball first AND not be three scores down, which has been the theme lately.
T master Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I don't understand why with Mcintyre on the team why he hasn't been used more in a 2 back back field ?? Even use CJ & Fred in a 2 back set that would drive D coordinators nuts !! Use motion to put CJ or Fred out in a slot type position or motion both of them out there that would be just another wrinkle to our O that opponents would have to get ready for !! Go Bills !!!!!!
dpberr Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 The Bills can't go heavy on the shotgun this week. I'm worried when I read Urbik has practiced most of the snaps out of the shotgun formation. The Jets will be able to diagnose the plays almost instantly. And Spiller without McIntyre isn't going to scare the Jets.
JerseyBills Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 I called into WGR 550 after the Jets game for the first time and said this, well I said Gailey has to at least attempt to power run with our best player , i feel like this might be the week where Gailey mixes it up
bowery4 Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 There are a lot of things that we could be doing that we just haven't this year. I realize that a part of that is the limitations of personnel and the utilization of scheme to fit the personnel that we have (and the fact that practicing new things and perfecting them takes time) but it is kind of driving me crazy that "Megamind" is coming up short. The Brad Smith running up the middle thing as a for instance. Teams are used to seeing it and everyone here complains it should lead at least once to Brad throwing the ball (which is a valid point). The easy way to make it less predictable and still surprise some people would be to just snap the ball to Cory (who really should handle the ball once in a while IMHO). The man is no just a blocker/lineman in the backfield, he is a running back. It is a minor variation which would make the whole wildcat thing less predictable and more effective. I love Chan as a coach but little things like that are making me more and more doubt him. I also go a little crazy when I see him have them line up 5 wide to get 3 yards on 3rd down, although I do understand that a bit better (I hated the call though and the results didn't surprise me). At that point in the game the screen to Freddie was still working very well and IMO was just a much higher percentage play (if they were to just chickenshit to just run the damn ball). I also can't imagine why he thinks Spiller should run between the tackles, when it is very obvious he is much better outside. He isn't Fred and shouldn't have the same set of plays. The D, don't get me started about the D. I really don't like how Chan said at the presser that he was the offensive guy....no he is the head coach and the Defensive guys schemes are blowing and limiting your offense, it is your damned responsibility to get the D right too. There I vented. Go Bills!
bowery4 Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Now that Fred is down, it is the answer. Feed Cory Mac! There a hundred ways to do this. The man is a bowling ball. He will get your 3-5 yards on 3rd down. Feed Cory the damn ball against the Jests! Give Spiller the ball around end on 1st and second down, don't even try running him between tackles. And throw a long ball at least once a quarter, even if it is a wasted down. Get those safeties and CBs off the line.
Mark Vader Posted November 22, 2011 Posted November 22, 2011 Every pass should go to Chandler. At this point, he's the only receiver worth a monkey deuce. Totally agree, Chandler was one of the few players that was a positive on Sunday. We need to get this guy more involved.
