Boludo Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Four WRs is plenty (plus Brad "Bubble Screen" Smith). With our nasty D-line and great running backs (and less than top tier QB), we need to play more like the 49ers and less like the Saints. Maybe we'll see more play action too. Line em up and smash mouth!

atlbillsfan1975 Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 I couldnt agree more. I hope Chan does not use the shotgun empty backfield half as much this year. I understand the Oline was nicked up last year, but not even making a d have to play the run was frustrating. Chan did this many times early in the season even before Fred J. was hurt. Hopefully this year Chan goes with more conventional O formations. 2 wr's, 1 TE, and, 2 running backs. Put Fred or CJ in motion to the slot. This still allows a lot of running and passing options. it will keep the D more honest. Especially the lineman. I know Chan has forgotten more football then i will know. But as a guy that played oline into college i always hated it when a Dlineman KNEW it was a pass play and did not have to even respect the run.

Ramius Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Never mind the fact that the major reason our running game was so successful last year was because we were running of the spread/shotgun.
MARCELL DAREUS POWER Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 people tend to forget, the early 90s bills teams were really a running team with thurmanator and kenny d! sure they passed, but thurman was the identity... remember 95 wildcard game vs miami, 350 yds rushing!
NoSaint Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 I'm down with running more. To put it in perspective here's what the league did last year. Playing from behind it makes sense we'd be a little higher. I think getting around 55% pass 45% run would be around where we belong. With the extra rushing the averages likely slip a little bit for ypc, but thats ok. http://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/passing-play-pct
billsfan89 Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 Chan needs to stop using the empty backfield. At least with four wide and Freddie or Spiller in the backfield you allow for a draw or screen pass to take the edge off of the D. This team seems more smash mouth than Chan has played it in pre-season.
Pirate Angel Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 He kept Corey Mac and Dorin Dickerson and ditched half of our wideouts, plus bringing in David Lee to further implement the wildcat. Our strength with no question should be the running game. Is Chan going in that direction?? time will tell.
12Kachy Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 They threw more because they were down by the 2nd qtr. The d was terrible. I'm still not buying into Fitzpatrick. The Jackson trade was stupid. Young knew more unless gailey sees what salt of people see. Fitz is a backup a best.
mrags Posted September 1, 2012 Posted September 1, 2012 I've said this many times this off season. If Chan outsmarts himself and we get too pass happy, especially after halftime with the lead we will end up being a 8-8 team. If he gets to running the ball like a San Fran, Baltimore, Pittsburgh (of fhier SB years) type offense where we run it down thier throats we will win 10-11 games this year. More play action means more options in the passing games.

The Jackson trade was stupid. Young knew more unless gailey sees what salt of people see. Fitz is a backup a best. Very true, costly penalties and late starts force us into long 3rd downs and a mountain to climb on a scoreboard. Vince has 1 good run and 1 good pass surrounded by some of the worst quarterbacking ever, he looked like a bad JP losman and Jp losman is already bad. Fitz gives us a chance to win he is better than some of the starters out there he cant make a bad team good but he can play well with a good supporting cast and the players seem to be high on him.
