BillsFan-4-Ever Posted November 7, 2012 Posted November 7, 2012 It's not supposed to fool anyone. It's a numbers game. And the numbers indicate it isn't working - at least these pase few games. You just can't run up the middle on every WC play!
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted November 7, 2012 Posted November 7, 2012 Brad Smith is probably the most under-utilized player on the team. Theres like so many things wrong with how we use him: 1 - Hes back there by himself, so he already doesnt have anyone to pitch to - The option needs OPTIONS... if its a speed option he needs someone back there so they cant just pack the box on him 2 - They rarely have spiller or jackson motion across, so theres no confusion on whos getting the ball or where its going 3 - We keep fitz on the field for some reason, even though we could sub him out for an actual receiver - or extra blockers 4 - We never put him in the backfield WITH fitz, which can cause some confusion as well 5 - Havent done one reverse with him all year... That ALSO can cause confusion since if its designed correctly we can have open receivers downfield (that bengals one is a great example) - not to mention hes fast and shifty - get him the ball in space! 6 - Teach the guy to punt... considering we punt from the 35 in OT (and in their territory frequently), we may as well have a guy who can cause them to maybe burn a Timeout or save ourselves a big return 7 - How about a creative "Music City Miracle" Type of return play? Just some of my thoughts about our boring vanilla offense... The worst part is, I feel like theyve worked on these things but they never do them
