Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 After having had Dinner with Marrone this week ( ) I informed him that if we want to make EJ better, run the ball and win games he better start using the FB to open up the running lanes. Wisely he headed my advice and all went as planned (hey Doug thanks for the consulting fee ).
Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 29, 2013 Author Posted September 29, 2013 Nobody loves you Frank but we know the truth.
Bob in STL Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 It was nice to see us run the ball and to see a FB and two TE's. We will need that come winter time in the AFC East.
bigdogtim Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 To win, you have to run and stop the run. Today was a classic example. Thanks Marv!!
CSBill Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Good advise Barbarian, thanks for your contribution to the team and Bills Nation. What will you tell him about Thursday's game?
Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 30, 2013 Author Posted September 30, 2013 Good advise Barbarian, thanks for your contribution to the team and Bills Nation. What will you tell him about Thursday's game? keep Frankie in there. You noticed how they took him out at the end of the game and we couldn't run the ball for nothing. Just keep pounding the rock with Fred and Tashard, shoot bring in Peyton Hillis to run, whatever it takes to keep running. It was nice to see us run the ball and to see a FB and two TE's. We will need that come winter time in the AFC East. Deffinitely :thumbsup: To win, you have to run and stop the run. Today was a classic example. Thanks Marv!! Amen! Who needs the spread
Gray Beard Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 summers seemed to disappear in the 2nd half. injury? change in play calling?
CSBill Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 summers seemed to disappear in the 2nd half. injury? change in play calling? yes, that was a bit curious considering that both Spiller and Jackson were banged up.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 30, 2013 Author Posted September 30, 2013 summers seemed to disappear in the 2nd half. injury? change in play calling? was odd, if healthy they should have left him out there that's for sure. His blocking was definitely missed.
billsfan89 Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 Bills seem like they finally have a good fullback, McIntyre was decent (And a really good Special Teams player) but Frank the Tank seem more like an old school power fullback lead blocker type.
Captain Caveman Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 If FJ and or CJ can't go Thursday it would be nice to see Frank the Tank get some carries, maybe he'll turn into our own Peyton Hillis.
buffaloboyinATL Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 I swear, the whole board hated him two weeks ago. What a difference a good game makes.
Captain Caveman Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 I swear, the whole board hated him two weeks ago. What a difference a good game makes. I was ready to cut him. Now I like him cause he's fat, he made some good blocks, and he plays for the Bills.
San-O Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 keep Frankie in there. You noticed how they took him out at the end of the game and we couldn't run the ball for nothing. Just keep pounding the rock with Fred and Tashard, shoot bring in Peyton Hillis to run, whatever it takes to keep running. Deffinitely :thumbsup: Amen! Who needs the spread I love them running, and they are doing to very well, however they also need to stop putting the ball on the ground. NO fumbles Thursday = Victory.
mattsox Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Bills seem like they finally have a good fullback, McIntyre was decent (And a really good Special Teams player) but Frank the Tank seem more like an old school power fullback lead blocker type. Love it. Not a glorious position, FB, but gotta love the passion and team play. Would like to see him get the ball maybe in some short yardage. Could always use another weapon in the arsenal!
DefenseWinzChampionshipz Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 The only problem I have with Frank is that he thinks he's CJ. Trying to juke defenders. If he just ran them over with that frame he got, he'll be something special and will see more time on the field on 3rd and shorts...
eball Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 I swear, the whole board hated him two weeks ago. What a difference a good game makes. His penalty against Carolina was the height of stupidity.
