Dorkington Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 I liked that we lined up a RB out wide a couple times and actually threw it that way once, CJ would be perfect for that sort of mismatch.

Like the Packers did with Randall Cobb-- which created huge match-up issues (i.e., Bradham covering Cobb). We need to do this with CJ. He should be the hybrid WR/HB--on the field every down.

K-9 Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 I liked that we lined up a RB out wide a couple times and actually threw it that way once, CJ would be perfect for that sort of mismatch. I liked that, too. I didn't like the pop fly pass Orton threw to him though. Brown waited five minutes for that thing. As a result, he had no chance to score as the defense had plenty of time to get there. Orton hits him in stride, it's a simple jaunt down the sidelines and into the endzone . GO BILLS!!!

Can Brown call a fair catch there?
YoloinOhio Posted December 15, 2014 Author Posted December 15, 2014 I liked that we lined up a RB out wide a couple times and actually threw it that way once, CJ would be perfect for that sort of mismatch. it was almost a year ago but I remember us running something like that with CJ in NE last year. It worked and I think they caught Spikes in coverage.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 C.J. Spiller to be activated off injured reserve After eight weeks on injured reserve, Bills head coach Doug Marrone confirmed Monday that C.J. Spiller will soon be added back to the active roster.
NoSaint Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 @buffalobills Doug Marrone: @CJSPILLER is cleared to return and will be added to the active roster. His readiness for return will be gauged this week. wouldnt you not add him to the roster until you think hes ready for a normal work load here? save the roster spot as long as you can, until hes sure to be ready to play? or am i misunderstanding the rule?
Kirby Jackson Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Mike McCarthy vs. Nathaniel Hackett Who do you want to design and call plays for your offense? I read in another thread that it those things don't matter.

GO BILLS!!! on the brightside, it worked and made sense this go around. last time we saw that play was 3rd/4th and long with almost no time left and brown covered, right?
26CornerBlitz Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 I read in another thread that it those things don't matter. Okay. Well never mind then.
Augie Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 I read in another thread that it those things don't matter. Well, then, it must be true if you read it on the internet.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Mike McCarthy vs. Nathaniel Hackett Who do you want to design and call plays for your offense? The hope is that now that Hackett actually witnessed that, he can just copy it. It was so simple. They motioned Cobb into the backfield; if they didn't bring the LB in or were in zone, they handed it off for a 10-yard gain. If we were in man, they shifted Cobb out, he caught a quick pass and blew right by Bradham. Even when we brought Rambo in, Rambo slipped trying to cover Cobb, and Cobb turned it into a 20-yard gain.
Koufax Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 wouldnt you not add him to the roster until you think hes ready for a normal work load here? save the roster spot as long as you can, until hes sure to be ready to play? or am i misunderstanding the rule? No. I think you put him on the 53 roster immediately, and then decide during the week and on Sunday if he is active or not for the game. I want him active even if he only plays a few snaps, so that New England isn't the first time he sees the field.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Doug Marrone: "He's A Guy That's Made Plays" (3:49) Head Coach Doug Marrone talks about the potential return of C.J. Spiller and facing Oakland in Week 16.
bigK14094 Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Certainly can't hurt. Fred is clutch, but lacks big play ability at this point in his career. Boobies two yards and a cloud of dust, and Bryce has had too many fumbling issues to see enough to know what we got. I do think having CJ around could open up the offense some. Unfortunately, Fred did it all against Green Bay with heart, Strength and moxie......and zero speed. Fred needs to be done in this league as a #1 back. He might be a thrid down back for another season....but he shouldn't be carrying from scrimmage. Very noticeable when you see Boobie and Brown run....they still have NFL speed. (yeh, Boobie does, looks faster than Fred)
Mango Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Am I the only one who isn't excited to have Spiller back. Is our running game any worse without him? I'd rather just stick with the three we have.
mrags Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Am I the only one who isn't excited to have Spiller back. Is our running game any worse without him? I'd rather just stick with the three we have. im with you. Now we will feel like we have to get it into his hands becaise he "has the ability to take it to the house in every play" even though he never actually does. It'll take plays away from good football players.

It actually looked to me like brown could have scored anyway ifhe didn't cut it back to the middle. He had 2 defenders in front of him on the sideline but he had blockers at, or on their way to both but instead on following the blocks he cut it back to the unblocked guy in the middle.
