TPS Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 While the O-line is getting a lot of well-deserved credit, the WRs should too. Shady doesn't make this first down without the great blocking that happens down field. It almost looks like a designed punt return. McCoy 23-yard run
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 While the O-line is getting a lot of well-deserved credit, the WRs should too. Shady doesn't make this first down without the great blocking that happens down field. It almost looks like a designed punt return. McCoy 23-yard run I commented on that IMMEDIATELY. Three enormous blocks on that run, one after another.
Big Turk Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Yeah they walled off the entire side, it was amazing to see the Bills do this kind of thing...
The Wiz Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 (edited) O'Leary had a clean shot at killing the LB on that play and just stood still and cut off his pursuit. Nice clean blocking there. Edited October 17, 2016 by The Wiz
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Probably my favorite play of the game. That's the kind of "Billsy" play that we give up on defense in the past. We are the anti-Bills!
26CornerBlitz Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 @billbarnwell The downfield backside blocking developing out of nowhere on this third-and-20 Shady McCoy run for a first down brings tears to my eyes
bigdogtim Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 I'm sure this is just luck. Whaley surely couldn't have sought out smart guys who could actually think on the field.
Steve Billieve Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Woods is always blocking downfield . . .
Blokestradamus Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 @billbarnwell The downfield backside blocking developing out of nowhere on this third-and-20 Shady McCoy run for a first down brings tears to my eyes Not going to lie. I may have watched this back about 15 times on my re-watch earlier. Nick O'Leary, man. Kid was immense all day as a blocker.
fan_in_tx Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 What bothers me most on this play is it appears that the linebackers target Incognito. Watch how 51 Hodges seems to have a clean shot at Shady from the right side on his stop but appears to be looking at Incognito while 56 Skov takes out his knees.. Trying to take out one of our best blockers.
TallskiWallski83 Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 This run is as good of a run and you will ever see in the NFL . Just incredible vision and playmaking by Shady. This is what elite playmakers do
NoSaint Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 I'm sure this is just luck. Whaley surely couldn't have sought out smart guys who could actually think on the field. honestly, hes tended to go after athletes first, intelligence distant second. to have a play like this work out and have so many guys land in the right spots is a whole lot of luck. but good on the WRs and WR coach for having a group that plays to the whistle and are feisty enough to get their jerseys dirty in the run game too
section122 Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 I saw this live and we must have re-watched it 10 times during the next break. It was beautiful 1,2,3 bang, bang, bang. Great blocks and it was something great to see on 3rd and 20. How many times in years past did teams break our hearts and spirits doing this to us?!

You mean like how one pats game they were flagged on 3 plays in a row (false start, holding, false start) for 1st and 30 and then threw a 33 yd first down? Had to have been a decade ago but I always remember that series.

McCoy 23-yard run It was great downfield blocking and I commented on it at the time in the game thread.

Trying to take out one of our best blockers. Yeezus! Woods almost ruined Cordy's season on this play too. I was looking at what you pointed out, then saw someone take Glenn's legs out. Re-watching, the guy was pushed by Woods. That play could've cost the Bills big time.
stony Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 O'Leary had a clean shot at killing the LB on that play and just stood still and cut off his pursuit. Nice clean blocking there. That was my initial reaction. Smart, clean blocking. Guys could've went for kill shots but laid off.
3rdand12 Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Good coaching NO WAY ! Not going to lie. I may have watched this back about 15 times on my re-watch earlier. Nick O'Leary, man. Kid was immense all day as a blocker. A thing of beauty. How often have we said that about the Bills ? EVERYONE WAS ON THE SAME PAGE hat on a hat What bothers me most on this play is it appears that the linebackers target Incognito. Watch how 51 Hodges seems to have a clean shot at Shady from the right side on his stop but appears to be looking at Incognito while 56 Skov takes out his knees.. Trying to take out one of our best blockers. This happens more often than you might imagine. ask the All- 22 guys. sucks too.
John from Riverside Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 OLeary is coming along......I am glad we did not give up on him
