78thealltimegreat Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 I know WR is still a need but I’m starting to get concerned with the ability of our backs to get short yardage or run out the clock seems we still need a bell cow
bills6969 Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 Not as much as I am concerned about our Run D. 3 1
John from Riverside Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 Gore looked old today ds looked great 1
GunnerBill Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 I am worried that we insist on running it when we should be passing it. 6 1 2
Rc2catch Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 I don’t blame it on the running backs as much as play calling. Extremely predictable and Washington is not a pushover front 7. They’re pretty stout up front and fast at linebacker 5
Big Turk Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 (edited) No...they are not good on power runs...haven't been all year...they are near the bottom of the league at them...why they keep insisting on running them i don't know....go spread and run out of it if they have to... They run the ball pretty effectively otherwise, just not when they go jumbo or tank and decide to bring everyone near the LOS Edited November 3, 2019 by matter2003 1
Nuncha Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 How many times was Gore stuffed in short yardage situations and Doughball kept calling it.... 2
MDH Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 I said it after the 3 stops at the goal line. Why don’t they spread the field and give it to Singletary on short yardage. Thankfully Daboll was listening. ? 1

GunnerBill Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 Just now, JoshAllenHasBigHands said: Man, I feel for Daboll. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t. This fan base. Ha I agree. But the "run it more" people are just wrong. We did not lose last week because we passed too much. That was an idiotic argument. We lost last week because we couldn't stop the run. 2

Got any citations for that claim there? Yeah go check out Football Outsiders offensivr line power rankings...i believe the Bills are 29th. Every other category they are top 10 in and lead the NFL in Adjusted Line Yards and 2nd level yards...overall they are doing very well running just not in power situations.

H2o Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 What? Singletary had his best game as a pro today against a team who had been playing solid defense the last couple of weeks holding SF and Minnesota mainly in check. 1

No, up until today the Bills have been pass happy. Today with first and Gail they went backwards with ***** play calling and becoming pass happy. In the second half with the box stacked the Bills should have done play action, we saw it work on the last TD drive. 1
Warcodered Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 6 minutes ago, GunnerBill said: I am worried that we insist on running it when we should be passing it. It does kind of feel like we let our offense become one-dimensional when it doesn't need to be. Our offense isn't good enough yet to just play run or pass we need to play our best mixing in both. 2
