jimmy10 Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 There were a lot of great plays today, but the surprise, and the timing, and the effectiveness of that ridiculous gain McKenzie got on that 4th and 1 sweep was just stupendous. Not gonna lie, that made me jump out of my chair more than any other offensive play today. 18 1
Dr.Sack Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 It took balls to call it, and great execution to get the outside corner out. 1
jimmy10 Posted October 5, 2020 Author Posted October 5, 2020 And I’ve also gotta think the tape from that play loses at least one night of sleep for all the remaining defensive coordinators on our schedule. 2 1

Rigotz Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 That’s the kind of stupid play that would make fans say in 2019: “What kind of stupid play is that?? A jet sweep on 4th and 1?? Fire Daboll!” Beautiful when it works. 4
The Dean Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 It was so fast I actually missed that it was handed off. Very good execution. I have to say, I've always been a McKenzie fan. He brings a LOT of excitement when he touches the ball. 15

The execution and that timing on the snap and handoff were stunning. 17
Inigo Montoya Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 (edited) That play was executed perfectly. The timing was spot on and McKenzie was already flying when Allen put the ball in his bread basket. I don't think that play can be defended when it is executed like that.

Freddie's Dead Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 McKittrick had one bad play, the first play where he had no chance at all. Two huge 3rd and 4th down conversions when we needed them. Love me some McKittrick!!! 1

Reader Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 Credit to McD, our conservative coach???, and Daboll for going for it as well. 1
BillsCuse Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 I loved that they went for it on 4th down at the 50 yard line. They are so much more aggressive this year on offense and its great to watch 4
Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 Bills made it look routine. And that play was really about just Allen and McKenzie. The timing and exchange were so quick that as soon as the McKenzie had the ball it was first a first down just based on how fast he was running. I got to believe Allen and McKenzie make it look much easier then it actually is. 1

I have to say, I've always been a McKenzie fan. He brings a LOT of excitement when he touches the ball. Same here. With the camera view, it’s hard to see that McKenzie was even back there and the eyes follow Josh going back. Then you see McKenzie flying around the corner and he has the ball.

Great still! Allen & the RB sell it with their body language and the LB runs with them. My favorite is the 2nd DL from the bottom popping into the hole created and thinking ‘I got this!’, then glancing to the left and seeing McKensie flying by . “Oh FART!!” 2
UConn James Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 Josh’s mesh point / handoff is usually pretty slow and fairly obvious. This one was a thing of beauty worthy of a magician. Fooled darn near everyone including the CBS camera. 1

This wasn't a play action so he just handed it off.
Aussie Joe Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 McKenzie is a quiet achiever on this team... Never going to be a star and will be one of those guys that go down to the wire on final cut day against the latest flavor of the month from training camp... but he always seems to provide a solid play the 1-2 times a game his number is called... 5 1
FieldGeneral Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 Loved it. They were setting it up all game. One of the few wrinkles that actually paid off.
