2nd and GOAL at the 1

Just now, Coach Tuesday said:

There is ONE Beane draftee on the o-line and he was benched today for sucking.

 

I think we need to see more to draw conclusions but you know I have been saying since March I don't think Saffold, Quessenberry and extending Bates was enough attention to what was our worst unit last year.

Why did Frazier only rush 3 on 3rd and 22? Frazier and Sean never learn on these 3rd and long

Still don't like Fraziers decisions with the game on the line.

Those calls were absolutely atrocious 

go under center and sneak the damn ball it works 80% of the time 

 

just ridiculous 

Not with third string center you can’t afford a bad handoff there.  But should have play actioned on 2 and than run on 3 n 4 with your RBs

Spencer Brown went out for heat illness.

I think being on the 3rd string C played a role in the playcall. C/QB exchange has been shaky under C without Morse

We've done it 3 weeks in a row. Finally cost us today.

The decision to go for the FG in which Bass missed on a 4th and 4 was a much worse decision IMO

yep TDs win you games, FG attempts lose games

He actually was pulled for "heat related issues"

[Nextmanup]

I thought we had a number of questionable play calls in this game, whereas I don't remember more than a couple from the first 2 games combined.

 

 

[TFBillsfan]

Don’t understand why you don’t put Josh under center and either sneak it or you lead with the FB Gilliam followed by Moss! Dorsey over thinking this!

If the C to QB exchange isn't working then put Bates at C. I don't think that's a good excuse.

 

2nd and goal and inches away so you put your QB 5 yards back. It just doesn't make any sense. You have to run 5 yards just to get to where you already were 

Bates was out from the beginning of the 3rd quarter

That’s the only call

the only call

 

You can run that three times and you’re probably gonna score 95% of the time… it’s the only call when you’re that close with the game on the line

When the ball gets down there inside the 5, I would want the ball in Josh's hands on every single play.

 

Maybe some designed QB runs, maybe some option stuff with receiver options available, etc...

 

If he can run it in, do it. If he sees an open guy, throw it.  

 

But keep it in his hands on EVERY PLAY.

 

It won't fail 3 or 4 times in a row! 

 

It would probably work 3 times in a row!

 

 

[ILBillsfan]

The thrid and one pass play i was thining two runs to get half a yard here ...... Course the pass to wide open McKenzie would of done it josh never stepped into the throw

Exactly!!!  Why do they refuse to do this?

hindsight is 20/20 - that quarterback sneak idea failed in Tennessee last year

[Green Lightning]

Our red zone performance today was pathetic and why we lost. We gave this game away. 

[ChrisWatson#21]

Yeah this didn’t make any sense at all. This was a very weird game the way it played out.

and have waddle in single coverage with a backup safety

The 3rd down defensive call to rush 3 and not going for it on 4th and 4 were “feel” moments where I feel like the coaches didn’t have a grasp.  
 

We were getting pressure on Tua.  Rushing 3 was a cowards move and let them expose our safeties. 
 

Up 3 didn’t feel much different than up 6.  Bills were driving and it felt like a TD, up 10 would change the entire complexion of the game. 

i agree and agreed at the time too

And that's the chess match I was referring to, it's not a high percentage play and the thought was probably the defense won't be expecting a pass, it didn't work out in our favor this time. If it did work out would this even be a thread? I'm just giving my opinion not hating on your thread or trying to argue about the play.

It worked last week and yes I was upset. 4th and 1 and they rolled out and threw it back to Diggs. They got super lucky on that one and it didn't work this weekend. It all evens out. That's why you don't do it. If you can't get 1 yard pushing forward with a 6ft 5 240lb QB on 3 straight plays then you don't deserve to win

Yep. True. Bad call. But even after that Josh has Isaiah wide open for a touchdown. 

 

Too many mistakes. Players and coaches. But offensive line again is the theme that stands out

They were working on his hand after the play. He got hit way too much today, Dorset did a bad job of protecting him

he wasn't benched - he had heat exhaustion and was out for the rest of the game

[Bronxbomber21]

I haven't seen Allen push a pass like the one to Mckenzie in a very long time. He forgot all about his foot work. They beat themselves. 

 

1. Miss fg opportunities right before halftime 

2. Dropped TD by Davis 

3. Dropped pick 6 Malino 

4. Missed fg from what 39 yards

5. Not running the ball at the 1 yardline then Allen turns back into rookie/ first year Allen and throws a push pass to a wide open Mckenzie 

 

Where was Diggs and Davis big time players have to step up in big time moments THEY BEAT THEMSELVES.
