Shotgun draw

[BuffBills51]

The shotgun draw up the middle that Dorsey tries to run multiple times a game needs to be taken out of his playbook. Every time we run it they either lose yards or have no gain. That play put the offense in second and third and long multiple times today.

I despise this play more than a Mularkey 3rd and 12 draw to Shaud Williams. Kill it dead now. Seriously it's terrible.

[BruceVilanch]

I was saying that the third time it failed against the Jets, it's a dumb play that doesn't work.

You can count on this play being called at the most inopportune time.  Never fails.

It's the drought-era all over again with that play.  It almost never works and just wastes a down and if you are lucky only loses a couple of yards.

Line up under center!!!!!!!! Stop the shotgun madness

I can’t stand it. Doesn’t allow the backs to get a full head of steam.

Other Teams Spot this play like they called it themselves...Dorsey is donkey somedays.

Exactly I think it worked once the first time they tried it against the Jets. Maybe for a few the second. Now it's a complete dud and they keep going to the well.

The draw to Cook is written in pen in every game plan. 

[DuckyBoys]

today the offense once again was too reliant on Josh to be special  Happens too often to not be looking at Dorsey   There were no well executed plays to offer easy yardage  No screen game and we simply could not find a run play that was effective  Add the miscues/drops and you have the sputtering offense

2nd and 1 turned into 3rd and 7. Great call Ken!

Thank you thank you thank you. Worst play ever. Especially when you think you are trying to “outsmart” your opponent on a 3rd and whatever distance you have. It doesn’t fool them. They are extremely excited to be able to take Allen out of the play in a key 3rd down conversion situation. It’s 100% plays like this that make me feel like Dorsey shouldn’t see another game as a Bills employee.

That was the even worse play call of a shotgun pitch.

Did James Cook get a single carry from under center? A single rush off tackle from under center?

Yes! The Madden 95 play that doesn't work in real life. Remember using it to HB #34 for about 300 yards per game when I was 10.

And Dorsey is too stupid to understand the disadvantage it puts Cook and his speed in.  Dump this worthless play, I've said this for 2 years.

[finn]

I don't recall this play ever working, and Dorsey loves it, as if it's a surefire winner. 

 

What is up with Dorsey? Where are the change-up plays, the--I don't know--end arounds, jet sweeps, direct snaps to the RB, RB screens, counter-treys, naked bootlegs, or misdirection plays of all kinds? I mean, try SOMEthing besides the same ten plays over and over and over, starting and ending with the shotgun draw for no gain.

This fact is the greatest reason to permanently scrub this worthless play.  It completely handcuffs James starting from a dead stop position.  I want him at full speed getting handoffs behind center. Dorsey this isn't rocket science. 

[BillsDiehard]

That and the WR screen...dude sucks!
