34-78-83 Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 It has been explained on here before (Hoofhearted for example) but the Shotgun runs that many are yelling at the wind about is a big part of our successful read-option (RPO) game. Sure, it hasn't always worked, especially on the goal line, but overall it HAS worked. The shortsighted takes over and over and over without learning anything about the game are so muich fun to read through though! 1 1 Quote

I looked further - some twitter saying Bills have made offer of: Elam and 2nd round pick for Johnson. Hmmmmm.. Beaner up to a good deed? That would be a helluva trade. The bears stink but he’s been stellar this season….. but he’s an UFA after the season. Would we sign him to an extension? I suppose trading elam and a 2nd would’nt be too bad- even if we let him go after the year, we could get a 3rd rd pick for losing him. I think he’ll get over 18M a year if not 20+. or maybe we cut Tre and use that money in Jaylon. We’d save a little over 6M releasing Tre. I’d love to get this kid.

HOUSE Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 The Bills aren't going anywhere without a consistent running attack, this should help. OH, BTW, I told you so 1 Quote

You have a 6’5 240 lb. qb and you should have him qb sneak it from a half yard line out in 3rd and goal or less every darn time. You won’t lose yards and they’re not stopping you more than twice in a row. Edited October 30, 2023 by Doc Brown 1 1 Quote

Murray looked like the veteran between-the-tackles back we needed to compliment Cook earlier in the year, but as the season has gone on, it is becoming more and more apparent that he just doesn't have the juice to get through the rest of the season in a role that had become bigger with the loss of Harris. 1 1 Quote

I don't think people realize just how many plays a game the Bills run RPO's on...it's A LOT and it's far more varied and diverse than most teams in the NFL. See the breakdown I posted with JT O'Sullivan QB School from Week 8 against TB and he breaks down their RPO game quite a bit and is amazed and cannot heap enough praise on how exceptional it is from pretty much every standpoint. 3 1 Quote

Warriorspikes51 Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 I'm guessing Henry was no longer available / going to be moved for a reasonable price. Good Signing. I wanted this weeks ago 1 Quote
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted October 30, 2023 Posted October 30, 2023 I like this a lot. This guy is way better then Murray 1 Quote

While I agree with you, it appears that the coaching staff is worried about Josh's health (especially with the nagging shoulder) and reluctant to run this play as often as we would like. 1 Quote
