DapperCam Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Drawing DPI is as much on the WRs as it is on the defense or refs. They need to run through contact and draw the call. Allen had several deep jump passes where the WR (frequently Diggs) could have come back to the ball to draw the call and didn't. In fact, instead of a catch or drawing DPI, the ball was picked a few times that way. We'll see how this new group does. A lot of new faces.

Sauce Gardiner holds or makes illegal contact on every single play. He's as bad as Dolphins' Kohou, who does get flagged. Perhaps one of the video review people, perhaps Cover1, will make a compilation of the holds and illegal contacts. I suspect that many of holds and illegal contacts are positioned such that they are in direct view for referees even though they are caught on camera. Like the police some things have to be seen by them to be ticketed. It would help if Bills AV department was better and would put on big screen during games the plays so their would be more pressure for them to do better jobs.

I think we're in the best position we've been in yet to combat the jets defense. 2 TE's and a big bodied WR - a lot you can do there but i expect to see a lot of shakir/samuel/cook in those games. A variety of quick weapons - feature them in screens, slants, swings, etc. and force their handsy CBs who love to talk... to shed and tackle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defenders seemed to be able to stay close to the Bills' receivers without having to get to close. As defenses prepare each week, the emphasis always is what it is that the defense has to stop - the think that can just eat them up. At the beginning of the season we all would have said that's Diggs, but by the end of the season, Diggs could be stopped without making him the primary focus. The focus shifted to Kincaid or to Cook, and either case, those guys weren't striking fear in anyone's heart. It makes sense that defenses weren't interfering with the Bills. It's been obvious for a while now that for the Bills passing game to be a serious threat, it's going to be about route design, play calling and execution. That's primarily Brady. They have a roomful of receivers who are route runners and after the catch guys, with the possibility that either MVS or Claypool emerges as a real threat. The route runners will run their routes; if the routes stress the defense, and if Allen makes good decisions, it'll be a good passing offense and then, maybe we'll see more PI and holding. Except with Allen’s ability to extend the play one would think that at some point there should have been some calls. Which in reality there should have been. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
