Bills vs Ravens Divisional Round

[Scott7975]

This may seem counterintuitive for the Bills defense but the best way to stop the Ravens is to play well on 1st and 2nd down. Any time a team has stopped a Ravens drive its because they got them in a 3rd and long look. I have also seen a couple coaches that played the Ravens say that was key to stopping their offense, to not let them stay ahead of the chains.

i say no chance. When the injury happened, it looked like at least a 4-weeker.

 

Flowers is mid anyway. All their receivers get wide open from the run action. When Nelson Aghalor is out there without a guy 8 yards around him, you know it’s not really about the receiver. 

 

I disagree about Flowers but the rest I agree with.

We're not getting steamrolled at home. This is a revenge game. This is also an opportunity for Josh's teammates to rise up and show the pundits who's for real in this mvp debate.  Seeing 58 play the way he did today and the defensive adjustments made after the td was very encouraging.  We've got 3 special rbs. Stop 22 early, get a lead and force Lamar to throw to the boundaries.  We do these things we'll win. 

 

Yup

In the game earlier this year, we didn't have Bernard, Taron, or Amari on the field

 

Milano didn't play either and Rapp was injured and played only 28% of the snaps.

Anyone know who the officials are for the divisional round. Vinovich, Land Clark, Brad Allen, Kemp, Wrolstad, and Hussey were the WC officials

That means Hochuli, Clete Blakeman, Ron Torbert amongst others are eligible to ref the Divisional round. I don’t want Hochuli and would probably prefer Blakeman

I totally agree with getting a lead early, preferably 2 scores, and forcing Lamar to throw to the sidelines.  In planning for this game I would say, if this game looks like its gonna be a shootout, I would treat every drive like its 4 down territory, unless its an obvious punt or fg situation.  That will help keep up with the Ravens, but it also gives the offense a more confident mindset that they have 4 downs to get a first instead of 3.  You need to be aggressive and if this game is high scoring, we're probably going for a lot of 4th downs, unless we're really good on downs 1 - 3.

I never want to hear this team doesn't prepare. The gameplan may not always work out but they always prepare.
