bills in va Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Well at least we're the best at something. We lead the NFL in penalties with 55 thus far. Is this poor coaching (does anyone ever remember Jauron chewing out anybody), too many rookies, lack of discipline (again this falls on the coaches) or something else?

The Big Cat Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Well at least we're the best at something. We lead the NFL in penalties with 55 thus far. Is this poor coaching (does anyone ever remember Jauron chewing out anybody), too many rookies, lack of discipline (again this falls on the coaches) or something else? Given the stat has been reversed the last three years (with us at the bottom of the league in penalties), how could coaching have anything to do with it? You really think the cure to Bell's pre-snap jitters is a good chewing out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 Well at least we're the best at something... ...I guess you feel that it it's just rookie mistakes or what? The guys seem to be fooled a LOT by fake snaps. It does seem like the other D has been fooled by our O line a lot too with offsides. Total Penalties Bills - 55/422 Total Penalties Opponents - 59/501 HEY! We are ahead! B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsVet Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Well at least we're the best at something. We lead the NFL in penalties with 55 thus far. Is this poor coaching (does anyone ever remember Jauron chewing out anybody), too many rookies, lack of discipline (again this falls on the coaches) or something else? This comes down to the roster makeup. Buffalo's been forced to play more UDFA's and/or rookies this season that it's not a surprise they've received plenty of yellow. Bell, Byrd, Levtire, Wood, Palmer, Buggs, and Meredith are all getting their first action this season and responsible for many of the flags. Overmatched OL like Bell are victimized because they play such a key position. If there's one defense of DJ, it's that the people building this roster have never found quality backups. One injury at OT or LB forces them to scrape the PS and street free agent roster. I'm sure they have a budget, but spending big for this team, getting a TO means not finding quality depth. And with the team being one of the smallest in the NFL, injuries are bound to happen. They've got some depth at the skill positions like DB and WR, but the lines, LB, and QB mean going to bad players quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
