One important question I have on the last drive
Wayne Cubed replied to Thunderstruck's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I will say this about the play, against Cover 0, the ball should be going to the middle of the field up the seam where there is no help. -
One important question I have on the last drive
Wayne Cubed replied to Thunderstruck's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Hmm, disagree a bit there. The play design works to get Beasley open. And I get that Allen’s been coached that when he sees 1v1 on the outside vs Cover 0 with his number 1 receiver, the ball goes there. But it’s situational awareness and how far off the secondary is playing in the bunch formation. The LB has the TE drag route but the other 2 are so far off the ball there is cushion there for a completion. The number 1 beater of Cover 0 is the long ball to the middle of the field. The Browns obviously are playing coverage so far off to not give that up that it looks like they are willing almost to give up a 1st down. -

Yup cover 0, means no safety help in the middle of the field. 0 players deep. -

The ball is going to Brown pre snap no matter what. This has been coached to JA, when you see Cover 0 and Brown, your #1 WR, is in tight man coverage, you throw the ball his way. If he beats his man you throw the ball over the top. If he doesn’t you throw back shoulder. The problem I have is they have run this play this season against Cover 0 and have had minimal success with it. Also, if you look at the bunch formation the secondary is playing off and you only need 4 yards, someone should be open on that sides. Why isn’t Josh being coached to read the defense a bit more. This is situational. While the Brown 1v1 is a nice look, it’s a low percentage play. And the bunch formation, just presnap, looks like a better look and higher percentage play seeing as you only need 4 yards. Also, re:Dawkins, JA sets the protections. Dawkins immediately blocks down inside, as if that was the protection. To me that reads as JA didn’t think the CB was blitzing and set the protection as such. Also history tells us he has a tough time diagnosing the CB blitz. -

Not exactly accurate. His 1st read has him looking right. But if Allen correctly identity’s the blitz, Beasley becomes the hot route, aka his new 1st read. Allen’s doesn’t identify it or ignores it. -
From earlier games but hilarious none the less...

Yhe other thing is, if he knows that’s where the blitz is coming from, he’s not facing Brown so he doesn’t have to turn. There was time for that throw but Allen needed to identify the blitz coming from there. -

I can’t say for sure. Daboll has said Allen sets the protections so it very well could be the case that Allen didn’t identify the blitz and so Dawkins was meant to block down inside. I can’t say for certain. What I can say is that if he identified the blitz, he would have never been looking Browns way. And he could have thrown into the Blitz. -

Because he’s not there mentally, he misses a wide open Beasley on that play. He was always going to Brown pre snap but if he would have identified the defense and blitz he would have had Beasley wide open with room to roam. -

Some mid-season thoughts re Allen and the team
Wayne Cubed replied to jahnyc's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It was working until it wasn’t, Patriots. Literally after the Pats game is when they changed how he played. I get that he doesn’t make those throws but my point is does that matter? Are either style of Joshs considered effective QB play? Because I’d he plays hero ball it’s going to bite him in the butt, Patriots. Or if he plays Uber conservative he can’t make plays or throws, though I’d argue he still makes some good throws. I think neither are effective long term and maybe it’s time to consider what it really is the Bills have in Josh. I’m not saying give up but he’s needs to take a step otherwise he’s stuck. -
Some mid-season thoughts re Allen and the team
Wayne Cubed replied to jahnyc's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
They may be neutering him, I agree, but the hero ball he was playing in the first 3 games wasn’t working either. They are trying to find some way to use him effectively. Either way what does that say about Allen? -

Wayne Cubed replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Haha, that’s funny. So because it’s his 3rd or 4th read, which you are guessing at you don’t know, it’s ok for him to miss a wide open receiver? Have I got that right? And that’s being objective? Because he might have to rush the throw? He might have to rush the throw on his first read, why does it matter what read it was? Josh has a problem with his long ball, that’s not ripping into him, that’s an observation. -

When do the excuses stop? Josh Allen has a problem with his long ball. Daboll literally gets WR open deep and Josh can’t hit them. Yes it’s a low percentage play but he hasn’t hit 1 this season. -

If Josh hits a WIDE OPEN McKenzie, is this game even close? -

The Bills STILL can’t seem to do anything in the 3rd quarter. Out scored again. -

Fixing NFL Divisional Structure
Wayne Cubed replied to corta765's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Oh I’m sure, I’m just explaining where they got that number from. Although Boris Johnson, the former Mayor of London and sort of current Prime Minister has dual citizenship or did, I’m not sure anymore, and he would always complain about having to pay US taxes. -
Fixing NFL Divisional Structure
Wayne Cubed replied to corta765's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The problem is, as American citizens, working outside the US, you have to pay American taxes as well. Not sure if you remember Boris complaining about it because he held American citizenship. Anything you earn outside the US over $160,000 you have to pay American tax on. So a player earning $28m here will pay $14m to the British government leaving them with $14m, then take away the $160,000 exemption, they would then have to pay US tax on $13.86m. That would get taxed at 45% leaving them with roughly $7.6m. Perks of being a US citizen, so they say. I’m sure there are ways around it, I have no idea how Chelsea is doing it with Pulisic but obviously there is a way for them because I can’t imagine he’s giving up that much money.
