BuffaloBillsForever

I believe it was the week after the why so serious. Why so serious was against the bengals and I think we played the Steelers after with the infamous "non catch".

It's God's fault.

Stevie Johnson single handidly changed the complexion of the game...and classless as well. Karma got you on the last drive buddy.

In a 11 years of losing, this is the worst defense I have watched...thats how BAD it is.

Bone heading critical penalties and critical dropped passes. For me it overshadows the other things he did well today.

Stevie Johnson's stupidity changed the complexion of the game, just like how Suh did. Sucked any momentum right out of us.

This is when we collapse, just like the last jets game.

This is the point we start getting pounded by the running game and can't control it...and then burned by playaction.

Stevie mocking plax shooting himself in the leg is as dumb as Plax actually shooting himself in the leg. Stevie has cost us this game so far.

Flying like a jet and then shooting yourself in the leg mocking Plax...how dumb can you be stevie..what did you expect? Dumbass.

God made him do it.

What a horrible play call on 3rd down...draw to choice...maybe the worst call I have seen all year from Gailey.

Damn the misdirection is killing our defense...this is what I wanted Buffalo to do...lets see some more of that option with Spiller but with Brad Smith at QB.

A power running game strategy is an absolute fail. We are NOT a power running team. In short yardage situations where we have used power formations we get stuffed, just look at short yardage situations this year - we suck at converting unless we run the wildcat. But you will say Fred Jackson is leading the league in rushing...well The majority of that yardage came from running the ball successfully out of shotgun when we are able to spread the ball out of 3 and 4 wr sets. Again using I formations with the fullback and twin TE is not going to get us anywhere especially with a scat back. Our TE's can't block either.

I want to see a double reverse to Brad Smith on the first play of the game. Bring the misdirection today Gailey!

Is Lee Evans 3rd or 4th on the WR depth chart in Baltimore? Baltimore uses a lot of twin TE, 2 Wr sets and Evans doesn't see the field. I thought I seen some 3WR sets yesterday and Evans wasn't even on the field then.

Suh is stuhpid. After re-watching the highlight he not only deserves a fine but a suspension.

This is Lee Evans first game back from his injury early in the season. 3rd quarter 1 catch for 8 yards and a first down. ...

Suh got manhandled today. Reading the Lions forums they are pretty sick of his antics and not totally impressed with his play this year. What about Fairley? Didn't hear his name once during the game. Is he injured?

The talk around the NFL this year is that the Lions are the dirtiest team in the NFL and players like Suh really take cheap shots during games. Did anyone just see this? Driving the guys head into the ground and then kicking him after the play? Geez, deserved to get thrown out of the game. Cost them a touchdown vs field goal too. Now what is this going to be, his 4th time getting fined this year?

You don't pull Fitz because Thigpen is just awful. Maybe even worse than Brohm. But whats a smart thing you can do is rotate him out more frequently with wildcat and double option personnel aka Brad Smith.

I agree. This is our only shot at doing anything on offense this week. I posted about it earlier. http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/138887-use-misdirection-against-the-jets-defense/

With the banged up offensive line, lack of depth at WR we can't run the spread offense against them. They are just too physical and their secondary is just to damn good. We are not a pysical "pound the football" in the running game either. Despite what a lot of people think, its actually the pass that sets up the run. For example look at short yardage situations giving it to the back this year? We get manhandled at the line of scrimmage. We need a lot of misdirection in our playbook this week. Things like reverses, double reverses, fake reverses as well as unusual formations and motion at the line with Brad Smith and CJ Spiller out of the back field as well as motioning to WR. Spiller is starting, get Brad Smith involved accommodate the Wild-cat, double option. Now for passing downs I like Fitz under center with trips bunch. If this is successful then maybe try to spread the ball out if they crowd the box. If we just go to our normal spread short passing game were screwed and its not like we can throw the ball down field either.

That's pretty spot on. Though I would point out that Fred Jackson has only been "elite" for about half a season so I don't know I would put him there yet. However, he has been our best running back the last 3-4 years.

Remarkable QB's are accurate. Fitz's downfall is that he is not accurate especially throwing the ball past 15 yards. You take away the short game, basically you have handicapped Fitz to make a lot of throws he can't make. They don't even attempt to try it with the personnel they are running right now, but when they have took shots Fitz has missed. Read the Giants game. He is a serviceable quarterback though. Better than Losman, Edwards etc.
