    From the Buffalo News this a.m.; should make a lot of folks happy.  Perhaps this is a sign that the Bills are finally figuring out "who they are" on offense and creating an identity -- or it's just the personnel grouping that they felt worked best against Miami.  In either case, 37 pts and 400+ of offense is nothing to sneeze at.

     

    1. The Bills didn’t use their “heavy” offensive package much. Blocking tight end Lee Smith played a season-low seven snaps (10%), while fullback Patrick DiMarco was on the field for just four snaps (6%).

    Explains the drop in holding calls, Smith wasn’t on the field. 

    Where are the Splash plays??

    A forward pass has to travel forward. A dropped ball in front of you that someone runs by and grabs out of air is a hand off, but the NFL is a funny place with its rules. The shovel pass is a forward pass. This new age jet sweep is also if the qb actually pushes it fw to them. I don't think this one was, or was the one Allen had last year(which was ruled as a fumble), but, agree to disagree. 

    That was the correct call, it's a shuffle pass.

    We can't not like it all day long but it's a shuffle pass same as the jet sweep the Bills run, yardage goes down as passing yards.

    The ESPN Primetime splash plays have been missing most of the year. The long TD bomb, INT returns, Strip sacks, long TD runs?? As we see it these are not needed to win, but please??? I think this week we get them in Miami. I expect Allen to connect with a long TD bomb to either Foster or Brown. I expect some on defense to snag a pass and take it back for 6. I expect Hughes to show up and strip sack Fitz, I expect Motor to rip off long runs. Lets take it to the next level please. Buffalo 31 Miami 14.

     

    And then carry this on for the rest of the Season, Kindergarten is over. Time to put on grown up pants.

    The splash plays all left for other teams. 

     

    Personally I think the biggest problem is coaching. Allen is being coach to "not loose" and it's taken a bit of his edge away this year, let the kid sling the rock, if it's a turn over then so be it, he will learn the hard way but at least let the kid go down swinging. This coward ***** is for the birds.

    They're running the ball at an avg of 28.5 times a game. And passing at just over 32 times a game. Removing the teams that haven't had a bye yet, there's only 5 teams with more rush attempts. Not arguing, but I think they have been running the ball. I would like to see Singletary get the ball more often, but I'm pretty sure they were easing him back into the game plan after the hamstring issue. The Athletic saying they have been primarily a passing team isn't correct in my view. Their lowest number of rushing attempts was 20, against the the Eagles. We were down that game and playing catch up. Also, those 4th qtr. comebacks were probably due to more passing than runs. Just my take.

    See the NE game for evidence. 

    They had the ball in NE territory and decide to get pass happy for no reason and end up taking a costly sack that pushed the FG attempt out and that contributed to the miss. (3 points right there). Later they had the ball down in the red zone and decided to pass the ball and again they got no points out of that drive, those two scoring opportunities result in at the very least 6 total points if we run the ball and don't convert 1st down or TDs and we end up tied with NE and head in to OT. 

     

    That game the running game was effective and yet they try and get cute and try to be a "balanced team". If you're getting 4-5 yards a carry then keep running the ball until they show you they can consistently stop it. There is no reason to try and force a passing play.

     

    They are passing more than they are rushing, and just because other teams are pass happy doesn't make it the right game plan for the Bills. Run the ball to set up play action.

    Foster just hasn’t been taking advantage of his opportunities on Sundays and I’m guessing he hasn’t been doing so in practice either which is why he’s not always active. Duke hasn’t done a ton but he’s done more than Foster. Mckenzie has made plays when he gets the Ball. Duke and McKittrick should be up this week imo. 

    I agree. Duke does seem to catch the ball just not may targets. I’d like to see the Bills run to establish the pass with more screens and play action. I also love the jet sweep to McKenzie

    Its funny because some people on here will argue they have been running the ball. 

    I would like to see more running like this past Sunday and then more play action and would it kill them to take a deep shot with Smokey? Foster seems to have forgotten how to track the ball and I think they can use a big body like Duke more than Foster especially with Brown and McK.

    I’ve been to a few stadiums to see the Bills and the absolute worse was KC. While at a game with my two daughter 10 & 12 at the time and my now ex wife who is 5’2” 110lbs.

     

    my kids where verbally abused while waiting to use the restroom by grown men, dropping f-bombs on them and just horrible. My ex was physically attacked and pushed to the ground by 6 grown men and called names, she was holding some food for my girls while I was in line getting more, I went over there as it was happening and ended up in a physical confrontation with the group. Security arrived and nothing was done, they didn’t even replace the food that was now on the floor. Needless to say we left the stadium and went home (I was living in KC at the time). 
     

    I called the team and complained nothing was ever done.
