I thought the playcalling for three quarters was really good. It was nice to see some screens, nice to see Clay targeted, nice to see the new regime has not broken the running game.
Hoiwever, the playcalling in the fourth quarter was "play to not lose" and I hate that. With 8 minutes left you need to keep your foot on the gas still and trust your QB who is known for taking care of the ball. The great teams dont go to run run run punt or run run pass punt when they are up by 9 with 8 minutes to go.

Pass rush caused 2 ints and like 5 throwaways in 2nd half , McCown was getting that ball out quick. Tightened up coverage in 2nd half, we got pressure and penetration in run game pretty consistently. He rotates his line to keep guys fresh,
Yeah things changed in the fourth quarter. As others have said, there were a lot of 3 step and out plays. Also, McCown is a pro, he knows how to get rid of the ball.

My only complaint is lack of pass rush by the front 4. And it is not as much a complaint as it is a surprise...I believe in time they will show their abilities. But can we really complain when they give up 212 yards?

We will never see what could have been from this clown. He got his 50 million and is not a motivated individual. I think we all need to accept that and the Bills should move on as soon as the opportunity arises. Which could be at the end of next season.
-
They were 20 out of 32 teams last year. Not great but also not awful as the legend implies.
-
He is a dick but I think he is a good head coach. I just can't stand him for quitting on this team.
-
Now he will lose by 9 points instead of 9.5
-
What will the excuse be when nothing changes?
-
6.8 million dollars is probably why he is back more than anything.
-
He is available in my two leagues.
-
They have only played him at C for the entire training camp and preseason.
AND?
Everyone seems to agree he is a great talent. put him in at RG and if Wood goes out, he sldes to C and you bring in one of the scrubs.
-
Why in the world isn't Groy in there?
-
They have til week 10 to do it. By then the season outcome should be more clear.
-
Before I opened the thread I figured it would be favored to Buffalo since Bills fans always over value their players when it comes to fantasy trades. The trade is not very realistic at all in that the teams would have to start over with a QB with a couple weeks to go before the season, not happening. Then there is the 4th round pick, why is Taylor more valuable to require a 4th round pick to make this happen?

If he were to average 1000 yards for 4 more years that would put him 8 or 9 all time. He would have more career rushing yards than any Bill RB. That should be hall of fame worthy.
-
I also do not think Terrell Davis should be in. He had 4 good years, 3 mediocre years. He played on a team that chop blocked like crazy. I am always surprised how much support he gets.
It's kind of inconsistent though. When a guy like T.O. isn't in yet it doesn't seem like it is too easy to make the HOF. Tim Brown is another guy I thought had to wait longer than he should have.
TO should be in based on numbers alone but he destroyed locker rooms and was a terrible teammate.....I think it is fair that is considered. At times he made his team worse even with his immense talent. I do still think he should be in but that is the reason he is not.

Blame the trainers
-
I stopped watching after they would not stop talking about Koby Bryant retiring 4 months from now. Every "last game" he had in each arena was a special. That channel sucks balls
-
A second round pick rarely is cut before year two and would only be if he is a complete bust. No matter if he is a good fit or not, he is a tremendous talent and works hard. At the very least he would bring something in trade value. Yeah the regime that drafted him is gone but even so, it is still very rare to get rid of a high 2nd round pick so soon especially since he is still recovering from surgery.

How man nano seconds from the first injury before threads show up saying "Bills are cursed", "fire the trainers"? 1

Great post! Our rushing attack may get better because of this. Especially our play action! A naked bootleg with TT's speed and Watkins or Zay's speed has big plays written all over it. Should be fun to watch.
With injuries aside, I think he failed to see any cutback lanes based on the unsettled right side along with the mentality to continue to stretch until something opens up. I feel like he stretched way too many runs to the sideline on the right side in 2015. Last year, I think Lynn asked him to trust the line and cut up regardless of how small the hole was. Hopefully he can carry that with him and use that knowledge with the Dennison scheme.
Its hard to go up from best int he league. It is quite likely the rushing attack will go back some, maybe because of the scheme, maybe because they pass a little more. All this shows is a different scheme where we can speculate....last years performance was the real thing. I am not saying they should try and run what they did last year but in terms of rushing output it will be really hard to beat what they did last year.

If has a good season he will break the bank but cripple his new team financially.

I live in NE and I had a SB party in 01 for a bunch of work friends for a job I had just started. I rooted for them pretty hard and was genuinely happy for them. Now they are all super arrogant and I could not hate the Pats more but its hard to blame them.

I just dont like being predictable and sometimes a longer drive can drain more time of the clock than a run run run punt. The best teams dont do this. Yeah the running game is the strength but the Jets were going 8 or 9 in the box expecting the run and we gave it to them. Other than a 3rd and 10 boot leg there was little success. With a running QB like Taylor you can roll him out and give him the option, if the pass is there take it or else get what you can. Statistically ~65% of the time you will still be able to run clock on a pass play. That can be higher with a QB who understand situation football. IE taking a sack can be better than an incompletion at times.
