35-0 is a big bounce back. Buffalo is starting out vs some really good defenses. Getting the run game going a bit is encouraging. Its still Sept Buffalos offense isn’t where it needs to be yet but are pretty close.

Allen throws 4 Tds and 400 yards. Bills win easy. Pitts played Buffalo well every time. Allen has abused Miami his entire career. No differant.

Agreed. By spreading out and putting the back or Te outside the alignment indicates coverage as well. Some teams do what they do. Others mix it up. The Steelers usually do them. This is a got 3 months to prepare for week 1 and come out and do something different. With that said Allen battled. No crazy win it all on one play. Perfect game plan and Buffalo still was in control of the game most of the way.

Its a tie game without the block punt. Thats the difference. Buffalo and Pitts was a good game. Defense on each played well. Give me an L in Sept over November and December. I think it humbles the organization and come out firing in Miami.

No. Romo killed that for everyone.

I feel like Buffalo are going to draft 2 OLinman and 2 dbs forever. They will win some and lose some. Doyle has potential. Brown I think is very good. A few more bad games and he is on the field. If the line is going to be a work in progress give me the 6-8 guy who moves like a Te.

I felt like when the play calling was questioned after the game Mcdermott blamed himself. He gives Daboll free reign with the offense. I dont expect a play caller change but I do expect some game management comprehension. Buffalo had the game in their hand for 3/4 of it. Without playing well. A few bonehead calls and the game is lost. If Daboll wants a HC job some of these calls are head scratchers. He can hide behind the looks and execution all he wants. That may work with the media but wont win him a job.

Give me Davis down the field. I think the speed difference is negligible. I like Davis’ size, body control and ball tracking ability. Catching a deep ball is a talent. Sanders has never been a deep threat.

I think its doable. Like 60 yards a game average and an extra game. After last week I expect more balance and more 21 personal. I dont expect 3 yards and a cloud of dust football. Use more traditional sets and use tempo and spread to keep defense guessing. Like anything else in football all off 1 thing becomes easy for the defense to handle. The up tempo is like Allens arm strength. The right time its a game changer. All the time limits the offense.

Simple 21 personal. Easy throw to Knox over the middle, wr screen, swing pass to rb. Tap pass jet sweep. Mix in a few runs and now your around the 50. He is a shooter. Wants he is hot do whatever ya want. Imo its on Daboll to get him going.

Allen is a rhythm passer. Get him easy completions early. Open up after a few.

No, I want zone defenders to change there cues and take a false step or no step. Give Allen a clearer picture with easier reads. Im not saying do it every time but straight drop back passing wasnt efficient. Mix up what the defense is seeing. You do that with motion and play action.

I think they need to figure out who does what best. Sanders imo is best under 15 yards. Similar to Beasley. Use Diggs or Davis to attack down field. Sanders will do well when teams play man. I feel like Sanders and Allen were a bit off due to the limited time together. I think Davis needs to be on the field more. Rotate the wrs more. Keep them fresh. Why dress 6 if you dont really rotate any of them?

Bad day. Everyone has them in the NFL. Allen fought through it. Daboll needs to get him in rythem.

What is a bit frustrating with the whole offense back what new things did Daboll add to the offense? That throw back 4th down run, and line Mckenzie up in the backfield? Of the games I watched Buffalo had the most vanilla offense. No real motion, to real formation shifts.

Coaching. Daboll is not the offensive coach Reid is. Mahomes is the best player in the league. Maybe Allen and the Bills never get past him. Maybe they dont have to.

I dont want to run 25 times a games. I want Josh to run less than 4 times. Thats 5 carries to the backs. Those extra runs out of 21 under center. Utilize Allens rare athletic ability and roll him out to stretch the field. Its not a complete ***** show. Buffalo darn near had 400 yards of offense. Play the averages better, manufactor easy completions, utilize a formation that keeps the defense guessing. All spread all the time fills a stat sheet but hard to control a game.

No you dont. Play action is more effect than drop back passing. Even without an established run game.

No. 15 more play action passes I do.

How great the steelers defense played the Bills played as good or better. Buffalo won Time of possession, Total yards, passing yards, rushing yards, offense ran more plays. 1 turnover didn't make or break the game. The penalties and 4th down decisions decided the football game. The backwards pass, the not Offside but played like it was hurt. Couple tweeks and Buffalo will be fine.

Thats a third and short call not 4th down

I feel like it was a sight snap by Morse. Twice today Allen played liked he had an Offside on a hard count that was not. I feel like Mcdermott is going to be with Daboll alot over the next 48 hours. Allen is fantastic. Still Daboll needs to scheme up some easy plays. Wrinkles the defense wasnt ready for. The offense was the same thing from the second half of the game from last year.

Empty makes sense from time to time. In tempo use differant formations to get the matchups you want. They are playing 5 or 6 dbs go under center run and play action. They go bigger spread them out. It looks like Daboll is just spamming plays he thinks works without a set up or a purpose.

I think the team, the coaches, everyone needed a loss. I fully expect a good showing in MIA.

I disagree. Bring a te and back in to block. Utilize differant formations to create an advantage. I have issues. Scheme some easy throws. They were so far off run a bit more not alot. No reason for Buffalo not to score more than theu did. The penalties can be pointed to but the play calling is deeper.
