  1. I think the defense plays badly when they decide to blitz and overplay the run. Klein really can't cover and doesn't do anything when he's not blitzing.

     

    The health of the offensive line is also breaking the team. Offense is 15 ppg when Brown doesn't play because Williams moves to tackle and it essentially makes 3 new starters with Feliciano out (and one of them is Ford, who the team also knows can't really play). The group without Brown doesn't recognize blitzes and doesn't protect consistently like the group with Dawkins Ike Morse Williams Brown does. The line is due for a revamp but nobody was complaining about retaining everyone in the off-season.

     

  2. A. When the bills defender hit the jet player on the sideline, he bobbled the ball as he was going out of bounds. The officials ruled this as a loss of control the ball, which is very very subjective in the rulebook, so the fact that he got both feet in bounds doesn't matter. It's a little bit of a ticky tack call, brought to you by an officiating crew that makes ticky tack calls. The other note here is that if there's any question whether or not it's a completion, a pass is going to be ruled incomplete. 

     

    They generally don't call the penalty for throwing a challenge flag on a reviewed play anymore and the NFL has expanded Booth reviews this year. So it was either reviewed because it was a change of possession as you said, or it was reviewed as part of the NFL's new expedited replay review, where are the replay office basically reviews any play that's close and radios in. Officiating Crews use the words after discussion on the field in that situation in particular.

     

    B. On a penalty during a run play, defensive penalties are enforced at the end of the run. Think facemask, horse collar or hands to the face.

    One more whiff on a block like that could take Allen out for the season.  We can’t have that.  If he’s in as a back, he’s gotta be able to block.  You don’t have to level the guy, just get in his way and slow him down some

     

    I'm not sure he was supposed to block there. On a play where the RB and TE both run routes instead of chipping or blocking, someone's probably standing hot in the area the blitzer vacated. Josh has to see that one and go to his hot read.

    He definitely has to feel that pressure on 2nd down. Felt like Breida should have chipped as well though. If he wasn't supposed to chip then Josh must have known he was vulnerable to a blitz that side.

     

    I'm 100 percent sure there's a hot read there if Josh sees the blitz. Its wherever the safety vacated to blitz there.
