Orlovsky: Bills have become one of best screen teams
Rockinon replied to Steel City Mafia's topic in The Stadium Wall
Singletary is #2 only behind Diggs in receptions, receiving yds. It appears to be working. -
When would we hear if Tre is coming off IR?
Rockinon replied to Hebert19's topic in The Stadium Wall
Early on we heard reports that Tre was working hard to get back. His idea of working hard is going against Diggs every day. For all we know, he may have been out there pushing the limits for the last 4 weeks and getting in game shape. Could be ready to roll or could need a couple more weeks. Honestly, don't think it's going to be a long road back for him at this point. -
Pittsburgh is banged up too. How the heck did they let the Jets beat them?

NFL WEEK #4 - Bills at Ravens - 1st Half Thread
Rockinon replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Rock and Roll time....Go Bills!!! -
The Ravens run a heavy offense. Less WRs and lean toward running the ball more and using TEs to block or bump and run a route. The Bills, to counter will have fewer DBs more LBs and it looks like another DT will be elevated from the practice squad. The objective I think, is to stop the run and force Jackson to throw. I think someone on the defensive line will have a big day. Maybe a linebacker. Can't decide who has the big day with all the DTs nursing injuries.

That's going to bite them in the ass. -

Sometimes those RPOs suck. The delay while Josh is deciding whether to keep the ball or hand it off is what gave Moss no chance. -

I honestly think the pass rush will be a factor as well. Those guys on the DL are going to ball out to help out the secondary -

I think with Morse's history of concussions, they have been preparing for this possibility for the last couple of years. They'll be fine. -

When the Buffalo offense comes out hot and leaves Miami in the dust, I see a fight breaking out. -

Screw that. I want to see Tua on his back multiple times throughout the game. -

I don't think running will be a big part of their game plan with 2 rookie CBs starting. They are going to test those rookies after torching the Ravens rookies last week. -

He was ready to play last week. Coach kept him out then. All ready rested an extra week. -
Just a side note. McDermott was a defensive coordinator too. Frazier may very well be a great defensive mind, but the Buffalo defense looks much more like the Carolina defense that McDermott ran than the defense that Frazier ran in previous jobs. As far as Frazier going somewhere else, he is getting old. Perhaps, a team will overlook that and hire him. Perhaps not. For now, I'm just happy that he is here.

If Buffalo does what they did to the Titans every week.....score so many points that they can take the starters out by the 4th qtr, receiving the 1st kickoff becomes more important. Also, the Titans are not a bad team. However, they were under duress the entire game because Buffalo just never let off the gas. There are many different ways to look at it. Titans couldn't keep up. They started taking chances and as a result made a lot of mistakes. Also, just because the side that defers is last to receive does not mean they will be the last to possess the ball. So, whoever receives 1st, has a chance to receive 1 more time than the team that defers. Once in the first half, but then the other team has a chance to possess the ball one more time. Personally, I think it averages out. There are arguments for each. I do believe the second half is where you have a clearer picture of who has more talent and who wants it more. I'm not sold though that deferring has any significant advantage. The game is played for 60 minutes. 30 in the 1st half, 30 in the 2nd.

All the games on right now are pretty one sided.

I seem to recall McDermott saying last season or perhaps the season before that the run game needed to improve. At the time the Bills were attempting more of a power rushing attack but it wasn't working. He mentioned that it's not just the running backs that needed to improve. I believe they wanted then to go to more zone blocking but realized they didn't really have the personnel to do it. What we saw late in the season was a 6th offensive lineman come in from time to time. The run game improved toward the end of the season. Now with Kromer, I believe the run game will improve week in and week out as the offensive linemen become more familiar with the blocking schemes. Adding Saffold, I believe was another huge help. The OL as a whole will see a marked improvement this year.

That's the nature of the game. You always try to draw up a great game plan. Sometimes an opposing team is just going to have a better one. Sometimes the opposing team just has great talent too. Yes, there is always a game within the game. Love it when fans recognize it and post it here. Kromer's value as a coach is going to be noticed as the year progresses. He's been around for a long time and his history of success is impressive.

Generally, guys on the offensive line love run blocking. You get to hit instead of just trying to hold your ground while being hit. The movement and the downline blocking gets more guys involved. This is what I love about mixing up zone blocking schemes with power blocking. Clearly, Kromer is making sure every player has an assignment and if you think they look good now, wait a few games into the season and compare. The blocking is only going to get better. Can't wait to see what they do next week.

The way this team just dismantled the defending Superbowl champs, I don't see any more than a couple of losses all season. We'd have to get hit hard by injuries and even then, this team still looks tough. Both offense and defense looked unstoppable Thursday night and they are only going to get better as the season goes on. I look at it this way. If we lost our best defensive player(Von?) could we still win? If we lost Allen on offense, could we still win? I think the answer to both is yes. We have backups all over the place that are good enough to start. For the last couple of years, we have learned that there is not one team out there that the Bills can't beat. Now it appears the team has only gotten better. Yes, the games still have to be played, but I am stoked that the players are not pumping themselves up after this win. Everyone appears to be buying into this system and staying humble, staying focused on the next game coming up. Mark my words, these guys are on a mission. They aren't going to rest until they are hoisting a Lomardi.
