Kelly the Dog Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 Stevie must be okay, although the Bills do have Ruvell Martin to go if he has to. I just expect to see a lot of Spiller and Fred Ex together, and a bunch of two TE formations. Graham is a surprise. I think we should have let him get his feet wet and just run deep as a decoy even. I wish they would have not dressed Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salty Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 That kinda pisses me off, but the coaches have way more info on Graham and the game plan. 2 TE formations?? Ground and pound game plan???

justnzane Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Apparently they billieve in Stevie and Brad's groins enough, because it can't be that they trust Ruvell as a receiver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburnbillsbacker Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Maybe they plan on using Spiller as a receiver when they are not handing him the rock. My fantasy team appreciated the WR eligibility he gained last year. I thought Graham looked good at camp and in the preseason so I find this news surprising.

Kelly the Dog Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 I forgot about Dickerson. He could play a good amount, too. Â I assume that pretty much the only reason that Graham is inactive this game are because of the Jets defense, which isn't likely to give Fitz a lot of time to go deep, and in his first NFL game he would have a little trouble getting off the LOS against the Jet CBs.

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I have to wonder why.

We are fine as far as targets go: Stevie, Nelson, Jones, Brad Smith, CJ, Freddie, and Dickerson will all spread out. That's 7 guys, and doesn't include Martin who may play.

JM57 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Not upset about this at all. Like someone said on the first page, perhaps they didn't think either A) Fitz will have time to be chucking 50 yard bombs or B) Graham has the skill set to beat the jam. Cromartie is a BIG CB. In fact, I think Graham gives up about 3 inches and 30-35 lbs on Cromartie. Kyle Wilson is a pretty physical CB too as their nickel guy. Â It opens up the possibility for a LOT of interesting sets for the Bills. 2 TE with Chandler/Smith to ground and pound, 2 RB with Fred and CJ both in the backfield, sets with Dickerson or CJ running routes out of the backfield, sets with Dickerson or CJ split out wide, etc. With guys like CJ and Dickerson, you can run a "5 wide" set without putting Ruvell Martin out there to run routes, since that's what you guys like to complain about, even though he is a special teams MONSTER. Stevie, Jones, Nelson, and some combination of CJ/Chandler/Dickerson will be the "5 wide" set if they go to it today. Write it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Howell, Young, Colin Brown, Kyle Moore, Tarvaris, and one other, a LB but they didnt have the right number  From Chris Brown's twitter: QB T. Jackson, WR T.J. Graham, DB D. Howell, DE K. Moore, LB K. Morrison, OT S. Young, OL C. Brown.  I'm surprised about Morrison and Graham, my guess is they really are taking special teams seriously for this game and they want Chris White and Ruvell Martin active for that reason  Kind of a head-scratcher, IMO  Not really. They likely plan to run more 2 TE and 2 TE/1 back sets like they did in the 2nd game last year, so they'll only be putting 2 or 3 WR on the field. Even if SJ is limited, that gives Jones, Nelson, and Brad Smith or Ruvell Martin on the field. They also seem to have confidence in Spiller and Jackson's pass-catching abilities.

San Jose Bills Fan Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Morrison is the biggest surprise to me.  I thought Kirk was better in run defense than Sheppard or Moats.  You know the Jets will test our run defense… very surprised by this scratch.
