eball Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I agree. I always thought the scheme of the offense was just fine, the players and QB had trouble executing it Yes, that empty backfield on short yardage plays was a real winner. Hey, let's tell the defense they can totally ignore the threat of a run on 3rd and 2, ok? Gailey was in over his head. I drank the Kool-Aid for about two years, and then realized it was really flavored piss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kellyto83TD Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Personally, this kinda stuff disappoints me. You make your schemes fit your players, not the other way around. Our Schemes would and should be totally different depending on Fitz QB/RookieQB/Vick/Flacco/etc. Enough with this square peg round hole BS Incorrect! The RIGHT way is have a system then draft/ Sign players to fit the system. NE, Pitt etal (you know the guys who can win) do that and have always done that. It is past time to have clear cut systems not this 'Hybrid crap' and put players in that system that can run it. I'll say it again, NE has done it for years, has superbowls and kicks our asses repeatedly doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meathead Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 fwiw, reports are that marrone will be running the wco, and if thats the case fitz could have a resurgence in that system. quick reads, get the ball out, short passes, seems ideally suited to his game and his limitations hey it could happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wiz Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Isn't that what Gailey tried doing? That didnt work out so well. CBF True but even if you make the scheme fit the players, you can't polish a turd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Cowlings Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 During his address to national media, Marrone spoke briefly about how things were coming along. While a lot of it was inevitable dancing around to make sure he didn't give too much away about what he thought about certain players in the draft, I took two points. 1) According to Marrone, the playbook and schemes are 80% done. With a good month before free agency starts. 2) The schemes of the coordinators he brought in are going to be very similar to what they did before they joined the Bills and this is the reason why they were brought on: to limit the time in transition. Maybe I'm drinking the Kool-Aid (I always am) but it seems like there is a plan in place for the first time in years. But of course, I'm just one Kool-Aid drinker... Yeah, aSyracuse play book. Can't wait. Does he know Central Florida isn't on the schedule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
