Flip Johnson Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 This is interesting now that Gragg and Felton are both gone. Will the Bills attack Baltimore with a lot of 3-wide and 4-wide sets, meaning Goodwin and Salas get a lot of snaps? Will the Bills go with a lot of 2 TEs meaning Dray and O'Leary get a lot of snaps? Or will the Bills go with the tradition FB/RB combo, meaning Baby Gronk has not only made the team but is going to get significant time? I guess 2RB McCoy/Bush backfield is also a possibility at times. Ultimately it will be a combination of offensive sets, but whatever the scenario is, it will be interesting to see who gets the majority of reps. I consider Gronk/Dray/O'Leary to be fringe NFL players and we all know Goodwin's fragility, which is why I'm surprised at Felton's parting.

Matt in KC Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Good post. It looks like we are going to see a lot of our offensive snaps with someone unproven on the field. Tyrod O-Line Clay McCoy Watkins Woods Goodwin This looks to be the best grouping to me, with Bush or Dray added in place of Goodwin based on situation.

A healthy Goodwin + Tyrod's deep ball prowess is a serious threat. Whether he lasts 3 plays, 3 quarters, 3 games, or surprises us, let's ride this kid. I think the Bills will hit Baltimore with a lot of 3-wide and A LOT of speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeviF Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Baltimore's secondary isn't great. They shored up the safeties a bit but don't have much in the way of corners. Lots of 3-wide and 4-wide with our speedy guys. Probably split McCoy out a bunch too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beef Jerky Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 The Bills should crush Baltimore, we also have our own Gronk so we should score about 30-40 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beef Jerky Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Russ? I wonder how angry you get when the Bills win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokestradamus Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) Tyrod passed a lot out of 3 WR sets last year and I'd imagine that they'd look to keep that up. Lot of shotgun, one-back sets with Clay inline and flexed depending on down/distance/personnel. Woods in the slot, Goodwin on the boundary, switching to Woods on the boundary, Salas/Powell in the slot at times. Sure we'll see some heavy run packages with Henderson/Kouandjio in the mix. 2 TE sets with Clay/Dray. I'm glad Greg Roman isn't boring.

John from Riverside Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I wonder how angry you get when the Bills win. beef my guess is pretty angry but u need to stop stealing my pom poms i am thinking we run the ball a lot and put clay and sammy to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Take the glasses off dude. 30-40 points easy? Are you high? I like Tyrod too, but give me a break. The Bills are underdogs for a reason. I hope you are right and I hope you are around if you are wrong a few months from now.... Not that I don't already know to not take your posts seriously... Honestly I dont think our offense is set up to "score 30 or 40 points easily" We are a ball control offense with some good offensive weapons and if we can get our D to be stingy we can win 10 games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bacarri and coke Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Depends on Tyrod and how well Rex and Rob can coach up the defense. Still tough schedule and bound to face some injuries with a team that lacks depth. I see 7, maybe 8 wins. I'm pretty sure you meant to post this in the bold prediction thread!?

BuffaNole3 Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 With the Bills only carrying 5 WRs I think you could see a lot of Bush in the slot this year. More the title of offensive weapon as opposed to rb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL -- as if the point spread has anything to do with what will actually happen. Of course the betting public is going to expect the Ravens to win; that doesn't mean the specific matchups aren't in the Bills' favor. Does every 3-pt favorite win each week? Without a doubt the strength of the Ravens' D is their front seven, and specifically the LBs. Their secondary is average at best, but the addition of Weddle does help. With Tyrod, Shady, Watkins, and Clay, the Bills put a ridiculous amount of playmaking ability on the field. Combine that with Roman's scheming and I like our chances to put points on the board. Seriously -- how many teams roll out that sort of potential firepower on offense? I'm excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 (edited) My only concern will be that the Ravens should know Tyrod's weaknesses to a tee. I don't know if they have the defense to execute stopping our offense though. Edited September 3, 2016 by C.Biscuit97 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
