John from Riverside Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 To me this game is so simple, the offensive game plan was terrible. They spent the first half trying to play within 5 yards of the LOS. I have no idea why. The Bills run the ball and go up top. The second part didn't happen th entire day. You can't walk into the game and not try to do what you do best. That's 100% on Roman. This is where I am at.....its almost like Roman just outsmarted himself today Agree, this was his worst performance; it started early. They didn't try to do what they do best. That's inexcusable to me. Getting beat is one thing, but not playing your game is another. They should have played their game, win or lose. The difference in this game to me is I have seen Roman do this before in 1st halves....then in second halves you just get the feel that he turns Tyrod loose to become the playmaker that he is. Not this game....I felt like pocket passer QB was just shoved down everyones throat no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Sack Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 He was very truthful in this. But it is a little more accurate if he said "taking what I saw." Good point. Tyrod was a bit testy in his presser. I like that. Whatever happened today it seemed the Ravens knew his weaknesses and played him to them. Tyrod was never settled and the offense was too static. Roman should have added more designed motion & bootlegs to dictate to the Ravens defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Wait, you mean he's not a franchise QB? I have no illusions that he's a top 5 or so guy or anything. He's the type that's in the teens. You can't 109% count on big days week in and week out but there is much worse out there. Hopefully he shows the better parts of what we saw last year next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDH Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 And that shouldn't scare a team with a QB who runs like an elusive RB. He should be able to GASH teams that blitz him. You design a gameplan to make teams PAY for blitzing and then they stop. Either that or beat them with quick passing plays that are capable of picking up chunk yardage vs. the blitz - like a simple slant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Which means we're seeing his ceiling. No, if it was the bad end of the spectrum we call it his floor, hopefully. He will ideally play ABOVE today most weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatdrinks Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 What makes you think that Tyrod had the green light to throw deep based on the offense we saw today? - We have the MOST mobile qb in the league.....QB keeper?.....bootleg? Moving pockets? - Sammy gets what...3 targets when he needs more like 8 - Force feeding Shady on screens that the OL wasnt blocking for This is Roman.....he wasnt playing to his QBs strengths today Don't forget, nearly every pass TT threw was off the mark. Everything was high. TT was just bad today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Tyrod isn't a concern to me. He can play. They need to let him to what he does best. He barely carried the ball and didn't go up top besides for the broken play. Again, this is on Roman. You need to do what you do best and make teams react. The Bills coaches are always the "smartest guys in the room." Stop trying to fool people with what you think they aren't ready for. The Bills run well and are good up top. They didn't do either today and that falls on Roman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 In today's NFL, you cannot have an entire game with zero attempts to threaten the opposing defense downfield. Simply put, It's unacceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#34fan Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 It's a mickey-mouse offense. -Period.. Why do have all these pieces like Powell, O'leary and Goodwin if we're not going to use them.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Either that or beat them with quick passing plays that are capable of picking up chunk yardage vs. the blitz - like a simple slant. It can't be the underneath stuff. Rex runs a defense entirely based on getting QB's to throw quick passes behind the sticks and when executed it keeps teams off of the scoreboard.......as it did with Tyrod today. Woods and Salas aren't RAC guys and Taylor doesn't put those passes in perfect spots with timing to execute that kind of offense. They really need to keep trying to do what they do best......and that may mean rolling Taylor out and buying time to get those guys WIDE open for big plays........it's a blessing to have a QB who can buy huge time with his feet and hit those deep passes......they need to take advantage of that.

26CornerBlitz Posted September 11, 2016 Author Share Posted September 11, 2016 @TyDunne Whether it's on Tyrod Taylor or Greg Roman, #Bills have to go deep more often. Wasn't that what he did best? Why they paid up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
