WR blocking on McCoy's 3rd and 23 run


TPS

While the O-line is getting a lot of well-deserved credit, the WRs should too. Shady doesn't make this first down without the great blocking that happens down field. It almost looks like a designed punt return.

McCoy 23-yard run

 

 

I commented on that IMMEDIATELY. Three enormous blocks on that run, one after another.

What bothers me most on this play is it appears that the linebackers target Incognito. Watch how 51 Hodges seems to have a clean shot at Shady from the right side on his stop but appears to be looking at Incognito while 56 Skov takes out his knees.. Trying to take out one of our best blockers.

I'm sure this is just luck. Whaley surely couldn't have sought out smart guys who could actually think on the field.

honestly, hes tended to go after athletes first, intelligence distant second. to have a play like this work out and have so many guys land in the right spots is a whole lot of luck. but good on the WRs and WR coach for having a group that plays to the whistle and are feisty enough to get their jerseys dirty in the run game too

I saw this live and we must have re-watched it 10 times during the next break. It was beautiful 1,2,3 bang, bang, bang. Great blocks and it was something great to see on 3rd and 20. How many times in years past did teams break our hearts and spirits doing this to us?!

You mean like how one pats game they were flagged on 3 plays in a row (false start, holding, false start) for 1st and 30 and then threw a 33 yd first down? Had to have been a decade ago but I always remember that series.

It was great downfield blocking and I commented on it at the time in the game thread.

Yeezus! Woods almost ruined Cordy's season on this play too. I was looking at what you pointed out, then saw someone take Glenn's legs out. Re-watching, the guy was pushed by Woods. That play could've cost the Bills big time.

O'Leary had a clean shot at killing the LB on that play and just stood still and cut off his pursuit. Nice clean blocking there.

 

That was my initial reaction. Smart, clean blocking. Guys could've went for kill shots but laid off.

Good coaching

NO WAY !

 

Not going to lie. I may have watched this back about 15 times on my re-watch earlier.

 

Nick O'Leary, man. Kid was immense all day as a blocker.

A thing of beauty. How often have we said that about the Bills ?

EVERYONE WAS ON THE SAME PAGE hat on a hat
