3rdand12 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 It's probably fair to say a rookie head coach didn't empty his entire bag of tricks in his first game. At the very least, gameplanning for $cam Newton is going to be a lot different, so I think it's reasonable to expect a few different looks next week. Like charlotte bills fan too said. hope they are able to play to the Team at hand and we see a different D for Cam and that RB. Whole lotta pressure up the middle from MD They gameplanned to stop the run, and did it quite successfully imo. yep I actually wouldn't doubt this is true, but if not this pass rush wasn't that great against a team it should have dominated. McDermott and Frasier no doubt will blitz like crazy against Newton who did not look good at all against the 49ers and still nowhere close to being at full strength because that's the only chance we have of winning this game in Carolina. you sure?

Boatdrinks Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 My only complaint is lack of pass rush by the front 4. And it is not as much a complaint as it is a surprise...I believe in time they will show their abilities. But can we really complain when they give up 212 yards? We can complain when they rush for unsuccessfully AND get carved up in the passing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I thought McCoy's post-game presser may have been more revealing than some realize - he mentioned they had a bunch of pass plays designed for him that they didn't end up using - probably b/c they didn't need them - but I think that's a hint of how much offensive gameplan we still haven't seen. good catch Mr Chalmers ! Being a stoner and being in shape usually don't go hand in hand. Hey , i have a cousin's brother who takes offense to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinky finger Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Not a chance. Leslie Frazier is our defensive coordinator hence the vanilla, bland defense. What you saw is more or less the defense you will see all year. Aaaaaaand - you're miserable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness McCown was taking 3 step drops most of the game and getting the ball out quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Aaaaaaand - you're miserable. he is likely correct though. Frazier is a boring Coach. All about fundamentals. Tackling, ball awareness (eyes) and seeing what leaks out from the LOS then coming downhill. Should be fun though, no way the front Foursome don have a field day soon. and there of course is some truth behind keeping you cards close to the vest as the season begins. Play to win ? Oh hell yes. In fairness McCown was taking 3 step drops most of the game and getting the ball out quickly. Bills were about stopping the run and keeping passses underneath. Seemed to work out.

Good Team Game. Thats what i told my buddies i was looking for. Few mental mistakes and few missed plays physically. Guys flying to the ball ( who the heck is Leonard Johnson ? ) Good plays by a bunch of I don't know who that number was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judman Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 September 21, 2008 the Dolphins used the wildcat formation on 6 plays for 5 touchdowns vs. the pats* (per wikipedia) That was not a week one game and credit the entire Dolphins team and staff for keeping a lid on it and stunning the pats* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Costa Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Sean McDermott should have a better feel for the Carolina Offense than maybe any other human being in the World. I think we will be really well prepared in all three phases this week. Should be a entertaining game. We shouldn't discount intel from Web, Clay, and to a lesser degree Toldozer.

1st Ammendment NoMas Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 The really pleasant surprise was the defensive backfield. yes, Poyer and Hyde looked good and I hope Gaines is healthy. I like Tre too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bills Pimpin' Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) Just watched the condensed game and the Bills D was dominant. By the 4th quarter, the Bills front 4 were getting 5-6 yards push every pass play, was all over Mcnown and the secondary was brilliant hence the 2 picks. I`m not sure I would call this defense vanilla or bland. In fact I think it is quite exotic with the things they can do with the back 7 because of all the speed of those players. They can absolutely fly to the football. I think they compete next week. Edited September 12, 2017 by Bills Pimpin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He helped changed Raven's secondary as well last year,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABILLBACKER Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I think what you're gonna see at Carolina is less of Dareus until he gets back into shape. Just finished watching the entire game and was very disappointed in the way Dareus played... other than a couple of half-hearted swim moves, he just stood up and took up space, didn't have much of a push.

Tightened up coverage in 2nd half, we got pressure and penetration in run game pretty consistently.

As others have said, there were a lot of 3 step and out plays. Also, McCown is a pro, he knows how to get rid of the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
