Unfortunately, having a raw rookie at QB is going to result in frustrating growing pains. ...not sure who did it here, but someone posted a great illustration of Daboll's scheme, particularly highlighting his blocking scheme in one sequence with supporting illustrations...made me think about when Deadskins hired former OC Al Saunders from KC who brought his 700 PAGE PLAYBOOK to town.....overkill (COUGH)??.......... 20 minutes ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: Well Hey Y'all. No working run game, Watch This He actually did call a good passing game. There were open receivers Allen didn't see on several plays. Here's hoping he fixes the run game and Go Bills! ...which is something to get used to realistically as the kid grows over time.......BUT...don't see Ben & Jerry's new flavor "PATIENCE PLEASE" being an OBD fan favorite is not any time soon......

Ugh. Schwartz should be our HC right now. As far as the P word, just give it a few years and it'll all get ironed out. By 2027, you're gonna regret ever doubting this regime.

Schwartz is a good DC; may be harsh to judge his HC abilities on his first gig with Detroit, but he seems content as a DC; pinpoint focus on defense versus overall Big Dawg may not be the stress level he wants.. 2. 2027?...seriously?......I'll be dead and "tanning" in Hell's Kitchen, so text me as long as Apple and Verizon have the proper "heat resistant" tools.

We didn't hire Schwartz because he "failed" in Detroit, where careers go to die, so we hire the failure from NY. That's old news and nobody cares. As far as Daboll, I know the focus has been on the passing game and Kurt Warner's comments, but I'm more concerned about the run game. I understand defenses are gonna stack the box because we don't scare anyone deep, but I'd love to see a more creative approach on the ground. We saw recently with Roman and Lynn what that looks like. If this team is gonna be remotely competitive, they've got to be able to run the ball. That'll make Allen's life easier and keep the defense off the field. Dive left/dive right/pass just isn't going to cut it with this roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both good posts. After re-watching the game the Bills showed they could move the ball. Drives are being stalled by penalties, sacks, negative yard running plays and some inaccurate throws/dropped balls. All of these reasons will happen to any team...............Bills just need to minimize the number of these bad plays. By the way Hapless, good posts about the run game blocking scheme! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
