Anyone else getting concerned about our running game?

I think it was a combo of both.....but he simply looked to have no burst to the line and he stumbled on at least 2 of those runs


OK, agree to disagree. Gore is not one known for his ‘burst’, but for tough running. If there’s no daylight, there’s no daylight. He hit the whole like he always does from what I saw...there just wasn’t a whole.

I said it after the 3 stops at the goal line. Why don’t they spread the field and give it to Singletary on short yardage.

 

Thankfully Daboll was listening. ?

Except it too another stop on 4th and 1 before he learned his lesson.

Third and a yard or less should be an automatic qb sneak. Allen is automatic on QB sneaks. 
Shoot he picked up one that was almost a full two yards. Wouldn’t recommend that often from that far out. 

Belicheater calls the sneak every stinking time it seems.  And it works every single time.

I can’t believe it took him until 4th down to figure out that the best bet is to let Allen pick up the three inches.

That nonsense was maddening. They ran the play even though a timeout was called.... and then came out and ran the same damn play.

I like our run game a lot better out of the shotgun right now, where Allen is probably more of a threat running it.

 

Not that I necessarily want JA running more, but having the D more concerned about him is beneficial. 
 

Short yardage was terrible today. Some of that was on the OL, but Gore had a terrible day and missed some lanes. Daboll going to him over and over again made no sense.

DS had 140 yards from what I heard,  and a TD, so no, not concerned. 

 

Go Bills!!!

Funny, I thought it was all Shady's fault the run game was sputtering?  Morse is so overrated.  He is a capable center but not even close to top 10 right now. He might not even be in the top 15.  Nsekhe is worse than Mills.  Mills was adequate in run blocking and piss poor in pass blocking.  Nsekhe sucks at both.  Spain has been regressing since week three. I wonder if the will give Ford or Long a few snaps at LG over the next few weeks.  When healthy, Ford should get the majority of RT snaps.  They have to know by season's end if he is the answer at RT.  Many on here already think he is a Guard only but we really don't know just yet.  If not they will need to sign or draft another OT.  Dawkins is barely above average LT and they will have a very hard time signing him to a long term deal. Someone will pay him top 5 money.  I would franchise him for a year in 2021 and then let him walk.  That way they are not making any long term commitment.  He will almost certainly hold out next year for a new contract. Bills should hold firm and make him play out his rookie deal.

You offer very little in the way of examples and insight as to why he’s so bad. 

Look at the career rankings of offenses coached by guru Doughball and you will see.  Always in the bottom third.   He's a lousy coordinator period.
