But handling the blitz at times comes down to the guys on the field executing. We didn't throw a hot route all day that I saw. QB and center. If you only protect josh with five and they rush 6 or 7 someone will get open on a rush 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 10 minutes ago, Virgil said: Every play isn’t going to be a home run. Each punt in the first half was because Allen missed a throw or had a drop. The plays were right. In the second half, we ran the ball well and simply got beat on a few plays. Overall, I had less than a few head scratching calls. The only thing I didn’t like were the roll pit passes that didn’t work all game. I suspect the play calling was worse than you acknowledge. Why is Daboll calling long developing pass plays when he (should) know Baltimore is bringing 5-7 defenders quite often? The number of times Josh was sitting in the pocket, holding the ball for greater than 3 seconds was noticeable. This tended to end in a sack or incomplete pass. Not saying the execution was perfect, because it wasn't, but Daboll is not a good play caller. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone says he should of challenged and we would have won the game then I say if JOSH Allen CAN HIT ONE Of THOSE DEEP BALLS our Odds of winning go way up. It's a challenge that could of been overturned, josh allen passes were not eligible for challlenge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJDK Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 So they disguised blitzes. It’s the nfl and it happens every game. Josh can’t block for himself. 2 minutes ago, Buffalo_Stampede said: Calling out the wrong calls. Allen didn't know where the blitz was coming from multiple times today.

Drives ended because of drops or Allen missing open receivers downfield. If Allen is even 50% accurate on deep throws, we have an additional 14 points in this game Simpleton take Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Only. Look, I think mcdermott would of got some info that it wasnt worth challenging. At least I trust that. He could of challenged it but I can't blame him fully for that and do NOT put the blame on him fully there for the result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I agree 100%. Today was all execution. Guys were open deep, Allen overshot them, guys are open and Allen makes a throw, the receivers drop it. Run plays get called, Ford or Knox whiff a block. Daboll is far from the problem. Today is completely execution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 3 minutes ago, Buffalo_Stampede said: He's not seeing what is going on. There's 10-15 seconds after they line up. Allen is making all the calls. Morse is there to help (and centers around the league help). And if he isn't doing it then he isn't earning his contract because purely his physical play has been no better than average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 9 minutes ago, TJC25 said: If you only protect josh with five and they rush 6 or 7 someone will get open on a rush Indeed. But that means there are opportunities for the offense to make plays because there are open receivers. That is why sometimes you want the center and the QB to be able to identify that and find the spot where we have an open guy. If your adjustment is just for the OC to call max protect every play you have lost the battle and the defense has won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
