KC is built on Mahomes throwing the ball, but he can throw to WR's, a TE (Kelce), a RB and they can run the ball. Green Bay is built on Rodgers throwing the ball, but he can throw to WR's, a TE (Tonyan), a RB and they can run the ball. Tampa Bay is built on Brady throwing the ball, but he can throw to WR's, TE's (Gronk/Brate), a RB and they can run the ball. Buffalo is built on Allen throwing the ball, and he can throw to WR's. 5 2 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fine passing on a guy like Dupree. Getting either Tomlinson or or L. Williams would be really helpful for the entire D. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we need to have a balanced attack like an Indy, Tennessee, etc. We just need the ability to kill you with the run game if you don't respect it. A guy like Fournette (football ability, not the person) would go a long way. We can make up these kinds of plays with passing concepts too. We seem to never put Josh behind center for a super quick 3 step drop. I don't get it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're one dimensional, which we were, it's much easier to defend. our inability to score against the WORST red zone D (KC) was very telling. Exactly. Look at the Bills teams of the early 90's. They were just as successful passing the ball as they were running it. Thurman was the key to the no-huddle. When he was having a good game that made Kelly's life so much easier throwing it to Reed, Lofton etc etc. Allen will be much more dangerous with a strong running game to compliment him. Plus you need to be able to run the ball at certain points in the game. 3rd and 1 to convert a first down. Have a lead late in the 4th you want to run it and control the clock. Sure its a passing league and Allen throwing is definitely a focal point of the offense but running the ball will always be needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was VERY evident that we had no other punches when KC took away our banged up WR group. Knox may be able to develop into that, but Singletary's inability to do anything before he was benched killed us early. Brady has been using Fournette in the pass game a ton, and with big success. We need to get Allen, at least, legitimate weaponry at RB.... and that doesn't mean we run the ball a ton with that back. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most college football was cancelled this year. Seems like this would be another good draft to trade for a player you like already in the league rather than college kid. Much like the Diggs move.

We tried to get Le'Veon Bell during the season so I can't imagine Beane is truly thrilled with what he's seen, especially after Singletary's disaster of an AFCCG. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 3 minutes ago, ScottLaw said: Tampa also has stars all over the place. WR, defensive line, LBs, CBs. They are stacked. We have Allen, Diggs, and White and a bunch of solid guys and JAGs. This is the truth. We dont have nearly as much talent as people think we do. Allen is the difference between being one of the worst/best teams in the league. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh believe it or not will improve more. But we absolutely have to build a strong run game. I'm not saying we have to tell Josh to stop throwing but we have to give him a fighting chance. Brandon will need to find a better RB & DE. Too 2 priorities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This offense is about throwing the ball. You are correct, I agree completely with your last paragraph, it is spot on. I truly hope that is what Coach means when he says we need to run the ball better, I hope he concentrates on effective blocking schemes so we can actually run the ball, vs upping the volume of run plays, which would not be the way to go.

This offense is about throwing the ball. I believe the lack of a running game hurt the Bills in the playoffs especially down in the red zone. If they ran the ball better, it would pressure the defense more. I want the Bills to throw the ball but there are instances in a game where they should run it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
