Chicharito Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 He has to crack the lineup soon wouldn’t you think? I know the line hasn’t been top notch in run blocking but I think the lack of speed is what is hurting this offense. What do yous think? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColoradoBills Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Well it's been pretty much known that neither Devin or Zach can get around the corner and the Bills OL is not blocking well for runs up the middle. I wouldn't mind if Matt got activated for a game to see if his style could fit better with the OL as a change of pace runner. FWIW. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warcodered Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 I mean I don't see anything to indicate that, our running issues seem to be more focused on the O-line. This would be like changing your tires when the reason your not going forward is that you're out of gas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to go back to the days of "95% chance this is a run, Spiller is on the field" with them knowing it's a run outside because Breida is on the field. If you can't run, just throw it.

Brand J Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 I don’t think the running game is a running back problem. That said, I’d like to see either Singletary or Moss traded and Breida a game day backup to the other. Won’t happen though, we’d get next to nothing in a trade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnNord Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 The Bills and Dolphins offensive line were equally bad today. When the ball was snapped the OL either was stonewalled or got pushed backward causing the backs to get him behind the LOS for a 1 or 2 yard gain. It was disgusting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 It doesn't matter. We won't magically improve our run game with Breida or King Henry. Our OL sucks at run blocking and they know it. Daboll continues to pretend he can run Singletary or Moss 6x each at 3 yards a pop. This entire OL needs an overhaul and unfortunately that won't come till maybe next year. We just have to be smart and take our shots at screens or dump offs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Moss but Singletary is slow and small, not a great combination. Teams don't respect our running game at all 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This^^^, but mostly a legitimate pair of offense guards, the O line is a far bigger issue than our RBs, jmo. Beane has his work cut out for himself this upcoming off season. Go Bills!!!

O right, there weren't any. He is not the answer. Breida legit looked promising with the 49ers. Don't know what happened. Agree with the folks who say it's primarily not our RBs that are the problem, it's our OL. Best RB in the world only a threat if you can get them out to the 2nd level. 4 minutes ago, JohnNord said: Look what Breida did against Pittsburgh.

That didn't pan out vs Pittsburgh, so the Breida experiment was curtailed. 1 hour ago, without a drought said: He might not be a difference maker like Christian Wade, but why not, I don't like the way they've been winning lately. *blink* *blink* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
