No, I don't believe so. It will take longer. I just need to see improvement. Was the struggle the outlier or were all of the 25+ pt games outliers? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC Allen is one of the highest pressured QBs in the league. Our run game has never supported the offense despite the decent stats to begin the year. And our star WR has not had a difference making year. There have been persistent issues despite the outcome of these games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, their biggest issue is that the product has suffered immeasurably. The league needs to step in and figure out how to reduce the impact of the referee and return this to a league for the viewers pleasure while still maintaining safety. You can see that the players have done their part by and large. It’s the referees that are over calling this game and making it downright painful to view many games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been persistent issues despite the outcome of these games. Isn't it every defenses goal to make offenses struggle? I don't think the challenges faced by the Bill's offense (or any offense for that matter) is a new dynamic. It's always been there. Digg's production this year, I believe, has been impacted by Sanders, Davis and Knox getting more of it and by defenses focusing more on Diggs. The Bill's offensive output is what it is. Stats make it so. The Bills are a leader in these stats. If it took DCs this long to figure out how to defend the Bill's, then there are some pretty shytty DCs out there. Every team goes through periods when things just aren't clicking. This happens because of injuries, illnesses and the many other physical, mental and emotional things in all of our players lives - and then of course the collective of all of these things to the entire team. This is why there are really bad games, really good games and everything in between. Right now, this Jags game is the outlier, simply by the sample sizes involved.

Maybe just being overly optimistic here but gotta believe they spent all week scheming up for that possibility - as the Jets are very likely to try to replicate what the Jags did. But who knows, maybe they gamble that the Bills will be expecting that and try something different. If so I think the Bills might be able to feast!! Either way, keeping my fingers crossed for a waaaaay better showing. 🤞 The cover 2 is not the biggest problem if you are patient and willing to throw underneath. Success will depend on how good the Jets DL is, especially the DTs on the inside. If they overmatch our interior OL, and they can execute the blueprint that’s on on film, then they will give us trouble. Allen must stay cool and have the patience to take what’s there.

Why would Oliver dare to comment on another players contract possibilities? He wouldn’t and he isn’t. It is well known that Klein plays the run very well and he can also be an effective blitzer.

Obviously the talent is what it is, but I trust the coaching staff to make the proper adjustments. Plus, getting Brown back (and Knox) will be a boost: This is the 5th consecutive thread I’ve said this in haha but I think people are understating how huge a boost Knox is when we’re primarily seeing cover 2. We’re so used to the Knox of old that can’t catch lol 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true, but to be fair - Allen did have some opportunities to make quick and short throws before his OL got dumped in his lap, of which he did not avail himself. (At other times of course, he got an immediate OL lapful) Plus, when you let yourself get into 3rd and long, those short throws won't necessarily help us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunTheBall Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 I think the first 2 offensive drives are going to go a long way in determining our offensive success or not. If the Jets are able to blow up Josh with a free rusher or turnstile guard doing the o-lay! As a DT blows by him right out of the gate, we are in trouble. I think Josh is at a precarious position right now and if his trust in this line isn’t gone yet it’s hanging by a thread. If he gets hassled consistently during that first drive his clock is going to be ticking real fast and we will see similar issues as last week. I don’t care if we have to max protect, get Josh into a rhythm with easy throws right off the bat. Knowing Daboll, he will probably open up with 4 deep wr’s on 5 second patterns. Yeah I’m still pissed at this O-line 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffeesforclosers Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 When I watch the game this weekend, I expect the Jets' D to: 1. Rush 3 Drop 8/Rush 4 Drop 7 with two deep safeties on obvious passing downs 2. Mug Rush/Cover 0 showing a defender in every gap on all other downs, with a mix of rush everyone, drop everyone, and everything in between. This sort of flogging will continue until the offense improves. We humiliated Salah last year and his team is toast, so here comes the kitchen sink. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 If the Bills lose this game the wheels are absolutely going to come off and I will start to think the playoffs are in doubt. One way or another they better stop the bleeding here and figure something out. Fix the run game and stop relying on only the pass or we are going nowhere. If 1 good thing can come from that Jags mess it’s that being a strictly 1 dimensional finesse team is going to get us nowhere. Fix the run now.

Bates is being held out in fear of injury to Morse? That wouldn't really make sense. He's playing about 5% of the offensive snaps per game and 20% of the ST snaps per game (~9 snaps per game), so he could get injured every game, in theory. I think that the coaches just have him lower on the depth chart than the guys who are playing ahead of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
