It was a funny schtick. But dammit if tonight from our seats I wasn't SINCERELY doing the hand signals for a lineman declared an eligible receiver (like pantomiming brushing something off both shoulders) and cheering every time I saw #72 report. I WANT TO SEE SPLITS OF OFFENSIVE SUCCESS WITH AND WITHOUT DOYLE ON THE FIELD TONIGHT. It FELT like those were effective plays, especially in the red zone. But that might just be my newfound love for our new jumbo TE2 personnel and the fact that the refs have to broadcast it every time. It probably felt like they were effective because every play was effective last night. However I think the formation has been effective the last few games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 This jumbo package is a revelation. Has solved our short yardage woes. Any time we need a yard, we can get it now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iirc he had 1 (maybe 2 penalties) and almost had another for going Morton Downey Jr on someone after the play. Doyle was fired up It would be nice if we had a TE2 worthy of being active. Are we the only team in the league that only dresses 1 TE weekly? I hope he’s been practicing some routes and they have some trickery planned for these playoff games. I don't have the link handy but he is being used as a blocker for the past several games. Along with Bates on the OL , things have changed singificantly for the offense , esp in the run game. It seems Doyle is one of the reasons and also why Sweeny was not activated for last night's game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see them set throw out of the 2TE set. That’s what I was banging the table for all offseason. Having the ability to run 2TE sets to switch things up and keep the opposing D on off balance. It’s been a key to our run game and it helps open up the pass gam. I didn’t think that Tommy Doyle would be that TE2 but I’m happy that he is. He’s been a difference maker. He might not be capable of pass blocking as an OT just yet, but he can maul and move. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying it will happen but seeing what they could get is a possibility. I’d say it’s more likely that Dawkins gets bumped to Guard but I doubt that as well. Doyle and Brown are both RTs. I suppose with an off-season to train and get stronger and learn Brown could become that guy at LT but as we saw this year he’s not close to that guy yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mistake was not having anyone decent to replace Smith in that role for most of this season. Tommy Sweeney is not the answer at TE#2. Doyle is a much better run blocker and he is athletic enough to catch a short pass. It’s a good role for him and it gives the offense another dimension.

In Lee Smith's last year with Bills against AFC West he was assigned to block opponent pass rusher and he did it with ZERO penalties. Josh Allen said he depended upon Lee Smith for understanding on AFC West teams. Bills should have brought him as a "consultant" for KC game. 8 minutes ago, SlimShady'sSpaceForce said: Hey I wonder.

Best compliment a young OLman can get IMO. I'm thinking they try and throw him a pass this week or next (providing we make it) much like they have done with Dawkins before. BUMPEROOSKIE and PROPS @No Place To Hyde it took a few weeks but Holy cow I LOVED IT last night:-))))) I call that playing up to the level of your teammates BOOM m On 1/10/2022 at 8:21 AM, Hebert19 said: Wait for tackle eligible against pats BOOM you too :-))))) Edited January 16, 2022 by muppy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t that Lee smith was a bad player, just that it was a dumb role for a vet TE to be a pure in line blocker. Put a cheap young developmental OT there and you get as good if not better blocking, save money, and give a guy invaluable live reps at a position that has had its contact practice opportunities gutted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
