Rain/snow and the game plan

[Italian Bills]

Because the weather expected, the game plan should be more conservative than usual. 
 

We have to eat the clock, mix pass and run all the game long, short and fast throws, lot of screens and play actions, with some deep shot here and there. 
 

The D will be maybe more crucial than O.

So we have time to build a dome by Sunday?!?!!?

why would the game plan be any different than any other day?

I love the weather report. Mike White has small girlie hands and Josh Allen has big guerrilla hands.

I mean that with rain or snow mistakes could be more possible, drops, picks or fumbles… slippery conditions usually helps weaker teams.

You know I think I need to apologize I came office kind of condescending what I meant to say is it’s the Jets and there secondary is very good, so why would we not try to establish a run game like we have been doing?

Exactly, i said mix well the pass game with the ground game, well balanced, using short throws to avoid risks, using Knox more in the middle.

That’s what I was thinking.  Building a stadium in time for the game Sunday might be a bit much, but building some sort of dome over the current stadium should be possible, no?

 

if every household donated their Saran Wrap, I bet they could McGyver a dome out of it and keep the elements out

The weaker team likely will also be affected by the conditions. Both need to take care of the ball period. White is prone to interceptions because he want to get the ball out very fast to avoid sacks but can make poor decisions under pressure. He very much relies on timing and doesn’t create/improvise  when things break down. He’s an Andy Dalton type to me.

So, based on your thought, it should be the right game to sending more blitz. 
 

Not saying tons of, but increase our usual times.

If every person in the lots brings in their pop-up canopy, and a bunch of bungee cords, we could probably do a redneck dome over the stadium.

We might see a dome built in Buffalo before an effective screen game.

A bunch of really long pop-up canopies going from sideline to sideline should do the trick.

That’s a myth 

 

Weather conditions always effect defense more than offense 

 

ALL The offensive  players know the play call and all the receivers know what they are running 

 

the defense is literally a step behind and in the same conditions

It’s genetic… Allen’s dad fought for the North Vietnamese I heard.

[Never NEVER Give-up]

I apologize - every game I go to has crap-weather.  Guess who's going tomorrow?

[Buffalo_Stampede]

Rain and snow but very little wind. Such an odd weather day for Buffalo.

Get off it. You 'domers" embarrass yourselves.  There will be no dome. 

[jwhit34]

Any talk of moving it to Detroit? 

[Airseven]

Weather won’t impact the Bills game plan. It never does. Allen will throw through it for better or worse.

i think it should be the opposite.  Blitz less.

 

Heard on Sirius 88 that rookie-type QBs nowadays are taught to look for blitz and quickly get the ball out.  Basically run a 1 or 2 read offense.  But that the better plan is to "make them play quarterback."  Make the rookie have to read the whole field, decipher actual coverage beyond his hot reads, etc. 

 

And i think this especially applies for a defense like ours, that can get pressure with 4.  Because against a good savvy QB who moves in the pocket and can "feel" pressure, you need sacks.  But against a rook, who doesnt know how to get to his 3rd or 4th read, that extra second should be enuf time for our rush to actually get home.   IOW, everybody can be a "finisher" against a rookie.  We dont need Von Miller this game.

[WotAGuy]

Put up 400 passing yards on ‘em Josh. Make ‘em pay for your crappy game last time. 

[Bills fan since 87]

Actually, hourly looks absolutely fine.  Weather was much ado about nothing!
