Something interesting to note...unlike at the start of the previous 2 years, the Bills have not started out trying to force predominantly zone schemes on the run game and then gave up half way thru the year both times and went mostly gap scheme when they realized it wasn't working well.

 

This year, they have stuck with being predominantly a gap scheme rushing attack and mixed some zone runs in. 

 

Something to keep an eye on with the run game and it's success.

this is great to know. I am not an expert, but I felt like noticed more gap stuff in the last game. Now that we have a little beef on the line, especially the right side, it seems like this is the way to go.

At least delete this so everyone on the board doesn’t realize what they’re dealing with.  You still might have a person fooled at this point. 

 

I clarified that it's the Bills offensive run scheme in the title in case there is another of him lurking on the boards somewhere.

Bill Murray's birthday is today....good reason to have a drink.

and big  bill Murray  film was groundhog day so means we can expecta repeat 8f last week's gameolan on and on and our opponents won't be able to wake up and change it.   So we are seeing the Bills recipe for a 16-1 regular season and in playoffs when a top opponent comes up with the plan to shut it down viola instead of getting home blitzing Allen we see him bombard their empty backfield and his biggest reads will be which wide open receiver to throw it to. And we won't be playing wrs that got beat up throughout year as the rbs will have taken alot of pressure and just the hits off the wrs and tes.

Is that a Groundhog Day license to drink?  

 

 

It will be on Sunday when u toast every play the Bills run as they are gonna be groundhogs in the old hogs old stomping grounds.  Fitting to have such a game to cleanse the 80s  skins SB loss when they fielded the more talented team.

If I was living in a ground hog day situation, people on the board will think I'm amazing because I predict the right score and first play of the game every time.

I am still thinking my first prediction wins  as first thoughts generally are correct but I am gonna have a second  score prediction.

 

 Being a big believer in what goes around comes around.  Seeing as we are playing every team that beat us in SB in 90s we gotta cleanse that bad juju before claiming our rightful Lombardi. 

 

 

To begin  we  beat the Commanders by the score they beat 90s Bills in SB. 

 

 

Bills 37

Commanders 24

You've got me pegged.  Shirley temples all around!  

 

;)  

 

 

Lol I got drunk on slow gin fizzles at tech school once when we snuck some alcohol in our dorms.  I ended up puking  as I hugged the toilet and in my drunken state only thought oh I'm bleeding internally while I calmly just went back to my room  sleep it off.....   

 

 Was first time I ever got drunk in my life  I was still only 17. As I joined air force at 17 due to being so bored at school that I dropped out to go into air force earlier and at least do something useful at that time.

SUNY schools.

Reading too fast then assuming wrong point was being made....   

 

I always reread if something strikes me as on opposite sides of my observations.  I don't hold my opinions as infallible truths just how I'm reacting initially.  Upon further reflection I will modify if it's merited by a valid point I initially may have overlooked.

Yeah, that sounds like a beginning drink.  Talk about sweet.  

 

The good ole days, where you could ride a bike to place to get beer because you weren't old enough to have a license.  LOL

Never had a problem getting beer if we wanted to have a lil party my parents would buy us some beer if asked.  My sisters and I were all pretty responsible so we never got totally wasted or anything.  I never liked beer so I rarely even bothered having a sip  even.   And never liked any strong whiskeys and stuff.

That's more of a back to the future vibe to me with Marty mcfly and biff tannen.

Tannen.

 

Groundhog Day just can't escape the repeating carousel.  So you'd never even reach a casino to place your bets.  Gotta use the tech available at time of film.  No mobile apps to bet with at the time.  And I don't know if they allowed the betting in casinos quite that openly think the nfl still was with the. Gasp organized crime elements...   another gasp.... known to some as Mafia.....  is this yet another sign this is the year we do win???

I get it man, reading comprehension is very tough these days. 

We all do it  so I don't really hold that against anyone.  I only hope I catch myself more than not to limit some bad takes.

I think McDermott has really wanted to run one of those Shanahan offense's because he dislikes playing them..........but they've just never been able to get that outside zone style to work with any of the 3 OC's he's had.    Glad to see they are just doing what they do better instead.

Yep. I have said this before. I think he feels they are the most difficult to coordinate against. So has been trying to run one (remember his first OC hire was a disciple of the original Shanahan tree). The Bills have never manages to make it successful. They have called some zone runs the first two weeks.... but they have leant more on the gap scheme that they have generally had more success with. They should keep that balance IMO.

Sonic this scenario if you place a bet and obviously win, the next morning are the Funds in your account or do they disappear the next morning?

how has 3/4 of a thread about something important(for a change, unlike 80% of the nonsense threads started here) turned into a f'ing Bill Murray and colored drink thread??  Can we please stay on topic here to at least some degree?
