Got a Feeling the Pressure is Coming.......Bills Need Counter Plays


Recommended Posts

Who will they Blitz?? Will Dolphins Blitz?? They are one of the most blitzing teams in the AFC. They Blitz all the time! Van Ginkel for one is a constant torpedo. Watch any Phins game and it's "send the house Fangio" all day. Get ready for it. It's coming as that is all they have - especially with Howard injured or out and Chubb out. They now can't afford to just sit back - it's blitz city as usual in South Fla. Bills will be ready!

The Dolphins currently have the 23rd highest blitz percentage in the league.

Dolphins blitzing?  The obvious answer is very complex, slow developing plays with a dozen tiny receivers, each one more tiny than the last!

Alternate strategy, Josh runs for 200+ yards.

I'm more so worried about the pressure coming from the interior. Patriots was getting a lot of pressure from the middle of the line. I read where Josh said he felt scrum around his feet. Morse, McGovern and Torrence has to be better. Davis, Wilkins and Hand are a handful. Their play will be the most critical component of the night. If they're strong, Josh will carve the Dolphins up. Cook will cook.

I tend to agree with this, outside of the dominant performance against the Cowboys I'm not seeing where the Bills offensive line matches the metrics that say they are among the best in the league. Because if that's the case they would have looked much better against 2 of the best defensive lines in the NFL in recent weeks (chiefs/patriots). And this is another major concern heading into the playoffs considering they are going to face similar front sevens every week should they make it there and advance.

Maybe the OL isn't holding that much - at least the penalties are WAY down.

Whatever they do our oline better figure it out bc the middle of it has been **s for the last 2 games.  

or have a great offensive move to counter it !

Could it be as simple as two eligible receivers blocking (could be a strong side guard and TE) and one or both peel off for a very quick pass?  They would be the safety valve.  

Is this the intention of 12 personnel?

I am not concerned about what Miami does on defense. It’s all about what Allen chooses to do.

Interior DT penetration can be neutralized by putting horizontal pressure on the defense. We don’t do this effectively.

I don't honestly think Dorsey or Brady knew what to do with 12 personnel. It's basically tell Knox to block and tell Kincaid to go out 6 yards and turn.  We never use both TE's as receiving options on the same play.
