What happened to the run game in the second half?

[Einstein]

I haven’t had a chance to go back and watch and won’t have much free time until Sunday. For those who have, what happened to the run game in the second half? We went from gashing them for 5-10 yards per run in the first half, to getting very little traction in the second half.

They were trying to kill the clock and didn't mix it up enough. It started getting to be a handoff to Cook on 1st & 2nd. And they started stuffing the run on the 2nd down.

Miami started run blitzing, Bills didn't really adjust.

The Dolphins run blitzed us all half and dared us to beat them over the top.

They got into a 50 front covering up the Bills offensive line and creeping the Safety down in the box. 
 

They essentially committed 8 men in the box on early downs then went soft shell in passing situations. Brady should have gone more playaction in the 2nd half in my opinion on 1st down

You would think that would have left the middle of the field open where the run blitz came from.

Absolutely !!

Miami adjusted as you'd expect, the Bills didnt counter-adjust.

 

A lot of that game last night seemed like the Bills were trying to get away with only showing a very vanilla game plan.
