What happened to the run game in the second half?

At this point I would almost rather Frank gore than Ray Davis. Hes done absolutely nothing the first 3 games

Gotta have that emergency kicker!

They sold out to stop the run.  Brady doesn't have a good feel for the game and honestly Josh is playing a bit too conservative.  We should be calling more play action and we should be going more no huddle to slow down the pass rush.  I do like them running and picking up first downs on 3rd and 2. Putting that on tape now will play dividends later int he season when they have Josh run more.

As for Josh, I think he has checked into several runs that haven't worked out too well.  Also he seems to have thrown more hot reads short of the first down marker than I am used to seeing from him.  He's not Trent Edwards back there but he took very few deep shots.  He threw one to Coleman that got a DPI.  And then the pass breakup/drop by Kincaid in the end-zone.  Not much else that I recall.

I am only through the first half. Regarding the run game, those who said they went to a 5 man front: they did a fair amount of this in the first half as well. Generally speaking the Bills run game was just bodies on bodies and let cook work. They really aren’t doing anything fancy. It’s inside zone,  duo, student body left. Not as much man scheme so far. 
 

I think McGovern had a tough half in the ground game. Curious to see if that continues. The number on condensed formations, and variations of personnel seemed overwhelming to Miami.

That was a drop not a break up.

DB punched it out, it was a great throw and a very nice defensive play.
