A lot of people are critical of the whole same play thing, I'm fine with it in rare occasions. OL beat up, QB beat up, can't stop it so just keep doing it.
 

The worry is he will spam a playcall when it's not working, or in a critical moment when everyone knows it's coming. 4th and short, playoffs, I wonder what play they will call?

Hopefully we get Dawkins back this week,  if we do then the Bills should come in this game passing and taking strikes down the field. The are going to prepare all week to load up the box to stop the run so we need to establish the pass early

Why can't we do the same with VandeMark?  He will do just as well as Dawkins at this point in their careers.   

 

But agree with your premise that we need to come in takings shots down the field.  If I am Al Golden the DC for Cinci, I am certainly loading the box.  And the Bills had best be prepared.  If not, fire Brady at halftime.  (I would absolutely love that.)

Can they do this against the Patriots? I am skeptical, especially since they have 2 weeks to get ready.

I am more concerned about containing Mayes and his receivers.  NE doesn't run great, but they give Maye all sorts of time.  And their receivers are always open.  I would load up and rush 5 on every play from all different angles.  A couple of big shots on Maye is what's needed.  Teams almost never send the house anymore.  I think if a team started using the 46 defense of yesteryear, it would take some time for offenses to adjust.  You just can't drill the QB under the chin anymore like the 85 Bears did constantly.  But you can still bring heat.  I am surprised that no DC's study that, and come up with a modern version.  Instead they lay back and play a shell.  Good offenses will bleed you to death like the Pats do.  And then take shots over the top when you bring LB's up on the short stuff.  I don't like Trey White against either the Bengals or Pats.  They will target him.

We should be careful reading too much into this game. 

 

After the Texans game we were wasting Allen's prime, the coach's message was stale, Allen needed weapons, etc. That was 10 days ago.

 

Now after smashing the Steelers we're the 85 Bears. 

 

Not many realize just how bad the Steelers actually are. They are 6-6 because NE and Indy threw up all over themselves and turned the ball over again and again and again. And NE still could have won that game. They also played the Bengals twice without Burrow and gave up 30+ to Flacco in a loss. 

 

It'll become apparent once the Ravens hammer them twice and they go on to lose a bunch down the stretch. 

 

I'm glad we won, but let's realize that the opponent basically gave up during the game because their offense cannot score 10 points.
