If Baker continues to struggle and we are trying to win we maybe should go to hurry up so the defense can't easily disguise things. It's a little gimmicky and stresses the defense but it would work I think for our offense. We’ve both been beating this drum for 2 years. It forces defenses to play more base sets and decreases their ability to be creative. The fact that we have TE’s who can line up in the slot as well as a dual threat back like Hunt gives us a huge amount of versatility. You’d think it would be a no brainer.

It doesn't mean you can't still run the ball. The Bills went to 4 straight Super Bowls running that kind of offense and Thurman Thomas was a big reason why. Our defense might get gassed but most of them aren't significantly better than their replacement player anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills went to 4 straight Super Bowls running that kind of offense and Thurman Thomas was a big reason why. That’s what I meant with the TE’s and Hunt. We could run anything from a single back with 2 TE’s blocking in a power run game to flexing any or all of them out and going empty and anything in between. It forces the defense to run their base personnel group and limit subs. 13 minutes ago, Thomas5737 said: Our defense might get gassed but most of them aren't significantly better than their replacement player anyway. And it’s not like you have to do it every drive or start drives with it. If you manage a first down or two and the defense has had a breather, crank up the tempo a bit. If they need more time, don’t. It’s not rocket surgery. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 (edited) Thomas brought up an interesting comp. Why can’t we try to run what the Bills of the 90’s ran? I think we need 1 more deep threat to pull it off. Edited October 24, 2020 by candyman93 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I really hope D’ernest Johnson gives us good reps this week. We’re still 3 weeks away from Chubb returning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

candyman93 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Baker will play good tomorrow. My only concerns are making Burrow pay if he’s throwing it 40+ times tomorrow. Offensive line needs to perform better this week too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Johnson Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 15 hours ago, AkronsWitness said: He's been horrible. Dating back to last year. From shotgun RPO or play action under center: 73% completion. 9TD/4INT. 4 sacks. Doing anything else: 52% completion. 5 TD/9INT. 20 sacks. He can not 3 step drop from under center and throw the ball well. He needs misdirection to throw the ball well. Yeah that pretty much nails it. You get misdirection from the defense if you make your pass looks identical to the run looks. Stefanski's run looks are from under center. Where Baker becomes a detriment is when we are in obvious passing situations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
