Like his mentor Mike Martz, Bills offensive coordinator Steve Fairchild is preparing J.P. Losman and his youthful receivers to go to the next level. This means that Buffalo has been working on five receiver sets this off-season, believing that the free-agent offensive line acquisitions will allow Losman the time to go deep and throw, throw, throw.

Re: Blog: Bills working with 5-receiver sets
i like what we could use for a 5 wr set..
evans and price on the outside.. reed and parrish on the inside.. then either split everett or royal out wide, or have lynch or wright roll out of the backfield.
god i cant wait to see some real football.. preseason is going to suck cuz they wont show any of that ****, although i cant wait to see our new running backs at work in any game."All hockey players are bilingual. They know English and profanity." ~ Gordie Howe

Re: Blog: Bills working with 5-receiver sets
If this O-line can give JP time, think what 5 WR's can do!!
Evans and one other deep, with Lynch/Reed/Royal staying short as a safety valve.
Or, if there is nobody open, JP might have room to run and get good yardage!
I like the idea.Originally posted by mysticsotoLecter is right in everything he said.

Substitute "Evans and Price" with "Moss and Stallworth", "Reed and Parrish" with "Welker and Washington", "Everett" with "Watson", "Lynch" with "Maroney" and last but not least "JP" with "Brady". Holy crap.
Damn you New England Patriots.

Re: Blog: Bills working with 5-receiver sets
AWFUL idea. First, we need a power running game to take pressure off the D- 5 WR sets will lead to a lot of short drives. Second, later in the year it's going to be hard to pass in Buffalo- remember how Gilbride's offense faded late in the year? Third, we don't have 5 decent receivers. Fourth, the OL's we added are known more for run blocking than pass blocking (although the pass blocking should still be improved over last year).
I mean, a 5 WR play or two as a wrinkle in the offense is fine, but this article mentions a "pass first" offense. Believe me- it will be a LONG season if the Bills implement that strategy.
