Commented on how they have been working recently on hitting recievers in stride to help get more YAC yards.

Biggest variable in hitting recievers in stride is timing and accuracy.

We saw at least two attempts at it on Sunday with Lee and Freddie, hopefully we'll see more and more of it.

That makes sense... They used to almost only throw to receivers running curls or outs. The Post, Slant, or Crossing pattern has been missing from BLo's playbook for years.

The slant to Jackson was a 52 yard gain, I believe.

That was Andre's bread and butter when he played. Kelly was awesome at hitting him in stride and then Reed taking it to the house. Really never saw that with Losman this year.

They need to get Roscoe a couple slants. If I remember correctly, he busted a couple last year for TDs, but I think one was called back for holding.

if they could have roscoe slant and then have a TE run underneath with a pick, that'd be nice decoy and start easing up on the obvious roscoe slant.

the bills need more routes that are creative to get more space. they run the same sets that it's easy to cover them super tight.

I'd imagine we'd see more of that as TE progresses. Slant patterns depend a lot on the QB's ability to make a correct read and put the ball in right spot.

The beginning of the first Jets game last year was the *****!

Flutie and Moulds was another great pair on slants.

Looking forward to more slants.

They dont have size, so they have to take advantage of speed.. TO do that, you need a QB who can hit the guy in stride rather than wait for the ball.

About time.

Evans dropped one Sunday that could have been a huge gainer.

Its not. You work with what you got and where they are at. Same thing with the D.

Yup, and TE over threw some beautys to Roscoe as well. One of which most likely was a TD. :(

This week guys, this week TE will throw some TD's. :up:
