    Will the Bills pull out all the stops in MNF?

    Maybe I'm just grasping for any hope whatsoever, but I think there are several reasons why Jauron might do some crazy things in the season opener:

    1) He's done it before on MNF (fake punt against Dallas in 2007), and in a season opener (fake FG, TD pass to Denney against Seattle in 2008)

    2) He's coaching for his job.

    3) He knows how important beating the Patriots is.


    Hm, maybe that's all I can think of. But for some reason I have a hard time believing Jauron is going to sit back and get pounded 56-10 again. You can mention the records of our initial opponents last year all you want, I still don't think it's a coincidence that we did well until Jauron got his contract extension, then completely sucked.

    Here's hoping Jauron finally figures out how to coach when he's doing it to save his job...

    Do you think the Bills will pull out a few surprises on MNF, or will they just get clobbered like normal?

    EDIT: Sorry I screwed up and posted two threads of the same kind...mods can feel free to delete one of them.

    I'm sorry but Jauron is INCAPABLE of beating the Patriots. Our D-line sucks, our O-line sucks. It's gonna get ugly.

    He can pull out whatever he wants but the Bills are inferior to the Patriots in coaching and in performance.

      Typical Patriot clobbering. We actually got a bit of a respite last season from the seemingly never-ending stream of epic ass-kickings doled out by the Pats. But with Brady back, I expect a bloodbath on par with the 2007 outcomes.

      As for your initial question, I wouldn't be surprised to see a trick play in there, but I expect the vast majority of the playcalling to be pee-wee league conservative - as is typical of a Dick coached team.

        Just in case you didn't realize, I never mentioned anything about the Bills actually WINNING. I just asked if they would pull out a couple trick plays or if they would go downfield more knowing what's on the line. That sort of thing. Reason #3 was simply that...a reason why Jauron might try a lot of things we might not expect from him.

          I've said it before. He's keeping it all under wraps in the preseason, and is just waiting to turn it all loose on MNF. Unfortunately, I'm not sure what "it" is.
          Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

            Read paragraph two.

              This just brings up bad memories. How does a team that creates 6 turnovers lose?? How bad was it at the end when our DB's played 10 yards back, so the cowboys could easily march into field goal range?

              Did our special teams even realize an onside kick was coming.....

              I think the Bills will try and pull out all the stops, do some gimmicky stuff, but if it comes down to the end, being prepared, managing the clock, etc.... they will lose.

                Im hoping more for them just opening up the playbook. because so far it has been dull. Not one pass over 35 yards all preseason, the running has been subpar, and the no huddle offense hasnt been fast enough.

                  I think both will happen.

                      Do you think the Bills will pull out a few surprises on MNF

                      Yes, and I'm counting on getting my money's worth.
                      Plus if TO sits out the rest of PS, he will surprise them, because they don't have much tape on him as a Bill.

                        TO will play well... but it's because he's TO, not because the Pats don't have tape on him.

                            Are the Bills planning on doing things with him that have never been done before?

                            Maybe they will make him the QB. Then he can throw to himself every play.

                              No.

                              Dick Jauron will run the same Vanilla D as it gets pick to shreds by Brady, the same O that will be ineffective because they will be unpreppared due to the fact that Jauron has no idea how to succeed versus the 3-4, and he'll get schooled and destroyed by Bill Belichek once again.

                              He'll do this while looking dumbfounded but shwoing no emotion towards anything on the sideline, then he'll have a press conference where he'll offer no critisim, answers or even seem as though we just lost, while telling everyone he'll "have to look at the tape"

                              can't wait.
