I'm a little worried about Trent's style of play. Although I can agree with checking down in principle, I disagree with WHO he's checking it down to.
I'm happy with TO, Lee, Lynch, Fred, and Nelson
I'm not happy with Fine, Shouman, Reed or anybody else.
Get the ball to players that can do things.
That said, here is an interesting list of QB's this season with a LOWER yards per attempt average then Trent.
yes, Tom Brady, Brett Favre and Carson Palmer have lower averages per attempt.
I think things will click soon. TO is a new guy on the team and as we said it'll take time to get things going. I think our interior line is going to be dominant by the end of the year, I think with Lynch back we can run the ball like the Cowboys.
NOTHING is a better friend to a shaky, inexperienced oline like a team that can, and will, run.
I bet we break 200 yards rushing this week, and I expect 200 yards and 2 td's from Trent.
This is what I think we'll see against Miami
Bills 28
Miami 14
Trent - 65% 250 yds 2 td
Lynch/Fred - 200 yds, 2 tds 10 receptions
Lee/TO - 175 total yds 1-2 td's
If we win in that fashion will we be positive or negative next week? About Trent and this team? If we're at .500?
