    Missing from Buffalo...

    Play Action Pass.

    Other plays out of Wildcat besides running up middle.

    Blitzing.

    Discuss.

    or not.

    The way we were running the ball, we should have used play action to open up intermediate routes, especially in the second half when they were keying in on our underneath routes and screens.

      I've been looking for the play action as well. We've ran it a few times from what I've seen, but not nearly as much as I expected or hoped. It would seem logical with a ground game that is functioning very well.

      And at this point, Wildcat up the middle works pretty well. Brad Smith just needs to not get cute and try to go around the edge with two guys waiting for him.

          What about a pass?

          Or Flee Flicker?

          or quick slant in the area vacated by the Lb's filling the holes to meet Brad?

          Sheesh.

            I agree with the first two.

            Our offense is strong but predictable. Play action pass would be perfect with Freddie running so hot. Or swing pass to Spiller on the outside would work too.

            When Brad Smith is in you know he's never gonna pass the ball so if I were opposing safeties I'd come in and stack the box.

            Maybe that's the brilliance of our offense, straight forward and simple, we're gonna run at you so why don't you stop us.

              I just wish Chan would try something else once in awhile when he can blatantly see that the base calls aren't working.

                    They blitzed more yesterday than all season. Did you see the game? And they do have a version of play action when Fitz drops back and hands off to Freddy. It's a passing formation and Fitz is dropping back when Jackson gets the ball.

                      the wildcat has been quite uninspiring.. Not sure if this is by design for early in the season or not but it definitely hasn't been used to its fullest

                        Funny because I thought I was asking a question.

                        At no point did I complain about the win.

                        Some of us on the board like to talk about the x's and o's after a game.

                        Areas of strength and areas of improvement...observations..then we talk about each others ideas and responses.

                        It is called a sports forum.

                        I also stated in the post "Or not" so you had the choice of not responding.

                        Instead you insult and add nothing.

                        You need to figure out what being a tool is before calling someone else one.

                          Absolutely! PAP should have been used alot more. On a side note, I am so glad to see the screen pass return to the offense.

                            Yes I did. Was not what I would call typical play action. Just seems it doent take much to do and can have huge impact.

                              Yes but it would seem the time to do it is against A Dalton and not M Vick? Who can burn you for doing so.

                              The rookie would have been prime target for a blitz or two.

                              M Vick would usually let you pay for such things.

                              The times we did it...it seemed to have an effect if not the time of the blitz but seem to pressure him in later downs. I guess you made my point as it does work.
