All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Warning: Buffalo's offense coming back down to Earth
Warning: Buffalo's offense coming back down to Earth
Offense is leveling off. Today 2 of our 3 TD came off big plays. Bills are having a hard time, week after week, sustaining long drives & moving the ball. Defenses are taking our short game away, jaming our WR, etc.
If we continue to have a hard time moving the ball expect a lot of games like today!
Re: Warning: Buffalo's offense coming back down to Earth
So scoring on big plays is a bad thing now?
We would've had more points if Fitz didn't take a couple of sacks near the end of the half, INT also killed that second to last drive. We had some good drives, we just turned it over or took sacks.
Also have injuries on O, **** is bound to catch up to us.
Re: Warning: Buffalo's offense coming back down to Earth
I don't get what your complaining about. We scored 24 points, and had some big plays happen. We have a big play offense, there's nothing wrong with that.

wow! Did you just ask that? Are you really that dull? What's bad is that the offense only had 1 good drive the whole game, just one. That's what's bad.

No, we had more than one good drive, but Fitz killed the two others with bad plays.
Drive near the end of the half and the one with the INT were both good drives that ended with zero points.
Re: Warning: Buffalo's offense coming back down to Earth
What I'm saying is simple. If our offense was better, we would of won that game. We would of gotten within FG range or gotten a TD with 1:20remaining or so.
Look at the prolific offenses, they get sustained drives & they get big plays. They get both! The big plays should not prevent good drives in the future. The problem with depending on big plays, which we do -both on offense & defense- is that when you play a good team that's the first thing they do -take away big plays, turnovers, etc...
Re: Warning: Buffalo's offense coming back down to Earth
the offense is not leveling off, Fitz is not throwing the ball past 12 yards down the field accurately. Fitz is a terribly inaccurate QB beyond 8-10 yards. the problem is if you only throw short passes and quick slants, eventually defenses can take away chances for yards after the catch. That is exactly what they did in this game. the just played cover 2 and tackled everybody that caught a pass immediately besides 1 pass by david nelson. Fitz has to take chances and make them accurate and not reckless or by week 10 there will be no running game for buffalo either. if you take away the 80 yard run in the beginning of the game jackson did not have a monster day once they started crowding the box in the second half.
