The last 2 weeks this team has been faced with 3rd and 1 at key moments even 3rd and inches and cant get the first down. When a Defense stuffs you on 3rd down that's a huge momentum swing and I think that was the case against the Pats. That just goes to show you how bad this Offense is.

Re: 3rd and 1
If your OL can't gain 1" straight ahead it says to your team you don't believe in their blocking. That kind of decision is like a cancer to a team. Run a sneak if you want. But a sweep? That's nuts when you need 1". That brings back memories of Kevin Gilbride with an OL that run blocked a lot better than it pass blocked passing like 20 times in a row on 3rd and 2 or less (yes really). It demoralizes the OL it really does.

More than a few times this year, Roman has tried to do something against the grain or exotic when a simple run up the gut or a simple screen play would have sufficed.

Re: 3rd and 1
The QB sneak has been off the Bills playbook for a good 5 years now. Unreal how we never use it. Run up the middle you ass.
Also I wonder if our OC Roman knows he's allowed to have more than 2 running plays. Shotgun sweep, shotgun draw. That's it. That's all. Nothing more. No other formations or types of runs. Just those 2 over and over and over again.

Brady, QB sneak, 1st down.
We have a running back playing QB and run a sweep...after bringing every big body possible into the box on both sides.
We apparently have no idea its even allowed to be done.
