When the bills let the Eagles D settle down and make substitutes, they would easily fugure out it's a pass and line up for it.

Our O looked good when we didn't let their D settle down. Burns started to run for gains whether it was a run or pass.

We have a qb who can burn you when D's do not know how to line-up against us. What pisses me off is that we have more weapons than the Vikes and yet Gus looked way better than Drew today.

There is nothing wrong with our rb's. It's pretty obvious it's all Gilbride. the eagles successfully ran via running by committee , it didn't matter if it was a rookie rb who was back there. Henry, Burns and McGahee will do nothing for as long as Gilbride is the OC.

He has not shown the ability to make successful gameday decisions and GW who is the HC doesn't have the ball to have the final say on what goes on w/ the O.

Drew is like Kelly in many ways. Kelly however was not afraid to take this team into his hands but was smart about it. He wasn't afraid to call Thurman's nos. instead of his. I think Drew can run the no-huddle but has to be smart about it .

Bring in Kelly for qb coach and fire Gilbride.

GW---"Kevin Gilbride did a good job on trying to reestablish the rhythm by going to the no-huddle. We got a little more comfortable. We just flat got away from the run and we had a chance to move the ball a little bit."

Sorry to keep bringing this thing back up, I'm a firm believer that we can get into a rythm early in the game if Drew keeps defenses guessing .

Marv was on WNSA this morning and he was wondering why most teams do not use the no-huddle as their basic scheme. He noticed how we scored two td's yesterday because of it. Only the colts use it and have so far been successful at it.

He also stated that when the bills score early, we are able to use the clock in our favor. (Pats and Jags) This is the way Kelly used to win games when we would lead early and run the ball after a huge lead. Teams will start to stack up the Dline and then make them pay just like we did against the Jags.

Gilbride is so predictable because he has no running schemes. Last year was misleading, in terms of Henry's nos. For the most part the pass opened the run instead of the run opening up the pass.

Run the no huddle early and eat up the clock when we lead.
