I was just thinking about why this Bills team has looked nothing like a power-running team that we were supposed to be and I came up with this:
If we were a Power-running team and had JP hand the ball off 30-40 times a game and using the play action the rest of the way how would that affect his progression as a QB? Would it not slow him down in terms of learning to read blizes, coverages and defensive alignments. I think that the fact that we run a balanced offense (as terrible as it is) where JP drops back to pass more will give him more experience in the long run. Obviously, we cant run the ball because our line cant open any holes, so I think the priority becomes putting the ball in JP's hands and letting him learn. IMO I would rather see JP throwing a lot over the next 2 games whether its effective or not, in order to maximize his progression as a passer, and get him ready for next year. What do you guys think?
