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!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

So Roman simplified read for Tyrod in the Dolphins game ...
Re: So Roman simplified read for Tyrod in the Dolphins game ...
you gotta be kidding
tyrod isnt ready to be put with the best qbs in the league who you can say see the whole field but cmon, hes been finding guys way past one read every game hes played
theres probably some truth to what the author was pointing out, but to say the game has to be simplified for him is silly
Re: So Roman simplified read for Tyrod in the Dolphins game ...
I think some are over-looking the fact that all QB's make pre-snap reads based on the defenses formation, movement, etc, (well, they should be) so none are really 'one-read' guys. Good ones know where they are going with the ball before it is even snapped and function as a 'one read' anyway. The better ones know the offense well enough to go to a second or third 'read' if they ****ed up the pre-snap read.
If Taylor has the ability to read a pre-snap well enough to get rid of the ball successfully on one read post-snap on a consistent basis I'm really OK with that.

Re: So Roman simplified read for Tyrod in the Dolphins game ...
I think it's lost on everyone that it was a 5 point game with 4 minutes left with the Pats. Rex got everyone over fired which Marv did many times in big games.
Tyrod doesn't need the offense dumbed down. Coaches needed to adjust and they did.
Tyrod is going to be a Superstar in this league.
The Giants play a very similar gameplan to the Pats. Let's see if the Bills adjust correctly.
Re: So Roman simplified read for Tyrod in the Dolphins game ...
I think the gameplan going into this game was flawless regardless of reads on some of the plays. We started the game with misdirection and the Phins had no answers for it and then Roman put Taylor on some easy spots for him to exploit the cracks on the Phins D. We hit first and the defense did the rest against a team that lacks identity at this point.
Execution is very important, always, but Roman is an OC smart enough to beat teams with gameplan and schemes. Against the top dogs, players will have more say in the outcome of games.
Re: So Roman simplified read for Tyrod in the Dolphins game ...
Im not so sure Roman's plan was done to simplify reads for Taylor as it was to cause confusion for the Fins. He was doing a great job of creating flow one way and isolating a single area.
Offensive coordinator Greg Roman devised a brilliant plan that included a mixture of short, intermediate and long throws for which the Dolphins’ defense was woefully unprepared. He called no long drop-back passes on the first drive to, as Ryan said, “see if they could get in Ndamukong Suh’s head a little bit and the outside rushers.” Roman created coverage mismatches everywhere. He moved Taylor around, allowing him to still be highly effective from the pocket despite the Dolphins’ strategy of keeping him contained and daring him to beat them with his arm.
“Just keeping the Dolphins on their heels,” Robert Woods said. “We caused a lot of confusion. You get the defense talking” to each other “and snap it while they’re talking.”
“Such a creative mind,” Clay, a former Dolphin, said of Roman. “Whatever he says, we believe.”
Center Eric Wood is in his seventh season with the Bills. He and long snapper Garrison Sanborn have been on the team the same amount of time, experiencing much more failure than success.
It’s only three games, but they sense that something might very well be changing in that regard. And it’s the quick starts that the offense has had the past two weeks that is giving them that feeling.
“Garrison came up to me after the game and said those opening drives in the last two games were the most impressive he’s seen, especially back-to-back,” Wood said. “So that was fun.”
Re: So Roman simplified read for Tyrod in the Dolphins game ...
The most important take away from this is to watch how Roman is able to evolve the offense over the course of the season. He gets enormous credit for putting Taylor in a position to win but good defensive coordinators can figure out simplified offenses and take advantage. I expect Roman to incrementally evolve the Bills offensive complexity as Taylor gets more comfortable.
Feels nice to have such an intelligent and forward thinking OC.
COMING SOON...

The offensive playcalling wasn't designed so much to find a weakness in teh D, but to create one.
This is an important note because offenses designed to create mismatches are very difficult to stop defensively. Roman was extremely effective with this at SF.

So we have a short RGIII. A guy that can make one read?
that's not what I've seen. I don't think anyone who watched the fins game could possibly come to that conclusion. They ran only a handful of zone-read plays, they ran a lot of play action, which, across the league VASTLY simplifies the QB's reads (basically they watch the MLB and/or Edge Rusher and/or Safety, usually 2 of those depending on the play), they did a lot of moving pockets to reduce the pass rush, which is a time honored tactic used against strong pass rushes throughout league history, it also cuts down on the number of possible reads for the QB, which is what the author is talking about. It was a comprehensive gameplan built around limiting the passrush while exploiting the weak fins secondary.
