Nice.. I mean he’s no Harvard grad (Matt Birk) but it’s still pretty good.

all about playing with a lead…..that’s Dick jauron’s whole philosophy for 2009. He wants the lead and then send the hounds on defense. Plus once you get the lead in teh 2nd half, that’s when you run the snot out of the ball and use those 3 backs to pound the defense into submission

isn’t that bad. I would bet the Bills aren’t done adding components to the defense. I can see one or two more splashes before training camp rolls around. We should be much improved on defense, at least enough to support a more aggressive offense.

I think the PLAYERS we have are smart enough to pull it off.

Who, me?

Meaning where once before you ran say 20 plays out of a single formation setup with one variation of motion and with changing blocking assignments based on D setup and where the ball is going, cutting down to say 5 plays from a formation makes it ALOT easier for your lineman to learn. From personal experience learning only 5 things is alot easier to remember on the fly in a game situation versus 20.

All you need to do is give Trent the terminology to make it easy on the lineman, with the line calls being simplified (which was going to happen to begin with the 2 rooks anyway), this should just make it that much easier.

Should be fun to watch!

force Trent to make quick decisions. Most will be quick reads – hopefully meaning he’ll get the ball to his receivers more often than always checking down. Could be a big confidence builder! Is it September yet?!

maybe Turk wasn’t so bad after all and he wanted to do this all along and DJ wouldn’t let him. Now their backs are to the wall and they are bringing out the cannons!

The Edwards no hude (we need a name for this) vs the Wildcat. Our games against the Phins just got more exciting.

All you need to do the rest of this off-season is study this film right here. I think alot of our current players resemble this team from the 90’s.

lynch runs down hill like thomas and when catches the ball makes things happen.
Evens is simular to reed and lofton in there speed and the ability to make deep threats.

please do your homework and make this a special year, thank you.

power running would be ideal, you and I have wanted a fullback for a while too!

However, if we can’t have a power running attack, I’ll take a no huddle with TO and Lee Evans than last years offense any day

I like the idea of calling a majority of the no-huddle plays as draws and sweeps.

I wanted a power running team more than anything and I thought going into the offseason the team was only a few players away, but the way this off-seaon turnned out, I don’t think this team is build for power running right now. They lost their best run-blocking O-lineman. They gained a WR that will demand the ball. The interior o-line will be young and inexerienced. New TE that is known more for pass-catching rather than blocking. Never picked up a true FB that would make a real difference.

I love power running and wanted to model this team after Pittsburgh, but the Bills decided to go in a different direction. I’m okay with that. I love the no-huddle. I just hope there is not so much predictability this season. Turk: YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE IN SHOTGUN EVERYTIME TO THROW THE BALL!! Some play-action and misdirection would be nice as well.

and potentially Roscoe Parrish even though many have given up him.

A no-huddle is actually a decent way to hide shortcomings on the line, assuming you do well with it- the theory being that you wear them out because they don’t get defensive subs, and with defense having to chase a ballcarrier and everything, that can get to them. Also, it would help with getting the rooks in there on the line because (presumably) the line blocking schemes would be relatively simplistic. You’re entirely right with the line having to be in good shape, I’m wondering if the youth movement there was a factor.

I’m really not sure how they’d do the playcalling.

I like the Stun Gun. If its a failure, it can be the Nerf Gun. I wish we had a Tom on the team, because I’d love to call it the Tommy Gun if it was a success.

Like any offense though, this will come down to the playcalling. If they play to the team’s and system’s strengths, this could work perfectly. If they pull a repeat of last year’s offensive playcalling (woo, double entendre) then we’re sunk.

What I hope we’ll see is at first Trent just calling a few plays at the line, as opposed to the K Gun or the Colts no huddle, and then as the team gets more comfortable, and (hopefully) Bell gets more and more ready to take snaps at LT and our rooks getting expirience, we’ll see a progression to the Stun Gun. That would be the ideal for Trent and Our O.

BTW I too think a no huddle offence is ideal for Trent, one because he is deffinatly smart enough to run a very good no huddle, and two, it will stop him from over thinking plays and let him just use his insticts.

I’m looking forward to this if it happens. Go Stun Gun!

it’s a QB’s league, a passing league and that’s how you score points. Turk is doing what he knows….he learned the damn thing under Coach Wyche the inventor. This is his forte and this is what he knows. So that’s why it’s a good ideal. If we’re going down, we’re going down with Turk’s strength. Regardless of how you feel about it, this team has to Score way more points to win football games and the no-huddle is a step in that direction. I totally agree with what the Bills have tried to do offensively all off-season and it continues with this implementation however mild or big they plan to use it.
