Nobody is talking about this..

[WOW!!]

Even as vanilla as it is in preseason.. I can see the Playcalling on offense will be much better.. Especially since the Turner family left with Ron.. Route combination that make sense.. Smart use of screen plays.. Still trying to run the ball even if it didn't work.. Looks like Mcadoo know what to do when a team decides to blitz instead of 5 and 7 steps drops..

It's nice to have experienced coaching..

It's become clear that last years coddling Darnold and Rhule "Not wanting to give away any plays" during preseason games was more about having no fuging plan in the first place. They had like 6 plays in the bag and every team knew them by week 4. Apparently McAdoo has an all you can eat menu with almost too many options, will make potentially adding a reserve QB a little more challenging, It'll have to be a vet like Matt Barkley/Hoyer/etc if we end up needing one

The Bills got very aggressive sending pressure, and I always like to see a screen mixed into the calls here and there in that case. Sure enough we gashed them on a screen. Glad to see we actually react to what is happening now; unlike last season when we ran plays no matter what the opposing defense was doing.

One thing that was clear cut was just how bad Sam is at reading the field. Has hasn't improved at all. What a waste of money and draft capital. He's only decisive when he sees a check down open, or it's a designed QB run. I had forgotten how much I hated watching him play. I'd rather watch PJ and that's saying something.

I mean after what we have seen from darnold

in 1.2 seasons… no wonder we were hiding/coddling him. Rhule def thought he could turn trash into treasure. Wrong.

I had heard that Brady did not let his QB's change the call at the line of scrimmage. McAdoo does and Baker took full advantage of that last night. That alone is a big difference. Two TD's in the red zone for us is a very big deal.

BTW Baker took credit for the Bills jumping offsides when interviewed by Balboni. Said it was his cadence. Man has fire.

Yes it is.  Hopefully Tepper will own up to his mistake with rule and fire him.

That's evident to all except rule.

Can't argue there.  rule is............(I'll be nice) not an NFL coach.

Can you at least spell the dudes name right so maybe we can take your post seriously.. that would be a good rule to have. We probably should ask coach Rhule.

Mcadoo is a Chinese buffet. Brady was mcdinalds right when COVID hit and all they sold were cheeseburgers and nuggets.

McAdoo got a bad rap from his debacle in NY, but make no mistake dude is one hell of a OC. Now if Rhule can just control himself during the season and not start micromanaging that side of the ball....

Mcadoo is the best OC Baker Mayfield has ever had.... If and I know its a big if.... BM and CMC stay healthy this could be a good-great year on offense.

It's a good thing we will only get to deal with Sam Delusional for one more season (THIS season)...

 

 ...hopefully with him holding a clipboard on the sidelines ALL SEASON LONG (provided he comes back from injury).

 

(though with this O-Line and f'n turf, I'm not so confident)

 

 

edit :  Oh...PJ is still on this team?  Bless his heart.

Love the routes on this drive. Safety was split deciding between Tremble and Shi, either one could have scored. Higgins wide open for a 1st down if the TD looks weren't there. I know it's almost a scramble drill but everyone seemed to know their 2nd level spot if the O-line bought them time
