Re: Gameplan vs Bills:Vanilla or Butter Pecan?
 

This will actually be a great first test for Griffin. Buffalo has a strong D.

Mario Williams, Marcel Dareus, Kyle Williams Shawne Merriman on the line.

Nick Barnett, Kelvin Sheppard, Arthur Moats and Kirk Morrison at LB.

Good secondary led by Jarius Byrd.

Aug 8 - Greg Cosell
Greg Cosell from NFL Films joins the Sports Reporters every Wednesday at 4:15pm

Greg makes the point that a team with a new offense probably wants to rep there 'new' concepts against real defenses.

You forgot Mark Anderson and DB's Terrence McGee, Leodis McKelvin and the rookie Stephon Gilmore. Their defense is very capable of being a top 10 defense this year.

Didn't forget them, just got lazy and didn't feel like listing the whole roster. :D

McGee is hurt I think.

Re: Gameplan vs Bills:Vanilla or Butter Pecan?
 

I hate to bring this up, but every year the first preseason game some big name starter gets hurt...anyone want to guess who that guy may be?

Re: Gameplan vs Bills:Vanilla or Butter Pecan?
 

[quote=mlmpetert;929282][B]Ive always thought with rookie QBs and newly aquired young QBs should be given them as much time as possible in the preseason, espicially early on. [/B]

Injuries happen to QBs and to the Oline, thats just the way it is. And if the oline is abysmal right now it will probably be just as bad or worse during certain parts of the season. But since the preseason dosnt mean anything we could go "extra vanilla" early in the game while the Bill's defensive starters are on the field with a focus on protecting RGIII. Theres always something to practice even if we play it cautiously. If we do that id like to see RIII and the oline starters stay in later into the game as the defensive talent drops off.[/quote]

I agree. He needs to play and play a lot.

Yes, nfl.com is doing that. $19.99 if memory serves.

Your memory serves you well; It is $19.99. On a side note, if you are considered "in market" or intend to watch a nationally televised game, be aware that blackouts do apply, and you can't watch anything until after the game is over. Learned that the hard way when I tried to watch the HOF game on Sunday...

Re: Gameplan vs Bills:Vanilla or Butter Pecan?
 

I expect traditional Shanahan stretch-zone boot/swap with a few 'new' formations thrown in there on favorable down and distance like 2nd down and less then 7 yards.

The 'new' stuff: pistol formation designed (non-zone read) RB inside/outside zone, traditional shotgun formation (non-zone read) designed RB inside/outside zone.

Re: Gameplan vs Bills:Vanilla or Butter Pecan?
 

Jeez, I hope we look good tonight.
I've been shooting my mouth off at work about RGIII all day.

Re: Gameplan vs Bills:Vanilla or Butter Pecan?
 

I think we'll see RG3 throw mostly high % passes. Nothing crazy or anything that will expose him to a pass rush.

If you don't live in the Buffalo or DC area like me, the NFL Network is doing live lookins tonight starting at 7:30pm Est. Also the NFL Network is rebroadcasting the game tomorrow afternoon at 4pm-7pm Est.

I'll be recording the game tomorrow to watch when I get home from work and probably just tuning in on my laptop while watching the NFL Network to at least get the play by plays from the "Game Center" on NFL.COM.

Re: Gameplan vs Bills:Vanilla or Butter Pecan?
 

Id like to see one of those jaw dropping throws we saw at Baylor last year, maybe something where is scrambles and then tosses it 50 yards down the field.

Totally agree. They'll want to do all they can to maintain a high confidence level.

Shame the Lions have that 2-game win streak against us. Must be rough to be you in Michigan.

They have little to brag about, so that's probably huge to them.

If the playoffs are the promised land, sure. But no way they hold a candle to Green Bay, New York Giants, or even the 49ers. Sure they are good, but Id take almost any team in the NFCE except the cowbitches over them this year.

If literally 1/4 of their roster hadn't had trouble with the police in the last year...maybe they could make a nice run.

I honestly would prefer Griffen to play 3+ quarters as long as the same was true for the starters on the oline. Maybe that breaks some sort of NFL etiquette though.

Re: Gameplan vs Bills:Vanilla or Butter Pecan?
 

It doesn't break any etiquette, but how smart is it to risk injury for 3 quarters in your first preseason game? I'm not sure there's much value there either in leaving your #1's in there against 3rd and 4th stringers.

Re: Gameplan vs Bills:Vanilla or Butter Pecan?
 

Chances we hear "R...G...3" chants, even though it is in Buffalo?

I look at it like hes less likely to get hurt by playing [I]against [/I]3rd and 4th stringers. Saying theres not much value playing against 3rd and 4th stringers is like saying theres not much value to traning camp or practice. To a vet its probably not all that important, but treating a preseason game like practice and giving your rookies as much time as possible just seems like a good idea to me.

And if he, or anyone else, gets hurt well at least he has 4+ weeks before he has to play in a real game.

No not really, in practice he's going against our #1's on defense. That's far more valuable of an experience than playing against total scrubs.

The risk/reward just isn't there.
