I'm not a coach, but Bills and Jets make it look super easy as well as the Bills. I'd like to think Could sees that and copy's that. Pats do very well in blitzing as well. I just see 3 guys blitzing all right up the middle and it looks easy. Why can't Dolphins do that?!
 
Why? Because you have to have two good cover corners and a decent nickle...and SS/LB's that can cover a TE. Do we have that?

If not, a good NFL QB will pick you apart on the blitz. I would be going right at the TE and Taylor against us...
 
Todd Bolwes is a heck of a coach. Cannot believe he was in house. What a miss.
 
Jets and Bills blitz 'a lot' but they get killed for it too, its risky against pass.
Under Coyle we used lb blitz a lot leaving the middle open a lot, and got burned a lot. We used it to bring pressure on passing plays because the front four were not bringing enough pressure. That appears to be gone this year, but there is still no pressure from front 4.

You're something else. What has your boy Fisher done with all those draft picks in St.Louis? What about your other boy McCoy in SD?
 
You got that right. Back then when we was 1-15 I decided to pick a NFC team to follow. I picked Da Bears. I feel for the Bears more and more. I will always want Miami to kick Bears butt but it's nice to have a 2nd team cause this franchise is going nowhere in the next 10 years.
 
NE was not able to run on the Bills. Brady threw for 466 and Gronk dominated. Taylor threw three picks and some garbage TD's.
Can we duplicate this? or is our OL that bad?
 
Let's face it our lb ers can't stack up with the players on our rivals teams. Scheme as well but our backers are soft and do not attack. Until we have ato least a mlb, the opposing qb is comfortable.

it's only 2 games but I am incredibly impressed w/ Bowles. he had a ton of distractions the last few months and he handled everything perfectly and had his team ready to play the first 2 weeks. a LONG way to go but I couldn't be happier w/ our HC.
