Good stuff as always Walter...I like how this the stats are so condensed and easy to read gj

[Matt McGuire]

On the Bills questionable play calling how about catching it and running for the first down? I'm assuming that was the plan.

And as for "mixing it up" and the play call selection the whole game it might have had to do something with the blizzard and 25 MPH winds

[Matt McGuire]

Totally agree with you the Seahawks need to cut Alexander or he needs to take a pay cut.

[Leo Fender]

Good writing, as always.

"After I got home from the sports bar, I went to the official game page to confirm my observations during the game.
We had 18 1st downs before that final 2 minute drive-we ran 16 times out of 18! In comparison, Cleveland had 25 1st downs before the final 2 minutes & ran 17 times, passed 8 times."

Here the yards per run are in order, it worked the 1st 2 times & then Cleveland figured us out:
5,6,2,1,5,3,-1,3,2,5,1,2,3,3,-2,2. With the 1st 2 plays in that's 40/16 = 2.5 ypc; after the 1st 2: 29/14=2.1 ypc. Also the 2 passes were for 5 yards each. Brilliant"
"

Cle ran on 1st 68%
Bills ran on 1st 88%

there is conservative playcalling then there is what we saw Sunday which was flat out scared playcalling.
