CRA's view of EJ's week 1

[CRA]

Just watched every throw EJ took against the Pats and I have a couple thoughts.

-Overwhelming majority of his throws looked to be about 2 yards down field...lot of RB/TE or cross WR

- then he lobs one downfield. Accuracy looked bad on about half of those.

- He is big and he will run.

So my take? I actually think he gets the ball out quick. He looks to have his mind made up he is taking he short route or check down pretty early on. He also seemed he had his deep ball planned as soon as the ball was snapped and where it was going

I think the fact he looks to go short so quick so often it could play against our pass rush.

That mean those short garbage throws are things we need to take away from him.

Live or die with him beating our weak secondary....

Short quick throws hurt our pass rush, but very much help against our sub-par secondary. As long as we aren't giving an 8 yard cushion like we did on 85% of plays last year, i think we could be alright

I would expect the bills to try to utilize Spillers quickness in space with little screens in the flat.

Need to get those dline's hands up, bat them short/quick passes. U dnt wanna lob those, they will get pickd.

after watching half that video...how many interceptions will kuechly have on sunday?

[TheRed]

Manuel has potential, unfortunately for him he plays in Buffalo.

 

He's going to have a long day against our defense if they plan on having him sling the ball around like that.

[rayzor]

if the D plays like it did against seattle, i don't think manuel has near as much time as he did against the pats. spiller is a guy we definitely need to keep a spy on, though...right up TD's ally.

 

i foresee several more forced throws and mistakes in this game as opposed to what they had against the pats. i wouldn't be surprised to see us hold them to 10 or less offensive points...which might be really helpful if our offense doesn't get cooking.

70 bazillion.

[jfo89]

He definitely forces some throws and we should be able to take advantage of that. That being said, he also makes some really nice throws that could burn our secondary. He's got some Cam in him.

[TheRumGone]

those throws to the rb are going to be fuging annoying if they complete them.

[MadHatter]

He throws like Clausen....everything is safe dinks and dunks.

[panther4life]

What kind of defense was New England playing. Were they tempting with a lot of zone(which made him timid) or were they playing a lot of man with a single safety deep? Loading the box? Tell me more please.

so he's jeff garcia?
