The part of the game plan that was so successful against the Broncos must have been misplaced in Denver. 29 passes compared to 13 rushes was a recipe for a 30+ point loss.

I practically stated verbatim on Sunday in the game thread. Bieneimy committed coaching malpractice against the Bills. Draws, screens, misdirection, and a steady dose running the ball should've been our calling on Sunday. Occasionally, going max-protect and have a back or tight end chip the edge rusher before going out into their pattern would've sufficed as well. If we had done those things then I presume we likely would've witnessed a different game two days ago.
