Twitter: LNS | Jimmy Johnson: Let's run the football even if we have to take a FG

[Big_D]

1000%..........simple question. How many times did Brady lead the league in passing yards or had 300+ yard games?

Yup.. none of that mattered. They weren’t playing for stats. He could easily throw to his RB 10 times in a row. Not just the king of the dink and dunk but also just taking what the D gives you. And now king of the ring because of it.

Playing for field goals works against junk offenses like the Giants and Jets. It doesn't work against good teams.

The Giants and Jets were good teams.

 

[Mac_MaloneV1]

The Giants and Jets were good teams.

No they're not, especially the JEts.

 

[SackMaster]

The Giants and Jets were good teams.

I don't know about good, but ..... if you do take out their games against Dallas, they are 2-0.

 

[Mac_MaloneV1]

Why did the JETS team beat the Bills?

I'll answer it;

Because Josh Allen played out of control, Josh Allen cost the Bills that game. The Jets defense is very good, Josh Allen pressed and tried to score touchdowns and ended up giving up 4 turnovers (3 ints and 1 fumble). The Bills team is better than the Jets, but because Josh Allen played out of control they lost in overtime to a Division Rival and could potentially cost the Bills the division later in the year. Josh Allen potentially ruined the Bills season.

Josh Allen played the exact same game against the Jets as he played against the Raiders as he does against everybody. Sometimes the plays just aren't there to be made, especially against a good Jets defense.

It had nothing to do with playing in control or whatever you're talking about.

I think it was in the 4th , could have been late 3rd quarter, we were already up and in complete control. We had great field position I believe after a turnover and Mike didnt even try to score a TD. He knew we had the game won and he was just content to play super conservative and kick the FG. I thought it when it happened.... and this is exactly what Jimmy is talking about.

 

[Reid1boys]

I don't know about good, but ..... if you do take out their games against Dallas, they are 2-0.

Everyone in media was talking up Daniel Jones.. hes taken a step forward, they won a playoff game, hes a top 10 qb, then Dallas demolishes them and its... well the Giants stink, Jones is atrocious, of cpourse Dallas won 40-0, they just did what they should do.

Then the Jets gae... hey, the Jets just came off a huge win against a team that is clearly a SB contender in the Bills, the Jets defense is top 3 in the league, then Dallas crushes them and it is... well of course they beat them, the Jets QB shouldnt even be in the NFL... blah, blah, blah..... same old crap.

 

[JustChip]

B/c they have a better defense than the Raiders.

Josh Allen does what he does. Sometimes it results in turnovers, sometimes it results in monster games. It's not like his approach changed lol

And that approach leads to inconsistency. He and his OC need to tailor the approach to what the opponent does. Situational football.

 

[Reid1boys]

Some will cry about dink and dunk.. Brady was the master at it. This is the exact combination here that’s capable of making a real run at a championship.

Brady had a season where he was just under 5k yards with 50 tds,, thats not dink and dunk.

Im ok with dink and dunk because I do believe when Cooks is back, Dak clearly does have the ability to go deep as well. Early in this season... lets let Dak get accustomed to this style of play. as a coach once said, I WANT WINNERS... you dont get style points in the NFL.

The only problem the Bills have with consistency is that they play in the same conference as the Chiefs and, to a different degree, the fact that they poorly allocate resources. It has nothing to do with their gameday approach.

There's really no situation worth mentioning in which "score a touchdown" isn't the priority. Down 10? Score a touchdown? Up 6? Score a touchdown?

Like what are we talking about? Trying to win games 20-13 is a death sentence for an organization. We watched a decade of it with Jason Garrett.

Cool, great point.

The 49ers had a junk offense and also no they wouldn't have.

The idea that throwing = turnovers is stupid anyway.

The 49ers had a “junk offense”? Are you for real?

 

[rambo2]

No they're not, especially the JEts.

They were until the Cowboys destroyed them. The Jets beat the Bills.

Can they throw the ball downfield? No. Junk offense.

Ok let’s believe you over a 2 time Super Bowl winning coach.

That one season was very far from what the patriots normally did.

2 but whose counting. Those Super Bowls were 30 years ago.

You don't have to believe me, believe Andy Reid. It's his philosophy, and he's the best coach in the NFL.
