Defending Dick Jauron

It seems like everyone is crapping on Dick Jauron for his play calling against the Jets yesterday. So why am I going to step up and defend him? Because I have played A LOT of Madden football, and I do the exact same thing every time.

Reviewing the facts: 2:06 left on the clock, Second and 5, Bills own 27 yard line, Bills up 27-24. The Bills are trying to run out the clock.

Jauron calls a play action roll out pass. A pass is a great playcall because if the Bills run the ball, the clock will stop at the 2 minute warning. So as long as the Bills pass play takes 6 seconds or longer, the clock will stop at the 2:00 mark.

A play action roll out pass takes longer than just a 3 step drop back. Plus the QB is outside the pocket so he can throw it away without fear of an intentional grounding penalty. The Jets had the line of scrimmage stuffed, so a pass play had the potential to catch the defense off guard and pick up the first down.

Unfortunately for the Bills, the play ended in an absolute worst case scenario. It might not have been best call in the history of football, but it was hardly such a bad call that he deserved to be fired on the spot. Don’t blame the playcall, blame the execution.

Besides, how can you blame a guy that looks this retarded?

Of course, when you're playing Madden, you can see the defensive end coming on the blind side of the QB and can quickly pass the ball or throw it away - Losman can't see that in real life.

In fact, Losman is really, really bad at detecting pressure - he averages nearly a fumble per game, and many are when he's blindsided like that. That's part of the problem with the call...

I agree with Krenn.....With any play call, the players need to execute but sometimes the coach needs to take that variable out of the equation - call the fullback dive - get to the two minute warning - punt and makes the Jets go 80 yards in a qr in which they had ZERO first downs..You dont had it to them...You make them earn it...Losman is a turnover machine......Its a stupid play call..
