jgb Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 "They were probably more vanilla than they have been in the past,” Buffalo QB Ryan Fitzpatrick said. “They weren’t running crazy schemes, they were out there just playing us.” Updated: Mon., Sep. 10, 2012, 10:01 AM Jets gave 'vanilla' look in 48-28 win: Bills By ANTHONY SULLA-HEFFINGER Last Updated: 10:01 AM, September 10, 2012 Posted: 9:50 AM, September 10, 2012 If this was a ‘vanilla’ look from the Jets, the league should be afraid of when they really mix things up. Despite New York winning 48-28, the Bills felt that as if the Jets did not come out with any overwhelming or complex packages and did not catch them off guard. “They were probably more vanilla than they have been in the past,” Buffalo QB Ryan Fitzpatrick said. “They weren’t running crazy schemes, they were out there just playing us.” The Jets defense picked Fitzpatrick off three times, including a Darrelle Revis interception on the Bills’ first drive and a Antonio Cromartie pick that was returned 40 yards for a touchdown. “Versus great players, especially someone of Revis’ caliber, you can’t make late throws,” Fitzpatrick said. “It’s a tough team.” The Bills were not caught off guard by the Jets’ unveiling of the Wildcat package with Tim Tebow. Buffalo held Tebow to 11 yards on five carries. Tebow was on the field for 12 plays, taking eight snaps from the quarterback position, one as a slot receiver and three on special teams. “I can’t say that we were surprised because I think that we worked on everything we could possibly have worked on in the last two weeks to get ready for their stuff,” Bills head coach Chan Gailey said. “When [Tebow] came out as an H-back, as a quarterback, when Sanchez was out and he was in there, we had seen it all and I thought that we contained that package pretty well.” Even rookie cornerback Stephon Gilmore, who was burned for two TDs by fellow rookie Stephen Hill, wasn’t at all shocked by the looks the Jets came out with. “We weren’t surprised, most of what we watched on film, they did,” Gilmore said. “We just have to capitalize on the plays and the calls.” The most confusing formation the Jets came out of against the Bills was when they brought in recently acquired tackle Jason Smith in as an extra tight end to help protect Mark Sanchez. “They put in a tackle as a tight end, they even blocked with him on play-action passes, which we didn’t think they would do, but it’s something you have to adjust to,” Bills defensive end Mario Williams said. The Jets’ offensive line gave Sanchez plenty of time in the pocket, allowing for him to throw for 266 yards and three touchdowns in what was probably the biggest surprise of the day for Buffalo. “It’s probably the best I’ve seen him look personally,” linebacker Nick Barnett said. “On the field the threw the ball on time, threw some back shoulders and threw some good passes. I’m not saying he’s John Elway or nothing, but he had a good game.” asulla-heffinger@nypost.com NEW YORK POST is a registered trademark of NYP Holdings, Inc. nypost.com , nypostonline.com , and newyorkpost.com are trademarks of NYP Holdings, Inc.

Bleedin Green Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Credit to the Bills that, outside of Williams, they seem to be willing to concede that they were just straight up beaten, with no excuses. And to think, all of that without moving Conner around in motion for 15 seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgb Posted September 10, 2012 Author Share Posted September 10, 2012 so Schotty was the defensive coordinator then ?? read whole article, say the jets didn't catch the bills off guard, then the quote from fitz, then a comment about the D then a comment about the wildcat. it's a statement about both sides of the ball. reading is fundamental.

BroadwayJoe12 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 While I agree with the overall sentiment of the OP, I'm pretty sure the amish rifle was referring to the defense being vanilla and not the offensive game-plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthernJet Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 From another source, pretty funny: Another, very important difference in the 2012 team is the Brian Schottenheimer-less offensive play calling. The offensive line held very well – did Mario Williams even play? The 3rd down play calling that led to conversions was the first indication of Schotty-less. The speed at which Mark Sanchez got rid of the ball was the 2nd. The offensive line will always look good when the QB makes quick decisions and gets rid of the ball. Sparano knows this, Schottenheimer, well he obviously had no clue. Sparano adopts to the talent and makes it better, Schottenheimer wanted the talent to adopt to him!

JOJOTOWNSELL Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 reading is fundamental. you highlighted a quote from the opposing QB when you were trying to make a point about our former Offensive Coordinator.......soooooo ok then.....you are still a good person though!

SMC Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Hate to Gato this, but how does Fitz (Bills QB) saying that the Jets D was "vanilla" have ANYTHING to do with Schitty? Fitz isn't talking about the Jets O. How could he? He was on the sideline then and not playing against it. Further, if the Bills D is saying that the Jets O was vanilla, then that wasn't an indictment of Schitty either. That just feeds the Gato "execution is the problem" argument.

SouthernJet Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 you highlighted a quote from the opposing QB when you were trying to make a point about our former Offensive Coordinator.......soooooo ok then.....you are still a good person though! My guess is he was implying the QB was speaking for the team as a whole, both Of and Def. It was sure more vanilla on Offense, that was obvious. On Def it GOT vanilla with a 21-0 lead. BUT who cares, enjoy as the Jets looked good without Schitty as most informed Jets fans knew would be the case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT who cares, enjoy as the Jets looked good without Schitty as most informed Jets fans knew would be the case i just thought the fitz quote was funny "they just played us" -- the entirely of the article is an indictment of schotty - finally we didn't obsess with outsmarting people, we stuck to what was working and kept doing it until they stopped us. i guess I should've highlighted this quote from the article, since apparently some people don't want to read the whole thing: "Even rookie cornerback Stephon Gilmore, who was burned for two TDs by fellow rookie Stephen Hill, wasn’t at all shocked by the looks the Jets came out with." The article is about both sides of the ball and my point is that to Schottenheimer, "not shocking" the opponent is akin to calling a poor game when it appears Sparano's philosophy is more Parcells-like: if you don't like us doing what we're doing stop us.

Pulling out the Fitzy quote doesn't make any sense regarding Schitty, but there were comments from the D in that same article. I think the point really being that it just goes to show, just like everyone but Gato had been saying, that having your FB waste half the play clock running around like a chicken with his head cut off is just as ****ing stupid as we've all been saying for the past 6 years. Of course execution is important, but the point is that it's the coaches job to make execution as easy for their players as possible, and that doesn't involve all of the utter nonsense Schitty wasted the Jets' time with for years.
