Could the new practice rules be negatively affecting the Offensive and Defensive line play? Practice on the field is in a way like studying for a test. I have been studying for almost my entire career, and sometimes when new information is provided to me in a different way, I can't grasp it as quickly.
Could the coaching staff be having problems with less practicing in pads? I just spent the last three weeks learning how to fly a different aircraft and didn't have access to a mock up cockpit to practice in before getting in the simulator. It was extremely hard to "chair fly" procedures without the muscle memory and hand/eye coordination that goes along with it. Maybe the coaches need to re-learn how to teach the plays to the players every week? Maybe the new rules benefit some coaches' teaching styles this year that might not have done so well prior to the change?
I don't keep up with Buffalo that much, but they sure got a lot better since last year, and their qback happens to be a Harvard graduate. Maybe cerebral ability (coaches and players) plays a bigger role now? And look at Houston, they are a lot better than last year. Chan Gailey/Gary Kubiak = cerebral. Bruce Arians = not cerebral. Coincidence?
