Analyzing the season opener vs. Bills

First off, offensive coordinator Turk Schonert has been fired by the Bills. Does this mean they are no longer going with the no-huddle offense?

Looks like the Great Experiment didn't quite work. At this point, I wonder if they even know what they're going to do, let alone if we can know it :P

Or maybe this is the next stage of the great plan. They know Belichick's going to out-gameplan them, so they just need to fire their OC the week before they play the Pats, thus ensuring that he'll have nothing to gameplan against. Levels the playing field somewhat, maybe?

By the sounds of it play calling will be the only change. Schonert was a very conservative play caller, Van Pelt is expected (hoped?) to be more aggressive.

Pure genius move. You can't out-gameplan no gameplan!
