Meanwhile, as Spiller's playing time has declined, has snuck onto the field for over 60 percent of snaps. That's up three percent from his final 2013 figure, and it's going to end up placing him in the Top 15 in the NFL for his position to this point in the season. Not bad for a 33-year-old veteran.

, playing in the slot ahead of the inactive , saw a season-high 30 snaps in Week 6 - a figure he actually best twice in the 2013 season, if you'll believe it. Meanwhile, fellow sub-package receiver saw just 14 snaps, providing further evidence that the second-year receiver out of Texas is, by and large, merely a situational player as the Bills' offense is currently structured.

If you were curious about how often the Bills used multiple-tight end sets with Williams sidelined against New England, these numbers tell part of the story: played 76.8 percent of snaps, was at 31.9 percent, and came in at 27.5 percent. Those numbers are significantly higher than the tight end group typically receives in a contest, but they're probably not as high as some expected considering it was used as an excuse for making Williams inactive.

Through six games this season, the Jim Schwartz defense, on any given snap, has fielded an average of 2.31 linebackers. A year ago, under Mike Pettine (and over the course of a full season), that figure came in at 1.53 - and it does not include data for , an end now, and largely an edge-setter for Pettine. Those numbers delineate a clear difference in philosophy on passing downs, with Schwartz sticking mostly to nickel looks and Pettine preferring dime. Add that to the season-ending injury to , and it should not be especially surprising that the Bills have the 26th-ranked pass defense this season, down from a No. 4 overall finish last year - even though they still rank second in the league in sacks.

That linebacker philosophy came through against New England, though in fairness, it may also have been an issue of necessity, with needing to fill in for at safety. Still, the Bills wound up having four linebackers (, , , and ) play at least 43.7 percent of snaps against New England, with those first three each seeing more than 50 percent of plays. New England figured out how to manipulate them, which we'll discuss a bit later on today.

In the last two weeks, has played 127 snaps compared to just 36 for Da'Norris Searcy. (It's worth pointing out here that Searcy has been a bit banged up of late.) Williams had a rough go of it against New England, but it's looking like he may be the de facto starter over Searcy even when Aaron Williams returns to the field, with Searcy returning to his now-less-used hybrid linebacker/safety role that he excelled in a year ago.

The top six rep-takers on special teams in Week 6: Brown (23), Anthony Dixon (21), (21), (20), Chris Hogan (18), and Corey Graham (18). Dixon, , Brooks, Hogan, and Dean are the core specialists at the moment, consistently winding up at the top of the rep counts on a week to week basis; Dean is the player that has seen the most work in the continued absence of .

-AMES During a public forum Monday at Iowa State University that invited the community to weigh in and ask questions about proposed efficiencies to Iowa s public universities, staff and faculty expressed concern about changes to procedures that they say have been vetted, tested and worked well for years.

-One employee, for example, raised concerns about a proposal to create a print green strategy that would reduce local printer use and paper consumption by eliminating some of the 4,900 local printers identified across the three campuses.
-He asked whether Deloitte Consulting LLC the firm the Board of Regents is paying $3.3 million for its systemwide efficiency review considered faculty and staff time when developing the proposal.

- If we have to walk 10 minutes to go get the printing, that seems very inefficient, the faculty member said.
-Shomic Saha, senior manager for Deloitte, said the team isn t suggesting the universities do away with all local printers. But, he said, some users could become comfortable walking a few extra paces to save money and paper.

Those numbers are significantly higher than the tight end group typically receives in a contest, but they're probably not as high as some expected considering it was used as an excuse for making Williams inactive.
-And Rick Ferraro, a director for Deloitte who is heading the Board of Regent review, said his team has not yet taken a comprehensive inventory of all printer use. He said that must come during implementation, if the board agrees to move forward with the suggestion. That is the time to go get information on who would be absolutely disrupted, Ferraro said.
-Another employee mentioned a campuswide information technology evaluation conducted at Iowa State last year that found faculty members believe localized services enable them to better meet the educational mission of the institution rather than centralized services, as proposed by Deloitte in some areas.

- Did you take that into account? the employee asked. Do you have that report?
-And still another employee told the Deloitte team during the forum that many ISU departments have invested time and money in training staff based on specific needs, and he has concerns about consolidating and centralizing services.

New England figured out how to manipulate them, which we'll discuss a bit later on today.
- There is no intent to centralize every service on campus there just is not, Ferraro said. We will keep critical components at the local level. We have to draw a balance between the two. But it s not easy, and it does require us to work together.
-Deloitte has been working since March to evaluate the efficiency of operations at ISU, University of Iowa, and University of Northern Iowa. The firm first highlighted areas of possible savings and then pointed toward 17 specific opportunities that it projected could save the universities $30 million to $80 million a year.
+In the last two weeks,  has played 127 snaps compared to just 36 for Da'Norris Searcy. (It's worth pointing out here that Searcy has been a bit banged up of late.)

-The Board of Regents already has agreed to move forward with four of those opportunities, and it will decide in November whether to move ahead with another eight administrative opportunities. The final five academic-related opportunities have been put on hold until a later date.
-Deloitte has said the eight efficiencies currently under consideration could save the universities tens of millions of dollars and eliminate the need for as many as 250 positions.

-Only one person at Monday s forum directly addressed the issue of job cuts specifically asking how proposed staff reductions would work at a time when the university is growing. Iowa State has set enrollment records for six straight years, and it now boasts a total enrollment of 34,732, making it the largest public university in Iowa.
-Virginia Fraser, senior manager for Deloitte, said staff reductions at all three universities are estimates based on current student populations.
-  Iowa State is a university that s growing, and you expect enrollment to increase, Fraser said. An analysis of how this all could unfold would have to be re-baselined as enrollment changes and the needs of campus change.<p>Related Articles:</p><ul><li><a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com>Louis Vuitton Palermo</a></li><li><a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com>Louis Vuitton Pallas</a></li><li><a href=http://www.louisvuitton-pascher.com>Louis Vuitton Rendez-Vous</a></li></ul>
