U shouldnt blame Trentative. The Steelers play a 3-4, and you cant prepare for that.
-
It's going to be a very long season... The no-huddle looks like a piece of crap.
-
That was not open.

I get the sense that the Bill's confidence is very shaky going into this season, with they way last season ended, the new players starting on the OL and Trent still not showing great form in the pre-season. I doubt that they really believe that they can go into NE on a Monday night opener and win, but EVERYTHING depends on that game. If they find a way to win, confidence will be restored and I think they will win at least 10 games and go to the playoffs. If they lose, then it could get very bad, very quickly.

We shouldput Bell at LT in preperation for a post DJ world. THe new regime will have guidance whether or not he is the future LT.
LW is better suited at RT and anyway is stop-gap at LT, it does not make sense.
The Bills aren't going to win the SB with Walker at LT, so you might as well try Bell to see what he's got. To paraphrase Buddy Ryan: We don't know if the young guy can do it, but we know that the old guy can't.
RT is a little trickier. Walker is an average starting RT. Maybe that's the best we've got and maybe that would be good enough to win a championship if the other line positions are strong, but we're paying him a lot of money to be average and I think that Butler should be given a shot to see if he can develop into a stronger player. So, if it's close between Walker and Bell in terms of performance, I would simply bench Walker for now and see how it goes. If it looks promising, then Walker is probably gone by next year.

The early 90's Bills had Jeff Wright, Lodish and Pike. Who needs a DT when you have those guys?
Jeff Wright was a decent DT, who would of been very good in a 4-3 instead of playing nose tackle, IMO.
-
You only want to play someone at a given position if:
a) you can win a Superbowl with them there OR
b) you think that they can develop into someone who you can win a Superbowl with.
I don't think we're going to see much more development out of Langston Walker. He is an 8 year pro. He pretty much is what he is. So, can the Bill win a championship with him at LT? RT?
-
Why doesn't Langston get put back at RT where he played well and not on the bench?
Because he is not worth the $$ he is getting at RT. He is a pretty good pass blocker for a RT but a poor run blocker. I said this several times over the last few weeks: LW is either going to make it at LT or will be gone after this season.
-
We're going to hold them to 28??? Sweet!
That's at halftime...

A screen or draw works when the opposition fears your passing game. Nobody fears the Bills passing or offense at all. Why would a screen or draw work when you can't run basic plays?
Yes.
Sun Tzu said that to feign weakness, one must first be strong.
I've never felt that weak O-lines lines can cover this up by using screens and draws. Screens and draws work when the defense is over committing to the pass rush. This only happens if they don't think that they can get pressure on the QB with their standard pass rush (i.e. the O-Line is strong in pass protection). If the O-line is weak, there's no need to overcommit. The defense can play with good discipline and balance and cover their responsibilities more easily. If, on the other hand, the defense is obsessed with getting to the QB because they aren't getting any pressure, then discipline breaks down and screens and draws open up.
JMO.

If the Bills do land in the top 5. They will almost certainly pick up a DT who will anchor the line until 2020+. Love the dude from Nebraska and McCoy from Oklahoma
Exactly. Another draft like this years: OL & DL early and often. We could use OT, DT, DE.
Of course it will all be useless if Jauron is retained.
-
Jauron will take all the credit.
He would deserve it. He takes most of the blame.
It won't happen though. There's a reason that he only has one winning season in his career...
-
Dockery will start on the same line that will feature former Bills #1 pick Mike williams, who is moving up the depth chart
I don't have anything against him, but I haven't heard anything positive about Mike Williams in DC. I doubt he'll make the team.

Note: Don’t bring any Super Bowl XXV memorabilia. He won’t sign it.
Too bad. I'd love to get an SBXXV Norwood card where he signed it slightly off the card face to the right....
That might be worth some cash.
-
I really don't think that you can properly evaluate the level of talent on the Bills, including at QB, until Jauron is out of there. I really don't think that this game planning and game management gets the most out of the players we have.
-
I'd add CIN to the list. Palmer will be in his 7th year in 2010, and I can see them considering a QB in the 4th, possibly 3rd round of the draft.
I'll take him.

AFC East Coaches that have defeated Bill Belichick since 2000: Gregg Williams, Wade Phillips, Eric Mangini, Herm Edwards, Al Groh, Tony Sparano, Nick Saban, Dave Wannestadt, Jim Bates (interim).
AFC East Coaches that have not defeated Bill Belichick: Cam Cameron, Dick Jauron, Mike Mularkey.
Cameron coached Miami for one season. The other coached for you know who...
-
The assessment is dead on.
My favorite part: "The AFC East test of manhood is playing the Patriots. Jauron has lost all six of his games against New England while coaching the Bills, his team outscored by a humiliating average of 21 points per game in that span. Against the Patriots under Jauron, Buffalo usually rolls over by the second quarter. Jauron never seems upset, or even to care -- he just jogs off the field, then makes excuses."
You would've though that the Bills could've found a way to beat NE at least once at home during DJs tenure. Every other team in the AFC East has beaten them.
Sadly, I have also come to believe the people who doubt that RW will ever hire a big name coach. Given this, we just have to pray for a lucky hire like Levy or Saban.

The most innocent of comments gets savaged here...
You are a dumb ass.
-
The sad thing about the Jets is that they are getting their butts kicked, but still look better than the Bills.
That's ok though, it's just preseason. The Bills will turn it on when the season starts like they always do. Same with Jauron: he may look weak now, but when the season starts he will turn into a fearless coaching genius like he always does.
-
If Bills beat the Patriots in week 1, I will be a believer.
-
My guess is that very soon Demetrius Bell will be the starting LT.
Langston Walker will be moved back to RT.
Brad Butler will be moved back to RG.
And Eric Wood will be moved to LG or C.
With either Levitre or Hangartner headed to the bench.
Maybe next season, but this season the Bills will probably go with the lineup they're using now... at least until/if they're out of the playoff picture.
-
I don't think that Schouman will be cut. He is the starting TE after all. I do think that Stupar will make the team. I think that Fine will be the odd man out. JMO.
-
Jauron must go. If the Bills get a real coach, they will improve very quickly.

Why bother. It's pretty clear what they can do. Let's see the other guys...
