I think he will be maximized from the NT position and kept happy by using DL stunts that keep him moving yet maintaining gap responsibilities for the rest o f the defense. If he was stunting away from the double team I imagine the DT on his back side would slide across the guards face and cause all sorts of havoc for the LB to clean up. Additionally, I would expect Dareus to beat the C, and potentially have TFL utilizing his athleticism. If he is stunting towards the double then we've seen him blow double teams up before. He doesn't get pushed off the ball, and he can sometimes win!!! These stunts should help lower the effectiveness of the double team. This is how I think Ryan will maximize Dareus, but I do expect a NT to be brought in after this year. Can the link for the Dareus interview, in which he said he didn't like his role in the scheme, be reposted?

I think he's saying that Rex didn't want to show anyone his blitzes so he didn't run many at all. The assumption being that in the regular season we will be blitzing more than then can block thus the QB will not have much time.

Ok, I give up -- EJ will be 3rd string or cut

Also surprised you gave up after a week. If hes running with the 3's all next week, I'll be jumping ship. -
What's your solution for QB in 2016?
YattaOkasan replied to White Linen's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I agree. How does this work? Every team that doesn't have a franchise QB should draft a QB per year? If we all agree there are >10 teams that need franchise quarterbacks and there are <10 QBs per draft then how does that work out? I think this would lead to QB HELL, and because the rest of your team sucks (related to spending so many draft picks on QBs) you don't have the talent for your QB to succeed. Thus, the QB you drafted will be evaluated as bad and you'll picking near the top again. Meanwhile the teams that do have franchise QBs will take advantage of the surplus of good players at positions that aren't QB. -

QB on roster currently plus a first round pick. -
Bills training camp practice 8/11
YattaOkasan replied to Canadian Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agreed. I think it will mostly be a counting game. Like 1, 2, ...,8 guys in the box "Let's throw to Sammy/Harvin/Woods", or 1, 2,...7 guys in the box "here you go McCoy." All of this is on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd and manageable downs. -
Bills training camp practice 8/11
YattaOkasan replied to Canadian Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
You were saying that reporters have 0 stake in who wins the battle unlike some on the board. It's not clear to me why that's true because if they make a pick wouldn't they be accountable for that. I guess you argument is they have 0 stake because they aren't making a pick. I now understand this assertion if that's what you're saying. -
sheesh. He won't be cut; all of his salary is guranteed. Why take the dead money hit? Traded maybe but I am also skeptical anyone would do that for anything better than a 7th round pick.

YattaOkasan replied to Canadian Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Why do reporters have less accountability than internet posters? I know there's not much punishment for making wrong picks but I have to imagine the person who's opinion is being paid for has more at stake than person who's opinion is not paid for. -

I think its a game planning thing. He's getting the start this week; he should get the reps. It gives him a chance to show his planning abilities. -

Sounds like EJ threw a near pick to Darby. I need to learn how to post tweets. -

If the box is stacked a screen to the outside should be effective considering our multiple TE sets (I'm assuming they could motion to the outside/slot) and Watkins blocking ability. -

I also am excited about all of the deception on both O and D. Heard a report the run game was going well again. But if its against the scout team then I'm not sure what to make of it. -

I'm reading a lot of screens during 11 on 11 first session. EJ also took a sack. -
Bills training camp practice 8/11
YattaOkasan replied to Canadian Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Maybe the reporters are trying to network during practice and that causes them to miss the nuances of each play. Either way I haven't seen their level of access result in much information. Remember when Kromer was going to be fired 2 different times. -
Matt Cassel to start Panthers Preseason game 1
YattaOkasan replied to Beef Jerky's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Agreed Agreed as well. We were 12th in Red Zone Attempts and 30th in TD%. If we could be average in TD % we would have 5 more TDs which is 20 more points. -

I would call Michael Vick "meh" (or something worse) if the Bills signed, but he has had a more successful career than anyone mentioned in your posts. My "meh" with respect to both Vick and Cassel is because both guys haven't been too exciting as of late (past 3 seasons). I do think EJ could have seasons like Cassel's best (little bit of a reach to say he will). I also don't think EJ's out of the league if he doesn't make it here. I think he would be picked up as a back up that would likely get several opportunities to start (be it for poor play or injuries). His physical attributes and calm demeanor will serve him well as he ages. What I mean is he will work very hard until he fixes the gaps in his game, and at that point I don't think his arm will have started to fade. I think these two features are why the EJ "defenders" do not think he should be written off. On the flip side, I get the win now mentality because teams like this don't seem to last (I'm hoping Whaley is draft genius). EJ has definitely been underwhelming at times in his career, but I think he will good QB (albeit in probably in 3-4 more years). -

I took your question to assume EJ would be starting no matter what. If you're asking me the odds he starts I say 40% and if he wins the competition, 90% he is better than Orton. -

10% hes in as long as either 5% hes as good as Cassel's best (by which I assume you mean make a pro bowl) 70% hes better than Orton last year One of these questions is more important than the other two. -
Bills Sign Nickell Robey to Contract Extension
YattaOkasan replied to 26CornerBlitz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If he has a breaks out this year, doesn't he become not cheap? As in some other team would offer him good money and we would have to match. As corners (including nickel corners) are hard to find I would expect him to get a decent offer, at least from Pettine and the Browns. -

Didn't you make this same post like 5 months ago, in a thread about Incognito nonetheless. Sheeesh stop being so reasonable. -
Who will start at QB - Training Camp Edition
YattaOkasan replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Considering how good he's looked the past couple of days, he'll be in the HOF if keeps up that rate of improvement. But really the guy is just inconsistent. -
Bills training camp practice 8/6
YattaOkasan replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That would be frustrating to me as the GM. I've built this team for a particular coach and his style. He is terminated for any number of different reasons (beach chairs come to mind). Now I'm going to do a 180 and try to salvage what I built. But maybe you're referring to other situations in which the coach did not scheme for his players at all, or the GM is terminated as well. -
Let's talk Colts opener matchups
YattaOkasan replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Interesting stuff. I wonder how they did outside their garbage division? I feel as if we would lead the league in all defensive statistical categories if we played in the AFC south.
