Ed Oliver is playing out of his mind this season
Matt_In_NH replied to Roundybout's topic in The Stadium Wall
I did not like his contract but so far he has played up to it -
I think this is overblown. Most of the complaints are shotgun run at the half yard line which they have done and failed twice. I stand by my opinion that is a bad call in that situation It because they can’t get the half yard but because if it is blown up you stand to lose much more.

In your opinion he was the greatest. -

He was the most exciting guy but his play to play variance was so high, his style did not lend itself to overall team success. -
In some scenarios it could at the goal line....but you are right forward progress is subjectively called.

Because they use it to almost perfection. The Bills have incidents like fumbling the ball on a QB sneak to lose a game. The Eagles use it to win games all the time.

I am actually an official apologist of sorts....I do acknowledge they get a lot wrong but I think their job is so much harder than people realize and they actually get a ton of things right...people only talk about things that are subjective or blatent missed calls. When you can do super slow motion and see hey that guys hand hit the guy a frame earlier than the ball arrived it will always be easy to criticize. The amount of rules and the details of the rules is a huge amount of information that needs to be processed all the time. Take a minute to realize the improvements they have done. A number of years ago, all you would hear abotu on Mondays is catches that were rule incomplete cause some miniscule ball movement, they NFL did a great job of fixing the interpretation of what is and is not a catch and there will always be some that are close there are less controversial catch/no catches today. The quick booth reviews that happen that fix ball placement, determine a called TD is not a TD or a guy ruled out is changed to a TD without coach or field officials doing anything is another improvement. If anyone thinks it "is only getting worse" I challenge you to go to youtube and watch a game from the 90's when obvious INT's or fumbles or TD's are wrong and it is clear as day by replay but there was not replay to fix it. All of those they get right now. 1. Having the officials be full time will not make better officials, only technology and reviews can make it better. 2. Subjectivity is hard to remove (PI, roughing the passer etc) but any time you can remove subjectivity it should be done and generally the NFL has tried to do that but you can't get rid of all of it. 3. Make embellishing a foul, Josh Allen is one of many who should be flagged for this. The over protection of QB's and receivers has resulted in guys overreacting to minor hits trying to get the call. 4. Humans can really only look/focus at one thing, when you watch a replay 16 times you can look at many things but in real time you can only see one thing so it is unrealistic to expect these guys to be perfect. Instead they should continue to use reviews to fix mistakes. 5. They should continue to try to find ways to use reviews and other possible uses of technology like chips in balls etc. Thanks for reading if you got this far. I know most wont agree with this but its my 2 cents...

The Bills have used Davis to do this....but never with the approach that the Eagles do, I don't see any other teams just all out push the guy like they do and I find that surprising.

Copy catters!!!!!!!!!!!

Exaxtly! I would like to see someone attack it differently.

prepare to eat these words
-
It’s not exciting to watch a qb sneak td either. I don’t see a carve out at the goal line.
-
Did you notice that is the point of the thread?
-
I did. Not see the other thread. If kids want to merge that is fine. The only way they ban it IMO is player safety. Is there any data/evidence this play is more unsafe than other plays?
-
I would like to know this too I think you have to be real thoughtful about how much you play Von. At some point he may be best off inactive. He is no where near where he was.
-
Watching the chiefs game. I really think the eagles are successful because all guys on offense are working together to push Hurts into the endZone while the defense has a bunch of individuals trying to make a play. It seems like the defense should match power with power and defenders should push the DTs. No idea if it would work but why not try something different since literally nothing works to defend it.

McDermott has never had a guy with 10 sacks with the Bills. Floyd is sitting at 9.5......
-
He was taking for very deep and very wide paths, I think he need to attend his pass rush summit to learn how its done.
-
Just throw to the open guy.
