I think this is a reasonable ranking.. for pass protection anyway. Glenn and Incogntio have been playing at a relatively high level... Incognito especially. Wood has had a few subpar games.. however.. on the whole he has been much improved over last year. He played especially well in the Miami game. Miller/Urbik have generally been below average. Henderson started strong but decline each game leading up to his god awful performance in Tennessee where he got hurt. Kouandjio has been passable as his replacement.
In general .. the O Line has done it's job in every game this year and it's hard to blame poor QB performance on the line so far this year.. as opposed to last year when poor O Line play legitimately affected the majority of the games.
My biggest problem with the whole thing is it doesnt feel (in the game planning) like Roman has confidence in this offensive line to just line up and blast a 3rd and 3 for a first down......
In my opinion.....this is a running down with an occassional pass to keep a defense off balance....not automatically lining up in a formation that screams "PASS" to the defense
- We have the best FB in the league (for that matter...why are we not just lineing up in Power I and giving it to the upback?)
- If our OL is truly grading out that well then surely we can get a short yardage first down
To me along with the QB play this is the single biggest reason we have lost games.....you HAVE to keep an opposing teams offense off the field especially if they are good.......

I thought Rex in london said, or was it Whaley he was out for " personal reasons" But yes now it's a knee injury? Formerly known as a hip injury. IMO he wants to get IR'd to collect the rest of this years stack.
great signing.
You could be right....or he could legit be hurt
-
oh.
Omar Kelly is a complete homer and hack
LOVED when Clay signed and he had crow feathers hanging out his mouth
-
Interesting. CK looks like he is in a different snap count and clearly has lapses where he doesn't know his assignment. He looks blindsided on half the plays. That was the case in London. Just looked clueless most of the time when he wasn't getting flagged for false starts.
Shall we go over it? I have the NFL game package to go back and scrutinize it further.

I don't think you can realistically expect to have all 5 starters all the time though. The good teams are the ones who can coach guys up so there isn't so big a dropoff. The odds of any 5 given starters being available all season long are not strong. What's more important, building cohesion or gaining the ability to be functional without it? Every team is playing musical chairs with their starting lineup all season long. Further, you aren't even given the practice time before the season to establish that synergy- where you used to have two-a-days you now have unpadded practices.
I also see a lot of folks saying 'now we FINALLY have our QB, two RBs, OL and top WR all healthy together.' As if now we'll see the "real" Bills offense. Well that's great (truly) but how long do you expect this perfection to last, one game? Two if you're lucky? The coaches must be able to gameplan with the pieces they have on a given day and find a way to get production.
The problem is a NFL team can take a certain amount of hits to the starting line up and still function
When a team turns into a mash unit.....you get a game like the jags

Just remember Miami
"Red means stop"

I would think winning would be more important than getting a players reps...that's what preseason is for.
Maybe they view Henderson and Kujo as equal in talent.....
I personally would rather see Kujo at RT
I'm not sure what you're seeing CK is a turnstile and false start machine.
Henderson has a few lapses each game but if you look at each play like an at Bat in baseball.
Henderson is batting .700 and CK is maybe 400. CK just consistently plays poor.
Im sorry....no...just no
Kujo had some hickups when he was pressed into relief duty....but the last couple of weeks has been pretty solid
Henderson
- Gets beat OFTEN......which is troubling for a guy of his athletisism
- Gets hurt EVERY GAME
- Does not committ to punishing people in the run game.....he "gets in the way"
-
One thing of note
Kromer has now had some time with these guys after coming back from the suspension......they took the bye week off but this will make a couple of weeks counting this week.
Even though he has had his personal problems a highly regarded offensive line coach.......lets see how this plays out.
P.S. Please sign Cog to a extension ASAP
-
Another run? When was the first one?
Im sorry Scott...are the bills winless?
If someone listened to you talk....and didnt know the bills record....you would have thought they have lost every game
-
Health had nothing to do with our defense getting blasted at home against the bengals.
I'd say we are 3-4 because of bad coaching not due to injury.
Scott,
Everyone knows you are a glass is half empty kinda guy.....but try to dig a little deeper?
This just in.....the Bengals have a GOOD OFFENSE
When you starting with great field position for half the game.......your gonna eventually give up points.
When your offense is so banged up they cant convert 3rd downs and stay on the field....your gonna give up points

The US needs Russia to join them in pounding ISIS
Hard

Jenny pissed me off through that entire movie

I am wondering if they are working to get Henderson as many reps as possible and slide him to LT next season
-
I have always considered Wade Phillips to be one of the best D coordinators ever......ever
-
THis team has not been healthy all season
Its just to early to tell
-
Kudos for this.
Miller has the look of a solid-but-unspectacular guard to me. I think he’ll be a starter in the NFL, and maybe even as a rookie. I don’t ever see him making an all-pro team, but rather being a 4th-round type guy that comes in and contributes immediately.
I actually think John Miller has a chance to be something depending on how hard he works
but great call on being the immediate starter
-
I still think the right move is get a developmental QB after the 1st round
This team has needs

I was listening to Jason Taylor on Sirius NFL Radio today and a Bills fan called in and asked about Rex and his D.
Taylor said that of all the coaches he ever had, it took him the longest period of time, most work, and most study to figure out what he was supposed to do in Rex's D. It was an enormous adjustment and it is extremely complicated. Eventually he got it but it took some time.
This meshes with things other guys have said about Rex's defense: it's complicated, relies on a ton of new terms and communication, as well as a bunch of unique concepts. At first it's very difficult to grasp. But eventually once the players get it things start clicking.
I think this is what we are seeing with this D. Rex did not forget how to coach defense. The DL did not forget how to pass rush. It's just going to take some time for this thing to start humming.
BTW, that vaunted Schwartz defense got shredded by Brady and couldn't stop the Raiders when it mattered too. Let's not pretend that last year's defense was some sort of iron curtain.
I still believe in Rex and I EXPECT to see the defense improve tremendously over the 2nd half of the season.
This is pretty much how I feel about it as well
My only fear is that it took too long for this year and we end up coming like 1 game short
-
they just suk
so two dummies who are not aware of college football, I see, well you fit right in
so you prefer going 8-8 and never getting a real QB? TT is not the answer
Stats say different.....but we actually dont know yet.
But.....just like you are every year......next years hot draft QB is the right QB...till they arent
-
I would personally rather see him in no brace......I know they make these super thin nowadays but Tyrod is gonna mentally know its there
-
First advice. Long story, but I am thinking of buying one of those Keurig type coffee machines. i like my coffee hot and about a 16oz cup. Any recommendations?
Next prayers. Daughter gets her license at 12:01 AM tomorrow morning. Talk about worry! It's my first one to get license, and I am a mess!
Been there.....done that.....make sure your insurance covers what it needs to and make sure you buy her the equipment for hands free for her phone.
-
The Bills are dammed lucky that Tyrod's knee injury wasn't as bad as Bell's.
Thats why they didnt play him....they let him get healthy instead of RG III ing him

10 pages of junk

My memory on this is not that good I will admit
but didnt the management interview a LOT of HC candidates? And then brought Rex in for a 2nd interview?
Kouandjio benched for Henderson.. mistake?

I honestly dont understand the love affair with Henderson
- He seems to play well when he is motivated
- That play is not consistant which screams lazy
- Too much looks like Tarzan plays like Jane with him
Say what you want about the horrible first year for Kujo......the guy lines up and gives it everything he has on most downs to me when I watch his film
Yet for reason the bills coaches love Henderson and keep marching him out there
I say make him earn it
