Beerball Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 I agree with #3, let the guy play the line ONLY The leaders in pass blocking efficiency as a team this year so far are the Bills with a mark of 95.3. Their offensive line has just allowed 12 total QB Disruptions on 197 plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Jose Bills Fan Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 The leaders in pass blocking efficiency as a team this year so far are the Bills with a mark of 95.3. Their offensive line has just allowed 12 total QB Disruptions on 197 plays. The very next item underneath this one talks about Marco Columbo: "Miami Dolphins: The right tackle that has allowed the most pressure so far this year is Marc Colombo with 18 combined pressures allowed."

Thoner7 Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 2. Fred Jackson is the best HB of 2011 . It’s time to say it, Fred Jackson (+3.9) is the standard so far in 2011. He is running with power, speed, vision and moves and so far has not been contained by any of the Bills’ opponents. Buffalo has been getting much improved play from their O-line this season too, so the chances that Jackson is slowed down because of those blocking in front of him is pretty slim compared to years before. He still tops the Elusive Rating for the season with a score that remains ridiculous compared with the previous three years of data (119.5) and if anything, was even better in this game despite arguably his toughest test of the season. . 3. Don’t drop Chris Kelsay into coverage. Ever. . The Bills seem to have this utility player approach to Chris Kelsay. He’s linebacker, he’s defensive end, he’s covering a zone 15-yards down field. Wait, what? Unlike most teams with one of these hybrid linebacker/defensive end types, the Bills seem intent on dropping Kelsay as if he was a 230-pound 4-3 linebacker, and they’ve found disastrous consequences. Kelsay (-3.1) is clearly not only uncomfortable, but often completely lost in his zone. Teammates believe that zone is accounted for so they don’t cheat over to help – which they’d need to do if they were watching receivers wander into it completely uncovered. The Bills are giving up too many big plays directly as a result of this at the moment. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although that week both of them received a positive grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
