John from Riverside Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Keep in mind RI didnt even play John Miller was such a good pick.......mobile....nasty.....strong.....you combine that with Greg Roman's influence on run block schemes and the both run blocking and pass protection looked fantastic with the first unit. It is interesting that everybody bags on our qbs.......but the OL played well.......and the qbs looked pretty decent hmmmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGOATski Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Yep. It was very encouraging. Miller looked like a veteran out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffismagic Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Real offensive line coach, real offensive coordinator. Switching to a scheme based on using their superior size. Another year for Cyril Richardson, he looked way better than last year where he couldn't stop pass-rush. Kromer, as long as he doesn't beat people up, is a keeper. Really excited for Miller. No one talked about this guy pre-draft but he looks like a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsfaninMyrtleBeach Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Watching Miller closely. That big man has some speed. He is the road grader we need to spring Shady to the outside. He played an excellent game looking like he's been playing NFL ball for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor Jags It's been reported Moron himself personally got involved and coached the OL unit every day in practice last year - it was his baby. So glad he "opted" out!

Fixxxer Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I was disappointed with Richardson the few times I noticed him, he pulled on one play and should have destroyed the LB/S, instead he was stopped in his tracks and so was the run play. With hi size, he should have buried the LB. He needs to believe he will destroy the other guy. Miller was fast when he pulled and was key for a particular run play go for a couple extra yards. Very solid in pass pro, although the Panthers were missing Star Lotulelei. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 There were a couple of runs off the right side last night that were cavernous. Even I could have gained yards on those, and I'm walking at the moment with the help of a cane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 (edited) I have already bought my tickets to John Miller's HOF enshrinement. you said tickets? I assume you are inviting me. Because its early to call. But i sure like this kid since the Bills grabbed him. i was worried not putting Miller betwixt Wood and Glenn for the Vet advantage ( communication and consistency ) But if Bills get RT sorted and the O line becomes a tight band of brothers... from nearly worst to ? .... most improved ? shoot i had too much koolaid last night and am still a bit giddy Kromer should sue. or make good on the threat Edited August 15, 2015 by 3rdand12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Kromer's influence was noticeable. I had to wait for the replay this morning, and watching again now. Miller looked impressive. You just don't expect that in his first preseason game, and even Urbick looked better. Don't tell me coaching doesn't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffaloed in Pa Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I loved our Guard and Tackle play but had a heart attack with Urpik snapping to EJ. That was bad. Poor E.J. He could easily had a great game ,with the drops also. He moved good and threw good passes. After this game the QB spot is looking a lot brighter. Can any te catch a pass except Clay ?

Kelly the Dog Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I loved our Guard and Tackle play but had a heart attack with Urpik snapping to EJ.

No one talked about this guy pre-draft but he looks like a player. Shows how freaking horrible Maroon was at coaching, how can a former OLman be so bad at coaching them? We had a great line und Chan then within two years those same guys were horrible. Hopefully Wood can back to being good (Urbick too, not that he will start).

thebandit27 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Urbik was the weak link...and that was a very good thing! I am not at all surprised to see Miller play well; I always thought of him as an immediate starter, though I think his ceiling is probably higher than I originally gave him credit for--I thought he'd be a "never make the pro bowl" type. I may have to reconsider that if he continues to improve from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have to reconsider that if he continues to improve from here. I don't want to anoint him anything yet since he has yet to play an NFL regular season game. But with that said, this is a rookie, who is known for being mean and a mauler, who looked good at both run blocking and pass blocking, and can pull/move/block downfield, and is also known for being a great student of the game/football smart who was teaching the offense to the veterans in OTAs, and he is really strong and works hard. What a combination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlayoffsPlease Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Hard to tell from preseason. Henderson looked like a hall of famer in pre-season last year. He did start for the Bills, but ended up grading out near the bottom of the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
