Kelly the Dog Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Cardale looked very good. Seymour played well. Aldolphus was very good on a bunch of plays, probably the best thing out of this game from a guy who is going to play a lot. Very impressive at times for how fast he moves and gets off blocks for a big guy. Goodwin was open deep three times. Annan looked good. Kujo was pretty good. JWill and Gillislee both ran hard. Gragg had his big plays and seemed to block pretty well. Powell looked decent. Bush had one nice return. Woods was solid. EJ was okay and had a couple very nice looks. Duke had a couple nice plays.

BuffaninATL Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 IK looked good until the injury. are you taking into account the 2 offside penalties on IK ? Cardale looked very good.

Gragg had his big plays and seemed to block pretty well. Powell looked decent. Bush had one nice return. Woods was solid. EJ was okay and had a couple very nice looks. Duke had a couple nice plays. methinks Powell was better than decent In all fairness to Wilder, even though he may have had a rough game, he certainly didn't get any help from the O-Line. Seems like just about every time he touched the ball, he was being hit in the backfield. That said, he can be better. He knows it. But i wasn't all his fault he couldn't get something going. ^^ this was exactly how I felt about Wilder - he got blown up behind the OL at least a few times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 are you taking into account the 2 offside penalties on IK ? methinks Powell was better than decent Yeah I liked him. One time he had a decent return but I thought he could have broke it if he waited for his blockers. He's supposedly had a very good camp. He will be battling Salas I think for the last WR position. It all depends IMO if they imagine Bush to be a KR as well as a PR. If they do, Powell will have a tough time making the roster unless he excels in the next three games. If they don't, he has a very good chance of making the 53. I don't think they are going to risk putting Goodwin back for KR. I do think they are going to end the Gay KO experiment because of the rule change so an extra WR who is a KR and backup PR like Powell may make it.

Kelly the Dog Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I thought I read Rex say Reggie was going to be the go-to PR, not KR guy, and will be used like a Ferrari in certain packagesI think fans, including myself, don't look at roster spots the way GM and coaches do. It all has to fit together. A lot has to do with injuries at one time. A lot has to do with game day actives versus total 53 (meaning sometimes a guy will make the final 53 even though he doesn't often dress for the game just because he can play a bunch of different spots.) injuries are going to have a major influence on our final 53. For example, if the Bills decide to keep a guy like Colt Anderson, who is an excellent ST player but probably a #5 S, they may not keep Easley because he is not healthy enough at the beginning of the season and therefore a guy like Powell has a 100% better chance of making the team. If IK is out for two games instead of four, maybe a guy at a different position unfortunately doesn't make the team. The 53 isn't really, always, the best 53. It's often who is available in case of an unknown injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannc Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) Cardale looked very good. He looks comfortable in the pocket and his throws were strong and accurate. Would love to see him throw to Glass and Sammy. Although his mobility was a strength at OSU, Cardale looks like he's lost some weight and seems quicker. Very impressive debut. Despite all the justifiable angst regarding the injuries to Shaq and RR, Cardale's development might end up being a much more important development for the franchise.

Despite all the justifiable angst regarding the injuries to Shaq and RR, Cardale's development might end up being a much more important development for the franchise. Most of his best passes were not necessarily textbook fundamentals. That isn't a huge criticism because an NFL player really has to just make plays when plays are needed to be made, which he did in spectacular fashion a few times. But he threw off his back foot a lot. His arm strength got him out of trouble more than a few times which can often backfire. That is not to say he wasn't totally impressive. He surely was. I loved a bunch of plays he made. But it was playmaking rather than fundamentally sound quarterbacking that was so impressive. Some guys just have it. Maybe we got lucky. It couldn't have been more impressive for the most part. But a lot of the stuff he did well is not necessarily stuff that is sustainable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webster Guy Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Adolphus looked awesome. He's got that Dareus-type lower body and the rook can shed blockers. Watched him every play, he's the real deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched him every play, he's the real deal. To me, him and Cardale were the best things to come out of this game and Cardale should have no affect on the team whatsoever this year. Aldolphus showed a lot of skills on a lot of plays. Very impressive. He could have a huge impact if teams are (rightfully) concerned with Dareus, Hughes, and Kyle rushing the passer. That was the easily the best part of this game for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Was interesting Tasker made a comment that Kujo is more comfortable at LT because he can push off his good right knee initially at the snap instead of his bad knee on the right side Good catch! i was at the game so I haven't seen the telecast but Tasker sometimes shares a little info that others just will not. That news about the knee is probably not something the team really doesn't want out...........it makes the personnel department look bad for taking him to play RT when he had a well known issue with that knee.

That may make the first real insight Tasker has ever made as an analyst. He's unbelievably bad and wrong sooooooo often. Probably the worst of all the national guys. And I loved him as a player, as a Bill, as an ambassador for the game, he has a decent voice and demeanor, he's just godawful as an analyst. Criminally bad.

Criminally bad. I think you........like most others.......just missed those insights. Understandable because he is tough to listen to. I was also really impressed by Adolphus debut. The healthy draft picks all looked good. Kind of stunned by Powell's improvement........he was garbage last year. Overall it was very much what I hoped to see from the preseason game.......some of the real defense in use.......and some big armed QB's challenging a bunch of athletic but unproven WR's and TE's. Hankerson scouting report remains same. Good: long arms Bad: hands too far from brain. Might as well let him go now and get someone else in camp. Was disappointed by what looked like Greg Little's lack of explosiveness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's incredibly bad and I want to like him so much. He's so wrong so many times so often that yes, perhaps an insight or two gets lost in the abyss. But he's embarrassingly bad.

Utah John Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 There was some talk on the radio after the game about switching the player of the game award from Gragg to C Jones. In my mind, the best Bill performance was by Colton Schmidt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
