Bray Wyatt Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 http://buffalonews.com/2017/08/29/ducasse-miller-still-battling-bills-starting-right-guard-spot/ That is a really interesting quote, but even if they are keeping him around to teach technique etc, shouldn't they just keep him as a back up a la TJ Yates? They don't need him to start to do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 You want to cut Miller, who was one of the most improved OLmen in the NFL last year, to start a guy that has never started a game at guard in the NFL? I Hear That I still think Ducasse has naughty pics of Castillo. Something really bad, maybe involving a patio table and a goat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunken Pygmy Goat Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Competition is good and healthy, but I think Miller starts. If this staff wants to build this team up, they should keep players like him and Brown, who have played several games in their young careers and looked decent. Continuity on the offensive line is important, so Miller gets the nod IMO, and perhaps the part of the reason for Ducasse getting so much action is to help create some cohesion with his new linemates. Miller has missed a few games games, so giving extra reps to Vlad isn't a bad thing. I think they're treating this right. Well see how that unfolds.

Groy is the primary backup at C and G. Cutting Miller makes no sense for a team that's already depth challenged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpberr Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 It's hilarious that Ducasse remains on this team. He's that terrible. He's literally VX nerve gas - just a little exposure of Ducasse in the game gets everyone killed. The only reasonable rationale for John Miller not starting Week #1 is a coach being blinded by hubris and ego, an obvious workplace hazard in the NFL.

hemma Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I have a tough time figuring out who is even in on any given play, let alone trying to figure out who did what. I do know that Miller's name is easier to spell and does not sound French. That alone gives alone gives him a big edge in both football and beer.

Yeah but Vlad as a first name is much better than John, I mean has there ever been John the Impaler?? Also John can refer to a toilet so while Miller has the last name battle won, Vlad has the first name one won Now you see the conundrum the coaches are in Edited August 30, 2017 by Bray Wyatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiderweb Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 If Vlad starts over Miller it shows that the McBean experiment is headed for failure. Based on what has been seen to date, it's painfully obvious that Castillo needs to be sent packing along with Ducasse. Oline in general has taken a huge step backwards. Yet another here's my system....run it it and I don't care if it fits the players strengths or not. Sent from my LGLS992 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably be easier if one of their names was hyphenated. Beane would probably not only cut a hypher, I bet he'd ship him to France or maybe even Canada.

Miller beer sucks, IMO. Too many Miller's may have you kissing the John. We've all been there, and while it's not fun, we've all lived to see another day. (High Life is the champagne of beers, though). Kiss Vlad the Impaler and he'll probably kill you...advantage:Miller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
