He seems to also enjoy breaking down Bills film. I know he does it for every team, but just seems like he gets a little extra jazzed when he breaks us down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Another example of McD pushing the right buttons. Taking away the "starting" position and limiting snap counts through the middle of the season sent the right message and Ed has responded. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Oliver has really stepped his game up since the bye...cannot wait to see the progression with another offseason and training camp under his belt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dablitzkrieg Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 This guy has bought in. Kudos to the coaching staff not letting him flame out. Great to see. Next year he is going to explode after this off season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKC Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Something else Baldinger could have added is that after forcing the checkdown Oliver turns downfield to improve his angle and force a new perimeter for the receiver. He doesn’t lose his discpline and go straight to the ball but instead helps to secure a best case/more limited field for our D on the RAC. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 I loved the Ed pick and he has really come alive as of late. He had an OK start to the season. He was disruptive but not really making a huge impact, but he was a net positive. Then in the middle of the season it looked like while he was a positive as a pass rusher he was going to be a liability in the run game. But in recent weeks he has been very good both in the pass rush and run departments. I think he could easily be a pro-bowler in 2020. 39 minutes ago, cage said: Wasn't it just 3-4 weeks ago that he was a bust?? When the run defense was struggling I thought he was a bit of a liability as a run defender. I thought he should be flexed into passing downs and have his snap count decreased. But around the time they played the Broncos he has turned it on in the rush defense and continued to improve as a pass rusher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VW82 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 He’s been excellent the second half of the year. I’ll admit I thought we should have limited his reps going into the Dallas game given his struggles vs Wash and Philly lines. That might have been his best game, and he’s been all over the place ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

technobot Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Some guys just have *it* in big moments. Oliver had a great game against Dallas on (American) Thanksgiving in front of a national audience, and he does the same thing here on the first Sunday night game in 12 years. Tre White is another star who seems to have a cheat mode switch in hype games. It's way early and it might be variance but (hopefully) this bodes well for the future.

njbuff Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I hope the Jets NEVER live it down by taking Williams over Oliver when Oliver was clearly the more established player of the two.

Clearly, Oliver is in an ideal situation for just that, and Q. Williams is clearly... not. I will admit that I say this as someone with zero respect for Greggo, and a very large amount of respect for Frazier, and McD. But, I don’t think anyone should sleep on Q. Williams, or consider him a bust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FeelingOnYouboty Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I remember arguing with people on this board about Ed Oliver and effort. Actual people were questioning if this is a guy who gives his all. All you had to do was watch any of his games at Houston and he was always playing to the whistle but because he had Coatgate people were writing him off.

John from Riverside Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 What I would like to see Ed work on going into next year is his technique at knocking a ball out from behind One thing Ed is always going to have is that freak speed and quickness of his..he runs things down from behind....learn to pop that ball out the way TJ Watt does...... But yes....he has been fun to watch in his first year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And thats the difference from Mittelstadt going to the Amerks which shouldve happened last year. Ed has got the mindset of embracing the mindset and its awesome to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
