Cody Ford at LG; Quinton Spain benched

I don’t care where they lineup as long as they get the best five guys out there.  Speaking of which, any word on Dawkins?

Gotta love the idea of an eventual Dawkins-Ford-Morse-Feliciano-Williams lineup with Spain and Nsekhe as primary subs


I feel with that lineup, right guard is the weakest link and can be upgraded.

Well you won't have to wait too long as Feliciano is a FA so likely next year will be someone else.  Doubt they do anything this year.  If they are going to sign anyone, think defense has more needs right now than the line.

 

I do wonder though next week if Felicinao is not yet ready to come back will Ford go back to left side and Spain plays.  Coaches may feel the one game showed them enough to know whether this is a long term solution or not

Brian Winters was a lil sloppy at times. But other than that - the OL appears to be gelling well. Am happy with their play - especially the interior - Donald was a beast and, for the most part, they (and a scrambling Allen) kept him at bay.

Winters was awful...got tossed around all day

Seemed to have  a really bad TC too, not sure if it’s just being new to the scheme

Not enough talk about Darryl Williams though - he’s the best right tackle we’ve had here in quite awhile.  Need to keep him past this year.

Clutch signing in FA.

Yea he had one play today where Floyd got him on the edge but he has been very good through 3 weeks.

Winters should not be starting for this team. 

 

What's the status with Feliciano?

He stated he expected to be back for raiders game when he was first injured but most thought that was very aggressive timeline. At this point I would consider him week to week.

In the 4th Q, Josh was on his own.  Those guys were no help.

 

In the 4th quarter, it was a sprint to see who could hit Josh first. Not sure if it was scheme or protection (or Josh).  He still did his 4th quarter magic, amazingly. 

 

Someone more ambitious than myself might want to start a 4th Quarter Josh Comeback thread. I know he’s WAY up there in recent years.

He also had many plays under duress where he reverted back to hero ball instead of tossing it away he took sacks.  But, when gifted the redo on the PI, he delivered.
 

Teams don't wait till the 4th Q to unleash a "scheme" to sprint to the QB unabated.  The O-line was clearly out of shape--getting gassed in the 4th.

I love seeing how this team is so encouraging of each other. Watching Diggs go up to the guys right after each TD they get, the O-Line support, the Safeties always having each others’ backs. This team is special

 

Every team does that sort of thing

Cool story.  Did you read the one where he put them on his back today and won in spite of his entire team.  Josh doesnt play hero ball today the Bills are 2-1.

 

On Spain did the guy who told me all week that Spain was the most uderrated player on the team show up to this post yet?

I posted that in the 4th Q Josh was doing it on his own, Chief.

 

But cool story, though...

I will wait to hear from those who know far more about Offensive Line play than myself, but as of right now I was not impressed with Winters. I think having Ford and Williams on the right side with Spain on the left is a better option, but like I said it might have just been my impression that the Rams D-line kept blowing up the pocket. I will say that Motor seemed to have better lanes to run through.

It could be a situation where they want Feliciano back at RG when he’s ready, and they wanted to try out Ford at LG for that future combo. And maybe Spain can’t or doesn’t want to play RG. If so, can Feliciano not play LG? I think some of things would have been worked out in preseason in a normal year.
