Einstein Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) Some interesting charts and metrics I found while perusing the interconnected network of web servers world wide. Gabe Davis chart for Week 5 could be summed as "Go Long - Score Touchdowns" While Stefon Diggs chart could be summed up as "Go everywhere - Do every thing". Moving over to PFF, Dawkins is leading the way in pass blocking, though all of our linemen have respectable pass blocking grades! From what I can tell, a 60 to 65 grade is about average (someone please correct me if i'm wrong). Things get a bit dicey in run blocking, though Knox shows his worth in the run game. You have to scroll down a bit further to get to the majority of the starting linemen, as their run grades are poor. Spencer Brown is the highest graded Bills linemen run blocker. When you look at all run-blockers in the NFL, he is the 196th. Lastly, here are the coverage grades for our top-20 defenders. Go Bills!

RiotAct Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 I would think most right-handed QBs naturally favor the left side, no? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMDman Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 interesting, I remember the old narrative was other teams wanted him to throw left because it was something he struggled with 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) Does it show how many throws are in each category? That would be interesting to see. Edited October 13, 2022 by MJS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wiz Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) 3 minutes ago, RiotAct said: I would think most right-handed QBs naturally favor the left side, no? you would think so, easier to rotate your hips naturally that way vs opening (adjusting his feet and rotating), then closing them when throwing to the right. Similar to how he's thrown a few bad passes to the right side to McKenzie vs Dolphins, Diggs vs Steelers and I think another time also.

eball Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Good stuff. Another example of Josh identifying a weakness (throwing left) and turning it into a strength. The kid really is unbelievable. The talent, work ethic, intelligence, charisma. Damn. We are so friggin’ lucky I often have to pinch myself. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be interested to know that too… I thought that’s what the title referred to originally but mow I see it’s talking about passer rating.

gobills404 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Doesn’t have to be in first round, but I’m BEGGING Beane to draft multiple iOL next year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) Didn’t Saffold have a reputation for being a much better run blocker than pass blocker? What’s the issue here? We need 2 new OGs badly. Unless the plan is to move Bates back to LG next year once Saffold is gone.

Process Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Saffold my god what a bust that signing was. We were better off keeping Williams at RG and Bates at LG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StHustle Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Siran Neal is the ultimate mainly special teams but great depth player. Ingram only got in over him cause they wanted to keep Siran fresh for teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Defenses are making a concerted effort to keep him from getting outside the pocket to his right, where he's absolutely deadly. During games, watch how LDE's are playing a contain game and not getting too far upfield. Allen has handled their adjustment like a pro. 7 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal can match up to Chase physically since he will round his cuts and doesn't separate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the adjustment to the soft rushes from DL's, who are getting the arms up and batting passes down, is to just throw it really really far instead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
