Impressions from game

It's obvious they want Torrence to be starter and Bates backup center. He held his own. Kincaid was in first 2 series, maybe they wanted to keep him under wraps a bit because he was invisible. 

 

Backup O line a disaster. Pray no injuries.  Middle D bad against run. I'd like to see Daquan and Poona in there early downs. Let Oliver be pass downs or move him around, he gets plowed.

 

Allen has good arm but I see what they have been saying during camp. Bad decisions , looks jumpy. Frankly if Josh out a game I'd rather see Barkley, he was terrific today.

 

Isabella flashed! Reminds me of young Beasley.  Keep him. Shavers flashed, love his length. Harty is TINY! Yikes, but I can see how he could be explosive in open field.

All in all a decent performance.  Next week we get to see the closest to what the week 1 Bills will look like.

Posted this in the game day thread as well, but Cook already has me excited for this season.

 

His vision to bounce runs outside is something we have missed for many years when Singletary was the running back.

 

I have no doubt that Singletary plows into the line rather than bouncing it outside for the TD on this play:

 

 

Here is what Singletary frustratingly has done all too often:

That Singletary play was one he did in fact cut back to the right… but got caught at the edge. 

I think Cook is the better prospect but Devin wasn’t god awful here. All RBs can miss a channel for free yards here or there.

I’ll borrow from Sal:

 

Arrow up:

 

Torrence

Isabella 

Mims 

Dane Jackson 

Basham

Dorian Williams - you can see the talent 

Broeker - backup IOL right now 

 

 

Arrow down:

 

Kyle Allen 

Shakir - just can’t drop any easy ones the bar is too high in that WR room 

Shorter - not noticeable and was outplayed by Johnson and Ateman

Spector - just meh

 This is a really really good football team that is going to be absolute hell to play against. 

  That Dline against a mediocre at best Jets oline is going to have Aaron getting happy feet by the 3rd quarter.


 The WR and RB rooms clearly have the most talent since Josh has been here. They can even run the ball from traditional formations. 
 

  They have some very tough decisions to make the toughest being how to break the news to Josh that Kyle should be in the CFL.
