JMM Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Anybody watch him in depth? I only admit I watched him a few plays in the first half in which he looked the same, no explosiveness, no bend, got washed out. Thinking they have to sit him for playoffs if that was all game. More reps to Espenesa and Jonathan please. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zow2 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I noticed him a couple times when he did the bull rush, instead of edge rushing. He got some push, but didn't come close to threatening Tua. I suppose at this point he's kind of a decoy and makes other teams account for him. But opponents certainly don't need to double Von anymore. Those days are over, at least for now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's a decoy but not drawing any extra attention from a team then he's simply not useful at this point. I had no issue with him getting a shot last night with us already in, but now we can't afford to mess with him anymore. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fasteddie Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I didn't realize he was playing until today. That sort of tells you the impact he had on the game. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetermansRedemption Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Done. At this point I wouldn’t be shocked if he was cut in training camp just to open up the roster spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could almost leave him unblocked. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frostbitmic Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I know I saw him out there on the field, but when I look at the stats his name doesn't appear. 👻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Hucklebuck Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Please coaching staff, watch this tape and play Kingsley Jonathan. On Tua's game sealing pick, Von did get good push against the RT, but that's about as much as I noticed him. Most of the time he was pushed past the QB. There was one rush where #73 for the Dolphins just shocked Miller with his hands and made him stagger backwards. WGR 550 in the pregame said that before the game he was on the field and you can see an obvious limp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he gets cut for that. Stuck with him for one more year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Stadium Original Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I don't this was a game where you could judge Miller due to the quick release and rhythm passing of Tua. In fact, if you look at the stats of the D line it's pretty unimpressive. Oliver, who had been on a terror the last few games only had one tackle, and collectively the group had zero sacks. This doesn't mean he would have been making plays on longer dropbacks, but given the nature of the game, I would give him a grade of incomplete. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichRiderBills Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I imagine he would and should be inactive again next week. Run first Steelers, will need more beef on the edge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheektowaga Chad Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Pretty sure I saw miamis tackle pass von off to a tight end or running back to handle so he could double one of the bills DT's That can't be a good sign 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
