  1. Does anybody run this anymore? I thought that everybody was using zone blocking these days.
  2. And Arizona's O-Line was also poor. The QB has a lot to do with how your line looks. For those that remember, think of how many sacks Johnson took behind the same line that Flutie played behind. Flutie made quick decisions, threw the ball in rhythm and always had the run threat so he was rarely sacked and always looked like he had time. Marino is another good example. He moved well in the pocket, made quick decisions and had a lightning fast release. His line was so-so and they never had a running game when he was there. TE needs to learn how to make quick decisions and move better inside the pocket better. If he does these things, the line will look a whole lot better.
  3. I think that he needs a coaching mentor. I don't think that he'll succeed without one. Holmgren would be great, but again RW will not bring in someone like him. I think that the Bills best chance is to bring in a young OC or an offensive minded college head coach as the new head coach.
  4. My thinking exactly. The first team with an injury at RB will sign Rhodes.
  5. Maybe this means that Maybin will be seeing some time at LB.
  6. It's not going to happen. RW is just not going to bring in a ego like either of these two guys after the problems he had with Donahoe.
  7. I thought Corner has been playing the nickel with the first team in preseason. Why do you see him as a dime? Who is the nickel?
  8. Stupar, Schouman and Fine are all mediocre TEs. None of them are championship caliber starters. What's the big deal who we keep, really? I think that it must have been very close between Denney and Copeland, but again, neither one are championship caliber players so they are both stopgaps, IMO. The one that surprised me was Scott instead of Chambers. Chambers was a decent backup, not great, but I just never heard anything about Scott in the preseason that lead me to believe he might make the squad.
  9. I can't believe that no one has referenced Hitler's rant from the movie Downfall yet.
  10. It's interesting to hear this. With Schonert's offense struggling, I was reminded of how Sam Wyche's (his former coach and no-huddle author) offense struggled during his final years as Tampa's coach. A major criticism then was that the offense was too complicated and that things needed to be simplified. Turk's offense looks more similar to the Sam Wyche version that Jim Kelly's in execution and intent. It's also funny to hear this when there has been so much criticism of Jauron's previous offensive coordinators, especially Steve Fairchild, that his offense's were TOO simple and vanilla.
  11. Only if Lindel makes them.
  12. Practice is overrated. The critical thing is determining who our 3th string DBs and DLs are going to be.
  13. Yeah, too bad they only make plays against the opponents 2nd and 3rd stringers...
  14. Well, next week the "it's just preseason" excuse will be gone. I'm sue that the Bills apologists will come up with some new ones though.
  15. If my aunt had b#*ls, would she be my uncle?
  16. Well, this team DEFINITELY looks ready to make a playoff run.
  17. The drop off from Van Miller to Murphy is precipitous.
  18. Hitting on all cylinders.
  19. Stupar-man. Where are his supporters now?
  20. Better than the guy who had a web-cam pointed at his 1980 TV set showing the Packers game?
  21. Interesting. Now this makes sense.
  22. Why don't the ticket holders in danger of default just re-sell their tickets to one of the 10,000 to 20,000 people still on the waiting list? I'm sure that they could recoup most if not all of their money and still hold onto the ticket rights for when times turn around economically. They could probably use the $$$ right now anyway. Just put an ad in the paper. I'm sure that there will be lots of offers.
  23. There are not enough experienced linemen on the roster to do it this season, but I agree with you about this. He will be gone by opening game next season unless he plays well at LT.
  24. It looks like Marshall has been watching guys like Cutler and Peters. If you are loud, whiny, childish and self centered enough you will eventually be traded to a contender and get a new big $ contract. Apparently, the Jets have been watching too.
  25. I was actually thinking of Nelson as a wide out in goal line situations, not as a traditional TE. I would probably use Stupar as the blocking TE in a 3 wide alignment. He probably needs to alternate with Schouman for the first few games until he establishes that he is better against starting caliber opponents.
