Tee Higgins future bills receiver
Rocky Landing replied to 78thealltimegreat's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He could arm wrestle Sills V for a roster spot. -
If the Bills don't lose this game, Daboll should be fired!

Zay Jones blocking ability - I’m impressed
Rocky Landing replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I believe Zay’s route running is one of his strengths. -
Henry Anderson cheap shot. UNREAL
Rocky Landing replied to *******'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Seems a little inconsistent, Roger. I wouldn't argue for a suspension, but not fining him has the odor of bias. It's hard to argue that the tape doesn't show an intentionally illegal hit. Other players have been fined for less. Pretty disappointing. -

Rocky Landing replied to *******'s topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yep. It’s out there. The refs missed it (because Hank was crawling out of view of the ref), but the NFL should fine him. And the media should press Cheapo Greggo on the topic. -
Such a Billsy concept.

Should Shaq be starting instead of Trent Murphy?
Rocky Landing replied to GreggTX's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The bottom line for both these players, IMO, is that they are both playing much better this year than last. Murphy, as advertised, is healthy, and it shows. Shaq has steadily gotten better every season. What a great problem to have. But, I suspect that at least one of these guys will not be a Bill next season, and if he keeps playing the way he is, it will probably be Shaq. I wish we had picked up his fifth year option. -
Diabolical Daboll - Is he our evil genius?
Rocky Landing replied to PlayoffsPlease's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I was actually rather appalled at the offensive play calling in the first half. I was thinking at the time that it looked like a preseason game where they were evaluating the passing game, and not doing much to game plan for the defense they were facing. And, I think that certainly contributed to a 16 point deficit in the first half. When they came back out, the adjustment was made, and we ran a far more balanced offense, and it showed. It's a lot harder to defend against a balanced attack. I suspect that had we run a balanced game plan in the first half, Singletary may not have had such a huge YPC, as the Jets did not match our adjustment But I think he would have had more yards for the game, and we would have won the game more handily. -

You have to put at least some of this on Gregg Williams, and the culture he creates. Does someone do this and not understand that their own coaches are going to see it? But, if this is the culture Gregg Williams creates, I have to wonder how it affects the rest of the defense's play? I've always been of the opinion that culture matters as much as talent. If the culture in the Jets D is "win any way you can," and rewards dirty play, think of what that takes away from the defense's culture. How much pride is removed in that culture? How much do players care about each other in that atmosphere? And, how much trust exists in such an atmosphere? -
I've always thought there was a bias towards QBs who were exceptionally mobile. It happened with Tyrod, and also Vick on a regular basis. I think the bias may come from the fact that a mobile quarterback becomes a runner so frequently (at which time, the special protections for QBs are gone), that they don't look at them in the same context.

O-line concerns alleviated...
Rocky Landing replied to HerdMenatlity1's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So true. A lot of hay was made about how this line would "gel." Last year, that play would never have made it out of training camp. They ran some really nice screens in preseason, also. I hope we get to see some of that vs. the Giants. -
In preseason, the offense ran some absolutely picture-perfect screens. I don't think they ran a single one vs. the Jets. I hope they run some more designed plays like that vs. the Giants, and balance the pass/run ratio a little better.

The quarterback sweep was a thing of beauty. -
5 questions answered vs the Jets
Rocky Landing replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
A question coming into this game I had was how balanced our offense would be. I felt like a big difference between the first half, and the second was balance. The first half felt like a preseason game to me, where they didn't balance the scheme-- just throw, after throw, after throw. In the second half, the scheme was balanced, and much harder to defend. -
The Bills need to keep Duke Williams
Rocky Landing replied to transplantbillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Is thins a judgement you are making based on combine numbers, or something else? -
The Bills need to keep Duke Williams
Rocky Landing replied to transplantbillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
But can we please dispense with the narrative that Duke is "slow?" Kelvin Benjimin was slow (at least, while he was wearing a Bills uni). Duke is of average speed. If average speed were a deal-breaker, then average wouldn't exist. -
The Bills need to keep Duke Williams
Rocky Landing replied to transplantbillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What strikes me the most about Duke is his catch radius-- it's enormous. He can stretch himself out, in stride, and come down with the ball. That is something that we have seen on tape, and it doesn't really matter that the tape comes from the CFL, or TC, because even without a defender anywhere near, some of these are catches that most of the current Bills WRs cannot make. He can also fight the ball out of a defender's hands. I have seen Smoke Brown do that, too. He is also an exceptional blocker. I have a hard time believing those things aren't still valued in the NFL. And, the Justin Hunter comparison is especially off the mark, IMO. Hunter didn't have anywhere near the athleticism Duke has. Hunter could highpoint a ball, sure. But, I never saw him do it in full stride, stretching himself out the way Duke does consistently. And I never saw Hunter fight for a ball in coverage the way Duke does. How can these things not be valuable in the current NFL? -
Gruden's destruction of the Raiders
Rocky Landing replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Are you kidding? Vegas thrives on such people. It is their lifeblood. Vegas will take all their money, chew them up, and crap out their bones. Vegas hosts the likes of the Hell's Angels, the Ultimate UFC Fan convention, and the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo (which is a hoot, btw). They can handle a bunch of dopey sports fans dressed up in cheap cosplay costumes. In fact, they have an annual cosplay convention, and it is every bit as drunk, and nerdy as the Raiders fans are. Trust me, Vegas knows how to handle rowdy drunks. -
Gruden's destruction of the Raiders
Rocky Landing replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Living in Los Angeles, it is my hope and dream to someday get tickets to a Bills @ Vegas Raiders game, grab a suite at the Rio for the weekend, and live it the f*** up. I'd hate to spend all that money and watch the Bills lose. So, keep up the good work, Gruden! -
