hoping we go 4 and 0 in the preseason
Rocky Landing replied to Howard's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I actually love watching preseason games. I love seeing the bubble guys fighting for a spot, or even just recognition, trying to keep their NFL dreams alive. I also like seeing the coaches experimenting with various positions, and schemes, and the evaluation process. We got to see Christian Wade take it to the house. I was wondering how Senorise Perry would look in a game, and I got to see that. I wouldn't at all be surprised if we did go 4-0 for the preseason, just on the depth of our defense alone. IMO, our second string defense is a good, or better than the bottom third of the league's first string defenses. Word. -
I think in one series during the Colts game, Barkley handed off to Singletary something like nine plays in a row. People say that preseason games are meaningless, but I love them. I love watching players battle for spots on the roster, but I also love to see a coach like McDermott give a rookie RB back a pounding to see what he's made of. It's a shame Knox wasn't out there-- maybe he would have gotten his first touchdown. But, I suspect we will see him soon enough.

I only say that there is a distinct possibility that we only carry five wide receivers because Beane has mentioned the possibility more than once. I also think there is a good possibility that they carry four RBs, and four TEs, which increases that likelihood. Another indicator that I've seen is that they have been giving Roberts so much time in at WR, and giving him so many routes. And, if we only carry five, the obvious choices would be Brown, Jones, Beasley, Foster, and Roberts. I would say there was a zero chance of carrying both McKensie, and McCloud.

Peterman 50-yard run! ?
Rocky Landing replied to The Bills Blog's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
One of the definitions of fraud is "someone who is not what they seem, or is represented to be." I'm sure Late Nate wants to be a competent NFL-level QB. He's not. Does he know he's not? I think somewhere in his brain, he must. That is why I said "... to some degree..." Do I hold it against him? Only if he's wearing a Bills uni. But, the bottom line is: Nate Peterman is not a competent NFL quarterback. -
It would be a surprise if he wasn't cut, no?

Peterman 50-yard run! ?
Rocky Landing replied to The Bills Blog's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I don't hate the guy, I hate the player. At least, I did when he was wearing a Bills uni. I think the situation is just amusing, now, and I'm glad he's on the Raiders, because I'm watching Hard Knocks, and I think it'll be good entertainment. I can't really root for him, though. At least to some degree, I think he's a fraud. And, I don't like frauds. I'd much rather see Mike Glennon get their backup job. He's had a decent pro career. In the two games he played in AZ last year (behind truly the worst O-line in the league), he held his own, and did pretty well. I think he deserves it more. -
Here's mine: I think it's a distinct possibility that they only carry five wide receivers, and neither McKenzie, or McCloud make the cut.

Prediction time: Who are your Surprise Cuts? They happen every year, although I feel like this roster is more set than it usually is by this time in preseason.

Once they finish their move to Vegas, they can include drunken, whoremongering, gambling addicts to that. -
Bills release 2nd unofficial depth chart
Rocky Landing replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Looking at this, I think there are still some battles ensuing. I doubt they have a final decision on how many WR/RB/TE they carry. I could certainly see them carrying four RBs. Beane has mentioned on more than one occasion the possibility of only carrying five WRs. They still have Long as the #2 center. But, Feliciano covered Morse in preseason game one, and Long played guard, and both did decent jobs in those positions. I have a hard time believing that Yeldon is fourth in depth. I doubt NCB is entirely settled. Or #2CB, for that matter. If Kevin Johnson took #2CB, would they use Wallace as NCB? Could KJ take NCB? Lots of people were pretty happy with the Nsekhe-LT/Ford-LG combo. Was that really only to move Feliciano to center for PS game one? Sure, but who will be The Surprise Cuts? They happen every year. Maybe it deserves its own thread? -

Wyatt Teller dominating run block
Rocky Landing replied to Bocephuz's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Not to take anything away from Teller, but that clip shows him pushing back a second-string linebacker, who is not in front of the ball, and who is 80 pounds lighter than him. -
Peterman 50-yard run! ?
Rocky Landing replied to The Bills Blog's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think we would all do ourselves, and discussions such as these, a favor if we would draw the distinction between hating the person, and hating the player. I don't think anyone here hates Peterman the person. I'm sure he's a fine dude. Whatever. Lots of people on here do hate the player, though. Personally, once he was out of here, the hatred was gone. Lousy players on other teams don't bother me at all. But, I sure didn't like him when he was here, because I thought he was a fraud, and I don't like frauds, especially when they're wearing a Bills uni. As far as being bored goes, I guess I was getting a little bored with Tyrod, but there are worse things than boredom. I was at that Chargers game when Peterman crapped the bed so spectacularly, it set records. It made me sick to my stomach. Hard not to hold that against a player. -
Peterman 50-yard run! ?
Rocky Landing replied to The Bills Blog's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
That's a great point. He really was spectacular at failing. -
I think Boettger is eligible for one more year. They had him in with Tyree, at center, I think.
-
Bodine (BO - deen) verb 1) Stand, and look at your quarterback lying on the ground, unable to scratch your head, because you're wearing a helmet. 2) To pretend you are a tree stump.
-
And even though Long is listed as #2 center on the depth chart, they played Feliciano with the starters vs. Colts. Bodine made himself utterly expendable on Thursday. His next grammar lesson.

Peterman 50-yard run! ?
Rocky Landing replied to The Bills Blog's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Peterman is an ex-Bill who played historically bad football while he was here. I've read the above posts, and don't see anything worthy of clutching your pearls. Bad players get discussed on these boards all the time, and Peterman literally set records for bad football. Why on Earth should he be off limits? -
Peterman 50-yard run! ?
Rocky Landing replied to The Bills Blog's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He's not facing a defense that has game planned specifically for him. And bad for the Raiders. -
[Vague Title] Trade alert...
Rocky Landing replied to Bills4life1924's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I have an oak tree on my property that's harder to get around than Connor McDermott. I thought McGhin looked pretty good last night. I know he was only playing vs. scrubs, but he looked solid. -
[Vague Title] Trade alert...
Rocky Landing replied to Bills4life1924's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's a little weird-- almost like he's practicing. Trade a guy who isn't going to make the 53 for another guy who isn't going to make the 53... -
2nd Team O-Line better than last year's 1st Team
Rocky Landing replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Spencer Long had some decent run blocking with the twos. Feliciano seemed a competent center. I suspect that being bracketed by Spain, and Ford helped in that regard. I was surprised they had Feliciano in there, and not Long, who was listed as second center, after Morse, on their unofficial depth chart. I assumed his hamstring was still an issue, but then he was playing guard and blocking downfield on run plays.
