Boettger did not look stellar last week, after taking over for Ford. Although, my perception at the time was that he got better as the game progressed. But he was, at best, getting pushed backwards on every play.
I posited a few weeks ago that the Bills should elevate some of the bruisers off the PS for this game-- this Greggo defense is going to be looking to hurt people. Duke Williams has unfortunately become something of a polarizing figure on this site, with some folks jumping at any opportunity to bash him. But he is definitely going to meet defenders head-on. He has a knack for contested catches, isn't going to get pushed around, has great YAC ability, and is a decent blocker who may elevate our running game. I hope he is active, and gets an opportunity to make plays.
I'm beginning to think you have a weird form of identification disorder, and you're really following a completely different team the you are convinced is the Bills.
You can talk about talent
And who has more of it
It’s enough to make your head throb
He can blame who he wants
Or just stand above it
But it’s Late Nate who still has a job.

Disagree with this. He was in the top three on punts within the opposing 20 last season (I was unable to find a stat for within the 10). I feel like the problem this season has been ST downing the ball.
I very much doubt that Feliciano will supplant Ford, or Spain, or Winters at guard. If anything, he should replace either Boettger, or possibly Bates as backup C/G. But, Ford, Spain, and Winters have all played better than him, IMO.
This as all fun, and everything. But, didn't Cardale Jones also have a cannon? I'm sure I remember a video of Cardale throwing a ball some ridiculous distance, flat-footed. If there's going to be some distance contest, I'd like to see it include some accuracy element, as well.
I've been thinking that as well. I don't have an enormous sample size-- just the Pats* game and about a quarter of this one-- but he has errant throws, and occasional bad decisions. He should have had two additional pics vs. the Pats* where he his two defenders right in the hands. Had the Pats* made those two plays, and had the refs not called that egregious non-fumble on Mahomes, the Pats* very well could have won that game.
