I know it is his first action... but Ede U is in over his head.

Yea the second one was a bad exchange

Solomon with 2 nice plays against the run

In fairness to Mitch the 2nd one was a bad snap.

Didnt get it

Go for it

Looks like entire backup OL too

Sensible. 1 snap handoff to Cook. Sit.

YES!

I mean his own lineman sacked him really haha.

Von has his money.

Buffalo Joe out there

Interesting they have sat Ed and DQ because that backup DTs have not been good all year.

Yea but Grable was on IR at that point.

Hope this means we get to see Grable start?

Let's goooooo Buffffffaaaaaallllllooooooo

Definitely true. Especially because he was a convert to tackle from tight end.

Dabes wanted to take him to New York so if he ends up OC somewhere then I can see Dorsey catching on as QB coach.

It was 4th. In both yards and points. The following year was 19th and 15th.

The Browns season was a mess and Stefanski basically gave up playcalling when Watson went down so that the stink of what followed was on Dorsey. But when you watch them... a lot of the same issues we saw when he was here arose. Dreadful at blitz pickup, seeming lack of hot route adjustment, receivers runnning downfield and ending up crashing into one another at the same spot, total lsck of quick game. Limited motion even as a means of identifying coverages. Just all a mess. I don't think he is good at this. If he wants to coordinate college is his route. If he wants to coach in the NFL I am sure there will be QB coach opportunities for him.

They actually got super lucky because they decided Johnson couldn't and traded UP to draft Andre Dillard in the first round to be their LT. He was a bust but they hit with Mailata the following draft in round 7. It was Howie's version of bust with Elam but hit with Benford. I ultimately don't think the Bills will need Brown to play LT. I think they have something in Grable. He had as good a pre-season as I have ever seen from a rookie tackle on the Bills. The fact that he beat out RVD for the swing spot and then we have seen VD play and look perfectly serviceable against Indy is more encouragement. We need to see it on the field and hopefully we get a chance today. He is the guy I am most looking forward to. But sure, Brown gives them at least an option if their other plans fail.

Yea I am not sure Brady is ready yet either. I do think he will get interviews but I expect him to be quite circumspect about what he'd take. I think he knows he jumped at the Carolina OC job without really thinking it through and he won't want to make that mistake at HC level because if you do it's harder to get a do over. Being a Head Coach is way more than Xs and Os. I don't put him in the Daboll camp where the personality was more of a question. I think Brady has the personality for it. Just not sure he has the experience. And when you are coordinating Josh Allen there is no need to rush. You are going to be in the mix every year. If none of the jobs thid year look and feel right (and I think it is a bad market personally) then you can wait a year. Who was? Shanahan? He wasn't.

I agree that the personality thing should matter less as an OC (although I am not sure the Bills see it like that, they want people who fit their culture) and he definitely isn't gonna be poached. His Head Coaching days are over. That is for certain. My concern is his offense. He was on the cutting edge 9 years ago when the Eagles hired him with all the RPO stuff. But the league moves so fast, especially on offense, and all the creative minds now are winning with motion and leverage and I am just not sure he has kept up. The Jags offense looked a lot like the chuck and duck mess ours had descended into in the middle of 2023 for much of this season. And we don't have Brian Thomas Jnr to bail the playcalling out.

His playcalling looks a bit outdated to me. Jaguars have been bottom 3 in the league in terms of using motion this season. It gives me slight Dorsey vibes. Looks like an offense that Tom Moore and Peyton Manning might have run in 2006 and that ***** just doesn't fly now unless you have truly dominant weapons outside. I want someone who is going to use shifts and pre-snap motions to create leverage advantages the way Brady does. Because Josh has excelled with those schematic advantages. I fear Pederson would end up putting everything back on Josh and taking away those quick button throws.

I think he played there in a game as a rookie. When Dion was out with covid maybe? I think Brown moved to left tackle and Daryl Williams played right. Generally there are two reasons someone can be a good right tackle but not a left tackle: 1. Mirroring. You assume everyone is comfortable making the same movements just mirrored at either spot. But that isn't necessarily true. There are some players who just for reasons of natural feel or because of a physical thing (usually back or knee) are more comfortable moving in one direction than the other. I know Spencer has had back issues but given he has done it some before I don't know that there are issues for him in that regard. 2. Foot speed to pass block. For right handed Quarterbacks where the left tackle is the blind side blocker their pass blocking is of greater importance and in particular the footspeed not to be beaten around the edge and to recover if they are. Is Spencer loses a rusher Josh can see it and adjust. If Dion does generally that is a bigger problem. I don't think Spencer lacks for speed although because of his size he doesn't quite have those quick nimble feet that Dion has. If you'd asked this question after last season I'd have said definitely not. Spencer was coming on as a right tackle, had improved his pass blocking but was really your prototypical right tackle road grader. But his pass blocking has taken another step this year and while my preference is leave him on the right side and let him dominate there if Dion went down in a high leverage spot and they didn't want to throw the rookie Grable out as the blindside blocker I wouldn't be adverse to them trying Brown.
