Been very disappointing in how the situation turned out with RW and Denver. Have to wonder how much of it is RW and how much is Hackett?? I just have a hard time believeing RW is really that bad this fast.

I get it, I'd love for the screen game to begin to have some success. As for the flea flicker, I don't know how much confidence I'd have that the Oline would hold up enough for that. Specially right now with Dawkins out

No likely to it lol. Definitely would be the fix. Hope Poyer stys healthy rest of the season. Hope all goes well to where Hyde has a shot to get back sometime in the playoffs

Agree, could use 2 RBs at times with 1 helping block and sending the other against the LB. I'm sure we will likely see some of it all with TE/RB helping in the back field. Will be paying close attention to how Dorsey handles this situation. Guess we'll see a little of how much he's learned so far as OC

I think it's more than the elbow myself. I mean, don't get me wrong here....definitely would say the injury plays a part for sure. However I think it's something else also, possibly his confidence to a little drop and also Dorsey may have toned it down with some of the play calls during this time. Reason why I say this is some of the passes from Josh (ex. 40 yd dart to Diggs where only Diggs could get it) where it seems to me the elbow isn't bothering him quite as much, which I'm extremely happy about.

You must be stuck on the way back machine with Tyrod at QB

Maybe so, but I'd guess 2 of best S's out could probably be the biggest reason. Also while TJ has had some ups and downs, I think he's been solid considering the situation. The main one struggling the most is Dane Jackson imo

Well if you bet every game this week on 15 games with same bet and got lucky winning each of them.....you'd win a whole 120 dollars... What will you do with your jack pot winnings???

Lol, wow! I mean why even bother betting...

Hope it will be on Saturday myself....Either way I'm not missing it but Saturday would be cool

When both your players at S position that are one of the best in the league, if not the best and have been missing majority of the time then it tends to impact the secondary. Expected them to struggle some

And didn't even get a bite of the turkey leg.... or maybe it was offered and he's not a big turkey fan

Yeah Dawkins absence will be felt for sure. Might see a bit more quicker passing attack and RBs/TEs helping on that left side. If they can be better with the screen plays this is a good time to do it

Lol Texans aren't really even trying all that much it seems

Correct. Was about to post the same....

I see what you did there...well played lol

Overall the Oline has been fairly decent. I believe they are quite a bit better than some seem to suggest. I know there are areas that need to improve for sure. You mentioned specifically T and G....Specifically the last 2 games with S. Brown out, it looked to me DQ was better in both pass and run blocking. While there's definitely room for improvement, I just don't feel it's as terrible as some make it out to be. Would you say the Oline so far is better or worse than last season?

You mean the one with him and OBJ holding the SB trophy?

I tend to agree with you. As long as Josh continues to have help surrounding him and solid Oline there's no telling how wide it can be. Defense has always been competitive under McD so that's likely not to change much. Don't want to take it for granted though because something could happen and that window can close pretty fast. But definitely going to enjoy every minute of it while it last

Clearly means he's coming to Buffalo "connect the dots"~Dunkirk Don

I did read entire post. Of course he's improved. I didn't say or imply you denied such improvement. I specifically referred to the part of your post that said, "he has trouble with one on one tackling". That's why I put that particular sentence from your post in bold. Not sure how you must have misinterpreted that or if you may have mixed my post up with a different person? Anyways....just wanted to clarify....

I have seen him make some good one on one tackles this season. Some of them being big time hits. So not sure about that

Yeah probably just one of those minor things that have to be reported by rule and was more or less going to be a vet rest day anyways.. Doesn't Von usually have vet rest on Wednesday's and doesn't practice? I'm not sure how often, but I think I've seen vet rest quite often listed for him on Wednesday practices.

Yup I agree....although I have seen quite a few post not long ago posters claimed his big improvement in play is due to "it's expected because it's a contract year". Have seen that statement posted multiple times and can't believe how one could in all honesty come to that conclusion.... I don't see how one can refuse to acknowledge the complete revamp of Bills Dline with addition of Von Miller along with how HUGE the improvement is/has been playing, also could say it's best Dline in Buffalo has had in a very long time..especially pass rush/pressure the QB... How could one not clearly see the way Dline has been killing it up front not a big factor in making Edmunds job so much easier? I mean this is the best Dline Edmunds has ever had in front of him since he's been a Bill. I can't see how one refuses to state the obvious and comes up with he's improved because "it's a contract year" and being serious/honest saying it. So guess it must be some other agenda or something
