4everBills Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 How frikkin stupid can these people be. Ummm, Travis Henry. Ummmm, how many yards the past 2 seasons? Hes either the second coming of Barry Sanders (who never had a good o-line) or the line isnt as bad as you think. Drew is getting sacked so much in part because of o-line mistakes, but MOSTLY because of sitting back there so long last year and being a statue. I love Drew and I think this O is setup to put him back in the very good QB category. Mark my words, the Bills will get another 1000+ with Travis and will go to the playoffs. Bledsoe gets 20-30 sacks, and Moulds goes backto the pro-bowl. WAKE UP. The o-line is fine if we get the running yards, everything goes from there. Our pass is open, our WR are open because of the stacked line anticipating the run. Travis got 1000+ the last 2 years, why will this year be different?
CoachChuckDickerson Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 It is kind of painful to listen to today. When is Jeff Morison coming on?

The O-line does suck in fact in may be the worst in the fugin league. Fans have a reason to be upset. Travis gets most of those yards on his own. That guy is one tough mutha. Now let's go sign Hugh Douglass for the defense!

Run blocking is MUCH easier for off. linemen than is pass blocking. On a run, the offensive players know the count, and are able to fire out. On passing downs, the defensive players have the momentum, and the blockers are backing up. Last season, Ruben Brown could actually block on running plays, but folded like an accordian when asked to protect the qb. MW is a fat slob who players run past. Teague was over-matched and there was NO credible RG, nor has there been one for 10 years. Jennings was good, but often injured, and not a premier LT when healthy. If the above mess satisfies you, then by all means, insult the fans who want more.
Fan in San Diego Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 I was watching the Broncos a bit this morning on the NFL network. Their o-line was pushing back defenders, creating big holes and the QB had lost of time to throw with no pressure. A model of how a O-Line should be. Our o-line is mickey mouse compared to their O-line.
BB2004 Posted August 30, 2004 Posted August 30, 2004 4everbills- Although it is good to be optimistic, I think it's good to be realistic in this situation. Maybe our overall offensive could be better, but our Offensive Line needs improvement.
