phillyrich Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 46 pass attempts - 0 sacks allowed to the number 2 sack team from 2010 200+ yards rushing to one of the top rush defenses from 2010 Yes, yes, I know, There is a whole lot more involved in this eye popping performance by our O Line vs the Raiders this week. At the end of the day, and in response to the continual questioning of this O Line by many fans and news reporters in WNY all off season, and even during the week leading up to the Raiders games, enjoy what you see in front of you. The O Line is good, actually very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 46 pass attempts - 0 sacks allowed to the number 2 sack team from 2010 200+ yards rushing to one of the top rush defenses from 2010 Yes, yes, I know, There is a whole lot more involved in this eye popping performance by our O Line vs the Raiders this week.

The O Line is good, actually very good. They were, and they do deserve props! We shouldn't overlook the contribution Fitz makes to the OL quality, though, along with Chan's game plan. Between them, they sling the ball outta there very quickly, which helps the OL look better. In return, knowing if they just hold for a little bit, Fitz will make plays, seems to help them stay stout. I was never so scared as when the announcers said "we have a new quarterback for the Bills" and Thiggy started to come out there. Anyone hear what was up with that? I'm most impressed by the run blocking, actually - huge improvement on last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end of the day, the success of any O Line will include combination of the entire offense including coaching and game planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennesseeboy Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 The o-line has played VERY well in the first two games, and I say this as probably a major sceptic. But there ain't nobody going to give us the love we deserve until we beat the patsies.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSBill Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) I think right now the o-line is giving everyone on this board, in the national media, and especially the local media, a big collective middle finger . . . and they deserve to do so.

saundena Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 They look pretty good, but we still need to draft for Depth. Hopefully Ubrik is OK- have they announced what is wrong with him yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
