Big Turk Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 I know there was some worry about him protecting the blind side, but the man looked like a stud, both as pass protecting Fitz against Hali and helping Spiller run. Did you see that block he laid out on CJ's second touchdown? Priceless. Gilmore is looking better, but Glenn has looked like a beast against some very good pass rushers. Yeah, Glenn just annihilated the Chiefs player after pulling in front of Spiller on that TD run. Dude looks like he is going to be an elite LT sooner rather than later. On a whole, this is the first time in a long time our line doesn't really have any weaknesses. Glenn is going to be a stud LT, Levitre is a pro bowl caliber LG, Wood is a pro bowl caliber C when healthy, Urbik is an above average pass protector and a road grader as a run blocker, and Pears is another underrated stud at RT. IMHO, our line could very quickly become one of the best in the NFL, if it is not already... No sacks in 2 weeks, even against a blitz happy Jets D when Fitz had to drop back and throw pretty much all game, and Spiller is averaging over 10 yard per carry...hard to really say anything bad about them at this point...
marauderswr80 Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 And hes still very very raw!!!! Imagine 2-3 years from now!
machine gun kelly Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Then the question is for chan as I agree with all of you we have some beef and speed on the o line so no excuses when we play the patsies and 49ers to beat them on the run. Great run teams beat great defenses in the trenches and impose thei will. My hopes these gentleman create even more confidence Against cleveland next week, then really run 35+ times against the pats. We pull a win out of there and we then face the TEST. The 49ers D. These guys shut down the packers. You know Fitz won't win it for us. It's all on our beef, and hopefully our two backs as Fred should be back soon so you have a two person threat.
CSBill Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 I will enjoy watching Cordy Glenn for the next 5 years...until he leaves to play for Philly. Eagles are probably calling Orchard Park as we speak ... they are down to five healthy o-lineman, it got so bad today that D. Bell got to play for awhile
Beerball Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Much better than I'd expect from any rookie, much less a second round guard! He has been great! it was so nice seeing him mow guys down 10+ yards downfield. He was running 'right at me' on Spiller's sweep TD. Absolutely burried his guy. I also watched him several times in pass protection and he did a fine job. Real happy with his play.
Special K Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Loved the pick at the time, love it even more now. Certainly proving the draft analyst knuckleheads wrong so far. Keep up the good work, Cordy!!!!
San Jose Bills Fan Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 … our line could very quickly become one of the best in the NFL, if it is not already... No sacks in 2 weeks, even against a blitz happy Jets D when Fitz had to drop back and throw pretty much all game, and Spiller is averaging over 10 yard per carry...hard to really say anything bad about them at this point... Oh don't worry. Someone will come up with something.
billsfan89 Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 I loved the Glenn pick and the fact that you aren't hearing anything about him shows you how good he has been playing. A big reason why our O-line play has been pretty good thus far.
Webster Guy Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Strong and agile. Got over his first week jitters (did we have any false starts today?) We need ya kid, keep up the good work. Love the downfield stuff. Our Oline looks sharp right now.
Beebes Bubble Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 To bad he won't be able to handle playing left tackle in the NFL. Where are those draft experts now?
Dragonborn10 Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 I will enjoy watching Cordy Glenn for the next 5 years...until he leaves to play for Philly. That is funny, painful but funny Resign Levitre now! They can be pro-bowlers together for years!
John from Riverside Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 for the record.....Cordy was on my "approved" list of 3 to 4 players at our 1st round pick...... And he is playing like he could have been drafted there
Dr. K Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 I have to give Nix props for seeing that Glen could be a superior tackle when all the experts were saying he was a guard. He's still learning, but he is a beast. I was very impressed with his downfield blocking. The o-line, if they can stay healthy, is going to make itself known.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 His blocks were tremendous today; like a wall.
Billshank Redemption Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 As stated he was great, I didnt notice him when I wasnt trying to but man when I watched him he impressed me, even more so like everyone said was his downfield runs. Its really nice to finally not only have a great line but some depth up there, certainly makes a huge difference. When we finally get a real franchise qb in here he will certainly be in good shape as far as protection is concerned.
Mainsey Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 I'm really enjoying watching Cordy play. He is big, mobile and nasty! Nix and the rest at one Bills drive deserve enomous amount of credit. So called experts says he is a guard. Nix even put flares out during the draft saying he was a guard. I know its early days but if he keeps improving, working and playing his heart out. Boy we have a potential pro bowl calibre LT. I was one who would have been happy with him at pick 10.
BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Glenn is a monster. Our OL is best in league. Let's run more to avopid our QB issues. This line is made to run or pass. best OL we have had since Juice was running.
3rdand12 Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 for the record.....Cordy was on my "approved" list of 3 to 4 players at our 1st round pick...... And he is playing like he could have been drafted there I was thrilled when we got him even though it seemed a risk. A trust in Buddy moment.Watching him play, with his errors even last week and preseason, he is the real deal. Hairston played well Do we have a legitimate line now? I vote a resounding yes!
