GunnerBill Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 He's having a good year from what I see. Credit to Kromer, the scheme, and of course Eric Wood. He has. From the start of the season his improvement in pass pro has been evident and I can't help but think that is due at least in part to the upgrades either side of him at the guard position. However, the early games he was still struggling majorly in the run game - because we trying to run straight behind him. That isn't his strength. The scheme has adjusted and is focusing on getting him out and moving him, pulling him etc.... and that is his strength. He is playing much, much better. The play where we pull him and Richie and run behind the them is my favourite Greg Roman play.
BmarvB Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Between having Kromer as OL coach, and Ritchie Incognito next to him, he's much more able to play to his capabilities.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 23, 2015 Author Posted December 23, 2015 Eric Wood: "We did some good things on offense" (3:13)Bills center Eric Wood talks about being named an alternate for this year's Pro Bowl, the success of the run game this season, and the locker room atmosphere.
Dragonborn10 Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 He has been average at best. No way he should be an alternate to ProBowl. He is much better than last year and under contract which is good. I was thinking draft his replacement this year but they need an OT - probably two actually.
Best Player Available Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 Between having Kromer as OL coach, and Ritchie Incognito next to him, he's much more able to play to his capabilities. First time since Levitre left he didn't have scrubs playing on either side of him. Kromer has done a great job with what he was dealt. Wood surprised everyone. great to have him playing at his potential again. IMO one of the teams few veteran leaders.
John from Riverside Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 If we can get that right side solidified...........
boyst Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 I will not eat my crow. He stunk last year and the start of this year. That's a fact. However, I will give credit where credit is due: he's done very, very well this year.
Big C Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 Really happy to see him elevate his play this year.
jr1 Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 he is a saintly man that has to deal with Mike Schopp every week
Bob in STL Posted December 23, 2015 Posted December 23, 2015 (edited) Not seeing a great year here but overall solid. He is playing like an above average center. The media says he is a team leader, maybe because he is willing to talk to them ... they have a closer view than we do. On the Redskins game goal line stance we was owned.

The play where we pull him and Richie and run behind the them is my favourite Greg Roman play. The system helped a lot......he lost his ability to anchor when his legs kept breaking earlier in his career......but he looks better physically than he has in the past 4 seasons. He regressed to awful last season and nobody knew it better than him. I was glad to hear he was taking a trip to Mexico last January. I think he hooked up his ol' buddy Fitz too.

He wouldn't be the first interior lineman who struggled to move Terrance Knighton (AKA Pot Roast) in the run game.

Freddie's Dead Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 Polian disagrees. Unless by "aging and unathletic" he meant Richie and Urbik?
26CornerBlitz Posted December 24, 2015 Author Posted December 24, 2015 Polian disagrees. Unless by "aging and unathletic" he meant Richie and Urbik? Polian's comments about the OL didn't make a lick of sense.
The Jokeman Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 Polian disagrees. Unless by "aging and unathletic" he meant Richie and Urbik? I stated in the other thread, the aging is Urbik and the unathletic is Henderson and Kujo.
Freddie's Dead Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 Polian's comments about the OL didn't make a lick of sense. Agreed, it was the one part of that article that had me scratching my head. We do have a problem with a GM that has missed badly on OL picks.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted December 24, 2015 Posted December 24, 2015 He has been average at best. No way he should be an alternate to ProBowl.
