Domdab99 Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 (edited) So is this because TT runs arround like crazy, or is the OL actually, you know....good? https://twitter.com/PFF/status/946474844211818496 can't post the JPEG because it's too big...oh well Edited December 28, 2017 by Domdab99
westerndecline Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 I'll put it this way the o-line has not been the problem past 3 years

I just wish the Bills were not shopping Glenn. Plug him in at RT next season. Or maybe even RG. No reason to weaken our talent there.

Pretty obvious to me that your rating on this list is NOT a measure of offensive line play. It's a measure of something that is related to having a mobile quarterback. Taylor, Brees, Carr, Mariota are all on the top of this list. Edited December 28, 2017 by Shaw66 1

They are watching the film and I think on some plays you can probably give a grade, but they have NO IDEA what the players actual responsibility was on a given play. A player can be way out of position who just happens to make a play because of it and they will rate them really well on that play but in the film room, the player will probably get torn apart for being out of position. I hate how much people rely on this third party company to determine how good or bad a player is.

Forward Progress Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 For the first ten weeks of the season, I held a burning cross outside of Ducasse's home. He's been playing at the NFL QB level for the last few weeks, in case you hadn't noticed.

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 They've definitely had some stinker games, but for the most part they've done pretty well. The 2nd jets game sticks out in my mind as a game where they really disappointed.

The O-line has never been fully healthy and has always had issues with pass protection. Even when Glenn is healthy the right side has been below average at best. Yes TT holds the ball too long, but he escapes many more sacks than he takes. Ducasse has looked better. Mills is probably not the worst RT in the league but probably bottom 5. Best hope is Glenn is healthy and Dawkins replaces Mills. Hope McDumbass doesn't trade him for a conditional 7th round pick. I think it is less than 50/50 Glenn is back. 2

I highly highly doubt if they paid anything it had to do with the players and how they perform. My guess is IF, and it's a big IF, any NFL team ever paid them a dime, it had more to do with scheme and tendencies. Maybe even tendencies of individual players sure. I am not saying PFF doesn't have some value, it's just not in evaluating every player on every play since they had no idea what the responsibility is.

Yeah - Peterman didn't have a ton of time and the game was blown open by the 2nd half. Tyrod against theJets was just under constant pressure with the 5 man stunts and the o-line was collapsing all game.
