JP's Voice Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 (edited) Looks like 2-3 of those hurries/sacks were on Josh/ WRs not being open down field. I think a very real solution here is to have a back/TE coming out of the back field every single passing play for a check down. Charles Clay and Kelvin Benjamin NEED to catch every pass that hits their hands. Also, why the heck is Patrick DiMarco ever lining up outside?!!!!! Edited August 27, 2018 by JP's Voice 1
jo39416 Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 Watching this I don't feel as depressed as I did yesterday.. Some really good throws.. some drops, receivers running 9 yard outs when it should have been 10... only real complaint is he cant leave that ball to 85 short like that. Also our line sucks. 1

Im good with either at this point and can see the pro and con's of starting Allen or Peterman 1
Doc Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 He should have been 8/12 for at least 70 yards. And I still have no idea why McD didn't challenge that scramble he had, as he got the 1st down. 7
Patrick Duffy Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 Couple plays where he held the ball a little too long, but mostly horrible pass protection which IMO may have gotten him shook a little bit. There will be growing pains, but the Oline HAS to improve for him to obviously have any chance.
BBills88 Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 WTF is the OLINE being taught. Yes Miller made some mistakes. Ducasse & Groy were getting manhandled all day. I hope they release Ducasse and put Teller in their or get someone in hear. No Matter who the QB is they are going to have long days.
Augie Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 Give the guy some HELP! he’s far from perfect, but who knows what it might look like if we could block, get seperation and catch the ball....
cd1 Posted August 27, 2018 Author Posted August 27, 2018 Other than Josh Allen and a few others, a lot of the starters seemed like they were only halfheartedly playing yesterday. Like I have said before - kind of like the pro bowl is played. The coaches should have had a fit! 1
GoBills808 Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 Poor Ducasse. Atkins just absolutely ate his lunch.
Paulus Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 (edited) Allen did protect the ball... *Minus one badly underthrown pass, one could argue. Edited August 27, 2018 by Paulus 3
Boatdrinks Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 The ( surprising) underthrow to Clay is the only one I really can fault him for. The protection was mostly awful. Of course, Daboll could have had him go out and complete short quick passes a la Darnold. What would that have told them? This is when I remind myself that they were trying to evaluate something. Not scheming to negate a rush and win a preseason game.

Clay originally sped up and then had to start coming back toward the ball.

With the blocking in front of Allen maybe he just wanted to get the kid off the field before Atkins ate him.
ddaryl Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 (edited) Groy whiffed hard on one of those sacks bad. All the guy did was side step him and run straight in. Still watching.. Groy whiffs again a little later on letting the guy do a side step and run around him Edited August 27, 2018 by ddaryl

Biggest issue I see is he staring down his receivers, retreating far too back, taking way too long (learn to throw it away). Edited August 27, 2018 by RoyBatty is alive 1

I also wondered BUT watching that play - it was right in front of our bench and I saw no reaction on the sideline that anyone right there thought it was a 1st down.

For a guy the size of Ducasse to get thrown around like he was is just mind numbing. 2
ddaryl Posted August 27, 2018 Posted August 27, 2018 (edited) Miller and Ducasse continually got manhandled like children in a diocese Edited August 27, 2018 by ddaryl 1 2
