What the Juice became off the field doesn't change what he did on it.  Still one of the best ever and the first to hit 2,000 yards in a 14 game season.  So you probably would like to see him removed from the HOF too right?

 

It is an honorific to be on the Wall. What can be given can be taken away. 

 

He will still have all the yards and records. But he won’t be celebrated, as is fitting for a woman beating double murderer. 

 

It is an embarrassment to have his name up there. Bills fans get rightfully mocked for it.

As much as I like the O-line I can't say if it will be a dominant unit just yet. Mainly because I am not too impressed with the Jets edge rush and the Giants D-line in general. I would like to see how the O-line handles better more dominant fronts. Cincy is a solid D-line but I think the Pats and Titans will be a good test as both units could finish in the top 10 in terms of pass and run defense effectiveness.

Holding penalty on Morse was a joke. 

Yeah that was absurd.

The Electric Company .......because they turn on the MOTOR

I like it

 

 

 

..

How about the gas line? 

There's a motor (Singletary) 

There's a clutch (Allen) 

There's speed (Foster, McKenzie)

And there's smoke (Brown)

You do realize why they called them that right?

 

Because they let loose The Juice?    Just a bunch of dudes on what would have been a last place team every year without OJ.

Of course

[RocCityRoller]

No.

 

Just No.

 

Kelly's OL with Will Wolford (OT) and Kent Hull (C) clearly better at #2.

 

Improved, yes. Defending the QB physically, yes. Improvement, yes.

 

Electric Company no.

 

Not even the Water Works yet, and I love Monopoly.

The Electric Company fat exceeds the current group at this point.  Let’s see the present group play together more and gel a bit.  The Company was phenomenal.  

[Nick the Greek]

I like the way our current line is developing.. but they aren’t as good as the one we had anchored by Wood and Incognito.

 

I remember that game when Freddy ran for over 200 yards. Incredible effort by Freddy for sure, but Richie was blowing up huge holes for him to run thru. 

 

Now those were the days!

[Freddie's Dead]

Slow your roll.  The Electric Company was arguably the greatest O-Line ever.  We got a long way to go before we reach those lofty heights.  For now, it's good enough that these guys are WAY better than the crapshow we had last year on the O-Line.

[DCBongo]

Jim's line in the SuperBowl years was nothing to sneeze at.  If these guys can evolve into that until, we could have a contender the next few years.

[Augie]

New day. New players on the line. Still need to put it together. Long way to go, but encouraging and a huge step up from last year. Major props to the FO on revamping the entire offense. They look like they belong in the NFL! Who saw that coming? I know the competition will get better, but so will the offense!  I’m liking what I’m seeing!

This is where I'm at.  A few too many jailbreaks per game, still, for my liking.  And too many pre-snap boo boos.  Spain is a mauler on running plays but ends up chasing his man the wrong way on too many passing downs.  But we're still in preseason, effectively, especially for the o-line, so let's see how things come together as the season continues.

True. Our tackles are still a work in progress but the Guard play as been a pleasant surprise. Morse is as advertised and overall play is much improved. If the Tackles can tighten their game up and the unit as a whole cleans up the false starts it will only enhance Josh's development.

[Jauronimo]

Maybe the Senior Horror Show, The Orderlies, or the Lemon Party because they turn on the old man Gore.

Whoah !!! Let's get up above average before we start comparing this to the EC. They have a very long way to go to reach that level.

These guys are better than last year already, and they will  get better as the season goes on.  

 

That said, they are not even close to the Electric Company.  Maybe one position out of the five is at that level yet.   

 

Bob,  I understand your take historically speaking ... that said compared to the 2018 OL roster ... and I prefaced in my commentary about "jumping the shark" . .but think we agree the current crew blows away or dare I say "Lights up" last year's crew.

 

Dion Dawkins, Vladimir Ducasse, John Miller, Jordan Mills, Ryan Groy, Marshall Newhouse, Russell Bodine, Wyatt Teller, Conor McDermott

No doubt much better than last years crew.  Last year was an abomination.   Hence, Beane bringing in a bevy of experienced linemen to compete.  

 

When adjusting for the time period, the Electric Company in their peak was much better than our line is right now.   Today’s line will get better with time and a few adjustments.
