KW95 - JA17 Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 Good morning all, What is going on with JH55. I havent seen much from him all year. Often we read that STAR is not doing his job or Ed Oliver hasnt done much....Where is "the so called leader" on that line?

Often we read that STAR is not doing his job or Ed Oliver hasnt done much....Where is "the so called leader" on that line? Jerry Hughes is the same player he has always been. He is a slightly above average number 2 pass rusher who desperately needs to play with a number 1 pass rusher to be productive. He is the only person on the defensive line that offensive coordinators have to worry about. He needs a Mario Williams level talent on the other side of him, not Trent Murphy. 2
Buffaloed in Pa Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 Stick a fork in him. Running in the sand
SydneyBillsFan Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 Well this year he's playing like he's 55 2

TBD this week. 3
Ya Digg? Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 He's still good enough to get pressure (although not all the time now) but not good enough to get a lot of sacks. He definitely needs someone opposite him that the line needs to focus on at this point
Luka Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 He's always been an above average pass rusher with habit of getting personal fouls. His only good years came from playing with Mario Williams on the other end and Dareus/Kyle in the middle. He's not THE guy, just a guy. 1

What I see is he's trying to rush the passer, but when he's the one they can focus on, he gets neutralized. 2

Seems like a recurring theme that I have pointed out for years on here. He is blacklisted by the NFL. I don't know why the Bills dont see this.

MAJBobby Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 The best player on the DL right now is Jordan Phillips 1

Hughes gets held a lot almost every week...it's kind of unbelievable actually...if they would throw even half the holding flags against him he would lead the league by a wide margin. 2

Feel free to use games where the all-22 is out Zero sacks and minimal pressure on the QB in general - it has been a pattern all year. For whatever reason, he is currently ineffective. Nobody would love to see him bury Keenum this week more but unless there is huge turnaround i cannot see it happening.

He is blacklisted by the NFL. I don't know why the Bills dont see this. Yeah, Eric Wood indirectly and gently called him out in a media interview. Said when he (Wood) was a young player, he'd get fouled or he'd get flagged for holding and he'd get in the ref's face and jaw at them. Then he'd keep getting called for holding, while guys got away with stuff on him, big surprise. So he said he tried shutting his mouth and treating the refs respectfully even when he pointed things out, and lo and behold things changed for him. I don't think Hughes has tried that strategy, but even if he has, I think it may be too late in his career for a change to take hold. 1
Stank_Nasty Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 has somebody come in and referenced his pressures yet? that's usually the go-to.... the good ones GET HOME. solid player..... but we need so much more from the rush.
