John from Riverside Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 It is interesting how this is the matchup talked about with Addison rushing from the other side and Ed Oliver coming up the middle

ghostwriter Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 Mekhi Beaton is a heckuva prospect.. speed can beat him, which Hughes has plenty of.. but Hughes isn’t a sack master.. 🤔

ocemur Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 The Jets have Le Veon Bell at RB and somebody's dead grandmother at WR. I expect them to try to run to help shorten the game, to help their QB against safeties who disguise coverage as well as anyone and to help a reworked OL with a rookie LT. The Bills need to get a lead and force the Jets to be one dimensional and use the DL depth early and send waves at them until their tongues are hanging out. Nobody is in game shape, so get after them and stay after them. 1
BubbaT Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 Becton is really going to benefit from having no fans in the stands. Rookie tackle going against a speed rusher when he can't hear the snap count is at a huge disadvantage he won't have to face. I think Bell is going to get a LOT of carries and balls thrown to him. The Bills run D needs to be on point. Very much hoping Butler is healthy enough to play Sunday. 2
TigerJ Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 1 hour ago, YoloinOhio said: He sounds very good. Well hopefully since the OL hadn’t played in s game together yet, and Alex lewis next to him is pretty average, Hughes has the advantage For a giant, he's an athletic freak, but he hasn't played an NFL game yet, and both Jerry Hughes and Mario Addison are pretty crafty veterans. Becton does not have a veteran's technique as he relied on his athleticism and size advantage in his college career.

What does that even mean? Greggggg has become a caricature of himself, quickly approaching Rex Ryan status. I really hope the Bills hang 40 on them. He has one year of a decent defense in the last 7 or so and he can't shut up now.
Bob in STL Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 The rookie will likely be very good someday. Tomorrow he benefits from no crowd at a road game.
GunnerBill Posted September 11, 2020 Posted September 11, 2020 So I liked Becton coming out but thought he was a little raw and might be a slow starter early this season. However, he has supposedly been very impressive in camp and has looked instantly like one of the best players on the roster in a way similar to when Tre White first started here. Fortunately for the Bills the rest of the line is still weak

Keeping up a rotation against Becton is important. I’m sure he’ll get help and they’ll run a lot, but I’d make sure we have a savvy vet going against him on every third and long. I’m sure we will also test him mentally with a lot of stunts and overloaded lines. Edited September 11, 2020 by BarleyNY

Bangarang Posted September 12, 2020 Posted September 12, 2020 Remember when we were super confident about Mario Williams dominating Austin Howard? Hopefully we don’t get a repeat of that.

I thought we had a wildcard shot going into week 1. By the end of that game I wondered how we would win a single game.
Lockdown24 Posted September 12, 2020 Posted September 12, 2020 Throw out the stupid draft analysis and what you think you know. Here’s the truth. He’s a rookie LT. He’s going to get beat. Hopefully he manages to look impressive in between the bad moments.
thebandit27 Posted September 12, 2020 Posted September 12, 2020 I loved Becton as a prospect, and I think, in time, he’ll be a great LT. That said, I’ve seen what Jerry Hughes speed, bend, and creativity does to rookie LTs, and I can assure you that Becton will have his hands full. Also remember that Addison comes off the right side too, so it’s not just Hughes he’ll be dealing with. I expect a LOT of max protect to give the Jets receivers time to find space in Buffalo’s zone. The downside for them is that it take the Jets’ best matchup pieces—Bell and Herndon—out of pass routes in critical situations. Of course I expect Buffalo to counter by mixing in a lot of Cover-1/Robber to keep pressure on their 7-man protection sets and take advantage of their superior secondary. If I’m the Jets, the matchup I’m most worried about is Edmunds—perhaps one of the best plus-1 rushers in the game—being singled up on Herndon. That’s a complete mismatch; there are quality OTs that struggle with Edmunds length/speed. 1
