Quess got beat on the tripping play but otherwise he was an upgrade in pass pro. 

And Chris Jones is one of the best in the business.

Spencer should have never been in game.

 

The guy just isn't good.  Team is trying its best to make the draft pick work, but time to make Q the starter.

 

I worry about depth, but Q needs to be starting over Brown.

Brown is a young, huge, athletic RT.  He is a bit raw and it hurt him to miss most of of off-season and training camp due to back surgery.  I think Brown’s upside is pretty high and he is worth developing.

For sure the pressure from the right side decreased with Q. 

 

Brown was getting whipped.

I agree.  It's hard to develop OL players.  A DL can get a number of snaps and if he doesn't "win" his snap the worse that happens

is he becomes ineffective for that play.  When a developing O-Lineman doesn't win his snap, it can cause a huge loss to the offense.

 

It's a tough decision on the coaches and irritates us fans.  Knowing how hard it is, I give a little more leeway I guess than others do.

Update

 

 

This is why every year in the first 3 rounds the following 2 positions need to be addressed:  OL and WR. Do we have elite talent and depth in those two groups? If no, then address in first three rounds. Once that question is asked we can address other needs on the team. 
 

We need to constantly keep adding talent to the OL followed by the WR group for Allen. Protect him and give him weapons above all else. Allen is how our bread will get buttered for the next 10+ yrs.

Brown sucks…. He was god awful yesterday before the injury… how some fans feel the need to disagree with that reality I don’t understand. 

 

He's had an up and down season so far but we've played some damn good defensive lines so far. Still like this upside but always leery of 2nd year players on this team.

 

Thought Quessenbary stepped in and looked pretty good though should Brown be out for an extended out of time.

Thought the sideline reporter said they brought out the cart, but Spencer waved it off and walked back to the sideline and then locker room.

Correct he refused to get on it

 

Also a note normally they seen 2 big guys out to support or even help someone off the field under his arms.

 

But when your 6' 8" plus or minus

Don't think 🤔 there are many guys that can support that height

 

Groot maybe but he is still shorter

 

😆 🤣

That's why I'm super hesitant to give up draft picks for CMC, especially a first rounder.  We need to draft some good, young OL talent.

You can get linemen in later rounds. You RARELY find game changing players there. Remember Stefon Diggs

[wppete]

What the timeline? How long is he out for?

You can. Just like you can find a Tom Brady at the 199th pick.  However, your chances of success and landing a top prospect are in the earlier rounds.

Unknown as of now.  He's likely waiting on the imaging results, or swelling to subside, Coach didn't have more info today.

 

We will be fortunate if he's back for GB, had the look of a serious injury initially.

That’s fine, just as long as he is not out for the season. Let him sit a the bye week and a couple of games and come back fully healthy. Quessenberry is a solid back up and can use the work, think we will be alright with him.

Thankfully we have a great backup who really isn’t much of a downgrade. Get well soon, Spencer!

Believe it or not I actually like Q over Spencer. Brown has been somewhat inconsistent so far.

I like being 5-1, but when healthy we should also lead the league in rebounding! 

[John from Riverside]

To me Brown and Quessenberry at this point in their careers are almost equal

 

It does leave us thin at tackle again

I don’t think there much between Brown and Quessenberry. I think Brown has a bigger upside, so I think he’s worth playing if both are healthy, but I doubt the Bills will lose much with him out. Unless Brown returns and takes a big leap though, I think they need to think about upgrading RT in the off-season if possible.

How many years has this been ?
 Talk about upgrading Right Tackle ?
Just the intensity of the conversation changes. But the chatter has been with us for "decades" ?
 

Didn't Darryl Williams or somebody where we thought we were okay  and have a good year ?
For the record I love Dion Dawkins, so we got that going for Us and likely the second most important player on the Bills line after Morse calling coverage etc

Ps  i hold hope out for Brown under Kromer. Q ? not so much

[Heathcliff]

Brown is a beast in the run game!  Still learning on pass protection.
