Their line wasn't that good last year - and arguably got worse.  Reading some of the Pats boards, it's their biggest concern heading into the season (aside from whether or not Jones can take the next step).

 

I don't see it as worse, with Saffold, that walking disaster, gone. But I worry about Spencer Brown. If he's a liability again (or once again injured), the Bills willl need to keep Dawson Knox in, as they did last year.

Oh, for sure. I think our line is a LOT better, actually.  My comment was about the Patriots O-line, which looks to be worse than last year.

how the hell does PFF know this when Our team has not even made the decision on the position yet?

I think it is because they know how to read a depth chart:

Are you joking?

 

Think most of the division isn't too scared of Jones so they don't try to force him into mistakes he can make them with no pressure.

According to accounts the #1 o-line has been looking much better so far this preseason, and did well in the 1st preseason game, imo we will see notable improvement throughout the season,

Tua doesn't even need an offensive line now, he's all beefed up.

Fits in well with the West Coast Sound.  His version of 'Light My Fire' is timeless, but I find 'Feliz Navidad' a stale holiday dirge.

That's because it's just 3 words long.

[The Frankish Reich]

What's the over/under on the number of games Tua is able to finish?

 

If by some magic they could be assured that Tua will stay healthy all year, I would be scared of these Dolphins. But the backups are Mike White* and Skylar Thompson. Almost as incredible as them not shoring up the O line to protect a particularly fragile QB is them failing to bring in a competent backup. This will not end well.

 

  *And I kind of like Mike White, at least theoretically on an offense that can protect him. That was not the Jets, and it is not the Dolphins.

[Doc]

I still can't believe they picked-up his 5th year option.  Dumb.

Yeah this was the kind of thing our former Def Coord passed up because, oh well, THE SCHEME.

 

Of course if McDermott starts calling 3rd and 18 like Frazier.......

Dude, preseason depth charts are one step up from astrology.  Even regular season depth charts need to be taken with a salt shaker.

 

The Bills acknowledge that there are a bunch of active battles, including for RG.  This version of a preseason depth chart doesn't

I'm more apt to believe this is the typical preseason head fake.  Meaning that teams are usually not as good or as bad as they look during the pre-season
