Astrobot Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 At first glace at the stats, you'd think Tripplett wasn't any great shakes. He was credited with one assist, but a look at the video will prove otherwise. His pursuit of Culpepper caused Culpepper to throw Crowell's INT. He was being double-teamed so Denney got the sack putting them in 3rd and 32. He and Kyle Williams, or he and Kelsay, or Schobel, constantly broke down the pocket.

Ray Posted September 17, 2006 Share Posted September 17, 2006 The inside guys did play well. When Big Ted would clog the middle and the Bills had great defenses his stats were awful at first glance. A couple of tackles a game. But if one guy consistently requires double teams and is stout at the line of attack then they are doing their job. Great overall effort by the DL. Still need some work on the running game, but definite improvement today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triplett played well. Kyle Williams already looks like the real deal. I think that McCargo will develop as well. I think the talent on DL is good. I am not nearly as excited about out OL talent though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Butler's going to be our starting LT or RT in a year or two and we'll be happy for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBuffaloDisease Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Butler will be the RT. Peters will be LT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
