Kelly the Dog Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 I just went back and watched every single play that Peters was in on and keyed on him. He played very well overall under the circumstances. I gave grades for each play. Excellent. Good. Did His Job. Fair. Poor. Didn't Matter. If it was a pass play, and he completely took out his man to become a non-factor, I gave him a "Good" If it was a quick pass or run to the other side where all he had to do is stand there and not make a mistake I gave him a "Didn't matter" If he simply did his job but didnt move his man, although his man was a non-factor, I gave him a "Did his job". If he didnt really get a great block but his man had no effect on the play I gave him a "fair". He got three ratings of "Poor". One was the sack, although it really wasn't awful on numerous reviews. Trent had a seven step drop and had time to throw. He didn't step up. Peters pushed his man to the outside and the guy made a good play, just getting to Trent from behind. I still rated that a "Poor". But it wasn't completely awful. The other two "Poor" ratings were run plays where no one else did well either and they resulted in two yard losses to Peters side. He didnt get beat on any pass play other than the sack. He had: Excellent: 3 Good: 14 Did His Job: 9 Fair: 2 Poor: 3 Didnt Matter: 6
Dan Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 F Actually... if you buy Kelly's analysis, it'd be closer to a B- .
Guest dog14787 Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Actually... if you buy Kelly's analysis, it'd be closer to a B- . Considering the heat, Temp wise and Del Rio wise, B- isn't to bad. I kept thinking of that Johnny Cash song, ring of fire, especially when TE went down Taskers on the field before the game " and it burns, burns, burns " and I'm thinking OMG, I hope our depth can help us here or we are cooked Buffalo meat.
Simon Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 I just went back and watched every single play that Peters was in on and keyed on him. He played very well overall under the circumstances. Thanks for the time and effort K. Much appreciated. I thought he looked a little rusty at times but acquited himself fairly well. A good start bodes for a better future.

Much appreciated.I thought he looked a little rusty at times but acquited himself fairly well. A good start bodes for a better future. Well, Marshawn likes to run right a little more, and Trent takes quick drops to the right and gets the ball off fast, so that helps. But he surely just beats his man play after play. He looked a little rusty on two sweeps, the two plays I rated him poor, which resulted in two yard losses. But again, no one blocked on those plays and they were just strung out with nowhere to run. I agree with your Walker post, he has turned into a good signing. Overall, we still don't have great run blocking but it could get better. Shonert has done a good job disguising it.
Dibs Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Actually... if you buy Kelly's analysis, it'd be closer to a B- . I would have thought higher than that.....makes me wonder what a 'normal' LT would get(under the KTFABD rating system). I don't suppose Kelly wants to analyse a few more games of OTs
John from Riverside Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Considering he missed basically everything.....and was going against one of the better D lines in the league....you HAVE to give him a good grade. His productivity from this Sunday to next will probably be very high........the Raider D line leaves a lot to be desired.
Numark Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 he was good throughout most of the game but he was rusty as expected. However, when you protect your quarterbacks blindside, you don't give up that hit he gave up today which caused the fumble.

Like a quick run or pass to the right where his man reads it and doesn't really rush hard. I didn't want to grade those as "good" since it had no effect on the play, even if he blew the block. He stood up well though, pretty much the entire game.

ndirish1978 Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 FWIW I believe he was supposed to block Groves when he hit Edwards for that fumble
Gordio Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 Well, Marshawn likes to run right a little more, and Trent takes quick drops to the right and gets the ball off fast, so that helps.

Overall, we still don't have great run blocking but it could get better. Shonert has done a good job disguising it. This was a tough spot for Peters. Physical defense, playing in 100 degree weather & only having a week of practice. I thought he came out reasonablly well given the circumstances.
StupidNation Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 I would grade him about a D+. Where did he run-block effectively?
Chandler#81 Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 I'd give him a curve grade: C. One noticable note, he was pulled once for the 'Walker change' to run a sweep to his side which gained about 8 yards.. hmm...
Kelly the Dog Posted September 15, 2008 Author Posted September 15, 2008 I would grade him about a D+. Where did he run-block effectively? The touchdown? He blocked two guys and knocked one over.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 F for no fumble recovery and a 2.9 yards per carry average. He managed OK even with his holdout with which I am still sour on.
The Senator Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 I thought PayMe Peters looked like schitt - no better than a D, and no new contract. Not for whiffing on blocks that cause TE to give up the ball. Stick to bowling, PayMe.
Mickey Posted September 15, 2008 Posted September 15, 2008 I would grade him about a D+. Where did he run-block effectively? Lynch's TD run. He took the right side LB and turned him while Fowler did the same to the MLB and Lynch ran right between Fowler and Peters through the 4 yards wide lane they had created. Butler and Dockery did the same to the tackles.

Not for whiffing on blocks that cause TE to give up the ball. Stick to bowling, PayMe. Why don't you go through a play by play analysis like Kelly did and show where he is wrong in his assessment? Of course, that would require you to actually prove a point rather than impressing yourself with your not so clever insults and put downs. The other kids in gym class must think you're awesome.
