Clarification on Buffalo's "HORRIBLE" offensive line

taking a knock on us already. hopefully walker and butler prove him and everyone else wrong.

this is exactly why we should sign Levi Jones. We need insurance! Do I think we’ll be fine? I don’t know, sure, I guess. But we need a plan in case Walker or Butler are not up to the challenge, which is a real real scenario!

So this must mean that we will be facing alot of 7 and 8 man fronts. We are starting back ups so just pressure the outside and put pressure on Edwards. Which means we will be checking off to the backs and TE’s alot. Sound familiar!!!! The Backs anyway. How much time would Evans, Owens and Reed need to get open with one on one coverage. Lets figure seven in the box leaving four to cover the three wr’s. The long pass will be doubled leaving one on one with the other two. Give Trent three seconds in the pocket and he will eat you alive. Couple that with the no huddle and you won’t know what hit you after about two quarters. These people could be 100% correct in their analysis but we have been there and done that in the past. It is getting old, but you cannot convince me that we are worse off than last year. For two years I have asked myself what did Peters do to make the pro bowl. We were 7-9 in those years too. Ruben Brown was another one. I have nothing but respect for those two as players but it is more about team than personal accolades and they didn’t deliver us. This years OL will have to rely on everyone contributing to be successful and I believe it is there. We are better off than last year with this OL.

I remember the years in the late 90s when the Bills would get picked at 4th in the division every year by all the magazines and the sportswriters. Yet we made the playoffs in 95, 96, 98, and 99. Let those hacks talk away. Statistics prove we do better when they count us out.

Not sure what to say here, except that I think he is a little harsh, but at this point I wouldn’t say our line is any better than average. Again, I think people are merely hung up on the fact we lost Peters, and perhaps Dockery, than who the players we actually have are.

Vicious V, why don’t you post here then?!?! Stop lurking and make your presence felt! We’d love to have you.

Mr. Jeramiah was such an accredited scout then why would he need to talk to a personnel director (another scout) to reinforce his opinion? The guy sounds like first class chode, it was speculated that he was fired because he gave team intel to ESPN.

I don’t know why someone would call Langston Walker a back-up type considering he’s started pretty much his entire career. As for Butler, he seems like a Jon Runyan clone to me. Whatever, I don’t know why I let it bother me when people who probably couldn’t find Buffalo on a map comment about the Bills.

Look, I have some doubts, mostly about Levitre, but doubts they are. I listen to people talk about the Bills (and others teams) on EPSN, Fox Sports, and even NFLN that don’t know what they are talking about. Their arguments are usually the same thing that the guy before them said. They hardly ever differ, no one knows enough about the teams that they are reporting on (except the reporters from those cities that are usually tougher on the staff and players) to make an argument that may be contrary to popular opinion. I just hear things on TV or the radio sometimes that make me cringe, not because I disagree so much, but because they miss the more important aspects of the argument and gloss over to the big “names”. I remember when everyone said that when we got rid of T. Spikes and L. Fletcher that we would be the worst defense in the league because we didn’t have any good LBs. They didn’t understand our scheme, or the importance (or lack thereof to be precise) of the LB corps.

i think bufflio is a sleeper team this year t edwards is smart can get the ball to peopie deep rb core very deep wr now u ol is not the best but its better than peopie think e wood was very good in collage l waiker is good been a starter for years i like b bulter the media dont care about buff because they hate the cold weather
