Notes from the Bills' Line: Bills 27, Bears 20
Talk about great frustrations! The NFL Network decided, for reasons that only they will ever pretend to understand, continued to televise the scrubs from the worst team in NFL history instead of flipping over to the Bills-Bears contest, which was then featuring the first teamers for Chicago and...
Offensive Line Review: Kirk Chambers
With the jettisoning of Derrick Dockery prior to the start of free agency, the Buffalo Bills opened a gaping hole (Dock was a big dude) at left guard. My theory is that the Bills will swing Brad Butler over to left guard, meaning the open hole will shift to right guard. Quite a few people have...
Offensive Line Review: Duke Preston
If you've been around for a while you've likely discovered that I've got a weird fascination with the battle in the trenches. Specifically, I like to spend what free time I have watching how individual linemen do. I got into this mainly because I didn't want to just say so-and-so sucks or is...
Jason Peters' 2008 season
So I get back from Vegas and pull up my favorite Buffalo Bills website (thanks, Brian!) and see a lot of comments about Jason Peters - specifically regarding whether the Bills should trade him away. Most people seem to be irritated by Peters' (irritating) attitude. Some appear to be unimpressed by...
Bills/Jets II: Notes from the Line
Early in the week I noticed with interest that some people thought Duke Preston had a good game and that was why the Bills were able to put up almost 200 rushing yards on a team that hardly allowed 20 in the first match up. My thought was that it likely had to do with Kris Jenkins’ injury. In the...
Third Quarter Grades: Bills Offensive Line
We’re three quarters through the season so it’s time to look at where the Buffalo Bills' starting offensive linemen - Jason Peters, Derrick Dockery, Duke Preston, Brad Butler and Langston Walker - stand. I’m kind of a nerdy chart guy myself, but my last attempt at charts...
Bills/Dolphins: Notes from the Line
Well, that was certainly craptacular. The best spin I can put on the Buffalo Bills' latest loss is that it didn’t take long to break down the game so I'm posting earlier than normal. 13 runs will do that. Oh, and it spells certain defeat as well. That’s not so positive. J.P. Losman’s future...
Bills/49ers: Notes from the line (shorter, lazy man format)
During the first half I wasn’t at all surprised to see the 49ers dropping back into coverage. After all, it’s worked out well for the past slew of opponents. They came on 5 blitzes in the first half, which resulted in 3 completions, 36 yards and 2 first downs. When I saw J.P. Losman warming up on...
Bills/Chiefs: Notes from the Line
I made it back from my trip in better shape than I had hoped (I credit the first class seats…) so I got right on the Chiefs game. Besides, I had kept track of the game whenever I wasn’t on a plane throughout the day on my Crackberry and I was anxious to figure out how the Bills had...
Bills/Browns: Notes From the Line
Welcome back Brad Butler! Oh, how you have been missed. Also, welcome back Pro Bowl form Jason Peters. Where have you been hiding? I was one of those people who was completely mystified by Derek Fine’s selection in the draft. I thought we pretty much already had him on the roster under...
