All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Granted Houston has zero pass rush, the Jags were held in check. Whats been the diff in our OL the past 2 weeks?
Villareal is looking like he was a liability!! Pennington moving to RT might be the difference. The TD run was on the left side where Peters is now!!!!
The biggest thing we learned from the Bills is that they are a resilient bunch and did what they had to do to win instead of past years where they fold like a cheap lawn chair.

Villarial was looked up to because he was a vet. I knew the OL was gonna get better once he was gone. Preston is young and is only going to get better with experience just like the rest of the team. Villarial was done a year ago.
The run game has been poorer but the pass game better due to OL changes - Villarial was a much better run blocker than a pass blocker and bringing in Pennington helped because he was more physical than Peters who faces more speed rushers than bull rushers. Gandy is playing better at guard than Reyes was and that is bad for Bills because Gandy is not locked up and Reyes is.
Correct, Villarial is a decent run blocker when healthy, but a poor pass blocker. Pennington also seems to have adjusted a little bit and is at least hanging in there and not getting trounced every play. Same with Preston, who appears to be a better pass blocker.
Offensive lines tend to do better as the year goes on, while the Defensive line goes under. You rarely see 100 yard rushers 1st week, but by now, there are plenty this week. JMO, but you guys are finally gelling.
