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!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Mouse McNally came to the Bills with the rep of being one of the top O-line coaches. But he has done nothing since he's come here. YOu could argue he didn't have the talent, but they gave him two huge FA linemen this year and still nothing. CBS showed a graphic saying the Bills on average had 60lbs and 4 inches on the Philly D-line. You have that much size advantage and you can't move the pile? That's coaching.

If there is anything on this team we don't need to worry about, i would say its the o-line. I agree we didn't get much of a push on running plays but pass protection this year was the best i have seen in a while for buffalo. I would like to see us get a different center but other than that i think we need to focus on other positions.

Pass protection was adequate at times. Run blocking was horrible. When you are that big and you can't gain one yard should tell you something ain't right.

If I remember correctly, the graphic that CBS showed was for the "front 7" for the defense. Obviously we'd have a size/weight advatnage if they're including the linebackers.
I think we should clean house and bring in Russ Grimm as our head coach.

I have to disagree with you here. That is not coaching. I have mentioned this before. The line has been coached well for protecting the QB in pass situations, but they clearly haven't been hitting the weights enough and b'cse of that don't get the push that they should. I blame this on the training regimen that has been installed for them. They may be taking it lightly to stay healthy during the season. Now in the offseason, they better hit the weights hard and come back as strong as their size might dictate them to be. The strength/physical trainer should create a regimen for each lineman to follow and come in next season in much stronger shape!!!
The pass protection was good enough to protect Bledsoe this year. But the same big heavy guys who are hard to move from a pass rushing standpoint can't move themselves in a run blocking situation, apparently.
Marshawn got to the second level untouched through a big hole ONE TIME today. And he went for like 60 yards.
You are right. We should get rid of a coach who made a pro bowl left tackle from an undrafted FA.

Strength? Might the issue also be that we're using zone blocking schemes with a line that should be mainly using power schemes?

Might the issue also be that the Bills passing game sucks balls? Teams stack the line and dare Buffalo to beat them through the air. And most times, they couldn't.

To be fair, the original assessment of the line was talking about 4th and inches and how they are frequently unable to get those inches despite being much bigger than the Dlines put in front of them. With the size of the Oline, we should be able to make those every time...and yet, we don't. I do agree that losing Rusty was a huge cause of our current problem. Yet another reason Mularkey set us back for years to come...
