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!
anyone want to guess that the OL has taken a beating from the coaches and the players and from themselves for allowing trent to get knocked out of a game? Do you think maybe this is the wake up call to the team to start protecting better?
Personally, i do think that they'll be a lot better in the chargers game. just a feeling.
well, the play that wilson hit trent, i dont think it was on the oline.. that was a blitz.. but in general, and specifically peters, has let trent take some nasty shots. they need to wake up.

I was actually thinking the same thing earlier today. Our coaching has been way above average with their second half adjustments. Let's hope they can do the same in regards to the second half of the season. Our running game absolutely HAS to pick up.
i wasn't saying that the play he got hurt was their fault per se, just saying that it's a wake up call. the guy has been blind sided and taken some unnecessary abuse for being the biggest line. and if they had the run game rolling, then the pressure is off edwards.
i am hoping that the bills second half of the season performance picks up as well
That hit totally falls onto TE's lack of experience. The line protecting him better is a different story. The line isn't going to improve that much until the FO upgrades through the draft of FA.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't repeat myself.

It's been an issue since the second game. Thats 4 games they have had time to work on it and TE continues to get trounced. The line's flaws are obvious.

No. Fowler can't play any better than what he's shown.
We really, really, really need to fix that in the offseason so we can actually (gasp) run the ball up the middle and not watch some douchebag blow up the center of our line consistently on all downs.
I honestly don't think the pass protection has been that much of a problem. It seems to me that the offense as a whole has gotten off to a slow start throughout most of the season in each of the games, but the line has done its job with the game on the line. Losman holds the ball much too long and Edwards quick release is what landed Losman on the bench to begin with.
With being said, I would defihnitly like to see some better run blocking. Lynch and Jackson should be getting better holes than what's been provided so far this year.

Guys, that was a designed play!! There was no blocker assigned at all.
