I rarely see him call out a play after diagnosing the defense, turning his head back to the quarterback and pointing his left arm to the rest of the D making the call. Perhaps that is on Hackett, or me for not seeing it.
Whatever the case, Eric Wood has been just as guilty for negligent offensive line play midway in to this 2014 season.
At first I thought Eric Wood's play was lackluster because of the guards playing next to him.
Can't say that anymore though after last week.
I love the dude as a Buffalo Bill, love his attitude and enjoy listening to him every Monday at 4pm on WGR550, but have to admit that he has been struggling as of late.
Center Eric Wood (55, -5, 1.7) turned in his fourth performance out of the last five games that has yielded a negative plus-minus. Wood was unable to secure his blocks and was the sole reason a handful of plays were blown up in the backfield. Coming into the season he was depended on to be a calming force, and unfortunately he hasn’t been able to do it just yet. The debut for Kraig Urbik (55, 1, 2.7) went fairly well. Against a strong defensive front Urbik held his own and really only slipped up a couple of times. He was a tremendous upgrade over rookie Cyril Richardson.

I'm no expert at offensive line coaching, but something I noticed about him this year is that he seems to be playing too fast and too small.
When Wood totally flubbed his shotgun snap to Orton a few games ago, it was because he was over anticipating the pass rush.
Wood looks smaller than last year.

Dude's lost weight, maybe too much and that's why he's playing too fast?
We need Hogs, not Hogettes!
Wood needs to eat more pork and beans! With mashed potatoes, extra gravy, pot roast beef topped with caramelized onions, and roasted bison meat.
Thanksgiving is coming soon. Why not get a head start?
!uc* the turkey.
Go Bills.
