    We should be VERY concerned about this Offense...

    Particularly the line. I know I've been *****ing about it for some time now, but I think finally some of you can start to fully realize how horrible they are. They cannot protect anything. They can't push a pile. They let guys run right past them into the backfield. They open no holes for any of our guys to run through/escape pressure

    2 games into the season, and the only TD the Bills have scored was a flat pass to an eligible backup Lineman.

    0 Tds for McGahee, and we have had the ball in the redzone on several occasions.

    0 Tds and very few catches for Evans/Moulds.

    You could tell today that Losman was rattled. He had no time to throw, and when he made throws they were off - a sign of a QB who is trying to make something out of nothing knowing he's gonna get creamed if he doesn't get rid of it quickly.

    I hate to say it, but this potentially could be one of the worst offesnes in franchise history if they keep playing like this.

    To be fair, the O-Line did a good job of protecting Losman and opening holes for McGahee last week. Don't forget that McGahee averaged over 5/ypc and Losman was only sacked once last week. They faced one of the best defenses in the league on the road, and this is what happens sometimes. I think the offense will struggle this year, but they will eventually get it going better than they were today.

      I think "one of the worst in franchise history" is maybe getting a little crazy, but I agree that we definitely have some problems. You know who else I am disappointed with? Willis McGahee. He looks slow and uninspired. I remember him once saying that his goal was to never let ONE guy bring him down, and I just don't see the effort this year from this guy. You know? We can't blame everything on the line.

        8 QTRs into the season and none of our "studs" have gotten in the endzone yet. I think that should be cause for concern.

          I didn't watch the game, but on the surface I would have to agree. 34 yds for WM is simply unacceptable, as is 1 catch a piece for Moulds/Evans.

          I said from day 1 that the oline would be the downfall of this team, and unless someone can tell me another reason why we have been so lame on O, I'll continue that prediction.

            I agree bro. I'm just saying that it is still a little too early to be going on with this worst in franchise history stuff.
