    Re: I Hate Our OL

    The bills got their running game going at the end of last year

    what did they do then that they aren’t doing now?

    i was hoping the kromer addition would booster that seeing the success they had running the ball (albeit with different personnel) the last time he was here. Thoughts?
    I came.
    I saw.
    I conquered.

      You can't make Chicken Pie out of Chicken Poop.

      Plus, the Nevada heat can make someone stupid within 6 months.

        I certainly didn't think of it prior to yesterday so I can't be too harsh on somebody else that didn't, but considering the conditions maybe they should have rotated the olinemen like they do the defense. Better to have to deal with a little bit of discontinuity than risking somebody's life in those conditions.

        On second thought, maybe I can be harsh on the professionals that get paid to be forward-thinking and creative, but apparently aren't.

          They had starters playing a whole game.

          Seriously not sure they had enough OL left to rotate them well.

            Who did you want them to rotate in? Guys in the concession stand?

              They could have pulled up another offensive lineman from the practice squad and started the rotation from the beginning. Even with the eight they dressed they could have done a rotation out of the gate.

                Was there anybody that we could of deactivated yesterday to make room for another OL? Pretty much everybody had to play due to the heat injuries.

                  I haven't seen the snap counts yet but considering priorities Moss, Cook, TJones or Matakevitch come to mind without thinking too hard.

                      Moss had our best run and Cook had his best game yet. I’m not opposed to Jones or Matakevitch, but McDermott will never do that.

                        How the hell can we be favorites to win the SB when we can't even get a yard on the ground behind our OLine? People are hoping Beane notices this season???????

                          Beane hasn't noticed before.

                          He won't this year either.

                          Beane has always fundamentally undervalued the importance of the 5 player OL.

                          Unfortunately, that will not change going forward.

                            It’s early in the season.

                            It was friggin hot.

                            Any given Sunday…

                            I’m not at all worried.

                              They wouldn't all be inactive, just one to make room for another lineman. Could be Moss or Cook. Who played special teams when Kumerow was ruled out?

                              They've always gone light at RB. I don't think one single run in three games makes Moss a 'gotta have' on game day.
