Here's something positive!

"Although the Bills have given up no fewer than two sacks in each game, the offensive line has done a fine job this season and certainly has become a focal point for an optimistic future. Rookie ORT Mike Williams, second-year ORG Marques Sullivan and second-year OLT Jonas Jennings have all "steadily progressed," according to Bills OL coach Ronnie Vinklarek. "Their communication has improved, their cohesiveness has improved and their understanding of the game has improved," Vinklarek told PFW. "All those sound like little clichés, but they’re so vital, because you can see things early in the year that happened to them that don’t happen now." Veteran newcomers Trey Teague, who switched to center, and Marcus Price, who filled in at both OT spots for a few games while Jennings and Williams were injured, garnered praise from Vinklarek for their poise, knowledge and football savvy. "I just think the attention to detail has been unbelievable," Vinklarek said. "The learning curve has been progressive; it’s been good. The enthusiasm has been tremendous. I think the athleticism is just overall better." "

I also think the OL really stepped up this year and look forward to it improving even further next!

I agree with that article completely. They could still stand to pick up a little help next season. IMO, the current line is filled with great run blockers and the Bills could benefit from some more pass blocking skills. ~ Either that or Gilbride could start running the ball more.

I like our young line and I think they will only get better!!!

You hit the nail right on the head.

Yeah, while it doesn't come right out and say it, pass blocking must have gotten far worse during the season and it must only be the run blocking the Vinklarek is talking about...

It's implied!

LOL

[Earthquake Enyart]

All the sacks are Drew's fault. That's what is being implied.

[WG]

Oh no EE, none of them are his fault! We all know that through the indoctrination that we all received as Bledsoe Bills fans.

They're all the fault of the improving OL don't ya know. Especially most of the key ones.

[justasportsfan]

I still say all of Drew's sacks are Rob's fault!!!!

[WG]

Well that's a given...

[justasportsfan]

wys, Rob is starting this weekend, do you have your jersey for that game?

[WG]

I've got my Rob Johnson bib and knife, fork and spoon set!

Oh yeah, and my Rob Johnson first aid kit that EE sent me for Christmas! That's in case I get a boo-boo by running into the wall while trying to get into the kitchen to check on my wings!

Funny thing is, Brad Johnson is out and watch Rob light up the scoredboard against the bears. Come playoff , they will opt to use Rob instead of Brad and then they will lose. Can anyone say deja vu'?

i just heard about it on ESPN. ESPN has that 4th down show in Sportcenter where John Clayton and the other guy discuss topics and each would have a different opinion. On rob johnson, for the first time, the two agreed that he would lose the game for the team if he starts, they said that he has no pocket presence and that if he starts in the playoffs, they would exit after the first game :)

Rob Johnson won the playoff game at Tennessee...........it was the special teams that lost it!
