Makes perfect sense, there isn't anything that might have lowered his value since then.

Re: We've got big trouble on the OL.

Can we call our offensive line Little China? Because I really want to change this thread title to Big Trouble in Little China

Re: We've got big trouble on the OL.

I think we might owe the OL a bit of an apology right now. I thought they held their own against a pretty talented front.

Agreed. Bills have one of the best if not THE best front line in football. For having three regular non-starters I think we did pretty well. Can't say Polumbus didn't do well against Mario Williams.

Re: We've got big trouble on the OL.

It's preseason, so I take it all with a grain of salt.

BUT ... seems to me, from what I saw last night, the FO's decision to prioritize Garcon over a RT looked pretty rock solid.

I think once they got going they played well. They were getting crushed in the run game the first series.

I think before we "crown there ass" the new hogs we should let them play an entire regular season game. But much to their credit, the pass protection was outstanding. Gettis surprised me the most on the line, he was getting out there on the scoring drive in run blocking...Polumbus handle Mario in pass protection. The worst play I saw, Monty get crushed once on a run play

Yeah, the Bills D-line is going to be a force to be reckoned with this season and our o-line did a good job against them.

Re: We've got big trouble on the OL.

Those 12 plays our offensive line did wonderful...sigh

We are going to have problems here folks, with little cap room to fix it next season, RG3 will have to wait until 2014 for a very good one.

What happened to Willie Smith. I thought we had something there. Now he is not even third string.

Re: We've got big trouble on the OL.

All in All, I'm real proud of our guys....especially the O-line. Come what may, they handled a formidable group last night!

Still too early to say. I like what I saw pass blocking... not so much in the run game though.

Considering the name of this thread, and some thinking the line was so bad that RG3 shouldn't even play... I think they did pretty good.
