Reiff even said he feels more comfortable at LT so I wouldn't say RT is his "natural position".Maelstrom88 wrote:Remmers is awful. I'd prefer it if they would start Hill at LT and move Reiff back to his natural RT spot. If Remmers starts they will be lucky to get 3 step drop passes out without giving him help. The run d was also concerning as others have said.

Re: Preseason Game 1 at Buffalo Bills
I'm not predicting gloom and doom, I was just disappointed that Bradford played ultra conservative. It was very disappointing to see.

Re: Preseason Game 1 at Buffalo Bills
But like I said above, first team offenses and defenses aren't going to reveal a ton. It's a very basic playbook that I'm sure they are using. So I honestly take it with a grain of salt.PurpleMustReign wrote:I'm not predicting gloom and doom, I was just disappointed that Bradford played ultra conservative. It was very disappointing to see.

On a positive note, I got to meet Spielman at the game last night!! As well as Andre Patterson, Adam Zimmer, Ben Leber, Wobby, etc. My buddy that lives in buffalo landed us 2 pregame field passes. Probably one of the coolest experiences of my life. I would upload the picks but I'm not sure how to

Re: Preseason Game 1 at Buffalo Bills
My point was, Sam, with the first team, looked bad, and the backups looked better. If Sam doesnt shine it WILL be a long year. Too early to tell now but Zimmer was right in his post game interview.Pondering Her Percy wrote: Lol just because Keemun and Heinecke looked good against the 2nd and 3rd team we're already assuming it's going to be a long season?

2 sacks, offensive penalty to kill a drive and a 3rd and 12 and Bradford throws a 5 yd check off.CbusVikesFan wrote: Yep, let's show what we're going to do right out of the gate and throw away the whole season after the first PRESEASON game. Never mind any adjustments.
It was a sh_ t show with the first team. I'm sure things will improve in the preseason, but that wasn't to encouraging and no since sugar coating it.

Re: Preseason Game 1 at Buffalo Bills
The backups are also playing against....the backups. I get what you're saying with Bradford but saying the backups looked better carries no weight in the preseason. That's like saying Stacy Coley is our best WR just because how he played last night against.....the backups. I'm taking this game with a grain of salt. As you said, it's way too early to tell. We all know Sam needs to play well. He has for the last year and a half. I'm not overly worriedPurpleKoolaid wrote: My point was, Sam, with the first team, looked bad, and the backups looked better.

Re: Preseason Game 1 at Buffalo Bills
The only thing worse than the pass blocking is Photobucket. Half the forum has dead avatars! Reiff and Remmers stunk up the joint and we dropped almost 100 million dollars on them. I understand the Bills have a good defense but Bradford had one or two good chances. I'd rather see him dump it off than get buried in a preseason game.
Also, VINTAGE VMB here. Our defense almost shut the starters out and only gave up ten points in a game we won but people are already saying we are a 4 win team. Never change, guys!

Re: Preseason Game 1 at Buffalo Bills
Reiff didn't play so unless he dropped a huge crap in the bathroom he didn't stink up anything. And last I checked it was the first preseason game and Buffalo has a pretty darn good 1st string D line.Hunter Morrow wrote:The only thing worse than the pass blocking is Photobucket.

Re: Preseason Game 1 at Buffalo Bills
Wouldn't it be "tits" if we got through pre-season without any major injuries?
