Byron Bell Appreciation Thread

[links18]

Do we need one of these? That holding call against him was questionable. He didn't give up any sacks did he?

Honestly, it seemed like the offense got better once he came in. I think Tyron's injury is really bothering him.

 

[CWR]

Sign me up, Im feeling generous.

 

[8FOR!3]

Seemed like he did an admirable job

 

[dwreck27]

Sure.

Tyron has been gutting it out, but it might be better to take a week off. He's really banged up

 

[CF74]

He’s serviceable

 

[robbieruff]

Big boy definitely battled. Bravo!

 

[Carson]

Well, he sure as hell is an improvement over Green!

 

[Kaiser]

We really need to upgrade at swing tackle next year, but Bell didn't get Prescott killed in this game so he exceeded expectations.

I had no problems with Bell's play or the way they handled things once he entered. Night and day compared to Chaz Green from what I could tell. My problem was they took Alf out after he was crushing it for 4+ drives, got away from pounding the football. He was gashing the Raiders.....Linnehan is Pass Happy.....I don't like that.

I think Oakland’s scheme had a lot to do with that.

They learned like other teams, we don’t pass well. Safety high over Dez, double down Beasley and stack the box.

Maybe they would eventually stop it but it always seems like if they stop Alf for 1 yard or even Smith for 1 yard, Linnehan gets scared and starts going "Empty set". I am a "keep after it" guy. Let them stop it 2 times in a row for 3 or more series. Then lets talk about throwing but that never happens, Linnehan starts throwing after one bad run play. ALWAYS. He's pretty predictable. Take note.

I hope Tyron’s okay. But Byron acquitted himself well.

 

[Pabst]

The holding call against him was pretty suspect, but he definitely held on a couple other plays, so I guess it evens out.
