Byron Bell

[jarhead]

Not much different than Jeff Otah.

There is when it comes to run blocking

[panthernation23]

this guy is not good for a starter, he holds litteraly every play. i dont even want to think about how many penelties this guy has by himself alone. he gets beat almost every play as well.

im sorry but this line hasn't played that great the last few weeks, going back to tennessee.

They faced Det and Indy.....Det has the best pass rushing DL in the NFL and Indy has the best pass rushing DE duo in the NFL.

Tyler Brayton is one of the best pass rushers in the NFL?

Pretty sure he was talking about Freeney and Mathis

I'm a bell supporter, but I found this little tidbit from an article on PFF to be quite interesting:

On the other side of the line, Byron Bell (-16.6) has done his best to compete with the likes of Levi Brown at the bottom of our tackle grades. Bell has, in just five starts this season, given up four sacks, two hits and 12 pressures. Did we mention the eight penalties in the past four weeks? That kind of performance just won’t get the job done this Sunday.

That was before the lions game last week.

thoughts, concerns, issues?

I think bell was the one who blew the block on the FG block.

Looks like you thought wrong:

Amazing that you people will look to find whatever you want to suit your biases.

Both have 5 sacks, hardly the best. Also Brayton was playing allot yesterday so thats why I was saying that.

[Floppin]

They both have 6 sacks, but sacks are hardly the end all be all stat for DE's contrary to popular opinion. They are, by all regards, one of the premier tandems in the NFL.

bell sucks

I would say a huge chuck of those bad stats came in his first few starts.

I don't know what other's see in Bell.. he has got to be one of the worst starting OT's in the game, and I think this link proves it. Those of you who think Otah is not much better than Bell are uninformed. Guy's like Otah do not grow on tree's.. a guy that size with his athletic ability is very rare. Bell is nowhere near Otah as a football player, hands down. Otah has had a knee injury that has kept him out for 2 years.. it's not like he is injury prone.. it has just been one nagging issue. Let's let him heal this knee, and be 100% next year, and you will see the Otah of old.. a run blocking nightmare for teams, and an adequate enough pass blocker. If Otah can not get that knee 100%, then we need to cut bait and go in another direction, because clearly Bell is not the answer.
