Week Two Matchup Podcast Notes

Each week, John Hansen and Adam Caplan break down all the games in the matchup podcast with our NFL Analyst, Greg Cosell. You can listen to the podcasts here, but also read below for an overview of Cosell’s thoughts on Week Two’s matchups.

Buffalo Bills at Green Bay Packers:

Bills:

Green Bay has a great run defense, so the Bills will have to throw the ball, but the Bills have no receivers so that could be an issue.
The Bills are in the process of figuring out their offensive identity.
Bills have to run the ball to be successful.

Packers:

RB Ryan Grant fit what the Packers did very well, and it doesn’t look like RB Brandon Jackson is the kind of runner that will fit for the Packers. Jackson is more of a methodical, measured runner, and it should be interesting to see what Green Bay’s run game looks like.

Miami Dolphins at Minnesota Vikings:

Dolphins:

The Dolphins’ offense is a work in progress and they are trying to figure out what they have in their passing game.
Although QB Chad Henne’s skill set is good, we still need to remember that he doesn’t have much experience under his belt and it shows.

Vikings:

  • 12-Team Mock Draft Review May 10, 2012
    I did another mock draft last night, this one for Lindys magazine, which will be on newsstands in roughly 6-8 weeks. I cannot post the whole draft, but I can quickly review my picks with some thoughts. As usual, I lost interest toward the end and stopped crossing guys off my list, but it was a pretty solid draft, nevertheless. This was a 12-team mock, non-PP […]

  • First Mock Draft of 2012 May 4, 2012
    I am participating in my first 2012 mock draft today (for Rotowire Magazine), so I figured I would share my picks for those interested on the blog, while I am making them. This is a 14-teamer, which kind of stinks because I was really curious to see how a 12-teammer would go, but this will have to do for now. I’m still developing my Draft Plan for this year, […]

  • First look at 2012 SOS April 18, 2012
    I do not know what would be a bigger mistake: to place a high priority on strength of schedule or to ignore it. There was a time when it was a huge factor, but with fewer shutdown defenses versus the run and the pass and with fewer “get well” defenses in the league right now, SOS can be an overrated element. However, SOS is still an element to consider, whic […]
