Our line is in good hands. This year was the best they have been in years.

[@e_wood70]

Agreed!

[@bauerpower83]

If this isn't jim kelly's long lost brother wow!! He is in the perfect place.!

[@thebuffalopod]

Might be!

I was so excited when the Bills re-hired Aaron Kromer. I think he is easily a top 5 OL coach in the NFL, and probably more like top 3. His o-lines are consistently good, year in and year out. And he’s coached some of the best blocking o-lines in the NFL.
Glad you’re back coach!

[@byronoaks8755]

I'm so excited we got him he brings a tough identity to our team. You can see how our lineman fire off the line of scrimmage it's beautiful to see

[@brianmucha6426]

Great and fun interview. Mr. Kromer seems like an amazing coach! Go Bills. Eric you were always one of my favorite Bills,good interview!😊

[@thebuffalopod]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@e_wood70]

I appreciate it!

[@philipgibson9091]

Awesome interview. Its crazy the hours the coaches work. Coach Kromer led the best line in quite a long time. Love the podcast!!

[@e_wood70]

Truly is crazy on the hours. Thanks!

[@seanguitarman5594]

We have really made strides on the O-line. Sure you can have a great position coach like Kromer, but you have to have the right personnel, or it won't work. It honestly seems like this iteration may be the best offensive line we've had in years. Toss in the offensive pieces we've added, ...and I can't wait to see what Brady and Josh will do with this unit. Great things, ...I predict. Go 🦬!!!
Also, great interview Eric, ...I've always heard good things about Kromer, but never really got to check him out on a personal level. You will always be my favorite center (unless Sedrick really shines!), jk, jk.... Definitely my favorite Bills offensive lineman, and I love your film breakdowns. More film breakdowns this season please!!! Lol

[@markhayes624]

I thought it was Jim Kelly for a second!

Dude! This was great, thanks! I really wanted to hear from Kromer. Some great info on the game planning side, really cool hearing about the Dallas game and the evolution of the running game. Never heard those Josh stories either, thanks again!

Blue cheese dressing is straight up,, crumbled blue cheese,, check the chunk size,, mayonnaise and just a bit of beer to get it to the right consistency,, we used stale beer but you can put it in straight out of the bottle can whatever,, no weird crap like dill or whatever they're using elsewhere.

[@wnybricky1559]

Rough day today..

[@philipgibson9091]

I wonder if Coach Kromer is still looking to climb the ladder....being an OC. Did he get an interview? Or is he content being OL coach at this point in his life.

[@e_wood70]

Likely past that point now. He had that opportunity but is fine being the OL coach now

[@gjv001]

To me Kromer has a facial resemblance to Jim Kelly.

[@e_wood70]

That’s been said a bunch 😂😂of times

[@sweetspike]

Nobody besides Richie blocked for peterman. Was at the game. Sabotage

[@JoawMebs-im6ix]
