    Actually the player the fanbase respected and most WANTED the Texans to trade was JJ Watt last year, they wanted him to end his career with a winner.  Watson on the other hand is the future, he goes the entire teams could be lucky to win a game next year.  

     

    Is that to say that the hatred they have for the FO now extends to Watson because he no longer wants to deal with it?

     

    Are those the sentiments being expressed by Texans' fans?

    We know they don't have to trade him, right?

     

    I think they do. 

     

    QB is unlike any other position in football, it's the face of the franchise as we know. I don't think the Texans' front office would like to be known as the FO that oddly disrupted the cohesion of the team and refused to let cut ties with a player who has done his part in the Houston community and on the field, and has a fanbase that respects him and probably understands his position of wanting to start over somewhere else.

    January 4th, same time as Stills.

     

     "I think he played with Josh in Wyoming" is a bit of an understatement.  In Gentry's Sr year 2016, he was Josh's "Guy".  1326 yds from Josh, 14 TDs, and enough highlights to get signed to the Bears PS as an UDFA.

     

    You know that TD Josh threw low and away to Diggs to go ahead in the AZ game?  There's a clip of that same throw from Allen, wearing gold and brown, to Gentry.

     

     

    I think Josh Allen's talent makes him the equivalent of a point guard who makes just average players look good; those qualities plus Gentry's familiarity with Allen could have him performing better in a Bills uni.

    Like the way he finds holes. 

    Dislike his lack of breakaway speed.

    Like his blocking.

    Dislike his tendency to fumble.

    Like the way he picks up yards in chunks.

    Dislike that he can't seem to find the end zone. 

     

    Is he a legit starter?

    Is he "just a guy"

    Is he a victim of poor run blocking?

     

    Enlighten me.  

     

    If you can't insert any back from the past five rosters into the lineup and get the same production, than he can't be just a guy.

     

    He needs to work on the fundamentals of securing the ball, but "just a guy"?

     

    What do your eyes tell you?

     

    Do you really need him removed from the lineup again to realize how important he is to the offense? 

     

    If nothing else, the timing of this thread is bizarre, considering he was the team's leading rusher and receiver out the backfield.

     

  5. Daboll's kept the fire burning on offense, Frazier hasn't on defense.

     

    The spirit of the entire defense is not the same from seasons past; the same foggy-headed unit that can't stop the run is also out there defending the pass.

     

    It's a trickle-down effect the way I see it. 

     

    Crazy to associate Tre D's contribution this season on a contract that he earned from years of hard work and dedication throughout his career.

    He may be the best 1 technique the Bills have. There’s your clarification. He’s not better than Oliver. You’re not getting double talk. Zimmer still is not good, but he did make an amazing play. Let it go instead of trying to continue to keyboard warrior. 

    Agreed on Edmunds lol. He’s been shaky at best. 

     

    Here we go. Lol

     

    How about you give our players a chance before dogging them out.

    He picked Aaron Rodgers off twice in a game

     

    I don't doubt it, I just don't remember it.

     

    It'll be hard for me to forget Zimmer's potentially game-saving play against Bellichick.

    He's easy to like and made a huge play but I think you've got to look at him in the mold of someone like Bacarri Rambo from seasons past. A guy who made some splash plays with his limited opportunities and built some notoriety as a result, but should be little more than a stopgap based on the entirety of his play.

     

    I didn't even remember Bacarri Rambo was on the team and can't remember one splash play that he made; I don't know if you're referring to a game-ending play as a splash play, but even if you are, he's brings more than that because he brings high energy and effort on nearly every play, if not every play.

     

    I'm never left with the feeling that he's taking plays off or that his play is being dictated by which team has momentum.

     

    Not suggesting that he should make the NFL All-Defense team, but I do think he's heck of a find.

    Everyone has an opinion, but it doesn’t mean your’s is correct. Video evidence and game analysis has proven that this guy hasn’t been good.
     

    Zimmer made the play of his career. It won the Bills a game they badly needed. He honestly doesn’t need to make a play ever again as he’s already exceeded any expectations ppl had for him in a Bills uniform. 
     

    He also may be the best they have at that position, but it still doesn’t mean he’s good. 

     

    Wait a minute, if he's been as bad as you say he has, then wouldn't he need to make a ton more impact plays like the one he made vs. the Pats to offset the myriad of bad plays that you have on him in your vault? He's already exceeded expectations based on what, if you're not acknowledging the pluses that he's shown, minus the forced fumble on Cam?

     

    How could he be the best the Bills have at DT without being any good? You'd be suggesting that Ed Oliver, for one, is chop liver at that point. 

     

    Feel like I'm getting double-talk from a person whose hot take on Zimmer was shredded this past Sunday especially, but is dead-set on maintaining his stance to save face. 

     

    Video evidence shows that Zimmer is always hustling trying to make a play, and using his brute strength to harass the quarterback and help at slowing the ground attack.

    He made the play of his career. I’m ecstatic that the Bills won and I love him for it. Bump away, but it doesn’t mean that Zimmer is good. Since you’re too lazy to go back through the thread and find the videos posted I’ll find them and bump it back to you. 

    Here you go, Sally 

     

     

    standby I’ll find more 

     

    You finally posted a response a whole seven days later, but I'm the lazy one. Lol

     

    Why would I go through this thread to prove your point when my opinion was established from watching the same game these clips were pulled from?

     

    Zimmer's physical strength and athleticism is undeniable, so I'm confident that the coaching staff will find ways to utilize that to help this defense get better as the season goes on.

    I said it too.. And I bumped another thread about it too.. Would I give him a 4 year $50M contract? No. But for the $600k or whatever he’s getting paid is music to my ears.. He’s been our best lineman at times!

     

    He is so overlooked it's crazy, because he's in on so many plays; he's consistently pushing back the guy(s) blocking him and he strong enough to hold up at point of attack.

     

    I think he's a real gift to the D-line.
