  1. Thank you. A post that recalls history accurately. Not a pass rusher, but tough on the run. He was a solid tackle for the Chargers for years.
  2. Right about Tasker, I mean what did Jim Kelly know about WRs. Kelly was also reported the bet any DB in camp and practice that they couldn't cover Tasker. Also praised his hands. But yeah, Kelly didn't know crap about WRs.....jeez...
  3. Byrd got the most from his abilities and played deep safety reasonably well, in his youth. However I have innumerable plays etched in my brain of where he was late on deep assignments. I remember him getting tagged, signing, and then playing the platar faciitus card. When he bolted, it was don't let the door hit you on the way out. He got hurt his first year in NO, and then sucked badly for two more years. Slow slow slow, especially by the end. Left a bad taste behind they way he played it
  4. Better suited for Faux News.
  5. Has anyone a memory? In his rookie year preseason, he played rather poorly at RT. It was hoped he would push Mills to the bench but he was outplayed by Mills by a decent margin. I wouldn't rule out the possibility of him moving to RT, but I have my doubts.
  6. Sometimes it's best to sit quietly and let people think of you as a fool, than to open your mouth and prove them right.
  7. It began with the 98 "just give it to them" game against the Pats. It went downhill after that. He was the poster child for incompetence.
  8. Frazier just seems a bit too conservative for my tastes as DC. It took McDermott briefly taking over defensive calls to get our D playing decently. Not a fan of Frazier. I don't see him getting another HC job.
  9. A bigger jerk than Gregg Williams would be hard to find. His stint in Buffalo as HC and in New Orleans as "Bounty Hunter" Greggo are all the evidence anyone should need.
  10. Star is no Ted Washington who was one of the best nose tackles to play the game. Yet, he was still a player who did his job against the Pats and it was the remaining DLine and LBs who played horribly. He's not the type to make splash plays but he has been effective even if this board fails to see it.
  11. Bell's running style would be a disaster behind our offensive line. He depends on the line not just maintaining their blocks but to create lanes as well. He would be great coming out of the backfield aiding the passing attack, but McCoy wasn't used well in this role this year by a long shot so I don't see Dabol using Bell well in this regard as well.
  12. It is known to giving Krones patients relief, but hey....
  13. From what I've seen from KW over the years and more so recently, his run stuffing ability has never been great. Where he seemed most effective is when he could penetrate and blow up plays. He also was a sometimes decent pass rusher. I think he could still be effective in a reduced role at a reduced salary but only one more year. With that said, he's been a great Bill and deserves to be able to out on his own terms.
  14. Watching Foster develope has been one of the few bright spots. I would believe he will continue to get better with each additional rep. He at least has shown some ability to separate unlike most of the other Bills receivers. McKenzie is a bit streaky but now that there is some tape on him, he seems less effective of late...and he scares me to death when he receives kicks....bobbles and fumbles anyone?
  15. Don't be so enmored with total yards. Look at how bad the D is in the Red Zone. Points, that's what wins games.
  16. I'm certainly on of the older crowd around here and I like the red uniforms and would go for the combinations there of. These however need to be on a limited basis, 3-4 times a year.
  17. Let us not forget that Dawkins was tried as a RT as a rookie in camp and preseason. He did not do well there.
  18. No you are mistaken. Bottom line is that currently weed is illegal in most places. It's very possible it was more than weed as well. Full disclosure may not ever come forth. Whether the laws are dumb or futile can be debated and decided in the future. We all live in the "now".
  19. Speed, ability to get some yards after the catch, and he has been getting separation. Keep working with this guy. He has all the tools....
  20. To me the overwheming difference was in line play. We got zero pass rush and Allen had to run for his life. Plus horrible run blocking. Our O-line is pitiful. It wasn't great but solid. Glenn should still be with us. Wood was tragic and years of roids had to catch up with Incognito sooner or later. All three were solid to good players. Huge loss.
  21. The last three games must not be for anything else but for next year. It must be preseason time again...
  22. I have become to believe that Bean fell in love with Edmunds measurables and overlooked how raw he was(and still is)
  23. The replays showed that the throw from Allen was on him just after he turned to look for the ball, and that ball was a missile. Jones did not have a good game and should have caught that ball but he not as bad as he detectors say and not as good as he was promised to be.
