  1.  

    Can you refresh my memory on this with a link or something? I hear this statement from time to time, but don't recall seeing any actual evidence of it.

     

    I'd like to preface by saying that I would be thrilled if EJ shows us tomorrow he has progressed enough to win the starting job, but I do remember him having what I would call "growing pains" along the lines mentioned by Cantankerous.

     

     

    From an Oct '14 La Confora CBS Sports article;

     

     

     

    During a recent loss to San Diego, after sailed balls had put pass catchers in danger, 2014 first-round pick Sammy Watkins stopped short on one ball and sources said at times receivers have been demonstrative and vocal about the errant throws.

    If EJ doesn't deliver tomorrow, I will be hoping its Tyrod for the Indy game.

  2. This is all very frustrating. I was born and raised in Oregon, lived here my entire life. 20+ years of being a Bills fan and I am attached certainly, but can't help salivating watching whats happening 4 hours north of me in Seattle. Carrol has that team motivated and the future is bright. I can understand why those who live in WNY continue to suffer through it, but scarcely understand why I do.

  3. Players move on at somepoint. it happens. How they come and go is different. A 30 something lb coming off an injury has little to do with Stevie. A corner about to get one of the richest deals in the history of NFL defenders is not Stevie. I'll give Greer, but it's a whole different group making the choices. Throwing out names like that's pretty worthless.

     

    It's not like I was blaming the coaches. I listed a few guys who I hated to see go, who also continued to contribute on other rosters. Get some rest, Dude.
