... and precisely why aren't we playing Hardy?

Really, just about the post of the year. All these posters B word about the front office, 7-9 records, no playoffs for the decade, etc.......... but when you try to assess responsibilty for that, every player has a teflon coating. "Oh it can't be his fault and you have to give him more years" while all over the league are players that contribute now.

 

Probably the exception is TO as everyone is free to pile on him, and in reality he is the ONLY VISIBLE player who wnts to win badly and now. The rest wait only on pay day

And yet all over the league there are also great players that took some time to develop. Not all players step right in and contribute right away

 

As for TO, your joking right. He might say the right words for you to believe that he cares about winning as a team, but you only have to watch him when he is on the field and knows the play isnèt going to him to know he only cares about TO. TO is here cause he needed to show the league he can behave and get one more big payday. TO is not a leader or a team first guy, he just knows how to say the right things to help himself look better

the front office gets the grief for sucky players- because they thought they were good when they brought them in

 

our players sucks because our front office can't find and evaluate NFL talent, especially on the OL

The game I seen must of been his good game then. Oh wait it was Miami. Reporters must be blind too.

Who are all these reporters that you are talking about? Everything I have read suggests Hardy has struggled mightily. I also went to a bunch of games last year and didn't see him getting open. In fact, the passes that went his way usually seemed forced. The team made a definite effort to get him the ball at times.

There were several articles published last year after the games.....Never mind..not going to search for them either. Edwards played lights out last year so it must of been the rookies fault.

James Hardy looked bad because he was not ready for the NFL. Whether he gets there or not is the unknown. I haven't heard too many observers that thought he looked good last season. The coaching staff really cut into his playing time as the season progressed. I tend to think it wasn't because he was constantly open.

Fewell has shown that he's willing to shake up the lineup to get the players he feels give us the best chance to win games on the field.

 

I suspect that a big part of the problem is that Hardy does not cover kicks and punts on special teams, and he isn't good enough to send Evans, Owens, or Reed to the bench. Particularly with Parrish gobbling up a 4th WR slot on gameday, your 5th WR almost absolutely has to be a guy who is covering kicks and punts.

 

Presuming that T.O. goes elsewhere this offseason, Hardy might suddenly find himself much higher up the depth chart by default next year...

You know.... you are right......You know with the awsome game plan they had and qb play the bills had last year....any WR would be successfull......Look at TO

 

How dare a roookie suck his first year in this system
