Doc Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Good move. Brohm had been throwing to Hardy (and Justin Jenkins) in practice so he's got to be more comfortable with him than anyone else. Also Reed is an UFA at the end of the year and I can't see him coming back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Reed is an UFA at the end of the year and I can't see him coming back. Too bad about Reed. He is an excellent blocker for a WR, probably developed those skills while he was a running back. He runs decent routes, but drops a ton of balls. We need someone more reliable in the slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know T.O. is running the team, but is it that obvious now? He makes announcements that Fewell should be making? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonInBuffalo Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Fewell responded to a question in his press conference, saying that the fact that Brohm was throwing to Hardy in practice in previous weeks would have no impact on whether Hardy gets on the field on Sunday. If Hardy does play in 3 WR sets, I'm assuming that most of the time TO would be in the slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spartacus Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Hardy is tall so he is good. Actually very tall, so he is very good Don't understand why inability to run routes, get off the line and catch the ball have kept him anchored to the bench when he is so tall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleed Bills Blue Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 He...drops a ton of balls. Not the same guy I've been watching the last several years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkyMannn Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 He hadn't had drop problems for awhile now. He and TE had a pretty good thing going for a spell. You got a short memory. This past Sunday he dropped "right in the numbers" a 4th down throw at the 3 yard line, potential TD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bills1960 Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 I like this. Give guys a shot that haven't had one all year. Now, we need Stevie Johnson to get in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just shocked that someone in the front office is not clamoring for this guy to see the field. Or, perhaps those that thought he was "all that" know that he isn't, and would just be plain embarrassed that yet another Modrak scouted player has not produced. At all. As in '0'.

We seem to forget early last year in Jacksonville. Say what you want but he did show some potential.....Maybe coaches are just horrilbe at making it happen.

Say what you want but he did show some potential.....Maybe coaches are just horrilbe at making it happen. Maybe. But if the guy was so good, his play would drive him to actually being on the field. HE's been supposedly doing nothing since he was injured besides rehabbing and (hopefully) studying. Conditioning back to football condition. Now that he's been active for the past 7 weeks or so, he has yet to see the field. Why? Can't just be coaching. And 1 game hardly makes a star, sir. Merry Christmas. May we get the new front office we so desperately need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May we get the new front office we so desperately need. Are you going to bench TO or Evans the last 6 weeks for someone just getting off the PUP list? It may of taken him 5-6 weeks after rehab to make it to playing shape. I never said that one game in Jacksonville made him a star either. I said it showed promise. What people fail to realize is 1. Poor coaching(Bills run first system has gotten them NO WHERE) 2. Poor Playcalling(POOR SYSTEM) 3. Less the average QB 4. Being sent on IR late last year 5. He was a rookie last year 6. PUP 7. TO and L Evans are this year WR's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was only one catch and I see catches like that every Saturday in my co-ed touch football league I play in...wasnt that big of a deal. More importantly were the easy azz catches he kept dropping after that game, the lazy and terrible route running, etc. Not saying he hasnt learned and grown from there, but he was less than impressive last year and just looked lost out there.

Are you really going to compare back yard wannabees to the NFL.......Who else on the field that day would of made that catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
