26CornerBlitz Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 (edited) Alonso again up for NFL Rookie of Week He’s been nominated before, but Bills LB Kiko Alonso is again up for the Pepsi Next NFL Rookie of the Week. The only difference this time around is he’s got some stiff competition. Alonso had a career-high 22 tackles in the overtime loss to the Bengals, which we looked at in greater depth on Monday. You can vote for Alonso here as many times as you like. The winner will be announced at week’s end. Alonso already won this award once back in Week 4 with his two interception game in Buffalo’s win over Baltimore. Alonso currently leads the league with 66 tackles and is tied for the league lead in interceptions with four.

mrags Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Lol. Not only is he gonna be the DROY, he's gonna be a pro bowler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Lol. Not only is he gonna be the DROY, he's gonna be a pro bowler. Why would he leave the NFL to become a bowler? That doesn't make sense. Here's the thing: he had his worst game of the year BY FAR on Sunday, and yet, he's STILL up for Rookie of the Week. If he's that good when bad, I can't wait until he's great. GO BILLS!!!

BuffaloBill Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Hard to say he is deserving this week. He may have had a good individual game but how much of that was due to or contributed to a horrible showing by the defense. I find it hard to support his selection this week. No doubt that he may. Be one of the best draft picks in years though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be one of the best draft picks in years though. regardless of the horrible showing on defense, 22 tackles is a s%#t ton of tackles. I don't care how bad you played. As a LB, 22 tackles means your in the play a lot. If he was a DB and had that many I'd say he was burned a lot. But he's not. Gotta respect the 22.

BigPappy Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I hate getting political but, I say we vote for Kiko in something else.... Kiko for President? Kiko for State Senate? Kiko for Congress? With all the a$$ kick'en he is doing on the field, we could use him in office. Maybe he could get Capital Hill to surrender! BigPappy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiko uses an 8 lb plastic kids bowling ball at the request of bowling arena's due to pins not being able to withstand the force of a regulation weighed ball.

UpperDeck Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Yeah, Kiko had a horrible game. Let's bring back Kelvin Sheppard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDD Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Kiko's play has exceeded everyone's expectations. He's has been a beast. I just wonder how long his undersized frame can take a pounding playing MLB in the NFL especially given with how aggressive he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDD Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 (edited) dont start Sorry dawg. We're just all so desperate for the Bills to build something for the next 3-4 years. Can we just keep inactive until we are legit superbowl contenders then let him sick 'em? Edited October 15, 2013 by DDD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valid point, but I wasn't counting on him doing a-lot of talking. Just a-lot of a$$ kicking until they submit to the #ledgendofkiko BigPappy Edited October 15, 2013 by BigPappy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Hindsight Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Yeah, Kiko had a horrible game. Let's bring back Kelvin Sheppard. Nobody is saying that. He didn't have his best game plain and simple. I hope it was an exception and frankly I expect him to be his crazy dominant self again next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
