The Wiz Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I love how OVER THE MIDDLE is in all caps. That's a great sign. Yea but that was 3 out of 18 passes that he made. Very "meh". Ask JoeBusBus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Breathing easier today, having read the Rastro Repor(t). I was afraid he pulled a BfNY on us.. Ranks as well, NY Nole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 It was 1" out of reach, not a drop. It would have been a non-issue if Tyrod had thrown it. I have to disagree with Tyrod's "meh" day comment a Buffalo sportscaster made. Here's a list of what Tyrod did today: ---Made 100% of his 4 fade throws to both the L and R corners. ---Made 100% of his 4 red zone passes on the end zone line. ---Threw ridiculous balls to Dez Lewis, Greg Little in Session 6 ---Threw OVER THE MIDDLE to Felton, ---Threw OVER THE MIDDLE to a wide-open Dez Lewis, where he and Powell had rendered Robey/Graham useless. ---Threw OVER THE MIDDLE to Gragg slanting for a TOUCHDOWN. ---Connects far side to Davonte Allen, near side to Goodwin. ---About to be tackled in backfield, takes off and throws over LB head to McCoy for 15+ yards. ---Puts a ball in a place only Salas can catch ---Sweet sideline pass to Hankerson ---Nice swing pass to MCCoy-->TOUCHDOWN ---Little, Salas, and Woods line up, pass to Woods-->TOUCHDOWN Negative plays: ---Ragland moves up to the R of the R-EDGE and would have tackled Tyrod ---Worthy, IK Enemkpali get through to make tackle ---Near-INT by Preston Brown Fantastic to hear! It's everything I was hoping Tyrod would show this offseason, and it sounds like our WR corps is much improved. I'm happy to hear they are using Ragland on the blitz, and that he seems to be not missing a beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler#81 Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 First off - good to have Astro's notes -- he does a great job reporting the action. I also attended today and wanted to share some observations: [*]Felton vs. Gronkowski --- if the Bills plan is to have a devastating lead blocker then Felton should win this competition easily. He is simply the more explosive, powerful (and polished) of the two. While this is probably stating the obvious (since he is a seasoned vet), I think Baby Gronk has a long ways to go to unseat him. I felt sorry for the blocking sled today when Felton stepped in front of it.Go Bills. Finally, NFLN just went to Pittsford -for a measly 3 minute spot. One of the clips they showed was BabyG & Felton hitting the sled. NY Nole nailed it. Felton blew up the sled! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 (edited) Jones has a small rocket attached to his arm, but its erratic. I noticed this in two highlights on the bills AP. His fastball is an absolute rocket. Edited August 1, 2016 by over 20 years of fanhood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrobot Posted August 1, 2016 Author Share Posted August 1, 2016 How's Striker doing? I'm really hoping he makes the team. Great inspiration and attitude so I'm pulling for him! Not one note about Striker, I'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) Great work as usual Astro. Glad to hear the good things about the WR corps.........having Woods and Goodwin in a walk year just has to bring out the best in these two disappointments........Goodwin has some crazy ability, he's not just a 9 route specialist.......looking forward to seeing Dez Lewis in game action a week from Saturday.

Augie Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Great stuff. So happy to hear the WR corps looks solid. That was a big concern. Long way to go.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
