Augie Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 A week. One week. Are we supposed to think this can make a huge difference, or does it just point out how ridiculous things have been that a week working together is a rare thing? Or both? It's not quite Kelly and Reed, or Montana and Rice. It's more "hello, pleased to see you again". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 A week. One week.

It's not quite Kelly and Reed, or Montana and Rice. It's more "hello, pleased to see you again". I think it depends upon the player. If you watch a lot of the All-22 on Taylor (and IIRC you do), there's one thing that tends to stand out: he doesn't throw with anticipation very often. That changes significantly when Sammy is in the lineup; Tyrod trusts him far more than any other target he's worked with in Buffalo. The ball comes out earlier, and--because of Sammy's ability to get open and ball-tracking skills--there's more real estate on the field to make what Tyrod feels are "safe" throws. The more time the two of them have in practice to gain that comfort level, the more freely Tyrod will operate in the passing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thought was it's just so sad we can think a week is a big deal when other pairings get a year.....or a decade. We've been snake bit. I'm hoping Sammy blows it up with Tyrod throwing (with anticipation) and we are forced to pay Sammy like the perennial All Pro he becomes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roundybout Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 For the record, I talked to a guy at the ticket office and asked him about the weather tonight. He said they are expecting a decision within the hour on what they will do. Probably will push it back if anything because its a "special" practice.

There's no logical benefit of asking him to throw it to the wrong team... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 @TBNSports #Bills kicker Stephen Hauschka having strong camp.

BillsFan17 Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Ah, yes. A new Head Coach. A new Offensive Coordinator. A new playbook. But "Tay Tay" is supposed to have it down one hundred percent because ....... "Baltimore" I knew you were making a serious point !!! This is the guys seventh year in the league and does have familiarity with Dennison. If the offense is just so complex it's causing him to struggle early on... Make excuses all you want but the way Buffalo handled his contract this off season proves us fans aren't the only ones who aren't sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Royale with Cheese Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 I really hope they can get the practice in tonight. I would like to read reports of Taylor throwing well from within the pocket. Tonight will have a controlled scrimmage correct? Bullets flying a little bit tonight...I would like to read that Tyrod did well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
