eball Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Hauschka is 32, a seasoned vet who's seen it all and kicked in two Superbowls. He has a ring. Good choice. Also sends a clear message of how important the Bills view ST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMDman Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I'm not sure they will be using Hyde on special teams. He is the starting safety in a thin group. [/quote/] Good point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBonhamRocks Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 ^ Plus, re: Hyde and special teams, one would think with the amount of back-up players we are supposedly keeping on the roster for their special teams ability that we would not need to have starters on offense or defense also playing special teams.

Kirby Jackson Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I was expecting Ducasse, Yates on offense, Gaines and Leonard Johnson on defense and Tolbert on ST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyC81 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Any former Jets in that group? Surprised there aren't any ex-Panthers. 4 of 5 were on team before regime change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GETTOTHE50 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 sure, good choices. i guess tyrod had to get one since he's QB. though, i still dont care for the concept of 'captains' in the NFL. It makes sense in hockey, in the NFL i dont see it as important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Shocked they didn't name Dareus as a captain since he has the most suitable hat. well played sir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frostbitmic Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 FYI: Team Captains were not selected by McDermott. They were elected by the players. So that's why Vlad wasn't elected Captain .... ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes sense in hockey, in the NFL i dont see it as important. TT was voted by his peers for his leadership,he just happens to be the QB. If Peterman was the starter I doubt he gets voted captain.

Scott7975 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 The only surprise is Hauschka. I'm wondering how often a K gets named a permanent captain. And since (I think) McDermott takes this seriously, I'm guessing he's also some kind of locker room presence? Probably quite a bit. Special teams captain. Moorman was named captain as well. Of course at a time he may have been the best player on the team lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I'm very glad TT was voted captain. Typically if the starting QB isn't a captain there is a reason behind it. He's almost always the leader of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 @ChrisBrownBills Kyle, Tyrod, Lorenzo, Eric Wood & Hauschka are the team captains for #Bills this year. Not surprising about first three - they are on cover of annual yearbook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Arnold Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I'm very glad TT was voted captain. Typically if the starting QB isn't a captain there is a reason behind it.

YoloinOhio Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 Like when EJ Manuel wasn't voted team captain going into the 2014 season. and I noticed Blake Bortles isn't a captain down in Marrone-land. Kyle Orton on standby in Jax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big C Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I'm very glad TT was voted captain. Typically if the starting QB isn't a captain there is a reason behind it. He's almost always the leader of the team. Absolutely. We can debate his ability as a QB all day, but TT is the kind of guy the staff wants on their squad. Hard worker, leader, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
