Correct. He torched a 4.39 speed guy. Did Steve Tasker point that out? Edited August 16, 2018 by Sky Diver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to get touches at Alabama when there is so much talent on the roster, Also hard to get touches when you screw up your route and aren't where you are supposed to be. Does the one that bounced off his chest count as a touch? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dablitzkrieg Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 No, he can't catch and it is probably the most important skill of a WR ? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldmanfan Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 The typical overreaction on both sides of the equation; unfortunately the norm for Bills fans on this site. Is he poised for a huge game? Uh, no. And I say this as one who saw him making the roster just a couple weeks ago. He needs to have a solid game where he shows he won't stop running routes, and where he catches what gets thrown to him. And he needs to outshine the multitude of other receivers on the roster if he has any chance at making the roster or, more likely, the practice squad. Is he trash, as was suggested above? Uh, no. He has speed, he gets open, but needs to do the above to earn a spot. Why everything around here has to be all or nothing, black and white, when in reality the answer is a shade of grey, is completely baffling.

What tracking problems are you talking about? You saw Allen's first pass, right? https://www.buffalobills.com/video/every-josh-allen-pass-preseason-week-1 On the second long Allen pass in the Carolina game, he slowed down and looked back while the ball was in the air, as if he were giving up on the play. Had he not done that, he would have been in position to catch it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Biscuit97 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 I do respect the OP’s Insane level of homerism for Bama. But maybe, just maybe, the guy who had like 400 yards receiving in 4 years in college isn’t a good player??? ? great physical talent but at at some point, that isn’t enough. I think he got overrated on this board because he went to Bama and was fast. If he was from DeVry And had the same college numbers, he won’t be on a nfl roster. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just anti bama bias. Duh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess if he hadn't slowed down he would have outran the ball by a few yards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was coached by our offensive coordinator who probably knows a little bit about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So basically the ball has to be thrown exactly where he is going to be because he can't adjust to the ball? Say 4.39 speed again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atlbillsfan1975 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 He needs to have a good game and then I think he goes to the practice squad. He needs time to see if he can develop all skills needed to make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he would have scored a touchdown had he not insisted in running with his head arched backwards for ~25 yards. He would have scored a second had he kept running his route and not given up on the play. With regard to Seymour. I found it interesting that he was playing so late in the 4th quarter when he started the game with the 1st unit. He had a really poor game overall and clearly his coaches noticed too which is why he was still in the game at that point. Benjamin beat him for his TD, I think he was covering Streater as well on the TD that was called back for OPI. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
