JerseyBills Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Andre Roberts. This guy was one of the key reasons the Jets beat us in Buf. He had 2 monster returns to set the Jets up deep in Buffalo territory. I believe they got 10 points off those drives, he was the X factor that game. We saw that tonight with the O turning a great return into 7 . He's also a big part of the pass game. Just a great signing 13 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSBill Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Yeah, but I think a lot has been said about it. Probably what has been lost in the needed upgrades at WR, o-line, and TE, is the fact the Special Teams last year--all aspects of it--were atrocious. Roberts helps the return game tremendously. The Punting situation is still meh, and I, like other have said, am starting to worry about House Money??? Anyhow, improvement in this area will make a big difference in overall team improvement ..... it really can't be much worse than last year.

Stank_Nasty Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 I definitely had a sense of relief last night knowing that returns might actually mean something this year. When was the last bills punt return? 14? Thigpen vs packers? How about a kick return? Maybe 14 as well? Spiller vs fins? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a great signing Many, many people have been talking about the fact we signed an all-pro returner since we did it. BUT if you want to think you’re the only one that’s noticed that’s okay too.

Scorp83 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Andre Roberts is going to help get us some great field position! But I'm more hype about Christian Wade...I think i wanna keep Christian Wade...give him Tyree Jackson's Spot! ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPS Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 How about ST in general? The blocking on the returns looked good too. Not enough punts by the Bills to judge the coverage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredibly stupid penalty on Sills V block in the back. I haven’t seen the hype about the kid from gitgo. I have him penned in as a cut and will be surprised if he’s picked up for PS. But I've been wrong before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warcodered Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 I mean people talked about it when it happened but it just isn't surprising he's as advertised as a returner. The real interesting thing is if he can get some work done as a WR that I wasn't expecting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocket94 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) I was reading a 2010 Walter Football scouting report. It mentions "Intriguing" downfield speed and sneaky athletic among his variables. I would expect to see him on the offense this season. In the Bills scheme, his play may translate differently than the Jets. Roberts may be a pleasant surprise.
