eball Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 In the fourth quarter of the Pats game, the Bills stopped a third-and-7 situation when rookie safety Donte Whitner recognized a blown assignment before the snap and told rookie linebacker Keith Ellison to cover the tight end instead of blitzing, as he was supposed to do. Ellison covered the tight end - not great but well enough to force an incompletion in the end zone - and the Bills forced a field goal. "He bailed us out on that one," Fewell said of Whitner. From this article on the front page. That's a rookie, in his first live NFL regular season action, in case anyone forgot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotStuckonStupid Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Whitner was a modrak pick no doubt about it. IIRC modrak did the same thing when he was in Philly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VABills Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 I remember the play but for some reason I thought it was Simpson who called it out, guess I was wrong. But yeah I thought it was a damn good heads up play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdh1 Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 he is so much better then wire and bowens.... 781592[/snapback] Does Bowens sit when he is healthy? I was at the Carolina preseason game and he looked really good till he got hurt. Not a bad place to be, depth at safety! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a rookie, in his first live NFL regular season action, in case anyone forgot. 781569[/snapback] I love Marv telling the media to wait and see which pick pans out better. He handles the media great, especially as a GM. This organization good be really good, really soon. There is alot of wisdom and experience up top now. Playoffs would be a great motivator for next year, and not bad for the 4 youngest team in the league. Only '2' players over 30, and one out for the season.
