ICE Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 Gave his first ever Pro TD Ball to Sheldon out of appreciation for his blocking? Guys Combine this with his fire and desire and we have our RB for quite some time. Talk about class. http://buffalonews.com/editorial/20041103/...?tbd1014624.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HtownBillsFan Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 I was sitting in the endzone that he scored the td in and thought "what class, first td and he gives it to his blocker". Hopefully we see a lot more of this for years to come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeInRoch Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 Does this mean that maybe TD isn't as bad as some people make him out to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeRay Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 yeah, it was classy... and although I'm going to go off topic slightly... I remember a time when QBs and RBs used to lavish their Offensive linemen with gifts or meals or just something in recognition for what they do week in and week out. Too bad I don't see that from Drew. The O line is not one of the team's strengths, but damnit, they repeatedly face 8 and 9 man fronts and "cheating up" defenders because of Drew's inability to make quick decisions, correct decisions, and accurate throws. You would think that Drew would at least throw them a bone once and a while... I mean last week, there were no sacks. Now, I don't know if Drew did or said something to recognize the O line publicly or behind the scenes, but I would hope that he propped them up a little bit and recognized/rewarded them cuz those guys have taken a lot of heat over the past two seasons. The recognition stuff goes a long way to building unity and confidence in a team. So, while you're tipping your hat to Willis... which is deserved, I'm gonna tip my hat to the offensive line... they've got one hell of a cross to bear as long as Drew is at QB.

This was verified by AVP. It was mentioned because they gave up 0 sacks this past weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was mentioned because they gave up 0 sacks this past weekend. Duly noted. Thanks, I wasn't aware of that. It is good that Drew is doing that. I don't tip my hat much, if any, to Drew... but if this is the case, I'll make an exception and applaud himfor doing the right thing. One question... what if the Drew gets sacked, say twice in one game and both sacks are his fault. Do the O linemen still get rewarded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeRay Posted November 3, 2004 Share Posted November 3, 2004 DeeRay your posts are getting old find a new subject or something. Yo Kotex... once again "bite me". What get's old is your continual Bledsoe apologies and clear lack of knowledge of the game and everything else in general. I'll bet you were a Jeff George apologist too.
