Hossage Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I am convinced he isnt better than any FB i have seen play recently in the NFL I realize this is insignificant and mean spirited, but look how important Polite is to Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo_Stampede Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I am convinced he isnt better than any FB i have seen play recently in the NFL Who cares, we dont even use a FB much if at all in games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOBILLS78 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Finally someone's found something *new* to B word about! Well met, sir... o_O The kid who runs out and gets the tee after kickoffs sucks! Don't you think the Bills could do better!?!?!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to know what fullbacks you've actually watched play, and the criteria you've used to determine your statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 He seems to be a decent blocker, but look for McCall to be lining up at that position at times this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDD Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Fullback has become an obsolete position in the NFL. Who cares? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PushthePile Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I wouldn't say he sucks but we could use more speed at the position. Listen nucci 40 times aren't everything. That guy gets the tee off the field much faster than his timed speed. You people never seem to amaze me. My biggest complaint is that Jauron has him retrieving tees in the fieldhouse and not in real Buffalo conditions. I also heard that the kid doesn't spend the offseason working out at the Ralph.

todd Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I'd like to know what fullbacks you've actually watched play, and the criteria you've used to determine your statement. 1. Is the FB a buffalo bill? If yes, then he sucks. that's the only criteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hossage Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share Posted May 15, 2009 I'd like to know what fullbacks you've actually watched play, and the criteria you've used to determine your statement. I believe I have seen them all. Maybe I missed a backup or a tight end lined up at the position. Youll be surprised to learn that the criteria I am using to evaluate them is how well they can block. So, in other words, you think I have no idea what I am talking about. Whatever, man. You dont have to answer the question if you dont want to.

Trader Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I am convinced he isnt better than any FB i have seen play recently in the NFL I realize this is insignificant and mean spirited, but look how important Polite is to Miami. He has an uphill climb to make the team given the RB, TE and OL situation. I think the Bills will go with 4 rb's and Oman will be the 4th. I see them using an H back if they need more blocking or bringing in an offensive lineman. Also there is a free agent TE from Alabama (sound familiar) who is not much of a receiver but has a huge reputation as a blocker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hossage Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share Posted May 15, 2009 So, Pushthepile, you figure I just have a weird thing for talking about fullbacks, right? Next time I will start a post on whether my totally anonymous analysis is credible or not. I am sure it will be a barrel of greased lightning. We could also talk about the Bills, if you guys want.

Also there is a free agent TE from Alabama (sound familiar) who is not much of a receiver but has a huge reputation as a blocker. I can see them keeping four backs too. I just dont see any of our guys being effective as H backs. Another factor is how many receivers they will want to carry, given that the position just got deeper. I was surprised that they went out and replaced Darian Barnes, considering how little he was on the field. Mcintyre was used even less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heitz Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I wouldn't say he sucks but we could use more speed at the position. Speed? Speed!? PLAYOFFS!?! Your an idiot. You have obviously never been part of the "game behind the game" as those of us who have imagined it, call it. The tee shagger. The down marker turner. The Gatorade Hydration Specialist. The little people that make the game tick... What we need at this position is SIZE, not speed. We need someone that can stride out there, lock eyes will Bill Belichick and let him know - not today my friend, not in our house. And also, you know, get the tee and bring it back to the bench. Once we lock that down WATCH OUT AFC EAST! As for our FB, bring back Sam Gash in his prime or I don't care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I want to know is why after he has spent his whole carrer gathering tees, do we plan on making him the towell boy this year? Will his skill set transition? Time will tell...
