Nostradamus Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 3 weeks of OTA's and still no playoffs?? DOOOOOMED! PTR I think the problem is when there is a 10 year track record of negativity and failure, it is easy to sense doom, whether or not it is really there.

SteamRoller67 Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Chris Brown Reports from OTAs: "Veterans Kirk Chambers and Seth McKinney continue to hold down the starting roles at the two guard positions on the offensive line. Rookies Andy Levitre and Eric Wood are still being rotated in however, a good portion of the time. " For those of you who think our Offensive line will be upgraded this year...here is a newsflash....These guys aren't even getting starting reps. And oh by the way...Chambers and McKinney (who are currently starting over the kids) did not even start over Fowler and Preston last year... THAT'S how far off these guys are. This is just sickening. Are you joking? It's freaking JUNE! McKinney wasn't even on Buffalo's roster last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kota Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 LOL, It's OTA's man. OTA's is where you learn the playbook and the NFL game. Where people start means nothing at this point. Every team out there in the NFL doesn't throw their rookies to thew wolves day one one of OTA's. It takes time. The Bills like every other NFL team brings them up gradually. You also need to understand that rookie Lineman will struggle with Blitz pickups. You have two options throw them to the wolves and let them get frustrated or let them watch some vets do it and then bring them in gradually. They will be starting by the end of training camp baring injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oak tree 12 Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 So an honest post consists of whining that veterans are working at starting positions more often than rookies at week 3 of OTA's? An honest post consists of bitching because a guy that wasn't with the team last year didn't start for the team last year? You just dropped down a notch, buster. another clueless brother you and this poster need to attend some classes that the bills offer for wives of football fans.

I agree, I was pissed that Mckinney wasn't starting over Fowler and Preston last season, from his back up guard position on the Cleveland Browns, or was it the Detroit Lions?? Either way, what was wrong with that guy? Cleveland or Detroit to Buffalo is only a short distance. He could have driven in on Sunday's in time to start at center, and then been back in his home in Cleveland or Detroit by Sunday night, right?? And if you read the quote you posted above, an educated fan would feel pretty good about two rookie guards, in their first practices with their new NFL team, being rotated into the first team a good portion of the time! You instead come out of that statement with them being "far off" from starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedy G Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 It's obvious that BB's elavator doesnt go to the top, be he succeeded in one thing, creating a thread that ticked everyone off with it's stupidity, and confirming the point that we are all rabid, passionate fans that can't wait for the season to start!

VOR Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 BB Fan, can you please just post an apology for making a seriously bad error in reading comprehension ("Wood and Levitre being rotated in [with the starting unit]) and not having the facts (McKinney wasn't with the Bills last year), so that this thread can finally die?

BB Fan 4 LIFE Posted June 6, 2009 Author Share Posted June 6, 2009 Why are Wood and Levitre not getting starting reps? Two possibilties: a) These guys are a long ways off and aren't going to be our starters; or b) The coaching staff wants to make them "earn" it, and its "just not the way things work in the NFL" Lets all hope and pray option "a" is not reality. If option "b" is correct, its not the best approach. If they are as physically gifted as we've been told, why not give them as much experience as possible prior to taking the field, since that is what they lack? Is watching second string players take a starters reps really more valuable than taking the reps themselves? No. If these guys are the starters screw tradition, screw "hazing", screw politics, get our starters some reps and lets win some games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indiragandhi'sthong Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 Dear Rocket Scientist: Seth McKinney was not even here last year and Chambers was at Tackle. Nice try though, close to accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpstateSwagger Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 I noticed you didn't attempt to provide yourself any substantive defense. Does it suck being stupid? I love when people say they won't resort to name-calling. Well, I will: You, sir, are an idiot. These workouts aren't even mandatory, PeaBrain. You act like they aren't getting any reps, but in your own post, you state they are being sprinkled in with the first team. Hey, Chicken Little, get a grip. And, for future reference, rebuilding is when you DO start from scratch. You are a contrarian, agitator and, most importantly, a deuscher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
