Big Turk Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I officially think I could throw a better ball than Hamdan... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy griffin Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 yes, he looks special. very active. this might have been a steal. i like his height (6'2) and the leverage he uses. good balance, good closing speed. ellison to the bench. of course perry loves his ellison. He has stood out every game. It's time to get him some reps with the 1st stringers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsVet Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 All right, I'm going to say it: Hamdan sucks. There's a reason he's never been trusted as more than a 3rd stringer. He has no touch on his throws, and regularly hoists up wounded ducks. May the chroisen ones now enter the fray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huuuge Bills Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 On-side this time? Nope! Seriously, why would we try to practice something that we might need to win a game.

Lori Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Stat of the week, from Mark Gaughan's deadline piece: http://www.buffalonews.com/sports/story/772033.html The game was the first outing for the Buffalo offense against a hostile crowd and the first game against a 3-4 defense. The Bills were 1-8 against the 3-4 defense last season. Knew it was bad, but 1-8?!? Yikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huuuge Bills Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 How so?? You can no longer use the Wedge to block on kick returns for one. You are now only allowed to have two blockers in an area at any one time. Although why they want to limit the most exciting plays in the sport is beyond me.

jimmy griffin Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 No, they are scared of Eric Studesville's running game plan. WHO THE F IS ERIC STUDESVILLE? Let me guess, he is related to Ralph Wilson or some member of the Buffalo Club or the Saturn CLub?

bladiebla Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 It looked like Hamdan was trying to protect the ball a bit too much on a couple of those throws (notice how he all delivered them a bit short, away from defenders), in the end he did drive the team down the field twice for 2 TD's. Also he was the only one from our QB's that didn't turn the ball over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Statistically, the team that has the fewer turnovers wins most of the time. It's really important to protect the football when you have it. We work on it. We work hard on it. On Friday, we did a great job with that, I think." Another Jauron moment brought to you by the makers of Ex-Lax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-9 Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 Jauron squarely placed it on the shoulders of TE, just as he should have. Good comment by DJ. "You can't play timid out there." He thought the protections were adequate (so did I) and that TE was late a few times (as did I). Go ahead and rip Jauron a new one for his tiresome cliches but he was absolutely correct in those comments. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the ball will bounce our way next time. Seriously: Yes, he is right. But, there is a ginormous difference between playing afraid of your own shadow, checking down every pass, etc. and having the cojones to go out and beat someone. Give me the guy that fearlessly takes a shot at making a play that wasn't even supposed to be there, ala Ben Roethlisberger, any damn day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ and his coaches cannot help but impart a timidity onto many of their players. They coach scared, and it's no surprise some players, particularly TE, play scared. They don't take shots down the field, the defense won't blitz much, and physically they're dominated more often than not at the line of scrimmage. Conservative football is for the fourth quarter when you're up 21 points. The Bills seem to have a habit under DJ of playing that way until they're down big.
