But I think they should be playing him more. The seasons shot. We need to develop our players and also while doing that, play for a better draft pick.

MRW Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 With the exception of the jump pass TD against Jacksonville, Hardy looked absolutely, completely lost on the field last year. With some guys you get the sense that more game experience will help them put it all together, but Hardy did not look like he had a grasp on the basics. Putting him out there in that condition wouldn't be of any benefit to him or the team.
commish95 Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Maybe he actually sucks? He was a two sport athlete. 36 TD;s in 3 years. Rookie last year. Hurt this year. And he sucks already????? Serious? By the way Who was throwing him the ball last year? Who was Coaching him last year? An he sucks already.......Serious?

Or perhaps people who see nothing other than what they want to fit their own ideas of what should be happening instead of reality... the reality is he isn't very good right now, or he would be on the field.

Or perhaps people who goes to the games and writers that write about the games know what they are talking about and the haters or perhaps Edwards backers blame the rookie. It was reported many times last year that Hardy and Evans were open many times. I was at the Miami game.

Which is why they are not coaches for good reason...whats next, you are going to tell us that Losman will be the comeback player of the year and Super Bowl MVP next year?

I went to the Miami game and seen in with my own eyes. Its all good though.......Let blame the rookie
Big Turk Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Its all good though.......Let blame the rookie or we can just make excuses for why a player isn't very good...hey that seems to be a running theme for this team...its never that players fault...its always someone else's fault when they end up sucking...
Nanker Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Great. We have a FO than can only draft projects and a coaching staff that can't develop talent - it devolves it. As to the personal side of the story - it explains why he's a wuss on the field. He's got no gun down there.
Brandon Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Maybe he actually sucks? I hate to say it, but I think you're probably right.
PushthePile Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 But yet he was wide open and had a QB that wouldnt deliver. Wide open? The guy barely gets off the line.
silvermike Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 I'll give him a pass for the balance of the season. Very few players ever perform in a season where they start on the PUP. But next year is really it for him: he needs to show up to camp in shape, get to work, and earn some looks on the field, or he'll be looking for work in the UFL.
Red Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Yeah, the team I thought the Bills USED to mirror was the Redskins (I say used to, as the 'Skins have recently changed their fortunes by losing Cerrato and hiring Bruce Allen). Now, the Redskins, having brought in outsider Sherm Lewis to run the offense, have begun to use wasted picks Thomas and Kelly. Thomas is starting to look good. Kelly, well...he does look like a bust. Why can't we work Hardy into the lineup? He's supposedly done nothing but rehab and study.
commish95 Posted December 20, 2009 Posted December 20, 2009 Wide open? The guy barely gets off the line. The game I seen must of been his good game then. Oh wait it was Miami. Reporters must be blind too.

Really, just about the post of the year. All these posters B word about the front office, 7-9 records, no playoffs for the decade, etc.......... but when you try to assess responsibilty for that, every player has a teflon coating. "Oh it can't be his fault and you have to give him more years" while all over the league are players that contribute now. Probably the exception is TO as everyone is free to pile on him, and in reality he is the ONLY VISIBLE player who wnts to win badly and now. The rest wait only on pay day

Why can't we work Hardy into the lineup? He's supposedly done nothing but rehab and study. Well maybe he should get on the field and practice too. Fans may want to write this years team off right now and play guys THEY want to see so that THEY have a better view on weither THEY feel he is a bust or not, but the team and front office don't see it that way. Right now, they see what they have in their players as they see them all week, and they are all caoching for jobs next season. Why does Perry Fewell care to see if James Hardy and Steve Johnson can be contributors next season (or get a better draft pick) if they don't even know if they will be coaching next year? Would everyone want Fewell to stick around as the head coach for next year if he would throw the rest of the season and start playing 2nd and 3rd stringers I`m sure if everyone here were temporarily employed at the top position by their employer and told they had a chance to possibly keep that position or be unemployed next year they would start doing research and helping out their replacements

The rest wait only on pay day You put TO, Evans, Hardy, Reed on a different team, with a different QB and Coach they would all produce. These are all good players. The system in place by DJ was a joke. What would D. Jackson being doing here in Buffalo if they would of drafted him instead of Hardy? You can't tell me he would be putting up those type of numbers in a Bills uniform.
