South Jersey Bills Fan Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 He was only in town for a few years, but I really liked Larry Centers. I think he was close to the top of the league in catches while he was here...
BillsNYC Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 God the man could block. a human D9 cat. Not sexy like a QB or WR but I sure liked watching him. I still wear my Gash jersey with pride. First time he was here he was awesome to watch, just laying people out. The 2nd time I think it was Mularkey and kept throwing him the ball instead of using him as a lead blocker, idiot.
Chas Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Steve Tasker Then: Fred Smerles, Bruce Smith, Thurman Thomas, Chris Spielman, Darrel Talley, Tony Green, Bob Chandler
THE GASH STATION Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 I still wear my Gash jersey with pride. First time he was here he was awesome to watch, just laying people out. The 2nd time I think it was Mularkey and kept throwing him the ball instead of using him as a lead blocker, idiot. My handle says it all.
Toledo Bill Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 God the man could block. a human D9 cat. Not sexy like a QB or WR but I sure liked watching him. Robert James... one of the best cornerbacks in the history of the game.
zappa74 Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 This is my first post, although I enjoy reading the comments of others daily. My favorite Bills player is/was Jim Braxton. When he was a rookie here in 1971, he and his wife and baby lived in the apartment next to me, and we became friends. Not only was he a terrific fullback, but he was one of the nicest and most down-to-earth people I have ever known. In addition to being a fine runner, his blocking ability was one of the reasons for the amazing numbers posted by OJ Simpson, including his 2000+ yard season in 1973. He unfortunately died at 37 of lung cancer in 1986. A wonderful man, fondly remembered.
John Cocktosten Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 1st - Thurman, he was such a unique RB. There was no RB in the history of the NFL who set up his blocks the way he did. He excelled in every aspect of the game and did it at 195lbs. 2nd - Jimbo has done so much on and off of the field for Buffalo. The amazing thing is that he continues to do so. 3rd - Bruce was the best player ever to wear a Bills uniform IMO.
Kingfish Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 I forgot about Sam Gash. What a cool player with the perfect name! How about Larry Centers?
keepthefaith Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Andre Reed I'll second that. He was a litle prickly at times, but for the most part he just went out and played as hard as he could. You could count on him to make a big play when you needed it. Deserves to be in the hall of fame IMO.

Beerball Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Aaron Maybin I've turned over a new leaf and have decided that his lack of productivity in his rookie year was due to incompetent coaching. His stats next year will be in the neighborhood of 16 games started, 97 tackles, 19 tackles for loss, 13 sacks.
silvermike Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Kent Hull - the only center the team has had in the past 30 years: Trey Teague? Geoff Hangartener? Billy Conaty? Who were these guys?
Tcali Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Tony Greene, Alvin Wyatt,Cookie,Mike Mosley(one of the worlds fastest white men),Ben Williams,Fred Jackson
BLZFAN4LIFE Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Aaron Maybin I've turned over a new leaf and have decided that his lack of productivity in his rookie year was due to incompetent coaching. His stats next year will be in the neighborhood of 16 games started, 97 tackles, 19 tackles for loss, 13 sacks. Is he going back to Penn St.?
bfw1234 Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Is he going back to Penn St.? Really? how much Beer is in the Ball? Maybin needs to be utilized in the same fashion Bryce Paup was - as a speed rushing LB. He is no DE and appears immature so I'm very bearish on his career
zazie Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Really? how much Beer is in the Ball? Maybin needs to be utilized in the same fashion Bryce Paup was - as a speed rushing LB.He is no DE and appears immature so I'm very bearish on his career Both physically and mentaqlly he appears immature (very light frame, and the overactive celebrations at ordinary tackles). But, at least he does not appear to be a thug; seems a well-spoken, gentlemanly young man who potnetially will grow in all aspects. I am far from giving up on him he may well turn out. On the other hand it seems equally likley that ORakpo has just amassed more sacks in his rookie season than maybin will in his entire career. Just like Byrd in his rookie season has eclipsed what will eventually by Lil Dontes career interception number.
Red Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 This is toooo easy.... my all time favorite FOOTBALL player, period: #78...Bruce Smith
