Chalkie Gerzowski Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Ben Troupe... whatever happened to him?
BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 The Bills don't play any of the players they draft. Here's round 2 through 7: Troup Carrington Easley Wang Moats Batten Brown Calloway I mean how many of these guys even dress, let alone make a play? This is so sad a team drafts these guys and none can even play in a rebuilding year. Granted Easly is hurt, but he would have never palyed anyway. How we waste a high 2nd and 3rd on DL help and the can not get on the field withthis team is rediculous. Good job Buddy.
Sisyphean Bills Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Well, old school thinking is that you don't play rookies because they'll cost you games.
bluv Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 WHAT!!!! Are you serious??????????? The Bills were awful vs. the run today and had NO pass rush. Williams is doing the best he can, but he is a marginal NFL player and always will be. Where is Tropue? He can't do any worse. And bring Mpates and Carrington as well Williams is the least of our problems. I'd like to see Troupe lineup with Kyle on a few plays as Stroud is actually the weak link when it comes to giving ground. Honestly I would have liked us to stick with the 4-3 but just play more agressively for honestly we have basically played a four man front 85% of the time. If we had let Schoebel do his thing and try to sign Kappman from GB then a 4-3 with those two at DE combined with our current DT rotation wouldn't look so bad. A LB corp of Poz, Davis, and whoever would round out the front seven.
tipopticxe Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 I would be for any in on defense that can get Ellison off the field
BillsVet Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 I would be for any in on defense that can get Ellison off the field Ellison should be up for an extension any day now too I'm thinking. He's a high motor undersized guy playing out of position. Those seem like the pre-requisites. Even if Troup doesn't get in, teams are forcing Buffalo to go 4-2-5 and beat them up on the interior. The DL is pretty darn bad.
sharper802 Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 The Bills played most of the game today in their 4-2-5 nickel. Troup is not in that package. An intelligent post! Isn't it just easier to complain about **** though....
Green Lightning Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Play Troup. Play Carrington. Put KW to DE and bench Stroud. Play the young guys! We're not going anywhere!
Punch Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 WHAT!!!! Are you serious??????????? The Bills were awful vs. the run today and had NO pass rush. Williams is doing the best he can, but he is a marginal NFL player and always will be. Where is Tropue? He can't do any worse. And bring Mpates and Carrington as well Williams had a terrific game. He was consistently getting a push and was not knocked off the ball in the run game. George Edwards didn't adjust the defensive alignment for whatever reason to counteract the Pats when they starting pounding the ball. But the most consistent player on D aside from Dwan Edwards was Williams; and he actually made plays when it counted (a sack and a batted pass) to force the punt and give the O the ball with plenty of time and a chance to win. He was relentless but he wasn't really helped by the coaching staff or his teammates.
Billy in 4C Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 WHAT!!!! Are you serious??????????? The Bills were awful vs. the run today and had NO pass rush. Williams is doing the best he can, but he is a marginal NFL player and always will be. Where is Tropue? He can't do any worse. And bring Mpates and Carrington as well Dude seriously watch the game next time... Williams is our best player. He had a sack, a key 3rd down blocked pass, was penetrating the line while double teamed consistently. Even Tom Brady says he's our best defensive player. He can't do it all. The LBs in the middle are awful.
bbb Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Dear 50% of TSW, It's spelled T-R-O-U-P There is no "E." There never will be an "E." Sincerely, SpillerTime21 Thanks, SpillerTim
AllDayADay Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 because Troupe has been getting knocked back.... he's not ready. When? You guys just talk without any evidence
beerme1 Posted September 27, 2010 Author Posted September 27, 2010 Who's Troupe? Dear 50% of TSW, It's spelled T-R-O-U-P There is no "E." There never will be an "E." Sincerely, SpillerTime21 Ben Troupe... whatever happened to him? Thanks, SpillerTim Holy chit a typo. Sorry, Maybe if I saw the guy on the field more often I would know how to spell his name! You know, like back in the day when we had that guy Jim Kelley
Spiderweb Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 in chan's defense kyle williams played a great game today Kyle had a nice series late in the game, but don't make this out to be a great game. Judge your nose tackle on the the opponents running game. We were gashed inside and out all day long. Williams was a part of the 200 plus yards we gave up on the ground against a team not known as a good running team.
BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 An intelligent post! Isn't it just easier to complain about **** though.... The find a way to put Troup in the package. Is that so hard to understand? Same with Carrington. If not, why use high 2nd and 3rds on guys like this.
