Magox Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 (edited) That sucks, he's been a bright spot amongst our LB's (relatively speaking) Edited December 3, 2010 by Magox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Having no LBs might actually be an improvement over the stiffs that currently man those positions. If you haven't noticed the Bills D has been giving up fewer points per game, so those "stiffs" as you call them were actually improving some. I sure hope the backups can step up.

BuffaloBill Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Did anybody notice that Shawn Nelson is out with a Migrane? My wife gets them so I know they are debilitating but to declare him out three days off is odd to me. I wonder if there is a more significant underlying issue - perhaps concussion - for example.

I sure hope the backups can step up. PTR If you're wasting energy defending the worst LB corps in the NFL, then you've got too much time on your hands. They're horrible. Injured or not. There is arguably one LB on the roster who would start on another NFL team (Poz) -- the rest would be backups at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Never NEVER Give-up Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 At this point in the year & no playoffs to shoot for, this is a GREAT way to get more guys you want to evaluate onto your roster. Then you will have better competition for positions in the spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van_phelaN1 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 If you're wasting energy defending the worst LB corps in the NFL, then you've got too much time on your hands. They're horrible. Injured or not. There is arguably one LB on the roster who would start on another NFL team (Poz) -- the rest would be backups at best. Is he wasting energy or wasting time? There is a difference between defending them and stating facts the FACTS are that they were improving. Just because they were still bad doesn't make the statement false. If you are really wasting energy trying to rip somebody down because they have the ability to see things objectively while you just place things in the "bad" or "good" category on a message board (on which you yourself have over 5,000 posts) then you've got too much time on your hands as well.

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 I agree the LB unit is the one that could use the most help at this point, especially when you are talking about a 3-4 alignment. To add to it, there are 6 LB's on IR, Mitchell was there too before his release. I hope to see some great pick in april for the LB position and I hope Batten, Moats and Carrington bolster the unit in their second year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get 'em Get 'em (LaVar Arrington voice) The last couple weeks I noticed Torbor making plays more often. The LBs are a joke but that youngster seemed to have a light go on recently; too bad. Yeah if we draft atleast 2 linebackers maybe 3 in the first 4 rounds of 2010 I'll be happy. Edited December 3, 2010 by Why So Serious? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphean Bills Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Lmao!!! So much for Buddy's free agent class. It's like a magic show. Poof! They're (almost) all gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Jose Bills Fan Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news;_ylt=AgSgeb46wmAE.c2OAeahLG9DubYF?slug=ap-bills-torbor getting very thin at LB now I'd say Aaron Maybin is pretty thin so yeah, both literally and figuratively. So much for Buddy's free agent class. It's like a magic show. Poof! They're (almost) all gone. Yes, but entirely due to injury. We can agree that Cornell Green was playing poorly (and injured) before his final injury. But Dwan Edwards, Andra Davis, and Reggie Torbor were all victimized by injury at times when it appeared that they were playing their best football on a defense that was slowly growing into a new system.

Meathead Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 i will root for the bills to win while the game is going on but when its over i wont mind at all if they lose. every draft slot matters and wins at this point are virtually meaningless with that in mind, these games will be an excellent resource for gailey to figure out who can play and who cant. yeah our lbs have pretty much sucked all season, but if they can find a good backup or two for that unit out of these games that will be very valuable come next season and man would it be awesome to pull off an upset over the cheats or jets with this roster. i can dream cant i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
