TH3 Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Hey - Steve Johnson - wait till you get into the endzone before celebrating....have a little patience before making yourself look like TO/Ochocinco....
JTO Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Ahhh, let him be. We could use a diva on this team. His slight arrogance or mor like confidence can pump up the stadium. Reggie Wayne acts th same way, doesn't he?

Reggie Wayne acts th same way, doesn't he? He can do whatever he wants after the TD is scored...almost surrendered the 6 points for the sake of strutting into the endzone, though. But, no harm no foul. I'm sure Chan gave him a quick word about it on the sideline. When you break off a route like that, it's tough not to strut I suppose.

PromoTheRobot Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 What are you people talking about?? sJ had to walk the sideline tightrope into the endzone. He wasn't strutting. PTR
Astrobot Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Worked Mathis inside, then moved outside. A thing of beauty. Like me some swagger. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ue4NdiIEkcE
stony Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 What are you people talking about?? sJ had to walk the sideline tightrope into the endzone. He wasn't strutting. PTR My view too. He was holding the ball out in case he got pushed out at the 1. Great play.

BillyBaroo Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Maybe he was praising God instead of blaming him.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Hey - Steve Johnson - wait till you get into the endzone before celebrating....have a little patience before making yourself look like TO/Ochocinco.... I could be mistaken, but what I saw - he got shoved and had to fight to stay on his feet as he neared the goal line. As he got near the goal line, he held the ball forward so that it would "break the plane". Johnson better get religion this year on ball security and putting the ball away I give him a pass on this one. I think it was making sure the ball crossed the plane, not premature celebration. That's just my viewpoint watching the video and again I could be mistaken.
tennesseeboy Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 whoa...great pass and great catch....I don't see him showboating on the catch, just staying in bounds and getting the six. THAT is a nice omen!!

He got shoved hard by (Mathis?) at about the 7, arms and legs were windmilling trying to stay on his feet. I think he reached with the ball to ensure it broke the plane before part of him went out of bounds, though he managed to stay in bounds I would personally prefer that he tuck the ball away more securely earlier, and risk having 4 downs to punch it in from the 2 yd line If Chan sees it that way I'm sure he got an earful, but I don't see any strutting until the "deed was done" Again just what I see
High Mark Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Stevie runs some dirty routes. He knows how to get open thats for sure.
PromoTheRobot Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 TBD'ers overreacting to something that didn't even happen. PTR
DrDawkinstein Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Guess someone always needs SOMETHING to complain about, but I see it like these guys... Worked Mathis inside, then moved outside. A thing of beauty. Like me some swagger. youtube.com/watch?v=ue4NdiIEkcE My view too. He was holding the ball out in case he got pushed out at the 1. Great play.
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 Disregard my earlier post. After watching the replay a few times, I agree with you guys...at first blush, it appeared he was stretching the ball to celebrate and broke stride. I was wrong.
vegasbillzfan42 Posted August 28, 2011 Posted August 28, 2011 How about how ESPN decides to cover teams like Denver or KC with special analyst coverage and then The Bills game goes to overtime and turns out to be a comeback game. We get NOTHING! They show the Stevie TD, Gerard TD, and the Lindell FG Come On Man!! What about Fitz having a 158 passer rating? How about the Online doing a good job of protecting? Or, how about our D playing damn good in the first half before the 3rd and 4th take over. I just wish they would cover every team the same. I hate being put in the basement.
