3rdand12 Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 Lets see. Brown is taking more time to get his footwork sorted than i am comfortable with. Wasn't he a tackle in college ? He is almost too big for the guard position . I cant hate on him though. Thats on the coaches really . He is unfortunately standing out as a weakness on a good line. Because the rest of the line is playing very well , albeit quietly i suppose. Legursky starting would be a step sideway at best . TJ . This kid worries me. But so far he seems to be used mostly as a decoy. That will end this weekend if that is the case . Ryan will not respect him this game until something dramatic occurs. Be interesting to see if Hackett goes vertical against Jets. I am still wait and see with him. He has not been featured it seems to me. Chandler looks out of place. i think that playcalling and Manuel having a checkdown he finds comfort in . I dont think its working and already over used. But it's early and actually i have few bitches so far beside penalties
Big Turk Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 (edited) 100% correct. Leonard McKelvin and Bradham are going unnoticed and doing enough that we are not losing those matchups. While Bradham is not having a stellar season to make MVP he is keeping his side of the fort up. Disappointing might be Carrington. I am not disappointed with his play. I am disappointed everyone else is beating him to make the plays. But that is what happens when you have Dareus taking up every blocker, Williams chugginf the line up and Mario wrecking the opposite end at an all pro click. Carrington will have a superstar game soon and it may be this week. Book it if you want. Bradham played a handful of snaps in the Patriot game and only one snap in last weeks game due to the matchups they wanted... Edited September 19, 2013 by matter2003
brucethomas34 Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 Chandler: A couple years ago this guy was running great routes, creating separation and making plays..usually in chunks of 12-15 yards. I know he's coming off of an ACL, but he's playing scared. Maybe I'm overreacting, but the play that sticks out was this past week where he caught the ball in the flats and rather than turning it up field, he turned, saw the defenders and curled up in a ball. I think he had another drop down the seam , in traffic, which again leads to the fear. Graham: We draft Goodwyn...Graham steps up his game in camp...Goodwyn goes down...Graham is unseen. Bring on... Grag...They drafted him as a receiving TE, but he showed, in pre-season, he can block too. This week’s match up seems to lend to the fact we're gonna need both, without having to sub Chandler and Smith in and out. Let's see what the kids got in live action. Easley...He's big, showed up well in pre-season and can't be any less visible than Graham...right? Costco, for not supplying customers with prozac.
Boatdrinks Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 Graham. Should have kept a different WR, probably Rogers. Now watch him thrive with the Colts.
eball Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 Colin turnstile Brown So much of a turnstile that the Bills can't run and EJ is being sacked all the time. Oh wait -- that isn't happening.
3rdand12 Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 (edited) Graham. Should have kept a different WR, probably Rogers. Now watch him thrive with the Colts. Easy now. Costco, for not supplying customers with prozac. root cause found I forgot to mention Justin Rogers.... improving but a long ways away from holding down the boundary postion. Better than last year? yessir. I would also now like to mention Brooks. For having broken his foot . he is on my list as not improving from last year. Injury issues? thank gosh Robey has found a home in the NFL as a Bill imho . Edited September 19, 2013 by 3rdand12
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 Looking again, I'm sure you mean the Olsen TD for the Panthers. You're right, it was good coverage and just a great throw/catch, something I don't expect from Cam. I don't hold that against Jim Leonard. I don't know what I was looking at. I was remembering the other TD, but that was clearly Justin Rogers who got beat by Ginn. I was all over JL too, until I went back and re-watched the two TD's he was near (one in the Pats game and the other in the Panthers game). Couldn't really blame him for those plays, which were just really unreal throws. Not saying the guy is a pro-bowler, but for a last-second acquisition, he seems to be doing pretty good.
Big C Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Graham. Should have kept a different WR, probably Rogers. Now watch him thrive with the Colts. Hogan and Easley have hardly gotten any time out there as it is. I was rooting for Da'Rick but I'm glad we kept those two.
CardinalScotts Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Justin Rogers. The guy is ALWAYS getting burnt. -Shoulda kept Crez Butler. but Rogers can play..Crez he's on the couch if any team is interested

Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 #1 Colin Brown. I think the run game has suffered at times, and when he's whiffed in pass blocking, EJ has avoided sacks by being nimble in the pocket and hard to bring down and by checking down or throwing the ball away. I don't think his sack totals mean "all is well on the OL" not at all. #2 TJ Graham. Not impressed with his hands - bobbled catches in practice. not impressed with his ball awareness/routes - doesn't seem willing or able to come back for the ball. Certainly not impressed with his blocking - WTF with that ballerina twirl on EJ's run? Contrast with Wood who shot out of the endzone and brought the lumber. Would like to see Easley or (when he's back) Goodwin get a shot. #3 Chandler. Maybe he's not really 100% physically, and he's playing scared, but he's not playing like a big TE. I hope he can get over it.
JustinMychal Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 (edited) I believe Gragg has been inactive for the first two weeks. I thought he showed very well in preseason and he looks to have been a steal in the 7th round. I'd also like to see him suit up on Sundays. THANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!! you dumb asses call yourselves fans who are you watching 89 (Chris Gregg ) has yet to play an NFL regular season snap .......this entire post loses credibility you obviously have NO clue what your talking about Edited September 20, 2013 by JustinMychal
jaybee Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 We've got a lot to look forward to this year and in the years ahead........and here is TBD....right here....right now.........fishing for negative. What a joke.
Best Player Available Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Hughes is another good one...... Early nomination for the great in shorts, terrible in pads award. That should be no surprise.
3rdand12 Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 We've got a lot to look forward to this year and in the years ahead........and here is TBD....right here....right now.........fishing for negative. What a joke. Possibly a retitle.. Such as "Room for improvement" ? : )
jaybee Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Possibly a retitle.. Such as "Room for improvement" ? : ) No point, Bro. If we win the super bowl these guys will still cry like little bitches.....about anything and everything. I guess it makes them happy...and real. It makes me scarce.
NoSaint Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 I'd hold off on judging chandler. An ACL in December means he's not going to be 100% for atleast a month or so. Simply having him on the field learning to trust the knee Is the positive right now. Expectations can't be too high yet.
Armchair GM Posted September 20, 2013 Author Posted September 20, 2013 THANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!! you dumb asses call yourselves fans who are you watching 89 (Chris Gregg ) has yet to play an NFL regular season snap .......this entire post loses credibility you obviously have NO clue what your talking about ...OR, you have the reading comprehension of a rock! The post says "bring on... Gragg", because I want to see him play. Says nothing about being disappointed in his play. We've got a lot to look forward to this year and in the years ahead........and here is TBD....right here....right now.........fishing for negative. What a joke. Not fishing for negative...at all! Championship teams fire on all cylinders and put the best product on the field, at all positions, every week.
simpleman Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 It seems to be almost universal on this board that Brown is an obvious liability on this team. None of us is a professional NFL coach, so either we are missing something not so obvious about his ability, or the coaches or front office are the ones not cutting it. If someone is so obviously a liability at their position and yet 3 games into the season is still is kept in there, who's fault is it that they are even playing in the game? If the coaches and the front office are not either finding the talent on the team, or going out and bringing in talent to replace them with someone who is at minimum not a liability, it is their fault. Not the player trying his best, but being put in a position that he is not qualified to be in.
ALF Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Brown is getting valuable experience to help our depth till Doug Legursky is ready to play.
