UBBullsfan Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 I hate the Patriots, but guys like Julian Edelman make plays when the game dictates it. I think the Bills don't have many of those guys. I don't know this, but it seems like a lot of Bills are mostly in it for the money.Exceptions..... Chris Hogan (example, his catch against the Vikings), Sammy Watkins (is a straight up playmaker), Jerry Hughes (occasionally steps up and makes a big play, such as the strip sack against the Dolphins this year), and Stephon Gilmore would be borderline (his diving swat against the Patriots on MNF is one example, but he sometimes gets burned by slants or comeback routes).What are your guys thoughts?
LeGOATski Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 I agree with those guys. The whole D-line has made big plays in the past. Tyrod has made big plays with his legs in comeback situations.
PortlandiaEast Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 My only issue is with Hughes because he also does the opposite. At a time when you can't have a penalty he gets a personal...
SF Bills Fan Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 I'm thinking the big 3 will step up big. I think McCoy makes a true statement and has a great game, but big plays will come from Taylor and Watkins.
Estelle Getty Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Answer: Not many. This would help explain our playoff drought. 15.70 years and counting.
The Big Cat Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Answer: Not many. This would help explain our playoff drought. 15.70 years and counting. YEP. Answer: zero in the must win KC game and zero in the winnable Pats* game. Blame scheme all you want, players had chances, they failed.
Agent 91 Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 YEP. Answer: zero in the must win KC game and zero in the winnable Pats* game. Blame scheme all you want, players had chances, they failed. No cop out cat. Tell it like it is. Scheme works if you play it right. End of story. Its not flashy but it will get the job done. Not enough solid players. Sammy respectfully is not clutch yet. Merely because he hasnt made that game breaker play yet. Anyone who knows me knows i think the world of him. Potential ot reached yet. Anyone else find it sad that our most clutch are not anyone we paid mega bucks... or are thinking of paying mega bucks for.
Freddie's Dead Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 I see Sammy. Hogan runs sideways or backwards instead of getting more yardage and first downs by falling forward. LeShady had the huge drop against KC. Rambo has dropped a number of INTs. Hughes has killed us with penalties. I can't think of a play where Sammy hasn't come through. Of course, assuming they deign to throw Sammy the ball.

Of course, assuming they deign to throw Sammy the ball. Don't you know that's why defense players play defense. Because they can't catch. Sammy had the game winner at the Vikes last year in a back shoulder throw. Also the crucial 3rd and 2 play against the Jets at MetLife

Anyone else find it sad that our most clutch are not anyone we paid mega bucks... or are thinking of paying mega bucks for. Clay for example looks soft to me. I would to see him break one up the seam finally. screw the coverage. dont stat him for me . He has not been a game changer /breaker. Lesean proved me wrong. He is worthy
Marty McFly Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Im calling on Rambo to make 2 picks and return one for a TD. Our Def is gonna have to put up points for us to win. My only issue is with Hughes because he also does the opposite. At a time when you can't have a penalty he gets a personal... LOL this is true. Hughes pisses me off with his anti-clutch penalties My only issue is with Hughes because he also does the opposite. At a time when you can't have a penalty he gets a personal... I agree with those guys.The whole D-line has made big plays in the past.Tyrod has made big plays with his legs in comeback situations. TT wont be able to do that this game, Watts is gonna be all over him especially wit Miller and Hendy out. He needs to play lights out from the pocket this week if we want to win.
PO16FFS Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 (edited) I hate the Patriots, but guys like Julian Edelman make plays when the game dictates it. I think the Bills don't have many of those guys. I don't know this, but it seems like a lot of Bills are mostly in it for the money. Exceptions..... Chris Hogan (example, his catch against the Vikings), Sammy Watkins (is a straight up playmaker), Jerry Hughes (occasionally steps up and makes a big play, such as the strip sack against the Dolphins this year), and Stephon Gilmore would be borderline (his diving swat against the Patriots on MNF is one example, but he sometimes gets burned by slants or comeback routes). What are your guys thoughts? I think Graham gets burnt sometimes but often he makes some good plays. The 4 players you mentionned are far from being clutch. Especially CH, JH and SG.

Bills!Win! Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Colton Schmidt his whole career (except the Thursday night game)
UBBullsfan Posted December 5, 2015 Author Posted December 5, 2015 Colton Schmidt his whole career (except the Thursday night game) Does punting count as making a play? He has been good, but punting doesn't win championships. I think you guys are underrating Chris Hogan. When the game is on the line he almost always gets open.

Didn't Sammy make the defining play in wins vs Detroit and Minnesota last year? I'd say he, at least, deserves to be called clutch
BuffaloBillsForever Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 Didn't Sammy make the defining play in wins vs Detroit and Minnesota last year? I'd say he, at least, deserves to be called clutch The Chandler catch was the most "clutch" on that game winning drive.

Hughes pisses me off with his anti-clutch penalties TT wont be able to do that this game, Watts is gonna be all over him especially wit Miller and Hendy out. He needs to play lights out from the pocket this week if we want to win. TT is best against the JJ Watt types - he abused Suh twice VT/Nebraska and twice v Dolphins. Roll him on every pass play to the side JJ isn't. He's much more elusive with a head start. TT also throws very well on the run.
