YoloinOhio Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 (edited) Bills' Alexander Making An Impact Buffalo Bills linebacker Lorenzo Alexander has become the best story of the 2016 NFL season. (US Presswire) http://www.sportsonearth.com/article/209848312/lorenzo-alexander-sacks-bills-best-story-nfl The best story in the NFL this year, perhaps in many years, is going on in Buffalo, yet the vast majority of fans haven't even heard it. It's time to change that.His name is Lorenzo Alexander and he is a 33-year-old outside linebacker for the Bills who is currently tied for second in the NFL in sacks behind only Von Miller with 10. That's incredible when you consider Alexander only had nine sacks in his entire 11-year career before signing a veteran minimum contract to play for Rex Ryan last offseason. That in and of itself would be a great story, but that's not all of it. Not even close. Edited November 29, 2016 by YoloinOhio
bobobonators Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 Lorax doesnt suffer from hamstring issues. Lorax is therefore not an alcoholic. What a great year from him.
PromoTheRobot Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 Makes you wonder the line between bust and stud is often coaching and opportunity.
Beef Jerky Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 If we don't make the playoffs then the story just gets lost in the shuffle.
bobobonators Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 Makes you wonder the line between bust and stud is often coaching and opportunity. Yup
BillsFan130 Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 Hopefully the Bills can re sign him next year. Been a pleasure to watch him
bobobonators Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 I wonder what % of people will see that and ask if he just might taking something stronger than Popeye's spinach? How did this happen? What has changed? I'm not saying that's the case at all (honestly), but I've become somewhat cynical over the years.... Maybe it's just me? The same has been said of old some player in Pitt. 😁
bmur66 Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 I often wonder what he thinks about being called Lorax. That doesn't even make sense.
r00tabaga Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 If we don't make the playoffs then the story just gets lost in the shuffle. Well not exactly.
Beef Jerky Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 Well not exactly. Trust me people forget these feel good stories quickly.
87168 Posted November 29, 2016 Posted November 29, 2016 Trust me people forget these feel good stories quickly. I 'member!
Freddie's Dead Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 I often wonder what he thinks about being called Lorax. That doesn't even make sense. C'mon man. The Doctor Seuss poems we had going were classic.
NoSaint Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 Makes you wonder the line between bust and stud is often coaching and opportunity. And luck And he still needs to find longevity
Dragonborn10 Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 I hope he is not juicing. I don't trust any older athlete that has a resurgence. To me it is steroids until proven wrong. Maybe Lorax is just a case of right time right place. I hope so.

Augie Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 The same has been said of old some player in Pitt. Ha! You were quick! I posted, then deleted as I didn't want to turn a feel good story negative. But I DO think it's a legit question. One I ask frequently in baseball, but it applies all over sports.
atlbillsfan1975 Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 Makes you wonder the line between bust and stud is often coaching and opportunity.So true. And luck And he still needs to find longevity I think fit. Many on here have chatted w NFL players both current and ex. They will all say the same thing. There is not a huge gap in talent from the best to the worse player.
klos63 Posted November 30, 2016 Posted November 30, 2016 It's pretty amazing to see an NFL player lose 70 pounds during his career. I bet that's never been done before.
