Saxum Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 I find the concept of holding training camp at a remote location archaic. It seems to me that it is based on MLB model, but it is from an age gone by. These players are professionals, if living in a tiny dorm room for three weeks is required to make them focus then they need to change careers. Training camp is what makes some of them professional. Lots of college players are used to be treated like man on campus and this is where they learn professionalism.

Well, chris heff, you should have listened to both McD and Beane talk about how they feel it's important to get away to start building the camaraderie and culture they hope takes hold. They want the players to form bonds with each other that will carry over into how they play for each other on Sunday. It's not necessarily about "focus."

CNY315 Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) Matthew Fairburn @MatthewFairburn Nathan Peterman was sharp to start practice but just tossed an interception to Charles James. Edited July 27, 2017 by CNY315
Deranged Rhino Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Is everytime Sammy or McCoy goes down going to be reported? I sure hope so. Just for the comedic value.
CNY315 Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Matthew Fairburn @MatthewFairburn Bills OT Seantrel Henderson getting some run with the first team at left tackle. Good sign for his health.
Beast Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 I will tell you guys this........ If BadLandsMeanie posts his camp threads here, like he did at BBMB, you will see a rock star in action.
26CornerBlitz Posted July 27, 2017 Author Posted July 27, 2017 Matthew Fairburn @MatthewFairburn Nathan Peterman was sharp to start practice but just tossed an interception to Charles James. Bust? @thadbrown7 Peterman just fumbled a snap. Forget all the good things I said about him yesterday
HappyDays Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Sal Capaccio ✔@SalSports[/font][/color] 4]Sean McDermott certainly has his defense thinking takeaway every play. Hands are constantly slapping/punching at the ball until the very end This I like to see. It's all about the details and that's McDermott's strength.
26CornerBlitz Posted July 27, 2017 Author Posted July 27, 2017 @marklud12 Holmes just dropped a big deep ball, his second drop of the day. Not exactly lighting it up to open camp
CNY315 Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Matthew Fairburn @MatthewFairburn Andre Holmes just missed bringing in a diving catch on a deep ball from Tyrod Taylor. Trainers checking on Holmes now .
HappyDays Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Overreaction post: Call Boldin, tell him the offer just went up $1 million.
CNY315 Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 Matthew Fairburn @MatthewFairburn Observation: Bills practice is more fun to watch with Sammy Watkins on the field.
