NewEra Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 Jerry. He’s been my favorite player since Fred retired and hasn’t done anything to change that. He brings it. JEEEEEEEEEEEERRRYY Favorites not named Jerry: Tre: he’s everyone you want in a superstar.....and he seems to have the best personality on earth. Milano: almost bought his jersey on several occasions. Reason I never do: I think he’s going to make 11-15 mill. He’s better than Kwon Alexander. John Brown: love the way the dude talks. He’s the man and our #1 Poyer & Hyde: I keep them together because that what Beane must do. Keep them together for at least 5 more years. Do they ever make mistakes. Flawless Ed: rhymes with Fred.

I somehow thought this might be the first thread in history devoid of negativity. Curmudgeons gonna Curmudgeon I suppose. im not sure the official poll count but it looks like Josh and TreyD are fighting for the top 27 minutes ago, Logic said: Lots of great responses in this thread. A few I saw over and over were Tre White, Josh Allen, and Micah Hyde. Good choices, all. I hope Tre White gets some national exposure in the years to come. If he played literally anywhere other than Buffalo, he'd be a national star. We will find out soon if that is important to him. 1
blacklabel Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 It's tough not to say Tre' just because of his attitude and all-around personality. Dude always seems to be having a good time, his "we got the ball goin' this way!" dance during the Jags game last season was hilarious. Allen is another one, I think he just has a "gamer" vibe to him, it may not always be pretty, but he really seems to find a way to make plays when it's needed most. I like Edmunds a lot, freak athlete, works hard, leading a talented defense at such a young age is pretty admirable as well. I dunno, overall I really like this roster. People can bash on culture in sports all they want but McBeane has done a fantastic job of building a team full of like-minded individuals who refuse to disappoint the guy next to them and just want to win. Seems like you could ask any player on that team (let's say a WR for instance) "Would you rather have 12 receptions for 206 yards and 3 touchdowns in a loss or would you rather have 2 catches for 24 yards and a first down in a victory?" and they'd all pick the latter.
MJS Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 Not sure I have a favorite, but Tre White is up there. So are Matt Milano, Josh Allen, Micah Hyde, and John Brown.
Big Gun Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 Allen, he's just the man, he has "it", he was an underdog and he's a nice guy too!
Just Joshin' Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 Just Josh of course. Actually it is Allen on offense and White on defense. 1

I think this is right, though it's also somewhat of a silly exercise. One isn't really constrained to only like one Buffalo Bill, after all.
Alphadawg7 Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 Josh Allen, without question. At this point, I’d probably let him give me AIDS. 2
The Frankish Reich Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 14 hours ago, Virgil said: This is hard and I’m going to cheat Offensive play I get most excited to watch when he has the ball in his hands - Knox Offensive players that make me the most excited when they show big plays - Allen and Singletary Favorite Defensive player to watch - Milano Defensive player I most wanted to see breakout this season - Harrison Phillips If I have to pick one jersey to wear to a game....Milano with Allen as a close 2nd I loved how Harrison Phillips basically moved right in to Kyle's role ... it's taken the D half a season to recover from losing him (and Kyle before him). On offense: John Brown. I knew he was a good smallish speedburner, but his toughness and ability to always get open underneath continues to amaze me. Fantastic addition (Beasley too; he's my #1B guy on the offense). And Frank Gore gets a lot of crap around here. I'm as skeptical as anyone about "veteran leadership" but I have to think he's been a big factor in this team's ability to keep it's collective nose to the grindstone and keep plugging away. Who can't be inspired by a 36 year old in that kind of shape with that kind of dedication?

I'm glad we have him. He may not have the big flashy numbers that you see in other rookie RBs, but he'll definitely get there. He makes the most of every opportunity and he's so exciting to watch. Every time he's handed the ball, I'm on the edge of my seat just waiting for him to rip a long TD run, cuz he definitely has that ability. And the added bonus that he has the best mentor in the game right now. 1 1
dickleyjones Posted December 6, 2019 Posted December 6, 2019 It has been Allen from the phonecall at the draft: Beane "ready to be a Bill?" Allen "yes, sir" It was like they planned it all along.
