27yankees Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 From Drew Lock: “He’s an extremely talented corner, but it’s not going to be something that scares you off of a throw or scares you off of a matchup,” added Lock. “If my read takes me to him, and I need to throw the ball, there will be no second-guess about throwing it.”’ 1 3

QBs have been successfully throwing at Tre all season. This should be the attitude of an NFL starting QB. I fear no one. Edited December 18, 2020 by wjag 1
Don Otreply Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Do ya think Tre will get an unsportsmanlike penalty when he flips the ball to Lock after a pick six? Go Bills!!! 2
Doc Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Nothing wrong with what Lock said. But if it gives Tre extra juice, great. 3
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 I feel like he’s trying to set Tre up for a deep ball on the first play of the game.
WotAGuy Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 The fact that Lock plans to even come out onto the field of play is a slap in the face of the Bills’ D. Hope they B word slap him. 2 5

RunTheBall Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 God we like grasping at straws. This team doesn’t need bulletin board material. They don’t have trap games. We don’t need a dome. We can play in less than perfect weather. We are better in the third quarter. We have improved running the ball and stopping the run. We can survive without John Brown (yes we are better with him). We have one of the most talented and well coached teams in the league. We don’t need anything other than to stay healthy and execute at the level we are capable of. Doesn’t mean we will win the Super Bowl but we have the team to make a run this season. 2

So you're saying that the whole "bulletin board material" type of motivation stops happening for players and teams when they are good? Wasn't Thurman famous for taking slights at every little thing and turning it into motivation? It's not about needing it. But it's real. It was real last week when Juju danced on the Bills logo. You also see it ALL the time when players play their former team. Edited December 18, 2020 by MJS 2

NoSaint Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 What’s he supposed to say? That he’s scared of tre? all he said was that he’d throw the passes he needs to throw and not be timid. 1

I highly doubt Tre is getting worked up over an opposing QB saying (I’m paraphrasing) “Tre is a good CB but if my reads take me there I’m still going to throw it”. What’s he supposed to say? “I’m afraid to throw it Tre’s way”? Edited December 18, 2020 by RunTheBall

WhoTom Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 Of course he said that - his job is to find the open man and throw him the ball. The reason QBs don't often throw in Tre's direction is because the receiver he's covering is rarely open.
Big Turk Posted December 18, 2020 Posted December 18, 2020 1 hour ago, elijah said: come again? QB’s have been neither throwing at Tre, nor throwing against him successfully Does this say White is the least targeted CB in the NFL as a percentage of throws against a defense?
