SageAgainstTheMachine Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 I don't think anyone could remove that smile from his face: https://www.buffalobills.com/video/jerry-hughes-enjoy-this-tonight I always found it a little funny that Hughes was basically the one holdover starter on either side of the ball from the Whaley administration because I associated his game with flashes of brilliance interrupted by some selfish penalties and tons of "close but no cigar" moments. He did have that one amazing play against...the Browns, I think, with the strip sack and fumble. Anyway he's the Buffalo Bill that has seen the Patriots close out this division the most times and at 32 years old he probably doesn't have more than 2-3 seasons left. It put a smile on my face to know that he was the one holding the ball in the end zone on the play that effectively ended the game. And what a run! Those were seriously some RB skills. 12 5 1
MJS Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 One of the best trades in franchise history when you consider what we gave up. 14
JY422 Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 very fitting for him to be on the "receiving" end of the Tre' White sack/fumble. Well done Hughes. Go Bills!

Bob in STL Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 He was always a very good player but now he is more. His leadership and buy-in to what McD is selling is what will extend his career. 6
NewEra Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 My guy Jerry. When he snatched that fumble up he had instantly had end zone on his mind. Once he schooled that first would be tackler you just knew there was nothing stopping him. While the “giant laser” to Kumerow was a sight to behold, Jerrys return was my favorite play of the year. 3 1

I was insanely worried he would fumble it back to the Broncos but he freaking scored which was insane. 1
BillsPride12 Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 Very happy for Hughes since he was here for the bad years for so long. I just wish the timing would've worked out where Kyle Williams could still be part of this 1 1

I'd totally forgotten Kelvin Sheppard's name, and had to look it up on Dr. Google. He ended up bouncing around the league until 2018, and is now LSU's director of player development. He was a 3rd round pick (#68) of the Bills 2011 draft, a relative disaster of a draft for the Bills, with Tub o' Goo at #3, Aaron Williams, whose career was essentially ended by a Jarvis Landry cheap shot to the head, at #34. The only other name of note in that draft was Da'Norris Searcy, who had a nice 8-year NFL career. The rest? Chris Hairston, Johnny White, Chris White, Justin Rogers, and Michael Jasper. 1 1

Oh I meant one from a few years back. Turns out it wasn't a strip sack but a forced fumble on the RB. Found it here... 3 1
NewEra Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 Funny thing is, he’s not even in the box score as he didn’t record any stats other than fumble recovery and TD. I thought he should’ve gotten .5 of addisons sack initially. After watching the replay, he really only had his arm on kicks back for a second before Addison put him down. Speaking of sacks..... Ed Oliver’s sack was satisfying. 2
FireChans Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 Jerry screaming "let's do this for Buffalo" at the end of that play cemented what I always thought about that dude. He rules. 4 2 2
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 “What a loaf of bread just slinging it around!”😂—Schlereth on his TD run. Posted this elsewhere but fits better here. 1

I felt the same way, haha. I was like, "Gah, just go down, Jerry!" and then he made that cut and it was, "Hey wait, he might make it!" Awesome to get defensive scores in back to back games. And awesome for Hughes. I feel like he's been a hair away from one of these kinda plays for a while now. 1
TAinLack. Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 Would of loved to hear Chris Berman call the play..., "oop, bop, woop, he...could... go... all... the... way!!!
Doc Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 He's been a great player for the Bills since they traded for him. Got an undeserved bad rep from the zebras but still kept playing his game.
jimmy10 Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 “JERRY’S GONNA SCORE! JERRY’S GONNA SCORE!!!” was what we were yelling in our house after that first juke. Amazing.
Buddo Posted December 20, 2020 Posted December 20, 2020 Very well deserved. The guy always puts it all out there on the field. Like others, my first thought was 'just go down', but was so pleased to see him run it in, in some style it has to be said. Probably a good idea Singletary ran his in later, as Jerry would probably be giving the RBs a lot of stick in the week. 1 1
