Fromm completed 8-of-13 passes for 65 yards, including a 42-yard completion to rookie Marquez Stevenson on 4th-and-10 during that final drive. He's been in these moments before," Bills coach Sean McDermott said, referencing Fromm's Georgia career.

I am so sorry that Joe Burrow had to play with this guy. If Dawkins isn't ready for week 1 I might consider starting Trubisky until he's back. It's that bad. hart wasnt even playing against starters either. the poor guy looked lost, some plays wld hold his own and then others he just lost his technique and was wiffing horribly. 1
billybrew1 Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 What I thought was interesting was that Ed O and Wallace played as much as they did when nearly all the vets had the day off. What's up with that?
Malazan Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 Bobby Hart - he managed to get people to stop complaining about Edmunds 1
BuffaloRebound Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 In defense of Hart, the End he was going against just kept speed rushing wide on the edge. He got no help and one called run inside the gap that End was leaving wide open would’ve put a stop to it. And Fromm even though he deserves credit for some good throws was very statuesque back there. When the End didn’t rush extremely wide Hart generally stuffed him. 1

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 Smith was everywhere. I really like him and Dodson. We have 4 guys at LB that I feel pretty good about. 1

Rocky Landing Posted August 14, 2021 Posted August 14, 2021 To my mind game balls go to Motor, and Webb. Motor: In the first series, I had to wonder if Motor wasn't playing for his job. I think it was eight carries in a row to start the game? But, he looked as good as he's ever looked to me. He was more explosive, his timing was right there, and he was slipping tackles like he did in his rookie season. And wile it's hard to measure his performance against Breida (Motor looks much better), when they were playing behind, and against different level players, McD did put Motor out there for a series later in the game with the same players Breida was in with, and Motor still looked really good. Webb: Webb, in my opinion, is going to be on this team for a long time. I mentioned a few weeks ago that you can't overstate Webb's value, even as a third string QB. During last season in TC, and the offseason, he carved out a niche for himself in practice and outside of practice to the point where more than a few people have suggested that if he couldn't be a competent backup, he should be hired on as a coaching assistant. Yesterday, he showed that he can run this offense. Yes, it was late in a preseason game against scrubs (and behind such noteworthy O-linesmen like Devey, and Hart...), but he showed proclivities that followed Josh Allen's play. He escaped right, he ran draws, and RPOs, and he threw on the run. And he clearly knows this offense, and playbook. I certainly don't think he's going to supplant Trubisky this season-- and to be fair, we learned exactly nothing about MT yesterday. But to my eyes, whether on the 53, or as is more likely, the PS, Webb looked like our #3QB, who is poised to become a solid #2 when Trubisky inevitably leaves. 1
Eastport bills Posted August 15, 2021 Posted August 15, 2021 Who is Andre Smith and how great did he play last night. Love to see more of him in regular season. Stevenson is going to be a candidate for the final 53. His speed and special teams ability make him valuable. Webb looked far better than his Giants version. His runs on broken plays and IPOs were impressive. Rousseau looks like he could be big contributor. Finally, how about Bass. Best kicker in recent Bills history. 21 hours ago, Freddie's Dead said: Jake Fromm - nice comeback for the win after doing nothing in the 2nd half Davis Webb - showed everything I want in a 3rd QB, led the only TD drive by the Bills Motor Singletary - Looked ready for the season, happy if we don't see him again until opening day Greg Rousseau - Looked dominant, came up with key sack early Andre Smith - All over the field, great INT called back by penalty Jaquan Johnson - solid in the secondary, pushing hard for 3rd/4th CB safety Who ya got? 1

It is clear he has more value than most 3rd string QBs; Jim Kelly and Frank Reich said same kind of things about Alex Van Pelt and he is an OC now. Clearly coaches put in more time, even if you include offseason training, than players. I am wondering how much offensive assistants are paid. Based on stories some people in front offices and coaching staffs have given until you actually get to be position coach the money is not great but neither is the money for being on practice squad. Do you think Webb still dreams of getting to play in actual NFL game before he becomes a coach? 1
Dablitzkrieg Posted August 15, 2021 Posted August 15, 2021 (edited) Fromm has no footwork at all. Flat footed. He will be cut. Bobby Hart should have been left in Detroit. He could have gotten 2 of out QB's hurt last night. Edited August 15, 2021 by Dablitzkrieg 2

Do you think Webb still dreams of getting to play in actual NFL game before he becomes a coach? That's a great question. And I would say that if he didn't, he would just be a fraud. And I don't think he is. The thing of it is: I don't know that Webb sees himself as a starter in the league. If he does, he knows it won't be as a Bill. But the role he has carved out for himself is really quite remarkable. I can't think of another backup, let alone a QB, competing for a #3 position, that has contributed as much value to a team as Webb. I think he dreams of a moment where he gets to step into Josh's shoes, and continue the same sort of momentum that Josh carries. And I think that, along with his established leadership traits, makes him an ideal backup for Josh-- Assuming he has the ability to manage the Bills offense. I think his performance yesterday went a long way in establishing that. 1

He’s a freaking 5th round rookie who still needs work and good coaching , you want to cut the kid who only has two series under his belt , I don’t know how they allowed Bobby Hart on the plane back to Buffalo after that performance , I do agree they’ve should have left his a$$ in Detroit Edited August 15, 2021 by Putin 1
