Ghost of BiB Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 I caught that JP had a real nice touch on the screen pass. That was nice to hear, since we haven't seen that since Jim Kelly. Old Drew just never got the hang of that one.

JoeF Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 Maybe we will actually see a real screen pass this year...wow....Drew threw the bullet screen--
spidey Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 Maybe we will actually see a real screen pass this year...wow....Drew threw the bullet screen-- 395360[/snapback] well he always wanted to show that he still had a gun
Ghost of BiB Posted August 1, 2005 Author Posted August 1, 2005 Maybe we will actually see a real screen pass this year...wow....Drew threw the bullet screen-- 395360[/snapback] Off the double fake reverse... CTM and I STILL can't get over that play.
Mike32282 Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 Kelly Holcomb does a great job with screens too.
Simon Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 I thought Flutie had real nice touch on his screens. Unfortunately he had to lob them straight up to get them over the DLine...
SDS Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 I thought Flutie had real nice touch on his screens.Unfortunately he had to lob them straight up to get them over the DLine... 395365[/snapback] that depends how high he jumped on any particular play.
VABills Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 I caught that JP had a real nice touch on the screen pass. That was nice to hear, since we haven't seen that since Jim Kelly. Old Drew just never got the hang of that one. 395343[/snapback] Yeah but to Drew defense you had Travis trying to run that route and he wasn't known for always being where he was supposed to be, plus he is about 4' 6" tall, kind of hard to hit such a small target throwing over Dlinemen.
Alaska Darin Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 Yeah but to Drew defense you had Travis trying to run that route and he wasn't known for always being where he was supposed to be, plus he is about 4' 6" tall, kind of hard to hit such a small target throwing over Dlinemen. 395374[/snapback] Especially when you're 6'5" and your release point is at least 2 feet higher. Drew sucks. He's always sucked at short-to-intermediate touch passes - regardless of target.
Dan III Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 I thought Flutie had real nice touch on his screens.Unfortunately he had to lob them straight up to get them over the DLine... 395365[/snapback] Yeah, ask Thurman about catching a swing pass against Indy. I wanted to kill that f***ing midget.
richNjoisy Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 For those of you at TSW: I was screaming for screens for years. I finally gave up last year: Drew couldn't do it. Period. I noted right away last year that JP could do them while in the preseason games. He threw a great one in the Tennessee game as I recall. BTW, no, Kelly was not the last QB with this ability. Doug threw a nice screen and so, for that matter, could Alex. RJ couldn't. Everytime a player got to within 15 ft of him he'd scream and run away. I am looking forward to screens being "Back on the Menu Boys!" (as the Orcs ate the Goblins in The Two Towers). -RnJ
Ghost of BiB Posted August 1, 2005 Author Posted August 1, 2005 Yeah...I sort have blocked Flutie/RJ from my mind over the years. Still, I remember just how great that always worked for the early 90's Bills.
Beerball Posted August 1, 2005 Posted August 1, 2005 OK, who else saw the title of this post and thought GofB was feeling sorry for himself again? Sorry man, my bad.
