dave mcbride Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 1 carry, 77 yards, and a TD. did you see his jets? that guy is still F-A-S-T. He allegedly had 4.3 speed coming in when butler drafted him, and he doesn't appear to have lost any of it. deion is clearly not as fast as he once was, but he's not *that* slow. bryson flat out sped away from him.
BuffaloRebound Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Too bad Bryson was never as fast as Chad Morton.
Frez Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Bryson looked much fatser than Willis yesterday.

When Bryson broke that big run, I loved letting him know that an ex-Bill just broke the game open & your boys have lost to the frickin Lions, how humiliating!

He's still fast but I don't thik he's as fast as he was when he came in the league. For what it's worth, the year before Deion "retired" I saw him run down from behind by a punter who had no angle on him (Micah Knorr maybe?). So it's no surprise he couldn't run down Bryson. My favorite part of the run was the wicked move he put on Ed Reed who was left grabbing at air; it's not often you see somebody make that guy look bad. Cya

Cya 472128[/snapback] i really think that bryson would have been a great player if not for the injuries. as i recall, i don't think butler and wade were ever as crestfallen as when bryson went down in training camp in 98 (or was it 99?) his rookie year. they loved him and thought he was the steal of the draft. it's too bad what happened to him. he's got it all physically: size, power, and blazing speed.
UB2SF Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Too bad Bryson was never as fast as Chad Morton. 472089[/snapback] Good point -- I was thinking the same thing!!! I wonder how many other folks understand the point you're making.
Campy Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Good point -- I was thinking the same thing!!! I wonder how many other folks understand the point you're making. 472286[/snapback] Many of us were there. Thanks a million for the reminder.
Buffalo_Stampede Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Bryson looked much fatser than Willis yesterday. 472091[/snapback] Thats because he is.
SACKMARINO Posted October 10, 2005 Posted October 10, 2005 Good point -- I was thinking the same thing!!! I wonder how many other folks understand the point you're making. 472286[/snapback] barf. that game made me i'll - bledsoe's buffalo bills debut.
Alaska Darin Posted October 11, 2005 Posted October 11, 2005 I'll take "Every Squirrel Finds a Nut" for $100.

But it always seemed you could tackle him with a feather. Boom, down he goes. I never understood that lack of balance or whatever for such a large guy... Funny, he was faster than fellow Vol Peerless Price (and every other Bill) back then.
