Silvercrw Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 do you guys remember when jim kelly played for the bills and they were on offense how everytime he dropped back to pass you would feel that he will find the open reciever. He just knew where to go with the ball. Lately more and more each week I am starting to feel that with JP. He seems to know where to go with the ball and find the open guy. I havent felt that in Buffalo since kelly retired. you felt it a little with flutie but the play broke down so much it was hard to feel it. With JP its starting to come back. I just hope he continues to grow each week. from what i see i like it.
Beerball Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 He's growing. I like the fact that he spread the ball around on Sunday. I believe 7 different receivers got their hands on the ball. Also happy to see Evans get his 7 (if I remember correctly) catches, and even more happy that most if not all were of the short/intermediate variety. If he's going to get deep he has to make those type of catches. Good job by Fairchild.
tennesseeboy Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 I like the way JP is developing as well. I also think you can't teach a guy to have a rocket arm as JP and Jim Kelly had. However...all that being said and optimistic as I am about JP...its a little early for Jim Kelly comparisons...If we make the playoffs though, I'll be glad to entertain comparisons!
marauderswr80 Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Give credit where credit is due........... two words....... STEVE FAIRCHILD!!!!! hes the biggest reason for JP's development. He understand what he has to work with and designs his offense around him and his abilities.
smokinandjokin Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Did anyone see Kelly going around the field high-fiving the fans, and then he stopped and took a pull off that guy's beer? Classic Jimbo.

He also seems to be digging into some of the experience from Holcomb, from what he mentioned in his press conference.
VABills Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Oh please don't compare Losman to Kelly. This is as bad as those that compared Travis to Thurman.

Classic Jimbo. 793730[/snapback] CLASSIC. *sniff* I miss Jimbo so much.... Though JP's development is making me forget the RJ years.
TNBillFan Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 CLASSIC. *sniff* I miss Jimbo so much.... Though JP's development is making me forget the RJ years. 793757[/snapback] Who's RJ? [Please do not answer that question! I've forgotten and I like it that way!]
HopsGuy Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 CLASSIC. *sniff* I miss Jimbo so much.... Though JP's development is making me forget the RJ years. 793757[/snapback] Just 5 minutes ago, a Fish fan came over and was reminiscing about Jim Kelly. He said that it seemed like whenever he would see the "10 minute ticker*" come up the Bills would be up 7-0 at 1:10 PM. He finished "Kelly was awesome". *For you youngsters, NBC used to give the scores of the other games every ten minutes rather than having constant updates at the bottom of the screen. Also, pizza was delivered by covered wagon.
Kelly the Dog Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Kelly who? Holcomb? 793799[/snapback] No, Kelly with an arm. Kelly Ripa.
erynthered Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Kelly Ripa. 793822[/snapback] And camel toe, NSFW : )
#89 Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Even JP mentioned in an interview that in this last game he Felt like he had a FEEL for the receviers
VABills Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Even JP mentioned in an interview that in this last game he Felt like he had a FEEL for the receviers 793877[/snapback] First he likes Favre ass, now he feels his receivers.
Swift Sylvan Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 No, Kelly with an arm. Kelly Ripa. 793822[/snapback] I think he was comparing JP to you actually. Do you have a good throwing arm?
2003Contenders Posted October 3, 2006 Posted October 3, 2006 Let's just all agree that we won't jump off the wagon if he lays an egg on the road this week against Chicago...
