scribo Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 I don't think there is any doubt: He lost his helmet in the game Sunday but didn't stop until the play was over. For that, he got three stitches and his eye started to swell shut. But he returned to the game and finished with the second most tackles on the team. After the game, he had given so much of himself on the field, he needed five bags of IV fluid. Weeks ago, he put his name on the line to fire up and challenge his teammates when he guaranteed a trip to the postseason for our beloved Bills. Donte Whitner is my favorite current Buffalo Bil,l and he is, for my money, the toughest player we've had on this team in quite a while.
deep2evans Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Whitner was the first name that popped into my mind. Poz is probably second.

Donte Whitner is my favorite current Buffalo Bil,l and he is, for my money, the toughest player we've had on this team in quite a while. I think there are a lot of very tough players on this team. But, if forced to pick one, Donte would be it.
Lori Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 And ain't it cool that there's more than one choice?
EndZoneCrew Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Lynch. Tough enough to drive away from a 300 lb Yenta that just headbutted his SUV?
scribo Posted September 16, 2008 Author Posted September 16, 2008 One of the tougher guys from years past is Shane Conlan. I remember stories about him saying he actually played better in games in which he suffered a concussion early on.

ans4e64 Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Marcus Stroud. The dude is huge and plays angry. Scary combination.
Chandler#81 Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Hard to challenge the Whitner pick but I think I'm seeing the same toughness in Stroud to date. Heck, Mitchell's a beast, Dockery takes no shiite, Josh Reed plays like a man possessed. Even Evans takes some tremendous hits and bounces right up.
John from Riverside Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Cant beleive nobody has picked the FB Barnes yet..... That guy would kick all their @sses
Beerball Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Tough enough to drive away from a 300 lb Yenta that just headbutted his SUV? Jesus, that made me laugh!
WellDressed Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Pound for pound, like "sweet pea" Whitaker back in the day; Roscoe Parrish

This is the first I've heard of the head injury, though I remember the play where his helmet popped off and was impressed to see him go (head first) for the tackle anyways. Did he miss any action on Sunday while they were stitching him up?
LongLiveRalph Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 The 12th Man!! We've endured far worse than any of these players!
PistolPeaTear Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 Pound for pound, like "sweet pea" Whitaker back in the day; Roscoe Parrish id put youboty right there too, hes showing a lot this year, hes gonna be a player in a bills run to the playoffs
BeastMode54 Posted September 16, 2008 Posted September 16, 2008 There are a lot of them out there. On offense I say Lynch, maybe even for the whole team. On defense, I'd say Whitner or Mitchell
