2020 Our Year For Sure Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 I don't care if it didn't matter.
GripnRip Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 I agree, he didn't cost us the game in any way but he does not belong on an NFL starting roster.
AlbanyBill Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 yes. cut him. end of story. he is a marginal tight end. we should have kept gaines
billygoats Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 pretty dissapointing, he needs to hold on to that ball. he also had a few drops in the game that hurt.
Billsfanfourlife Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 God can this guy mess up in big time situations any more?? He can't get his feet in the end zone against the Titans a few years back, he really put the nail in the coffin against the Cardinals with a fumble, and now today he fumbles after we pick up a 3rd and 19...wow, is there no one better out there? Idk how Trent has confidence throwing to him because its literally like waiting for a disaster to happen....
davefan66 Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Royal sux and needs to be gone. At this point I don't even want him as a 2nd or 3rd stringer.
Fan in San Diego Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 He needs to be cut and sign a street FA. It would be an upgrade.
lets_go_bills Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Two catches, one fumble, two drops. Not good production.
thebug Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 I don't care if it didn't matter. It could have mattered, remember the Raiders game it looked like we were done as well. EDIT: Oh yah.....he needs to go.
BillnutinHouston Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 Royal is good for at least one bonehead play every week. Big mouth, small skill set.
Ralonzo Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 But, but... who's gonna throw pies in the locker room? Two catches, one fumble, two drops. Not good production. I'm at the point where I'd rather have him drop the pass right away for an incompletion, instead of two steps later for a fumble.
San-O Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 I agree, he didn't cost us the game in any way but he does not belong on an NFL starting roster. Cut him. Why did they bring him back?
UConn James Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 I think this is a situation like Bobby Shaw a few years ago. Guys need to know that the coaches ain't gonna put up with this sh--; produce or you're gone. This has been a historical problem with Royal. He's dropped TDs that cost us games in the clutch. He failed to get both feet in on a TD that cost us a game. I'm sick of this. See what Shouman and Fine have, b/c we know what Royal has. By far, he wasn't the only thing that sucked today, but let's start with the obvious.
murra Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 If you're not going to cut him after he lost you a playoff opportunity two years ago against Tennessee, arguably the biggest bone-head play I've ever witnessed as a fan, there is no justification to cut him now. ...he is the least clutch player I've ever seen, he has almost no upside except from blocking, and he's really an awful player... ...still, we did not cut him after his Tennessee flop two years ago, and at this point I think its too little too late if you cut him now. It's almost irrational, but I say keep him out of the sake that if you cut him now it means you're admitting he's a joke but did nothing to change it (ie, you kept throwing him the ball late in the game...)
Dan Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 I'm all for jumping on this bandwagon. The sooner the better.

I hear what your saying, but this is the straw that broke the camels back.

murra Posted October 26, 2008 Posted October 26, 2008 I hear what your saying, but this is the straw that broke the camels back. I know. I'm just displaying that I was more upset at him after that Titans game than I am now. I'm being realistic, we're not cutting him. If we didn't then, we're not now.
