ACor58 Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 He doesn't make any plays. The media is biased.

scribo Posted October 31, 2008 Author Posted October 31, 2008 Mr. Winfield and Mr. Fletcher also made the list. Good for both of them.

Congrats, Donte! No question, indeed. This can't be right. I've been reading, on this very board, that Whitner sucks, he was a reach and he doesn't make any plays.
Fingon Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 The National media is obviously showing their Bills bias. I guess it's just too much to hope that the media will finally give some attention to the NYJ, Cowboys, and Pats.
deep2evans Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 Bullsh!t, he has no INTs and that is the only thing DBs should be graded on.

Winfield Winfield, Fletcher and Pat Williams are three former Bills I didn't want to part with. I understand why they were let go but, they were and still are, great players, IMO.
BillsVet Posted November 1, 2008 Posted November 1, 2008 Winfield, Fletcher and Pat Williams are three former Bills I didn't want to part with. I understand why they were let go but, they were and still are, great players, IMO. I object when fans say that Fletcher always made tackles down field. It was easy to think this, because Fletcher didn't look like a classic LB. It's just ironic to me that many fans did not realize how weak the Bills were at DT for 2006. IMO, that shortcoming translated into the LB's and DB's having to make more tackles, many of which were downfield. I think the Bills yielded 140 rypg in 06, and that figure didn't change much in 07. Before he was injured last season, Posluszny made a bunch of tackles, though very few made mention that they were downfield as well. Both Poz and LF made tackles sp far off the line because the front four could not control the LOS either year. Fletcher is a quality player whose durability is never in question. He's not a game changer, although he made plenty of TFL's in his time as a Bill. I realize the front office wanted a total rebuild and their own guys, but IMO it was a mistake to let go an experienced MLB who could play the C2.

lets_go_bills Posted November 1, 2008 Posted November 1, 2008 Cool. Good stuff. Hard to argue with the names on that list.
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted November 1, 2008 Posted November 1, 2008 I'm still waiting for the anti-Whitner people to come out of the woodwork on this thread.
StupidNation Posted November 1, 2008 Posted November 1, 2008 And say what? No one is anti-Whitner, we want him to make plays that mean something, not get torched in the secondary without doing anything. "But a reporter said it!!!" And if Jerry Sullivan says it does it make it any more of a reality? London Fletcher all-pro not Patrick Willis?
