Greg de'Ville Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Holy Cow! A 21-POINT QUARTER? Until today, we haven't seen a 21-point GAME from these guys. Unreal.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Good job for Willis. In his only two NFL starts, he's had two 100 yard games.
BF_in_Indiana Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 Amazing, a running back that can punch it in without falling over himself.
jarthur31 Posted October 31, 2004 Posted October 31, 2004 IF WM stops dropping passes and knows his pass blocking assignments, then he should be named the starter. I am a huge TH fan but I know he's having a very bad year all around. The line sure hasn't helped him out either.

It's not a knock on Travis, it's just two different levels of talent. I love Trav too, but everyone knew this day was coming when the Bills picked Willis. Hopefully JP can make our line look just as different (compaired to when Drew is back there) when he gets his shot.

So apparantly you don't need a new QB to stop getting sacks... Heck, Bledsoe even avoided a few sacks himself and threw the ball away. Not that any of the Bledsoe bashers will admit that -- they'll just point to his low yardage total and say, "See, he sucks!" Just like when they point at his high yardage totals and say, "See, he had good stats but we still lost, so he sucks!" Oh, and they did mix things up on some running plays with the OL -- Bannan and Adams were put at OG for a few plays by the goalline. CW

I am not a Bledsoe basher or supporter really. I just want to see Wins and I don't care who is back at QB:) Whoever it is I'll be behind:)

This is how far our expectations have fallen. 8-17/81yds and you give a guy a game ball for not screwing up? (p.s. this only true because AZ dropped an INT deep in our end, and missed recovering a DB fumble opn our 5) PTR 93430[/snapback] http://205.134.161.85/forums/index.php?showtopic=8232 CW
KurtGodel77 Posted November 1, 2004 Posted November 1, 2004 One of the advantages of having Willis in there is he makes the line look better. Normally, defensive coordinators blitz up the middle to go after Bledsoe. Having a between-the-tackles runner like Henry doesn't exactly discourage them from putting extra guys in the middle. But Willis can break the ball to the outside. He can take a quick lateral from the QB and turn it into a nice gain. He can punish a defense for sending those guys up the middle. Now your offense has an extra dimension, and you've become a lot harder to defend.
