Mike in Syracuse Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Watching that tape made me come to 2 conclusions: 1. Roscoe Parrish is a punt returner, that's it. For all the hype about his speed the guy just can't get any separation. 2. Steve Johnson should be the 4th WR if not the 3rd. Hardy was a wasted pick, Johnson has more natural ability and reminds me a bit of Moulds.
Bleed Bills Blue Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Watching that tape made me come to 2 conclusions: 1. Roscoe Parrish is a punt returner, that's it. For all the hype about his speed the guy just can't get any separation. Sadly, this seems to be evident all too often. Also, I think he's a harder target for a qb to find down the field, and I'm not sure he can fight for the ball against a bigger, physical defender. 2. Steve Johnson should be the 4th WR if not the 3rd. Hardy was a wasted pick... You'd have to think he's earned himself some playing time this year with his continued development and performance this preseason. Let's hope Hardy gets healthy and proves you wrong! And, yeah, I'm gonna let myself enjoy this Maybin flavored Kool-Aid fer awhile, it tastes pretty good!!
Bleed Bills Blue Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 May Day Maybin, baby! Ha ha, and May the force bin with him!
The Big Cat Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Maybin...wow. Throwing the ball to players running toward the endzone...my how that works. Trent, TAKE NOTE!
bizell Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 judging from the few plays that showed our DL, McCargo looked very good when single-blocked. And oh my god did Byrd look so slow on that 78-yard touchdown run.
Tommy Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Does anybody have a link to the Maybin sack or Bills highlights from last night that ISN'T from NFL.com? Those videos aren't working on my work computer. Thanks.
Magox Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Anyone who didn't see the video of the sack, needs to go watch it...he got around their LT so fast it looked like the guy was moving in slow motion...there are gonna be LT's in this league that are gonna give up multiple sacks to Maybin in games because they just cannot handle his speed and quickness... Maybin explodes by Lions LT Look around 1:30 or so to see the sack... That is exactly what I'm lookin for out of Maybin. That was just Nasty!!
JJBuffalo Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 There was only one Bruce Smith. And maybe playing Maybin as an OLB a la Terrell Suggs would be a good move for this year. But he's just 21 and can still fill-out his frame. Thank You. The kid is only 21!!! And his first step is lookin real good!
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 I just need to know if he's changing his number to 59 so I can order my damn jersey already.
ThereIsNoDog Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 I just need to know if he's changing his number to 59 so I can order my damn jersey already. He's not. Order away.
Kelly the Dog Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 How do ya know? Maybin said it this week, that he's not changing the number, and mentioned that Derrick Thomas and Shane Conlan et al did pretty good with it.
Fixxxer Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 May Day Maybin, baby! I like it TheChimp, it sounds great.
Guest dog14787 Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Adversity is like a strong wind. It tears away from us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that we see ourselves as we really are... A twitter from Aaron Maybin less than a week ago and its players like him that give me faith, faith that we can weather the storm and make it to the other side in one piece. Faith that adversity will only build character, make us stronger and make us better because without knowing who you are, where you stand, you don't know how far to climb, to get to the top...
Thoner7 Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 How strong was he at the point of attack? How was he vrs the run? Those are the ??? when talking about Maybin. You can only get so far with quickness. We need him to develop in those other areas of the game.
pBills Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 He was extremely quick into the back field. Which is nice. Stopping the run is one thing, however putting constant pressure on the QB because of speed - that is truly something this teams needs.
LABills08 Posted September 4, 2009 Posted September 4, 2009 Maybin has played two preseason games and already has as any sack as Kelsay had in 16 regular season games last year. Thank god.

And, yeah, I'm gonna let myself enjoy this Maybin flavored Kool-Aid fer awhile, it tastes pretty good!! I'm still trying to figure out how are WR are going to pan out this year and next. Based on the assumption that Owens is here for one year, what will we look like next year? I like Steve Johnson a lot but where do we put him. I would like to see him in the slot but I think he mainly works outside. What do we do when Hardy comes back? People say he is not ready some even say he is a bust. The guy has 9 catches for 80 something yards I think it was and even more inportantly 2 TDs. Seeing as how Trent only threw for 11 last year that's a lot of TDs especially per catch. Hardy needs to at least be in for goal line and red zone plays. Maybe he can work the slot and put Johnson on the outside and of course Lee Evans the other wide. What do we do with Josh Reed? He's made himself into a serviceable role player the last year or so but he's not giving defensive coordinators fits and he only goes about 5'10" or 5'11" I think. I would love to see both Hardy and Johnson outplay him but we know the veteran man love that our current staff has.
