lets_go_bills Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 ...did you see that catch? I don't wanna give the drop-a-saurus a thread but that was a nice catch. Still hate him though.
Cornerville Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 WE NEED ROYAL BACK! WE ARE DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED!!
Erik Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 ...did you see that catch? I don't wanna give the drop-a-saurus a thread but that was a nice catch. Still hate him though. He's one of those classic "make a great play that makes him look like a superstar one minute then make a bonehead play to make him look like a rookie the next minute" kind of guy.
Special K Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 He's one of those classic "make a great play that makes him look like a superstar one minute then make a bonehead play to make him look like a rookie the next minute" kind of guy. The Bonehead plays far outweigh any occasional good plays he makes.
Tcali Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 He's one of those classic "make a great play that makes him look like a superstar one minute then make a bonehead play to make him look like a rookie the next minute" kind of guy. yes.
Fan in San Diego Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 Mr. Didn't get his foot in bounds to win the game with no one around him? We dont need him back.
PeteBills4ever Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 Mr. Didn't get his foot in bounds to win the game with no one around him? We dont need him back. Still remember that play, one of the worst I've seen at a crucial time in the game
GripnRip Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 OMG why did we ever cut this guy?? Another HORRIBLE mistake by the FO my head is going to explode!!!
stevestojan Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 Did anyone catch that the announcer (Billik maybe) called him "Royal Roberts"
Mr. WEO Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 Come on we've got Fine and Nelson---what's everybody worried about?
Doc Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 Come on we've got Fine and Nelson---what's everybody worried about? Who's (truly) worried (that Royal is gone), WEO?
The Dean Posted September 13, 2009 Posted September 13, 2009 He's one of those classic "make a great play that makes him look like a superstar one minute then make a bonehead play to make him look like a rookie the next minute" kind of guy. The Bonehead plays far outweigh any occasional good plays he makes. Indeed. He had me fooled for a while, too. If he was reliable he's be a hell of a TE. But that's a pretty big "if".
JPicc2114 Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 4 Catches 60 Yards and a TD. I don't think he ever did anything close to that in Buffalo.
Simon Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Who's (truly) worried (that Royal is gone), WEO? Considering that he was the most physical player on the offense, a team leader and the only TE on the roster who could and would block anybody, yeah I'm a little worried about how soft the Bills suddenly are on the edge.
Wilson from Gamehendge Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 4 Catches 60 Yards and a TD. I don't think he ever did anything close to that in Buffalo. He never had a capable QB.
Buftex Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Considering that he was the most physical player on the offense, a team leader and the only TE on the roster who could and would block anybody, yeah I'm a little worried about how soft the Bills suddenly are on the edge. This team has been pretty soft all the way around, for a few seasons now... time to give one of these younger guys a chance...I never hated Royal as much as some, but there isn't a position on this team, except maybe RB and K, that couldn't use a face lift. What kills me about Royal, he came to Buffalo with the reputation of being a very smart player, who had limited chances to show his offensive prowess in Washington...but, for me, it wasn't so much the drops (there are more TE's in the NFL that have Royal like receiving skills, than, say, Tony Gonzales skills), as it was the mental lapses that seemed to kill drives...
Simon Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 This team has been pretty soft all the way around, for a few seasons now... time to give one of these younger guys a chance...I never hated Royal as much as some, but there isn't a position on this team, except maybe RB and K, that couldn't use a face lift. Royal was certainly a one-dimensional player but he was one of only a couple/three players on the offense that you knew was going to come out and play his ass off every week. It just bothers me that the Bills would be so cavalier about letting a guy like that go. I agree that they're pretty soft all the way around (I chose Jauron's Marshmallows as my FF team name this year:-), but it's decisions like dumping Royal that have played a large part in making them that way.
bills_red Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 I watched 5 min or so of the game I saw a drop pass and a bad block.

Okay, make that 1 definitely worried (Simon) and 1 possibly worried (WEO).
Simon Posted September 14, 2009 Posted September 14, 2009 Okay, make that 1 definitely worried (Simon) and 1 possibly worried (WEO). If that's my only company, perhaps I should reconsider. And welcome back to the original Doc.
