gflande1 Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 I dont have a transcript and only caught a part of it...if someone heard it...I would be interested in what he said. From what I heard, he was saying that he wasnt sure if he could kneel it or not since it led him into the endzone. He thought it might have been a safety if he did. If he is confused, is that on him or is that coaching? Doesnt sound like he was told to bring it out...sounds like he wasnt sure what to do...not smart I dont agree with many that blame this loss on Mckelvin alone. Too many bad decisions, bad drive ending penalties, poor clock management, missed tackles. Mckelvin didnt lose this on his own, he didnt help, but this was a team loss.
Warren Zevon Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 He also said if he had the chance to do it again, he would take it out again.
bills44 Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 didn't he kneel down in the end zone on the Pats** first kickoff?

His lack of understanding is definitely on the coaching staff!!
John from Riverside Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 What folks are missing is that he damn near broke it....... I am proud of this team.....they didn't play to lose. We did lose but they didn't play like they were scared to lose.
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 I would not be surprised if that's the exact intent of their kickoff team - kick it to the goal line to induce that confusion. Never mind that McKelvin has the brain of a cabbage.

I love McKelvin and his attitude. And I'm sure he will recover. But he lost the game. Sorry.

We did lose but they didn't play like they were scared to lose. Oh yeah! and Bell damn near almost didn't get 4 penalties and Ellison damn near missed covering Watson on 2 TDs and Evans, Jackson, Owens damn near missed catch the ball
Alaska Darin Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 huh? The guy that hit him was pretty much the last guy.

bills44 Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 The guy that hit him was pretty much the last guy. he wasn't remotely close to beating him.
SDS Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 What folks are missing is that he damn near broke it....... if by that you mean he was covered like a blanket, then yes, he almost broke it.
Fewell733 Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 What folks are missing is that he damn near broke it....... I am proud of this team.....they didn't play to lose. We did lose but they didn't play like they were scared to lose. he did. But once he knew he was caught he should have gone down in a heap protecting the ball. I'm proud too. This was a tough, brutal, heartbreaking loss, but it was all those things because we looked well prepared, played tough and should have won but for a player's mistake. It's football. Good teams lose tough close games all the time. In fact usually when good teams lose they lose in tough, close games.
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 Oh now COME ON. Cabbage a bit much? I was torn between cabbage and sponge.
JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 The guy that hit him was pretty much the last guy. Cause the other 10 were already all over him I think.

Never mind that McKelvin has the brain of a cabbage. Read the thread. McKelvin's lack of synapse fires have already been laid on the feet of the coaches.
Bills Fan888 Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 I love McKelvin and his attitude. And I'm sure he will recover. But he lost the game. Sorry. I agree with you here. He lost the game but I was one of the people who wanted him to take it out.
