I love Vince Young.

I don’t mean to wish injury on anyone, but… I kind of hope Collins gets hurt so we can watch VY all year.

First play this year, same old VY… rolls out, terrible throw, behind the line of scrimmage, incomplete. They could be so bad.

2nd play. PICKED. Nowhere near his receiver. Thrown like a girl. HA.

by willyduer on Aug 9, 2009 8:47 PM EDT reply actions  

Vick's better

I hate Vick and think he’s overrated, but he’s better than VY. Just as inaccurate but at least he has a cannon and can do something good with it once in a while by accident. VY just throws like a girl and hands the ball to the other team. And whines and cries like a baby.

I agree

but the Bills always seem to care what their record is in preseason and try to win. Remember when they left their starters in for like 3 quarters in game 2 of the preseason against the Colts a few years back?

by shake n bake on Aug 9, 2009 9:23 PM EDT up reply actions  

oh shut up

he nearly threw it out of the end zone and the guy made a great effort to catch it in bounds.

I guess it’s nice that it couldn’t be picked… but the guy had been open the whole time since the goal line. It’s lucky that he ended up hitting him for the TD.

My bias against the stupid fade type throws (I think they’re a copout and require no talent) may shine through this analysis, though.

he got 4 feet in bounds!

they matter

there are two views i have

1. These qbs can get the win. That’s the most important thing. period.

2. At the end of the year you will see these stats and lets say it was 2 tds and 1 int, that’s the kind of QB you will see. If all of peytons 27 tds last season were ugly, it wouldn’t matter. it would be 27 tds.

They play each other every year

It’s a pretty long storied rivalry (albeit fairly streaky)

How can you not love a team that does this?

You're doing drugs Andrea.

I’m not sure how to respond to that.

Collinsworth has seemed competant

He'll be tested with the Patriots-Colts Sunday night game.

His crush on the 2007 Patriots was legendary.

You just can't hit him in the head

Pop him in the chest or waist. I actually understand and like the new rule. Makes the defense actually make a play on the guy, rather than just head-hunt.

Actually I agree with you

There are some terrible injuries that can result from those cracks

I agree with it too,

but there are similar rules that I don’t agree with, and I can never resist taking a shot at the NFL. My hatred of their rule makeing is when they started outlawing TD celebrations.

Got my first taste of football in some seven months.

Oh well, guess I’ll just watch some poker. That’s a sport, right?
