in another thread i said i wasnt goin to get into it but i have a minute before i have to leave for work so i might as well fit in as much as possible
bell was a stud in 2006 before being moved to a position in which he clearly wasnt built and comfortable to play.....bell is back in his natural position and IMO has earned the starting job....PT didnt lose it, bell just earned it
PT didnt play the first half so he was completely fresh for the second half......you say he had an IV...thats the first ive heard of it but he was fresh against a defense that didnt want to play.....he got 3 or 4 big runs near the end of the game that amounted in nearly all of his yardage....it wasnt that he was consistantly getting big gainers, he was getting stopped and then all of a sudden, he broke free
the bills defense was ranked 31st against one of the all time best passing offenses the league has ever seen......when the game was on the line, do you really think they were concerned with stopping the run? they were worried about stopping drew brees and we continued to run the ball......i will credit sean payton and our offensive line with that.....but PT made a great move on his first TD and i'll give him credit for that
the reason i fail to acknowledge PT as our best back is because i dont think he is....i think hes average....i think he does a lot of things well but not one thing great.....bell and reggie both have their talents.
alright im late i'll finish this when i get home

A few more things and I'll be done schooling you.
What in the heck gives you the idea that the Bills D didn't want to play in the 2nd half? They were down THREE POINTS? Seriously, Canton? I actually laughed out loud at that comment, because of how asanine it was. I won't even continue on that comment.
Secondly, it wasn't ME who said he had an IV. It was THE FRIGGEN HEAD COACH!!! Did you watch the clip? I just repeated what SEAN PAYTON said. Again, I will not elaborate anymore on your comment about this, because it isn't worth wasting anymore breath over.
How can you NOT credit a guy for playing sick? You never did. All you said in another post is that "he played well". That is a huge understatment. He was given the rock and he shined. If Mike Bell had done the same thing Pierre did in the 2nd half against a "tired, worn down team", you would be shining his jock for him.
Finally, PT does a lot of things well, but not one thing great? He finds the end zone......A LOT. Regardless of any other stat he puts up, that is the most important. 11 TD's in his last 10 games says that he AT LEAST does that great. There is no lame argument that you can come up with that can disprove that. Good luck trying. |
