Omar Kelly said on his twitter: I don't want to alarm you all too much, but CB Vontae Davis is limping around the locker room. Don't know what that means at this point. When asked if Benny Sapp gonna continue to be the nickel, Sparano said "we'll see." Hint at Vontae's issues. Not sure what's going on, but If he's hurting and has to sit then we're officially screwed worse than last year in the secondary. He has by far been the bright spot, especially against Atlanta. I'm prepared that we'll be giving up some long TDs and huge pass plays, so I won't flip out as much as last season. We better have a lot of games scoring more than 30 points. Hopefully he's just cramped or something, not like they'll tell us. Just like with Long wearing a knee brace, we won't know anything until Sunday probably.
It could mean that Sapp could compete with J. Allen and Smith for the 2nd CB position. Or it could mean Vontae's injured. Or it could mean nothing. Sometimes I miss the days of not knowing every single thing that happens at camp or in practices. The second a player is limping at practice it goes up on Twitter, then is turned into a blog entry, then into a cover story. We all assume the worst, when in reality it could be nothing. If you've ever played football (or any sport) you know that there's days when you're limping and two days later you're fine. I love getting information quickly, but it can have its disadvantages.
F*** it, throw a knee brace on every single Dolphin so none of the media or Bills coaches can tell who the hell will play week 1. Sparano: "M'kay guyz. I'm gonna need ya all ta limp this week."
I know I am day to day with headaches and cross eyedness due to all of the movement and commotion going on...
WTH is Omar doing in the locker room anyway? Go get us some real news instead of scaring the ba-jezuz out of everyone. VD will be fine.Is that a oxymoron?
LOL, I friggin hate this twitter bu****, hate it. If you take twitter awar from Omar Kelly he is nothing more then, nada. If he really did not want to alarm anyone about a player ' limping " then I ask you, why the hell did he tweet it ? This has turned into who gets to his phone the fastest with the tweets and who puts his own special twist on the tweet. Neither Omar Kelly or Salguero know the least little thing about football, period. Now you know why Parcells was the way he was with the press and why Sparano is the same way. These reporter clowns take something and tweet it, extrapolate some, then sit back and enjoy watching the chaos they have created in doing so. Loved especially their tweets from all of camp. This one is working with the ones Oline, that one is working with the ones Oline. LOL it was a farce,thorough farce. The ones that are there now worked as a unit since the start of camp. AFTER sometime doing drills then YES, this one went to the ones for a few plays, that one went to the ones for a few plays, thats it. The only switching on a regular basis was with Grove and Berger. One day one would start, next day the other one would start. Other then that, its complete BS created by two clowns that love stirring the pot. Both of them are symbols of the meaning of the word " Clown "
you're right. Even if he did see Vontae, that doesn't really mean anything. Some of us limp around when we sleep awkwardly. This new age way of bringing updates to all of us with no editorial process to hinder it has led to nothing but hysteria and inaccurate statements.
I think their somewhat responsible for how our own forum has gone somewhat nutso...their reporting created a false perception that we were having a bad training camp....not buyin that, especially considering how hard we work in the offseason and the type of people running this team...I think the preseason games were completely different than whats happening on the practice field and how this team's infrastructure is being laid out... Parcells and co. are too smart for these morons to get consise analysis..their out of their league.
Only because he got hit in the face with a little thing I like to call reality!!! edit: and if anyone says "When you said little thing I thought you were going to talk about your ***** next" I will get super pissed, then laugh, then cry.
Me too, because if we lose that game, against a truly s**t team, no one here can say "Stop panicking. Stop overreacting. We are so awesome you are dumb to think we look bad. We're fine! This game didn't mean anything!" anymore. If we look like crap AGAINST crap, we'd actually be able to have some serious discussions about things. Now, if we WIN, it just means we aren't utter crap. No great news there. So we REALLY have to win this game, in my mind. Because if you cain't beat da Jillz, you hain't got a hope in hail 'gainst them Vikes 'n the effin' Jets.
