i figured today would have been a great day to go to Training Camp today. It was a late afternoon session and the players were wearing full pads. Apparently other fans felt the same way. It was pretty packed today. But I was wrong. The Bills practiced on the grass field and in front of all the VIP people the entire practice!!! :mad:

This was the view that I and most other people saw.... :ill:

Or if you zoom in.... :ill:

I saw some things, but didn't get anything specific. From what I did happen to see, (wish I brought some binoculars), the offense looked putrid. The defensive line was getting a ton of pressure on both QBs and the WRs were dropping passes. Both QBs looked terrible too. I even saw Holcomb grab the WRs and chew them out. Losman screamed a few times too.


I did find out later on that the reason why the players practiced over there was because their families were there. That makes sense, but still....throw us a freaking bone. At least give us a decent view to see some of the 11-on-11 drills. :mad:

No problem. Oh, I did get to see Losman hand and Holcomb hand off though. That was fun. :jig:

And the special teams work was even more fun. :dance: :ill:

I'm sorry, but I'm just sick of you and some other hijacking Bills threads and making them about me. You know me, I hardly ever get food at the Bills camp. I'm more worried about getting right thru and going to watch the practice and take notes and photos for camp. So, do u have anything related to this thread? If so...go for it. :up:

Did you see this Mikey?
-----

With J.P. Losman standing beside him Holcomb addressed the receiving corps shortly after practice.
"He told us, 'Don't forget we were ranked 29th in offense and the way we practiced today it showed,'" said Sam Aiken. "So let's come out tomorrow and step it up."
"He just told us to keep our heads up and not worry about it," said Wilson. "It's just one day and that we'll get in the meeting room and get things corrected and come back out and have a better day tomorrow."

Maybe the players would respect Losman more if he were the one doing the talking.

Yet i could see how Losman would feel comfortable deferring to the older, more experienced veteran.

yeah i saw that a little bit. But don't forget that Holcomb had no right to talk. He was as much of the problem. Some of his passes were absolutely horrible. and Losman overthrew the receivers a couple times. :(

Yes, it would be the easier thing to do, but he has to step up imo.
