Where have all the whipping boys gone

[Wally The Barber]

Before every season starts we always select a whipping boy on our roster but the pickings are getting pretty slim


Ah, for the days of Bennie Anderson! I am sure the Dolphins miss him too!(lol)

Josh Reed was looking like a shoe in till he started catching the football last year.

Just when you thought you had Coy Wire all lined up for this season, he makes a few bone crunching tackles and the media refers to him as the next Sam Mills.

John McCargo was leading the group but he screwed it all up against Atlanta! Who was that guy? If he puts a few games together he MAY be lost from our WB list forever.

Tim Anderson is still on the roster but unless we pick up a new DT he isn't going anywhere! He seems to be the overall favorite.

Jim Leohard was looking like a shoe in but I am afraid I need to remove him from the list.The Media seems to love the guy also and they actually gave his some credit against the Falcons.

Surely you guys can think of somebody?

Perhaps you wonder WHY we need to have anyone on our list?

Its an old Buffalo tradition that goes back to the 60's.

I once started a thread on the worst Bills of all time and the list was long! I think Walt Patulski won by a few votes!

Its a REALLY great sign when you run out of WB's.

If this keeps up we may need to retire the label and start a hall of fame instead!

Peerless has taken a lot of heat on the board.

Re: Where have all the whipping boys gone

Tim Anderson is still the whipping boy- he's the one player I have yet to see anyone on the board defend.

McCargo- first of all, I don't see how one mediocre pre-season game gets him off the hook for anything. Second I don't think he was ever a whipping boy per se- fair or unfair, the organization has a lot riding on McCargo and some of us are just frustrated that he does not appear to be ready for the situation that was forced on him.

McCargo looked alot better we just need to keep him healthy then Timmy can retain the crown!

Give it a few regular season games. Langston Walker will be the OL WB.

Price will be the WR WB, Wire in spite of all that will be a D WB if he starts, and I have full confidence that McCargo and Youboty will be full fledged bona fide WBs too oh, about week 6.

Rule Anderson out. He's a backup and only so much whipping can be done for backups.

So, patience!

Tripplett was a no-show for most of last season and he's been a no-show again in pre-season. He wasn't in on many plays, but I saw him easily steered aside by the RG several times against ATL.

You don't like McGee, Whitner and Simpson?

With the depth at DT, I sure hope you are wrong!

He said the D line- DE's and DT's. Poz is an LB and the rest of those guys are DB's- safeties and corners. They don't play DL.

d-LINE Wally....


Tim Anderson is still a classic whipping boy... Peerless is earning the distinction.

Coy Wire used to be a whipping boy for many but he seems to have won some of those people over. Reed was as well, but he too seems to be progressing.

I am sure we will see some new DT's soon and they will need to be good, REAL GOOD!
