Despite the debacle in Arizona , it would be ridiculous for anybody to not be pleased with this team right now. 4-1 going into the bye? Who wouldn’t take that? This football team is a good one. If a few things fall into place, there is no reason they can’t contend for the AFC Title THIS year. New England lost its best player. Indy looks old. San Diego is struggling big time. Tennessee looks great now but has no track record either. The rest of the teams are in the same boat as the Bills.
Yet, I have one beef with this organization. It’s not Jason Peters. Granted, I think the OL would be a lot better if he was playing up to par, and probably would be if he hadn’t missed all of camp, but that falls on Peters just as much, if not more.
No, my one black eye with this organization right now is for them putting Angelo Crowell on IR days before the season started. We don’t need to rehash the details again; Crowell opted to have a procedure done just days before the opener that would force him out for 4-6 weeks. The Bills decided to end his season, and Bills career, by placing him on IR.
It wasn’t a football move, it was a personal move, and now as a result this team isn’t as good as it could be.
Keith Ellison has started this year.. Here is his numbers this year. 5 games, 12 tackles. ZERO sacks. ZERO interceptions.. ZERO quarterback pressures. ZERO forced fumbles. ZERO fumble recoveries. ZERO tackles for losses.
It goes without saying; he’s freegin TERRIBLE. Oh, and Blake Costanza, has two special teams tackles this year.
Meanwhile, by all reports from before and now, Crowell would be in the Bills starting lineup, likely by next week’s game againstSan Diego . If they don’t “IR” him, they have him for the last 10-11 games.
I HATE what the Bills did here. Ya, they taught Crowell a “lesson”. He probably losses millions now when he becomes a free agent next year.
Who cares! He was gone after this year anyway. Get the most you can from him now. The Bills are a better defense, a far better defense WITH him than without him. But our FO made it personal, and it was a terrible move for the team.
