The Buffalo Bills Training Camp has officially begun and this time, something was different. That's right, it was Terrell Owens' first Training Camp practice as a member of the Buffalo Bills. If yesterday was any indictation, T.O. will definitely enjoy being a Buffalo Bill. The fans came out in droves, as St. John Fisher College was packed for both practices. Many of them were wearing #81 jerseys and screaming his name or cheering when he caught the ball. The excitement from the crowd actually reminded me of a home pre-season game. All that was missing was the tailgating. As for the practice itself, Coach Jauron had the players start off slow, by not wearing pads and not allowing much contact. The team worked on a few special teams drills, individual drills with their own units, 7-on-7 and of course the 11-on-11 full team drill.......

This is the shortest this thread has ever been. It's pretty quiet in here today.... :shocked:

Optimistic homers don't play well here anymore. :homer:

Quick. Mention someone missed a tackle or catch, so the thread can be 6 pages long.

Personally, I'm very grateful for all the reporting you do. It's outstanding. :bf1:

[ServoBillieves]

Excellent report as usual.

Heard Reggie is turning heads from a buddy of mine, also that Stevie is making some great catches but Josh has been pretty quiet so far. Trents been doing great behind a shoddy line, and with Wood and Levitre missing time I'm sticking by my prediction that Kirk Chambers starts this year.

[nateodoms'bff]

Great read! Many thanks from a guy who wishes I could be there.

My question fro you is the O-Line? How did they look? Is Eric Wood in camp, or is he holding out as well? It sounds like they were running well behind Walker on the left side, something I think many "experts" seem to overlook.

Defensive Line play? and the obvious, SLB.

Thanks again for the report. Looking forward for the updates!

Thanks Mikey...I will be at camp next Monday and Wednesday. Hoping to somehow get tickets to the night practice next Tuesday...Hopefully will see you next week...Just was offered two tickets to the opener...I am seriously thinking of coming up for it.

[HHURRICANE]

Awesome job Mikey!!!!

If Yobouty doesn't get hurt last year he might have been one of the stars on D. Let's hope this is his year.

I heard the no huddle was for real and it apears that it is.

[TigerJ]

At this point I'm going to give the crappy performance by the backup QBs too much weight. I'll chalk it up to offseason rust they have to shake off. Clear.y the personnel people in the Bills' front office make a calculated gamble when they did not try to obtain a grizzled veteran QB. We can only hope they don't get burned by that decision.

[Michael82]

Hargrove, I have always liked Reggie Corner and think that he will push for the nickel job and if he doesnt get it...he will do well at #4. As for Steve Johnson. i don't get why he gets so much love. But I do agree with you. He's making plays and looks like he may push for the #3 or #4 WR job.

[Michael82]

The OL looks very weak and is getting pushed aside in the middle a lot. Once Levitre and Wood get here...I think it will look a lot better!

Youboty impressed me last year in training camp too. He's a really good CB and would make it easier to let Terrence McGee walk after the season. If only he could stay healthy.

Yeah, I was surprised how much they are using the No-Huddle in camp. Every other time I have been to camp, the offense huddles up before every play and it seems to make the practice drag a bit. They aren't doing that this year and it definitely makes practice go by quicker. :up:

[Mr. Miyagi]

Good stuff Mikey. Thanks for your tireless reporting and dedication! :miyagi:
