The Bills practiced on the grass field today with the hot sun beating down on them. They worked in full pads today and there was some nice hard hitting. The coaches had the team work on some special teams, 7-on-7, and 11-on-11 drills.

Re: BillsZone Training Camp Report: August 9, 2005
Great job as usual, Mikey.
Questions: With Joe Burns struggling to run the ball, is Goldsberry doing anything that might win him the backup FB job? Or is Burns just too good on special teams? Are any of the other UDFAs - Gause, Leonhard, Ezekiel, etc. - looking good enough to stick?Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

Re: BillsZone Training Camp Report: August 9, 2005
Mike, awesome!! Highlight of my day getting the training camp update, it is very appreciated. With that said I am pumped about Lionel Gates, I was hoping he'd be the number 2 guy. Like his size and ability. I've said it everytime it's been relevant, the Bills may have had the best offseason of any team by getting Holcomb as the backup. No one should underestimate what a great pickup. If Miami had gotten him he'd be the starter for sure. TD made another great move with Parish, to bad his buddy got hurt or it could be scary out there.

Re: BillsZone Training Camp Report: August 9, 2005
Hey Mikey, based on your observations when JP misfires in your opinion is it more of not having the timing down with his receivers, a lack of experience issue such as rushing his throws, is he just mis-firing or a combination?

Originally posted by WillisMcNasty21Ill give ya my 2 cents...I noticed he has a tendency to underthrow at times. Sometimes he just puts it at the recievers feet, which is better than an overthrow. I dont know why he does it, Id say he does it once in every 6-8 throws.....Ive rarely see overthrows. I wouldnt say lack of experience is the cause, but maybe lack of complete confidence at this point (which i guess is similar)....I think he'll come around though.
