    Rashad Baker is coming along nicely...

    Troy Vincent hasn't been the same this year and has been getting burned quite a bit. Now with the shoulder bothering him again, it's time for our young safeties to step up. Nice job by Rashad Baker yesterday. He had a helluva game covering his receivers and making some huge plays.

    R. Baker: 2 tackles, 2 PD, 1 Interception

    Perhaps it is time to see Mr. Vincent take a back seat to the young talent.

    Ugh, has Troy contributed anything positive since we signed him?

      I'm glad Donahoe read my 2004 mock draft and decided to pick him up.

          Mikey is such a flip-flop. Where was this thread the first 2 games? Oh wait, Troy was awsome. Fairweaterhed fans

              Oh and just for the record...I have always been a big fan of Rashad Baker. I used to brag about him all the time at Training camp and am a big fan of his.

                I'm saying he was in those games , so where was this thread then? Not everyone has been great on this D.

                The reason why Troy hasn't made more plays lately is because teams have been running against us. Baker (and you know I like the undrafted dude) had that INT because the Chiefs abandoned the run and decided the pass after Troy went down and they were behind.

                Just like Op said, it's been 1 game (the Fletcher thread) and Baker has been burned too. Don't be so quick to overreact. Troy has been one of the reasons why we had a top pass D aside from the reason that teams would rather run against us. Troy was also awsome against the fins.

                    i think he's performed pretty well....How many years did we go with no ints for a FS?

                      Yeah Mikey I see your point about Vincent but I agree with justa (for once). Vincent's past his prime but he still has some gas left in the tank. This is exactly how a football team should be run- Vincent is one of the smartest guys in the NFL and knows the game. His physical abilities are declining, but Baker is right there learning from him and will be ready to step up when the time comes.

                        I agree with that. But then again, it's all moot if Vincent's shoulder injury is bad.

                          Vincent seems pretty prone to injury in his Bills tenure...

                            Please tell me that comment was in jest. If not, perhaps watching the games would help.

                              That's the thing that worries me. His injury last year was a freak thing. Then his shoulder was bothering him earlier this year and now they said it's the same one that healed up during the bye week, hurts again.
