Another Brandon Lloyd Thread

We all cheered at the bar too...1 catch can be the start of good things for him and the Skins but I'm highly skeptical.

I think the "cheering" was more like the combined sarcasm of 90 thousand plus. I know it was at my house. Not so much way to go as "Congratulations, you finally caught a pass this year... and it's week 5."

That was some of it - the other part was when you are up two scores and your fifth receiver gets into it, there's a wave of confidence that flows over you. You think "if this guy's rolling over you, you ain't comin' back, Lions."

I think that's it exactly.

Regarding the crowd reaction, I thought the crowd reacted in almost a surprised kind of way to his catch.

1 catch, 9 yards, and here we are talking about this bum yet again. I don't get it. :doh:


He's on the team and I'd like to stay positive. It was a nice play on 2nd and 10 that helped us get a 1st down.

Except we didn't get a first. We punted.

Sorry wrong, actually we punted.

9 yards on 2nd and 10 helps to get a first down. Is it his fault on 3rd?

WISE GUYS!!!!!

[/list]Actually, if you read Lloyd's lips when he and Moss are celebrating the Rogers pick-six he says "he caught it, he caught it" sarcastically (9:50 mark in BJS highlights). Not sure if that makes him the pot or the kettle, but funny either way.

I agree we should try harder to get Lloyd the ball, if for no other reason than trying to get a better return on our investment. I want to see what happens when he's thrown to five or more times in a game.

That's why coaches make football decisions & GMs & owners make $ decisions. Throwing the ball to Loyd just because we paid him a lot doesn't help the team.

Recievers have to work to know their plays & routes, and then work to get open. As we saw in the Mia. game, throwing him the ball can have serious consequences.

Freddy just made the best point in the thread. Just because we gave him money doesen't mean he is going to preform for us. He caught one ball and had a 2nd effort and picked up more yards. If the coaches think he should play then he should play, if not then keep him on the bench. Don't fix it if it ain't broke and right now I believe our record is 3-1.

LOL not trying to be a smartass but you said:

Sorry if I misunderstood.
