Seriously, no reason for that. Just f'ing leave Leonhard back there and let him get his 5 yards per return. At least he doesn't make mistakes. This is the f'ing Bills, there is no reason to get cute. Whenever we do, something bad happens.

Cromartie helped us lose the Raider game and he's pretty close to blowing this game too. This guy refuses to tackle.

Cromartie was out there because Leonhard was shook up from his hit on David Nelson the play before to break up the 3rd down pass.

Kerley is #2 behind Leonhard in the sure-hands dept. How many sure-handed punt returners do you want them to have on the roster?

he was in there because the jets got greedy and tried to make a big play. I knew as soon as he was back there that he was going to muff the ball... just let leonhard catch the ball from now on, we can't keep fumbling kicks and expect to win

I guess you can ignore the facts laid out clearly in the thread and bash the team if that makes you feel better...

See comment above. Rex said in his presser
that Jimmy had the wind knocked out of his on the previous play.

Rex said on his press conference that Leonhard got the wind knocked out of him, they had no one else to turn to to make the fair catch.

Because Rex and Westhoff had their heads up their a$$. The BS excuse is Leonhard had the wind knocked out of him, but I contend you put out a guy with good hands. I saw Cro back there and immediately started to worry. Cro then lived down to my expectations. How about Holmes or someone else with either good hands or past experience as a punt returner? Kyle Wilson comes to mind.

+1.

He really pissed me off today. Exactly the same situation as the Oak game and he almost gave the Jills the damn game on bacl-to-back plays.

After hocking down a roast beef sandwich rex said- hey Westy: white boy has no speed we need a spark... screw leonard gimme cro-magnon. Can you make it happen Westy?

And then after the muff... The best was on the cbs broadcast you could see leonard looking off into the angry distance as the muff was recovered... another cro-magnon special.

I mean how smart can a player be if after 6 child support orders he refuses to believe in the value of the rubber???????????????????

Could Revis go out there and make a fair catch?

Obviously, you don't want to risk injury. But, he's got to have better hands than Cromartie.

Kerley is injured and the coaching staff for some reason feels this is the best option.
