I know he fumbled the punt but for a guy to get zero reps in the entire game at reciever makes you think. Are we hiding this guy for the practice squad? He might of got hurt but I didnt hear anything. Did he intentionally fumble that punt? All reports say he never dropped anything in practice. Interesting and I apologize if he got hurt or I missed him at some point.

He got reps late in the game at WR. Bartel hit him in the feet at one point.

I would think it's more to do with the fact that they're giving Austin and Hurd all the reps they could to get them more ready to contribute this year since it's probably not likely that Danny will even make this team.

Amendola dropped a pass, and did not show his separation ability.

He slipped after tonight's game. I don't think he's a sure bet for a spot anymore

He didn't drop that pass. It was thrown behind him, and at his feet.

...and he only got three snaps at WR....one of which he had separation.

He screwed the pooch bigtime by fumbling, but wasn't given much of a chance to redeem himself.

The kid was probably nervous as all heck.

Let's let the preseason play out fully before we make an accurate assessment on him.

fumbled a punt and dropped a pass...not sure there's any reason to "hide" that from anyone

he definitely hasnt "made the team" as many suggested...he may in the end, but not if he has 3 more preseason efforts like tonight

I told people to chill out, he's camp fodder and probably a practice squad candidate, my question is why are people talking about this guy and not the great outing Miles Austin had...

No and if the Mods see it, we will deal with it.

Yeah, well I could have sworn that starting threads that are deliberately used to invoke negative responses was against the rules. My bad.

The first preseason game.

We will know a lot more by the end of the third one.

It should be interesting to see if he redeems himself next time.

Because it's all about comparisons. Who we can draw parallels to. That's really what matters most.

Amendola is Wes Welker and Miles Austin is Randal Williams.

Wes Welker >>> Randal Williams

Because the thread starter wanted to start a thread to diss Amendola.

Why don't you start a thread about Austin? He played a damn strong game tonight.

I don't think you'd find a soul on the board that thinks Amendola is better than Austin.

Makes for a nice strawman, though.

I agree

and for the record Amendola didnt look anything liek Welker tonight, and Miles Austin is eons more talented a WR than Randall Williams ever was, even though some dont want to see it

You can't be serious?

He sucked.

Brad Johnson Sucked.


The entire second string line sucked.


The entire second team defense sucked.


Special teams sucked except for Folk's FG. The rest of them sucked.


It is only preseason, but there should be a lot of guys worried about being cut, specifically Amendolia!

Absolutely, that's a ridiculous comparison.
