CHARLOTTE, N.C. - The Buffalo Bills have no timetable when they will name a starting quarterback. But their preseason opener against the Carolina Panthers tonight in Bank of America Stadium will help bring some clarity to the competition.
Kelly Holcomb will start and play the first quarter and part of the second before giving way to J.P. Losman. Craig Nall is still nursing a pulled hamstring and won't play.
The quarterbacks have been battling for the top spot since the offseason. No one will win the starting job based on one game, but tonight's contest will be viewed as their first true test. "Obviously, we've pointed all the time toward full-contact scrimmage and this is it," said coach Dick Jauron, who will make his Bills sideline debut tonight. "This is almost the only chance you get to do it with a quarterback. So here we go."
