I guess Kelly and Jaworski being impressed with Edwards isn't good enough for you.

[HHURRICANE]

We found our starting QB. The pick was a bad throw but should have never been called. A field goal wins us the game so shoot Fairchild, not Edwards.


Kelly said he was in "awe." Jaworski couldn't believe the poise. Edwards stood there with the pass rush patiently waiting to make throws and when he didn't have what he wanted he used his TE's, alot.

Did he make mistakes? Yes. But for a rookie playing his second game on Monday Night?

The kid is our starter and putting JP back on the field is a mistake.

The Lickers use to praise Jaws/Kelly when they were giving oral to JP.

Losman never had pocket presence and never will. Edwards is making that little half step here and there to make his throws. He's also not afraid to take a hit to make a throw.

Did anyone see Losman pouting on the sideline? The guy is a douche.

It's only a matter of time before he becomes a locker room cancer.

I don't need Kelly or Jaworski to say they are impressed with TE. I thought he looked GOOD out there for this only being his 2nd NFL game (and I'm a fan of JP's). The playcalling is still suspect though, and I'm not giving a pass on that.

Actually it is enough for me thanks. Both of those guys know 10 times more about football than I do and even I see that Edwards has the tools and smarts. BTW, and Im not saying he will be Brady, but this is EXACTLY how Brady started out as a first time starter. Check downs and intermediate throws. He rarely went deep. Actually the deep ball is something Brady has only recently been completing with regularity. The hardest thing for a QB to understand as a rookie is pocket presence and progressions which is why everyone is so impressed. Edwards is doing the things that is usually most difficult to pick up. Once he gets his timing down with Lee the big plays will come.

Yea well, who wants to believe them over all the great football minds we have here...

Great post. The number one reason that I am impressed with Trent is how he handles the pocket, sees and feels the pressue but get's that extra second to deliver the ball where he needs to. I don't think you can entirely teach that and that's why I don't see a future for JP.

He looked good last night for what the defense was giving him. Dallas had some seriously blanket coverage on the WRs last night and our running game wasn't doing a hell of a lot to help open things up in the secondary. On a lot of those checkdown plays that people are complaining about every WR was covered solid. Edwards didn't panic and just made the throws he could. He had that one bad pick towards the end but was pretty mistake free the rest of the night.

Now that he has the receivers who can do it. That's what the Bills don't have. JP and Trent share that disadvantage, but Trent has the better intangibles, right now, as a rookie.

exactly. Trent seemed totally comfortable in the pocket, unlike how JP looks. TE never looked panicked except on that int.

Re: I guess Kelly and Jaworski being impressed with Edwards isn't good enough for you

What exactly did Edwards do with that comfort, besides throw to the checkdown on third and long? Being comfortable in the pocket is great, but it's a means to an end. It certainly isn't the goal. Edwards sure looked poised but he was incredibly unproductive.

nobody will deny that Edwards played a great game against the crappy jets. Of course everyone is gonna praise him for that but his Holcomb like performance isn't gonna garner any praises from them today.

Re: I guess Kelly and Jaworski being impressed with Edwards isn't good enough for you

I'll tell you why it won't sway many: they've also praised JP, but none of the haters ever cared. In fact, Jaworski even said he felt JP has been playing well. Edwards didn't play very well and needs to learn to take some risks. He needs to sit when JP gets back, plain and simple. I don't care how much you like him: he's not ready to be a NFL starter.
