Yep, I just got it too. So much for the "we'll wait til Wednesday" stuff.

Well...JP...it was real...it was fun...but it wasn't real fun.

Re: Edwards to start, it is official

Yeah, what's going to be the excuse THIS week for why JP is sitting out?

"Uh..JP...he had a bad hair day and we dont think he'll get it straightened out in time, so...Trent's going to start."

i'm fine with Edwards starting. However, i feel like JP is getting shafted. If they are going to demote him for the rest of the season, they should sac up and admit it publicly.

Good luck to TE this week.

I agree. I am in favor of Trent Edwards but I think the way they are treating JP right now is crappy! I mean just say that Edwards is your guy and stop all the excuses and snow-balling

If they continute to win then that is great. I do however wish they would just say Trent is our guy for the season because we all know that is what it is. And honestly, at this point they probably should keep it that way. Nothing worse than flip flopping between QB's during the season.

Hopefully the offense finds the end zone at least two times this week.

Last Sunday wasn't a spectacular performance on paper for Trent Edwards, but consistent decision making and two victories in three NFL starts carries weight. Buffalobills.com has learned that Buffalo's offensive staff has elected to start the rookie signal caller at quarterback again this week against the Jets in the Meadowlands.

And.....

The rookie quarterback was almost flawless in his execution of the no huddle offense last week against the Ravens.
"He did a really good job, making the right calls on run plays and pass plays," said Lee Evans. "He passed the ball efficiently, finding guys over the middle. I think he did a really good job of knowing what he's seeing and just playing."

"We played a lot of no huddle snaps," said Jauron. "There are a lot of options at the ball. He's got some options up there and he has to get us in the right stuff and he did a nice job doing it. He didn't miss much."


One thing I don't understand is why the no-huddle did not appear until this week. JP and the offense had success last year with it.

Re: Edwards to start this week, it is official

I'm very curious what happens if Edwards continues to struggle and they actually lose to the Jets this week. Would we see JP? Or would we continue to see Edwards? If we do continue to see Edwards, then Jauron should just get some balls and make it ****ing official that he's the starter for the year!

I hope we win everygame he starts.

Re: Edwards to start this week, it is official

I want to see a breakout game for Trent.

No better place to do it than in the Meadowlands. Hey, JP broke out and put up some good stats, lets see if Trent can.

BTW, they're benching Pennington, I think our defense will be good to go since they're putting Clemens in.

That's the thing that bugs me. I don't feel that the coaches like JP and they have really treated him like ****. I feel that he got the major shaft from week 1, on. I just worry that we are going to be tossing another "Travis Henry" aside and that pisses me off.
