    Edwards = Feet Of Stone

    He's Bledsoesque in his footwork.

    Anyone notice the second Losman came in, Revis stopped blitzing off the corner ? Revis was probably thankfull, since he was probably worn out hitting the stationary Edwards.

    If Losman isn't the future, so be it. I understand the concerns with him.

    But anyone touting Edwards as the next big thing is kidding themselves. This guy can't move and the injury was no surprise. It's all over his college resume.

    Cleveland may be forced to start Brady Quinn, after wasting $$ and draft picks on him. I'll take Derek Anderson over Edwards any day.

      I disagree. He avoided more than one sack and does rollouts. He's no Bledsoe.

          I still root for the team and support whoever is QB at the moment but Edwards needs to change his game or he'll get killed before he does anything in the NFL.

          He seemed oblivious to the corner blitz even after getting drilled a dozen times. QB's lacking mobility are going the way of the Dodo.

            How in the world can anyone say that Trent is or isn't the future? The kid has started 4 games! Frankly, I am impressed with how he handles himself on the field and I believe he will continue to get better!
            Go Bills!
            Go Sabres!

            JP Losman, your time is up!

              No he didn't. He kept throwing it to the hot route where the blitzer was.

                I just want to know, where was he suppose to go. Take the snap and immediately start running to his right. Each and every down, since thats how many times they blitzed. Also, i didnt see a running lane for him to take off for.

                If hes suppose to call protections, then i put blame on him. First and foremost, i blame the coaches. Roll him out. Draw to that side. Quick out. Something.

                I give TE 25% of the blame.

                  What people really should be *****ing about with Edwards is his ugly interceptions that he throws each game. 5 for the year now, in 5 games. And they are always ugly ones that shouldn't be thrown.

                    No one said he is a bust. I for one think that Trent can be an exceptional QB in this league despite his stone feet.

                      I can handle those this year. Rookies dont see everything clearly. The pick he threw, the Jets had nobody on the line. How do you key off of that. 5 guys are getting 5 yards headstarts at you. He thought he had the single on the right when it was really on his left.

                      I want him to take more control if hes back in there. Dictate more.

                        I think Edwards moves well in the pocket, but not nearly as well as JP. I don't think he is Beldsoesque. The main problem today was blitz pickup. How many tmes did they send Revis off the corner??? He had a good 3 or 4 free shots at Edwards.

                        This comes down to coaching I think. Fairchild must make them pay for corner blitizing by calling quick slants for the slot recievers. The recievers must also read the coverage and adjust their routes.

                          Better to have stone feet (which he doesn't) than a stone head.

                            People always favor the incumbent versus the veteran in Buffalo, it seems. Let's face it, if you want to compare Losman to Edwards than you must admit that Losman's ability to scramble is far superior to that of Trent's.

                              Blown protection caused a majority of the sacks, it's a work in progress.
