    "If You Perform, You'll play."

    Dick said that in his interview with BB.com. Is that a good way to go about things, or is his philosophy flawed?

    Edwards got the nod against the Jets, played well, earned time until his injury. JP came in, played well against the Jets, earned time against the Bengals, played well, earned time against the Fins. Will this cause our QBs to play mental games in their head, knowing if they don't "perform" in the short term, they won't play?

    Well, motivation is never a bad thing. For example, if your boss told you in a performance review that you would be fired if you didn't start producing, i bet you'd work twice as hard for the sake of keeping your job.

        Losman does not play well when he does not have competition and hopefully he will keep his head in the game and play well when facing tougher defenses but I think Jauron has to do what he thinks is best for the team not the QBs. If a QB can not read the defense and needs to be pulled so be it. Losman has shown he is willing to work, study playbooks and film so hopefully this will make him a better QB.

          Does that mean that Dick packs his bags and leaves town?

            JP did well last year and had NO competition. The problem this year has been Fairchild. Why couldn't the offense be doing stuff like they're doing now at the BEGINNING of the season?

            Not to mention the defense has become incredible since the Pats game.

              I mentioned this weeks ago...he had outs...he used one of them. He can go back and fourth at will. I dont think it happens. I think unless jp is injured JP will play out the rest of the year. I think it has brought out the best in both players...not the mind games or the locker room split or anything else that some have tried use. If I am D Juron I dont want to saddle what could be my last NLF coaching job on an unknown commodity like Trend Edwards. I lobby for JP. IMHO.

                Hey Goob,

                Losman didn't play well last year. He simply had a bunch of deep throws for TDs. Otherwise he was piss poor.

                  Not that he had much help on offense. What with Price being washed-up, Royal having the dropsies, when he wasn't staying home to block, issues at RG, and McGahee's lousy attitude.

                    Except for the RB attitude, not much has changed. Receivers still suck, running game still struggling, although not because of the RB. RG is still an issue. And the same staff of course.

                            Mr. Statguy ,JP was ranked 11 last year. Qb rating of 84.9 . How do you like them stats?

                            You might want to twist them around to fit your opinion. Then again that would mean that stats are meaningless which would also mean none of the stats you put up mean anything either

                              It's great. It's also ironic coming from someone that has allergies towards stats and breaks out in hives when anyone else cites a single stat.

                              Here's one for ya, he was one of the worst red zone QBs in the league.

                              So now, which do you think is more important, QB rating which was inflated by three games vs. three of the worst teams in football last year leaving Losman poor otherwise statistically in that area, OR, his consistent inability to do much with the football once he crossed the opponent's 20?

                              Tick, tick, tick, ...

                              Hurry, time's running out!



                              I didn't know that you thought Losman was all that good last season.
