    Losman staying in Buffalo



    ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP)—J.P. Losman doesn’t appear to be going anywhere despite his request that the Buffalo Bills trade him.
    “J.P.’s on this roster and he’s a part of this organization. And we anticipate J.P.’s going to be on this team,” Bills chief operating officer, Russ Brandon, said Wednesday.
    “He’s here and that’s how we’re approaching it,” Brandon added.
    Losman has one year left on his contract, but wants out of Buffalo after losing the starting quarterback job to rookie third-round pick Trent Edwards last season. It was the second time in three years Losman lost the No. 1 job. Veteran journeyman Kelly Holcomb beat him out midway through the 2005 season.
    I don’t think J.P.’s sulking here. He’s a competitor,” Brandon said. “We had conversations with him like we do all of our guys who are back in for workouts. And we don’t anticipate any sulking from J.P.”
    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

    I think we need more competition at the QB position. Maybe we could bring KH back to compete with JP for backup.

        Keep Losman because at some point during the season he will be our starter.

          He only comes in for us when we need to throw for 60+ yards and 1,0000 feet high with seconds left on the clock.

            Or in relief when TE inevitably gets injured.

                Maybe, but I truly, honestly, believe he will still be here come week 1. He's our best option at backup, really. Who knows, too - Edwards could get hurt, giving JP his shot to perform again. Buttttt he'll probably blow it, again.

                    I'm thinking that both Edwards and Losman will be backups in the NFL, jmo. I see the Bills drafting another QB next year. Losman is all brawn and no brains, Edwards is all brains and no brawn.

                        Losman or Edwards would be an upgrade over any QB that Miami has on their roster.

                          Believe me I can't wait. JP has every advantage including starting against the 2nd and 3rd strings in pre-season.

                          I think Trent will show why he's the starter but I'll wait to see it happen before gloating.

                            I just wish we could some how get TE's brain in Losman's body..
