    Several shots were called

    Coach Chan Gailey on the team's offensive struggles: "We’re trying to find the right combination of people and schemes to get this thing right. It’s not a quick fix proposition. We had several shots downfield called and we didn’t get them off. We were a bad offense in the second half."
    Just so we don't start THAT debate again.

    Re: Several shots were called

    Trent Edwards should have been benched at half time, how many QB's lost there job today?

    Vince Young
    Jason Cambell
    Matt Moore
    David Garrard

    might be a few more, I would take any of these guys over Trent Edwards but he still plays why?

      Because apparently Buddy Nix thinks Torell Troup is a better option than Jimmy Clausen.

        I don't think the problem was ever that shots weren't called. I think that when they are called, half the time Edwards chickens out and checks down, and the other half the time he gets sacked before he can get the ball off.

          Well, I watched every one of Jimmy Clausen's games at ND and I never once saw him play S/T. Terrell Troup played a lot of S/T today. So there.

            Vince Young did not lose his job today. Fisher already said he's the starter next week.

            As for Edwards maybe it's time to stop pushing a string.

            I'm over him, the offensive line, and Evans.

            Unless I am tied to a chair there is no reason to waste anymore time with these guys.

              There you have it folks. Special Teams are more important than franchise QBs.

                Trent Edwards has finally united the fan base about the Bills QB position.

                  I think Claussen will be a worse NFL QB than Brady Quinn.

                  So skipping on him isn't a problem in my opinion.

                  There were QBs available in FA though that would do better than what we have.

                    Worse than Brady Quinn still falls under the "better than Edwards" category, so he'd be an improvement.

                    And I think he'd have put up more than 14 point in 2 games with us.

                      Oddly enough, Brady Quinn is a carbon copy of Trent.

                          We weren't going to draft Clausen just to be a solid NFL QB at best...and an overwhelming number of NFL talent evaluators saw him as that...our strategy was to try and build a team and make the QB the final piece....similar to the Jets...unlike the past where we got the QB, the QB struggled in the wrong situation and then once we had the team around the QB, the QB was messed up beyond repair

                            Yes we are united until Fitz starts and than we'll have the Brohm debate raging.

                            The funniest part is that Fitz is the least of our problems. We could do alot worse as far as a backup QBs goes.

                            Trent is done here. Not all is fault but isn't part of the solution either.
