All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

We met him once in a hotel in Buffalo and got his autograph. He's a nice guy and I was always rooting for him.
The only thing I have against him is that he didn't get the job done on the field. If he can be successful on some West Coast NFC team that doesn't affect the Bills, more power to him.

Not that it matters, but the year he started all 16 games, he really wasn't that bad and got better as time went on. It was the next season that they started dicking him with Edwards and the train came off the tracks.

it's Dicks MO to force players and coaches to play into his philosophy instead of finding ways to use their strengths.
The Bills organization screwed Losman by starting him at the beginning of his second year. He wasn't ready. They stil had Bledsoe and they should have at least started the season with bledsoe.
Another of Donahoes stupid moves.
more than jauron screwing him, mularkey threw him to the wolves in a sunday night game after a broken leg and asked him to beat the pats (at the height of their dominance). His first pass was a perfect floater to a patriot linebacker. and then it was followed up with him kicking the ball out of his own hands.
He was a raw QB that definitely needed more time to mature and he needed a real QB to guide him. Bledsoe had no interest in helping him and for the most part kept making the same mistakes himself. So it's not that great.
Good for him, I've always liked Losman's character on and off the field. It's too bad things didn't work out for him here. I remember back in '07 when he started the community beautification thing, that was a classy thing to do. Comparing that with the acts of a guy like Lynch, and it's not hard to have a soft spot for this guy. I say good luck to him. JMO.

Oh, wait. When people were arguing on here day and night and I was one of the few that said that putting Losman out there was one of the stupidest things to do where were you to support me?
Again, we have another example of a kid that was over drafted, over hyped and under prepared. None was his fault but people treated him like crap. I hope he succeeds.
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
the thing was that bledsoe was so maddeningly bad at the end that the only natural reaction was, "START HIM!!! HE CAN'T BE AS BAD" but he wasn't an NFL ready QB. He didn't play in a pro system, he played at tulane and left a bigger program. these were all knocks that needed time to fix.
I remember just being fed up with bledsoe at the end. double patting the ball and just standing back there forever. I remember wanting shane matthews to start. the whole thing is just better if we forget it ever happened.
Now 2 of our first round draft picks are in Seattle.
BTW, if Losman was started too early in his second year, what about Trent Edwards, who started his rookie year...Losman was a 1st round pick that started 8 games in his second year. Edwards was a third round pick that started 9 games in his ROOKIE year. I'd say that Edwards has more claim to that excuse, but I don't think you'd hear either of these guys make that excuse...and guess what? If we draft a QB high next year, he'll probably be "starting too soon" as well.

Yeah...all that and if the defense stops an unknown RB at home this team makes the playoffs and all of Bledsoe's habits get ignored and fans wouldn't have been as quick to want him cut.
