Positives and negatives to keeping Drew

[BillsFever]

Negatives

32 years old

13 Million Dollars to keep him next year

More TO's then TD's in the last 4 years

50+ sacks each year in all of them years

2-18 in his last 20 attempts against winning teams on the road.

19 wins out of his last 65 tries

No leadership qualities

Acts like a zombie who doesn't care when he's out on the field

Career .500 QB

Just as many TO's as TD's over his 12 year career

10 TD's and 20 TO's this year

34 TD's and 38 TO's in his two years here

Can't get rid of the ball when the blitz is coming

Gets blitzed all the time because he can't get rid of the ball when the blitz is coming

Positives

He has a strong arm
He is a good father

[Novacane]

I heard he's a good husband too!

[stuckincincy]

Yep. Why they rolled the dice on Bled and didn't move up a few positions for Ramsey escapes me to this date. I guess they had thier eye on Ryan Denney.

'Course, the same brain trust let a guy like OG Steinbeck who coulda' played for 'em for 10 years fall...

[Novacane]

Another negative.......................season ticket sales will drop. There are more Bills fans that do not believe in him anymore than there are that do.

Positive -

he makes me laugh

[Stewie]

Positives:
(Assuming he renegotiates)
-Sweet arm.
-Can hand off well to Travis Henry.
-Can hand off well to Willis McGahee.
-Can be very effective with playaction passes.
-Is the best QB on the roster, and until that changes, he's the best chance we have.


Negatives:
-Extreme lack of mobility.
-Needs a simpler offense with easy checkdowns. (This shouldn't be hard to overcome with a creative coordinator).
-Career .500 QB.
-Streaky player and confidence is down.

This year he has not played well, but look at his suroundings. The fact is that he has thrown for 2800 yards completed almost 60% of his passes, and 13 TD 11 thowing 2 rushing with a hurt eric moulds, a flukey reed, a slow bobby shaw, now what is a third string O-line, and an OC that works agianst him and the team rather than for them.

I think at least we should be happpy that this is as bad as it get for this team.

Yea he has had as many INT's as TD's and yes he has been sacked 46 times.

I am willing to have the surroundings fixed and see what happens, because I know if he had the surroundings he had last year when he threw for almost 4400 yards and 26 TD's (24 thorwing, 2 running) completing 61.5% of his passes and making the PRO BOWL all while being sacked 54 TIMES! That we would not be in the shape we are this year. Not with our D.

So I vote to get it fixed and see what he can do next year. Other than Manning, or Buldger there is not much out there in the way of FA.

nice post zone, good call

[Disgustipatex]

Haha, a good father? His kids look like Gollum from the Lord of the Rings!

Fairway and Justa........you guys sure do have boners for getting rid of Drew. You guys are obsessed with it. Go play with your boners together and leave us Bills FANS alone.

The reason why we are critical about Drew is because we care about this team and want to win a superbowl. Just because we criticize him , doesn't mean you are a better bills fan than we are. Get a grip. If you can't take criticisms from other fans who do not see the same thing you do, you really shouldn't be on a MB.

We are no different from those who said the same things about Rob Johnson. I wasn't wrong about him then and I said I would love to eat crow if I am wrong about Drew.

In the mean time, quit living with Drew's achievements when he was a Patriot. He is a bill now and you can't even come up with anything to show that he is worth the 6 million we've paid him.

You have a boner for a qb who has been less than average. It's okay to be a Drew fan SAVIORbledsoe but don't go blasting us when he plays like Rob Johnson.We are not blind.

BTW do you still want Greg Williams or Gilbride here? It's a simple question.

Savior, I'm still waiting for your reply.

I also take it you want to keep every player on this team as well?

Poor guy - you sound like us from 1997-2001

Yep. We should've read the fine print. Still, there has to be some way to salvage this situation with Drew.

Why do you have such a "boner" for wanting to keep an inept QB.



BTW.......................are you cabable of having a discussion without resorting to talking about boners and homosexuality. It sure does'nt seem like it. I think you need to speak with the zone shrink, BF1.
