    Out of film room and on to field

    Losman starts long process of preparation

    J.P. Losman emerged from his darkened film room Friday and finally got to play some real football.

    It felt mighty good.

    "It was exciting," the Buffalo Bills' new starting quarterback said Friday. "I've been telling everyone, "I've got it, I've got it' in the film room. But you never know until you come out here.    ..more

    The best part of the day was you could tell the guys on the team were anxious to see how well I knew the offense - the linemen especially, and I think the offensive coordinator," Losman said, referring to coach Tom Clements. "I've been working predominantly with Sam, so he (Clements) didn't really know himself. I could see he started saying the plays, and then he started saying them faster. He's like, "Dang, the kid got it.' So he started saying them faster. And we just started rolling. It was a good feeling."

    Best part!!!
    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.

      Excellent Read! Thanks Phil!

      As long as the missed throws are more mental than physical I am pleased. No question the guy is on the right track to being a team leader! I love that we finally have an outspoken field general.... we havent had one since Kelly... Guys will follow a guy like him off of a cliff, and that's what you need on the field.

      So far he is saying all of the right things... doing all of the right things.... I just hope it translates come September!

        I think we are headed in the right direction. Maybe one day we will be able to see Losman's name on the "wall", but hopefully the "hall".
