Another QB Thread...

[Romes]

Sorry for yet another QB thread, but this was on my mind.

Why not give TE the same benifit of the doubt Losman had? Some people seem critical of him in areas they would have given Losman a pass to last year.

And why bash Losman like he is the next coming of Rob Johnson? He tried, he didn't succeed. He has been good to the city, good to the fans. It just didn't work out for him.

Because Losman is only a 4th year rookie. Until he hits the magic 200 game point, he'll still only be a rookie. Didnt you know that?

I really don't think this is about JP anymore, the coaches trust Edwards. They would not have given JP a no huddle offense to run, ever.

I can't help but think this type of post is a slight at Losman or a jab at people that supported him last year. Am I wrong?

They clearly see Edwards fitting into/handling the system better than Losman.

It's so obvious, it's sickening.

not sickening, it just doesn't leave much up for debate.

We'll have plenty of debate until the Bills are above .500.

JP won 2 games last year running a no huddle and 2 minute drill. The only reason why we ran it yesterday is because some other team came up with the idea and Fairchild not having the ability to come up with a great idea by himself , copied that other team.

idiotic statement considering JP won 2 games last year running a no huddle and 2 minute drill. The only reason why we ran it yesterday is because some other team came up with the idea and Fairchild not having the ability to come up with a great idea by himself , copied that other team.

What I meant is this season there is no way JP runs a no huddle, even if he was in there. The coaching staff has little faith in him, henceforth TE starting. I know he ran it last year but in general we sucked last year so no credit given. Us sucking also brought us our new RB and QB so in the long run it's a good thing.

Edwards stellar QB rating has given me hope!

Actually I don't think it's the QB- but the O-Co-ordinator, the play calling, this "system", and neither QB has had a fair shake playing for/in it.

I gave Losman too much of a pass at times, other times after a loss I'd be hypercritical and I don't want to go through the same thing with Edwards. I'm trying to be more objective this time around, it's nothing personal. Trent has looked good for a rookie but if he were a 3rd-4th year veteran like Losman is then I'd be screaming for him to be benched. So to put this in perspective, as a rookie QB Trent Edwards looks fantastic but in comparison to a veteran QB he looks sub average, imo.

TE is in there for different reasons. Not having faith in JP is your opinion. Besides, it's a good thing TE has a good head on his shoulder because he's making Fairchild look better with short passes. Fairchild supposedly knows the deep ball game. He couldn't hold Gilbrides jockstrap.

I agree I don't think its an issue of faith, i think TE just fits their idea of a QB better.

But if they wanted a "dink and dunk" they could have gone with Holcomb instead of Losman last year. don't forget the deep game did have some success that year. I think its more a matter of making quick reads. Losman still tries to make too much out of nothing sometimes.
