He's gone. Can't undo what is done. Deal with it crybabies. At least when the amigos were calling for Drews head it was actually a legitimate debate because he was still on our team.

So, what about the woefully slow start of JP. Is that a legitimate concern?

To be honest as of right now I am glad it worked out for someone. Just because Drew left Buffalo that doesnt mean we have to stop rooting for him. A lot of people still like him. I agree with you in the sense that he wasnt right for us... is JP? I dont know.
But I do like the fact that Drew is proving a lot of people wrong.
I think you need to deal with the fact that some people still like him.
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.

I saw an interview with him yesterday, that took me back a little. I can't remember the interviewers name, so let's call him Bob. Here's how it went. Don't quote me on it word for word, though.
Bob: So what kinds of sports did you play while growing up?
Drew: Everything, baseball, football, basketball, you name it.
Bob: Why did you decide on football out of all of them?
Drew: I was better at it.
Bob: How old were you?
Drew: I was in seventh grade when my buddy beat me out as QB, but he moved away in 8th grade and gave me his position on the team.
Bob: Aren't you glad he moved away then?
Drew: Yeah, otherwise I'd have to work for a living now.
JP is a bust.
Did I say you need to stop rooting for him? Did I say you should not like him anymore? Did I say you should be sad he is having success? I guess you just read what you wanted so I'll say it again. Saying we should have kept Drew is a waste of time. He is gone and we can't get him back if we wanted to. The fact is we don't know what he would have done if still on our team. Niether the amigos or the DLC do.
Yup, he'll never ever get better, never learn, never grow. Three games = career.

Maybe Drew wasn't the problem?
Maybe it was the play calling, coaching staff and front office?
Well the only people I have seen say that have been trolls for the most part. I think the debate between us zoners...or for me anyway, is between Holcomb and JP. That should be the focus... I agree with you. Hindsight is just dumb.
I don't think any of the great QBs in the game were as cocky as Mini Mouse without first stepping on the field. All that talk you Mini Mouse devotees eat us is just that. Talk.
I happen to agree with you that we should just let it go, but then again I think it's funny that you are right there every single time DB is mentioned, even starting dumb@ss threads like this just to find a way to keep kicking at him.People are entitled to talk about whatever they want on this board. We read you and your fellow genius's incessant whining for 1000000 threads in the last couple of years about DB, yet a couple posts about him now that he's gone he's gone has your panties in a bunch. Why don't you just deal with it?

They can't deal with it because the truth hurts.I happen to agree with you that we should just let it go, but then again I think it's funny that you are right there every single time DB is mentioned, even starting dumb@ss threads like this just to find a way to keep kicking at him.
Quickest path to the ignore list: refer to yourself in the third person.
The answer is both ... Drew needs perfect conditions to succeed, and we didn't provide that. If you're a one-dimensional QB who folds when things go wrong, Buffalo is not the place for you.
No truth in your post:I happen to agree with you that we should just let it go, but then again I think it's funny that you are right there every single time DB is mentioned, even starting dumb@ss threads like this just to find a way to keep kicking at him.
1. "a couple posts"?You guys are catching up fast with our amount of posts. If JP keeps sucking and Drew keeps playing well it will be even in no time.
2. "starting dumb@ss threads like this just to find a way to keep kicking at him" Guess you can't read if you think this thread was a kick at Drew
3. At least you are right about one thing. People have a right to talk about whatever they want. I have a right to say it's stupid
No truth in your post:
1. "a couple posts"?Not even if the entire Cowboys fandom joined Billszone. Shoot you Cynical, Tatonka and the rest of the "amigos" have 40000 "Bledsoe sucks" posts between you.
Maybe not at him directly but calling anyone who posts about him a "crybaby" is a kick at them. Not that I care personally. I say "keep the dumb@ss posts coming".2. "starting dumb@ss threads like this just to find a way to keep kicking at him" Guess you can't read if you think this thread was a kick at Drew
Not as stupid as this thread.3. At least you are right about one thing. People have a right to talk about whatever they want. I have a right to say it's stupid
The difference is this.....
Drew had NINE SEASONS under his belt before the Amigos called for his head.
JP has THREE GAMES under his and the DLC is calling for his head.
This isn't even a debate. It's foolishness at this point.
The hue and cry last year from the amigo's was "we can't be any worse off with Losman than Bledsoe". You yourself must have said it a thousand times. I was skeptical of that not because Losman isn't talented but simply because he's raw but I deferred then as I do now to the wisdom of our GM and coaches. So far at least Losman has shown only that he's not ready for prime time. Is this shocking? Not to me. Are we down on JP? Not really, we just want to win games and not flush another season. And if we lose next week we're in mortal danger of doing just that. And THAT's not foolishness.
They're using it as a crutch to defend their stance. "JP has sucked see we knew it! Drew is great in Dallas!" three games into the season no less... Makes me wonder if some people sleep with their Drew bobbleheads or something.
