Lehner's history. He just doesn't know it yet.
Every coach ever loses games, guy. Besides, to think that this team has nothing to be excited about is complete ignorance. Being excited for the season also doesn't mean that you automatically think they are Superbowl contenders, there is a middle ground.
Nice burn on my name, though. I'll see if maybe I can get a mod to edit my username because of how clever that was. One question though, did you spell Joe wrong on purpose or was that just something so clever that I missed something? If it was another burn, I'm sure it was a good one and I owe you some kudos.
Yeah 6th rounders never amount to anything - Oh...wait Tom Brady was taken in the 6th round, Romo was a FA, as was Warner. He had better than 6th rd talent, but, (a) his agent screwed up his pre-draft workout and (b) teams were a bit torn on whether or not to make him a WR (like Ronald Curry).
Yep that was me. Just pointing out if you feel that way there's no need for you to log on or watch the games, why put yourself through it? It will be a struggle of course but we'll try to carry on without you. I've heard the Jags are loaded, solved their QB issue and they have the best OL coach in the league. AND the Jungle is looking for new members. Best of luck!

The Bills will go 16 - 0. TT is the new Russell Wilson. Bills win the Superbowl. Tom Brady retires. Bills dominate for next 4 years, Win 5 SBs in a row.
That's my prediction.
Anyone that expects the Bills to lose a game isn't a real Bills fan.

Well...living in Buffalo, that's not a very tough prediction to make.
That must be sad for you.
Not me. I still expect my Bills to win every game. Just because I'm a realist does not mean my excitement is dulled. Certainly not as much as putting a nail in my testicle. BTW...how do you know how that feels??
The title of this thread, which you created, disputes this statement that you just made. You're literally telling people to dull their excitement because, as a self proclaimed realist, you know that our QB situation is worse than most people are making it out to be.
Ridiculous.
Just because I regularly beat your asses into the ground on the Politics section of this site does not give you license to go whining like little babies all aver the place.
What happens on Politics section, stays on Politics section.
In any event, egging someone on to commit suicide is pretty perverse and revolting, huh? All because you don't have the intelligence to keep up with me when it comes to politics.
How sad for you.
I'm plenty "excited"....just not going to get too far onto the "QB Bandwagon" that infects Bills fan all too much.
Whether our "defense should continue to be stellar, we have tons of play makers on offense, our OL is massively improved and so on" remains to be seen, although it's certainly a better bet to be excited about all of that rather than our QB's.
You really think that my little tiny shot of realism is "the most depressing ****"?!?!? Really??? 15 years out of the playoffs is not "the most depressing ****"???
Not having a viable QB in 20 years is not "the most depressing ****"??? Having a long list of horrible head coaches is not "the most depressing ****"???
I think your values are more than a little twisted.
Oh....keep the Politics section in the politics section. Whining about me kicking your ass there is of no interest here.
Oh please. This whole board is simply an "infusion of your (and my) opinion". This is my opinion. Dispute it if you want.
If anyone has been paying attention these last 15 years, my opinion is pretty grounded in realism. I'd rather be pleasantly surprised than deeply disappointed. It's called "keeping your emotions in check".
Jesus. This is no "trick". That's why it's called "reality check".
Of course it's an opinion. You are staying an opinion. We are ALL stating opinions. Why can't people just accept that it's my opinion and you state yours.
My opinion is that a sixth round pick who has hardly played a down in the regular season and has a style of play that is very, very difficult to succeed int he NFL today. Too much speed on the defense. Smart defensive coaches on the other side.
My opinion is slo that I support Rex's decision especially considering the alternative of Cassel. EJ is not in the equation right now, but I think even he would be better than Cassel.
I do not do this for the "I told you so" moment. Maybe you do....I don't know. Why can't we just enjoy the give and take and the opinion making that makes the weeks before the season so magical.
Are you seriously using this as a metric to judge success??? That's he's never been waived???
I never said that there are NO examples of low round draft picks or non-drafted QB's succeeding in the NFL. But, run the numbers and check the facts.
Brady and Bulger were drafted in 2000....FIFTEEN YEARS AGO. Hasselbeck was drafted in 1998....EIGHTEEN YEARS AGO!!!
Three QB's in 18 YEARS. TWO HUNDRED and TWENTY TWO QB's have been drafted in that time. You site THREE. One is great, and two (in your own words) "didn't have bad careers".
You are making my argument for me.
