QB Bills

What a stupid B word. About Michael Irvin she says "ooh, give me some of what you're taking". It's called cocaine, you dipshit.

Levitre, of course.

Whoa. That is good news, I think. If this doesn't light a fire under Edwards, nothing will, I'm afraid.

He tries, but he really is just woefully undersized. I don't know if they lied on his bio or what, but he is built like a kicker. He should not be playing LB in the CFL, let alone the NFL. Maybe he can play QB???

Just need one strand of your forearm hair to add to my concoction and He-Man will rue the day he ever met me!

hahaha...nicely done get nic harris out there!!

I agree. It wouldn't do much for the future of the team, but he is way better than the 3 guys the Bills have right now. And he has a really hot wife.

What kind of stupid argument is "what did that get us"? The Bills suck because of the offense and the defense. The special teams have did more than their part the last few years. Just because the sum of the parts stinks, doesn't mean every single part does also. As for productive wide receivers, I think we have more than most teams. The issue is QB play and play-calling.

Living in the past? 10 years ago? Guy, are you for real? His ranks the last three years in punt return averages: 1st, 1st, 3rd. If you don't think he's a good receiver and that he's overpaid, that can be argued. But you can't say he's not good at returning punts. This year he is 21st after the 5 games he's played. Horrible, isn't it? The special teams that takes penalties on every other play is kind of horrible too though.

Ya, it probably is. Amazing how Roscoe is now a bum after one bad game. You people do realize that he has a much longer history of being a good punt returner than he does of having games like the one against Cleveland. He had the highest return average in history, for God's sake. No, he's not the sharpest knife the drawer, but the only problem with that is, the coaching staff is just as dull. He's right for being upset with the buffoons that run the offense. Have him run a fly pattern. Give him a couple of end around plays (yes, I know he got stuffed on his last one). This coaching staff has no ability to work to the strengths of the players they have. They are too narrow-minded and keep trying to fit square pegs in round holes (that sounds crass, I know). He has shown the ability to make something happen if he's thrown the ball (nice TD catch in the sunday night blowout against the pats, deep pass in detroit, catch and run against the jets in his rookie year). The problem is that they are too few and far between. And no, that is not Roscoe's fault for "not being open", which is the common refrain among Evans' critics also. You put this receiver corps with a QB with balls and some creative playcalling, you could have a really good offense. One that could make up for the shortcomings of the offensive line.

Um, not really. That was a great adjustment by Evans. Not a perfectly thrown ball by any means. Even the slant TD to Evans was a little behind him. And don't forget that horrible throw to Nelson, where he made a great play reaching around the defender. Fitzpatrick is a pretty bad QB. The Bills have some great receiving weapons. Would love to see how they would do with a guy like Brees, Manning, Warner, etc...

It's hard to say how good Harris really is based on preseason, but I don't understand not giving the guy a shot when the linebackers have been totally brutal so far. Ashlee Palmer whiffed on one of the long runs and took out another would-be tackler while doing so. The coaching staff is a complete joke. Even the casual fan was able to see that Fred Jackson was better than Anthony Thomas, and Jabari Greer was better than whoever was starting ahead of him (IMHO he was the best corner the Bills had, but that's a whole other discussion).

Do you like apples? Well, he's gonna be here for another 2 years. How do you like them apples?

Learn how and when to use the space bar before you start calling people out. I'm sure you didn't have any experience making license plates before you started and look how well you've done.

And the guy says, "I understand why you ask that, and they're a good football team, but I can't answer that, and I never will. Interesting day, weather-wise, isn't it?"

I'm sure this idea has been bandied about here, especially after his comments last week, but I didn't see anything. It is probably too simplistic to draw parallels between the kind of player Singletary was and the job he's done in San Fran and say that Talley could do the same here, but after listening to some comments by Thurman Thomas, it sounds like he might be the type of guy the Bills need. TT was saying that Talley was the guy who'd motivate the players when they needed it, and that he was incredibly knowledgeable about the game, and as such, would make a good head coach. I think we all know that Ralph isn't going to pay through the nose for a new coach, and I think Talley could come cheap. Plus, he still has a connection to the team and community. This is just more thinking aloud than anything, as I don't even know if Talley would be interested in coaching in any capacity. But realistically speaking (ie, money), this is a good option in my opinion. Now as for the offense... Frank Reich anyone???

Perfectly said. If nothing else, mouth breathers like senator really make the rest of us feel like rhodes scholars in comparison. I'm actually surprised this clown even knows how to use a computer.

ya, on second thought, you're probably right...can't really argue with that logic

I agree. The guy's over the hill. Just like Pat Williams was when we showed him the door. Wonder what he's up to these days.

The two most common critcisms are: 1. Evans can't get open 2. Evans can't run routes For both, I can safely say, none of you know what the hell you are talking about, but are just looking for a reason to blame him for a drop in production. You don't know what route he's supposed to run unless you know the plays beforehand, so cut the crap. And unless you are at the game, you don't know if he's open or not as cameras don't usually focus on receivers once the snap is made. The few games I have been to, even when he's double/triple-teamed, he is open, but doesn't get thrown to. This media-generated flavour of the year receiver nonsense has really gotten out of hand. This year Fitzgerald is the best, the year before Moss reclaimed the crown, a few years ago Steve Smith was the greatest. Funny how nobody talks about him much anymore. Did he all of a sudden become crap? No. He's still good but his QB is playing like crap right now. Other than Andre Johnson, I can't think of another star receiver who's been dealt with such a $hitty hand for so many years in regards to the offense around him. That's not an excuse for Lee, it's the truth. If I didn't love the Bills so much, I would love it if he got traded and got to play in a halfway competent offense with a decent QB. If he was one of those diva receivers who demanded the ball, then maybe we wouldn't hear things like "he's invisible" or "he's overpaid". You would think with the huge drop in Owens' production from last year, people would finally see that it's not Evans, it's the QB/scheme. Guess not though.

He can only catch what's thrown to him (and for the most part, he usually does). The guy is an awesome player. Not his fault that the QB has no balls.

Me too. I agree on both points also. He's a guy I really wish falls flat on his fat face (afternoon tongue twister), but I really wish he was coaching the Bills.

I totally understand what you mean, and have thought this also. We can't really know for sure either way. But, it comes down to this: Has the following conversation taken place? Dickie J: Trent, if you don't throw the ball deep on this play and just check down again, I'm benching you, and making you attend bingo night with Ralph this week. Obviously that is in jest, but you get the drift. He hasn't forced Edwards to take chances. We know this as fact because Edwards hasn't taken chances. That is bad coaching in my books. Bad QB'ing also, but bad coaching nonetheless.

Totally agree with you. I hated seeing that and it really was the icing on the $hitcake the Bills just served today. It's not right that fans are pissed after a game and the players aren't. Do you recall Peyton Manning laughing after a loss? I know people say these things don't matter, that we should just judge what the players do during the game, but I think this is part and parcel of what's wrong. He just doesn't seem like he hates losing enough.
