Except for his first game back against the Chargers where he absolutely torched them with fearless and devastating down field throws. It is beyond absurd to me that after Trent has continually proved time and again that he has all the physical and mental tools to be a great and effective QB that can lead a team to victories that people still want to call for his head after one bad performance.
Look the first two games of the season our O line played unbelievably well and Trent looked like the TRUTH. Then all of a sudden a team manages to exploit us there (where we already knew was our biggest weakness heading into the season) and all of you homers want to blame Trent?? Makes no sense whatsoever.
Trent is a good QB. Don't expect him to be benched, or replaced via trade, free agency or the draft. It IS NOT going to happen. They are going to let this entire team continue developing because there is a lot of potential here and Trent is an integral part of it.
No QB in the history of football has great games every week, and when under the kind of pressure that Trent faced this past week, even the greatest QBs of all time look timid and pedestrian. So why don't you stop with all these brainless and inane arguments.
I am thoroughly convinced that the number 1 problem with the Bills organization is its unbelievably ignorant fan base.
Get your arrogant facts straight.
Quite a few of us "ignorant" fans noticed the lack of down field throws last year, early this year and again after week 3.
Most of your posts are directed at other fans and you just happen talk some football along the way.
You keep blaming the fans, I'll focus on the piece of **** product on the field week after week.

I'd take Vick in a heartbeat.
For punt returns and kickoffs...me too.
QB, never!

Of all the reasons not to like Jauron, analyzing press conferences and quotes is the dumbest.
Wrong!
How many more times can he say "the defensive scheme was very good, it took Lee and Terrell out of play". What? You're admitting to the world you're being out-coached weekly???? Scheme better, please!
His press conferences are all wrong....no fire, no passion, no swagger. Just a confused, book smart, old, white Ivy league guy who deep down is more conservative than Rush Limbaugh.
Defending anything Dickie J does should be considered a felony at this point.
Give me Mike Tomlin, Rex Ryan or Samurai Mike all day, every day.
-
Yeah, OK.
I want to replace a guy who throws to RB's and tight ends all day with a guy who is faster, has a stronger arm, but throws to RB's and tight ends all day.

If you're penciling in Miami as a win twice, as well as Carolina and Houston, you're beyond optimistic.
The Bills offense is awful, plain & simple. If those teams score 20 points, the Bills lose 3 out of 4.

Many are trying to make something of TO's emotionless face and how curt he was in a post game interview regarding the Saints' game. The real story is the post game commentary of Lee Evans below. I don't think it takes too much to interpret his comments as being directed at Captain Checkdown while doing it in a mature tactful way.
From CBS sports
"It's frustrating, very frustrating," said Evans. "We just didn't take chances when he had to or needed to or could have. That's the most frustrating part. We had opportunities and we didn't take them. Our defense played great and offensively we had no support for them."
I want T.O and Lee to come out and blast the living hell outta this conservative approach offensive garbage.
2 very good NFL WR's....use them! I'm tired of watching slow, bumbling Tight End's run 5 yard outs.
81 & 83 have 13 combined receptions in 3 games....EMBARASSING!

I know it is just a number and there are many here who have more interest in winning then enjoyable football, but it is a telling stat for a team that has a losing record.
Sure the Giants didn't need to throw for 300 yesterday to beat TB, and some games we really did not big offensive #'s, but wouldn't it be nice to watch a fun exciting offensive team. How much fun would it be to score 34 points a game on offense on a regular basis?
I watch football to be entertained and we have not seen many games we truly would call entertaining in a while.
Is that a valid stat? 39 games?
SICKENING!
If so, that is awful for an NFL offense. You would think at least once or twice a year somebody would have to throw 40 times a game and pass for 300 by default...

This will be Henne's first start and I'm pretty sure he'll be under fire all day long. We haven't beaten an AFC East team in almost 2 years, but I say we get it done this week and drop the Phins to 0-4. Wouldn't that make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside?
This may backfire....Pennington is a rag armed professor at QB. Henne can chuck the rock and has the speed WR's to hurt the Bills depleted secondary.
...and the Bills offense will be lucky to score 10 points. I'll be optimistic...
Bills 9
Phins 7
in a stinker of an NFL game.

I thought that Evans strength was his ability to blow past guys and catch long fly balls. And i thought T.Os strength was to catch a ball about 10-15 yds down field and make people miss/break tackles. It seems so far this season the Bills have reversed that a lot of time. I don't remember Evans getting a long fly thrown to him yet. But i remember T.O on more then one occasion running that route. Maybe it is just me. Am i way off base here?
No, I agree.
Several things I don't see that bother me from the offensive formations:
1. T.O & Lee should be moved all over the field. In the slot, alternate sides & even starting in the backfield on occasion.
2. You know the Bills will be blitzed to death by every D.C. in the league until Trent shows he can beat it consistently. Why are T.O and Lee not the designated "hot route" more often?
3. Very limited use of motion. Both guys should be used in motion more often. It reveals man coverage easy, screws up defensive assignments and sometimes reveals where the blitz is coming from.
The Bills offense is beyond Pop Warner, popgun or any other freaking pop term out there. It's ultra conservative by design and it's sickening to watch.
-
Well its the 4th game of the year, and it already feels like a must win situation. The Fins will start Chad Henne and I am sure they will be ready to "try" and run the wildcat on us.
Honestly, I am a little newvous about the game. After being gashed by Pierre Thomas (who?) for over 100 yards in the 2nd half alone. I think the Fish will stay with the game plan they use. You know, the one that some how lost to INDY, despite out possessing them 45 min to 15 min.
So with that said:
Will the Bills beat the Fins on Sunday? Good lord I hope so
I hope so too. It's a moot point though
7-9 is inevitable!

2-23
I want every thread on this forum to have 2-23 posted until skeletor is gone. Which will eventually be 2-24, 2-25, 2-26, etc...
Beerball, continue the good fight!

At least we're not worse than the Lions!
Give it time....in 2011 or 2012 we will be.

Being a displaced Bills fan, I get a lot of flak from the Skins' & Steelers fans down here. I took a quick glance at some of the newspaper headlines today: "Skins fall to lowly Lions" and "Fail to the Redskins." Can you imagine, losing to a team that has lost 18 games in a row and has not won since 2007? Talk about crushing defeats. And how about the Cleveland game, getting destroyed by the Browns (excuse me) Ravens. The Browns suck big time this year.
Bottom line, our offense sucked in one game so far. The season is not over yet, we have time to bounce back. I'd rather be rooting for the Bills than the Redskins & Browns.
The 'skins and Bills have the same problem....
coaches who are in over their head and young, inconsistent QB's.
At this point, I would gladly trade Trent Edwards, 2 future 1st rounders, my 401k retirement, my car, and the deed to my house for Matt Ryan or Aaron Rodgers.
-
I watched the Jets game and Sanchez looked bewildered in the second half once the Titans pinned their ears back and started bringing it on every down.
With that being said, Sanchez does look like he's going to be a great QB in this league for many years to come.
Sanchez, with all of 3 games played in the NFL has more pocket presence, awareness and moxie than Edwards & Losman combined.
He has "IT"....and "it" can't be learned, can't be taught.
-
I've never played football but I have to ask:
Isn't it much easier to see a wide open WR from the stands than it is to see them from behind the line of scrimmage?
Sure is...
The problem is Trent is 6'4" and should have no problem at all seeing downfield.
Drew Brees is 5'11 3/4" tall and throws downfield as well as any QB in football today.
Trent's problem is he's smart and conservative...great for the Republican National Convention, not so good for an NFL QB.
-
I'm done with Edwards and Jauron. Sure, you can say if TO or whoever catches this or that pass Edwards would have had a good game. But you can't depend on one play to make or break a good game for a QB. He simply dosen't have any down the field vision whatsoever. What is even more frustrating is that not a single QB that is gonna be available from the draft looks like they will be a good to great pro IMO. Go for OT, DT and LB in the draft and pray we find a QB in free agency, which isn't very likely either!!!
My issue with Trentative Checkwards is he has no marbles....
I want a gun slinger, not a game manager.
I want a guy who will snatch victory from defeat, not conservatively pray for a win with 200 yards passing to TE's and RB's
I want a "swingin dick" kinda guy with a some swagger who wants the ball in crunch time and wants to shove it down the defenses throat.
Until that kind of guy shows up in WNY to play QB, we'll be 7-9 again, again & again.......
-
our guys get hurt way way way too much.
That happens when your on the field all freaking game!
This defense would be top 10 with any type of NFL offense as a counterpart.
If I was a marginal pass catching tight end capable of running 5 yard outs, I would beg my agent for a trade to Buffalo or anywhere else Trent Edwards plays.
-
Low scoring game
17-10 Dolphins win their first game
That's just my early prediction
I'm usually a glass half full kind of guy, but both of these offenses suck!
I have no faith in the Bills O and the Miami O may have Henne chucking the rock. They may also run that circus clown wildcat 20 times Sunday.
Bills win on accident 9-7.
-
Brees will not get rattled and force turnovers. Brees is a damn good QB. You blitz him and he finds the hot route or not blitz him and he picks you apart like a surgeon. Pick your poison he is that good! Bills get housed in this one!
Great analysis....
Did you realize there are three phases to football?
Drew Brees is awesome...top 3 QB in the game today. Does he play defense? Does he return kicks?
N'orlins might put 35 on the board, but the Bills offense, special teams and defense might put a combined 38 up......
-
Yea and Evans was the PRIMARY target and Beebe was the #3 guy on the chart....your argument is completely self defeating.
And what exactly does Lee Evans do other than run a fly? Exactly. And Beebe was still better at that even.
Haha....this is some funny sheeet!
Did you marry Beebe's sister or something? Is he your boss?
I suppose you want Reich over Edwards and Mark Pike over Kawika Mitchell.
-
I thought Edwards played well, but except for the pass that Owens dropped, it looked like all of this deep passes were underthrown.
Are we talking inches, feet, meters?
They were all completions minus the T.O. drop. I'm not an Edwards apologist by any stretch, but they're all beautiful when they're caught by the same color jersey...
-
I don't know how Brees plays in inclement weather but I do know that the Saints were 2-6 on the road last year.
Good point!
Joe "NFL" fan tends to forget there are 3 phases to a professional football game. Bills are better in 2 of 3.
When Brees starts recording sacks and running back kicks for TD's I'll change my theory.
-
Umm gotta go with no.
Darth....
you've had the Bills losing every game so far. What's your prediction 1-15?
-
looking at the first two games...
in new england fred jackson is avg 16 yds a catch but only saw 5 catchs
he doesnt run enough screens or play action passes
one of the few times the bills ran pa them had evans and owens open down the field and he ran 1 screen yesterday after alot of success running screens in new england
the offense has put up 17 in ne and 26
fails to give jackson enough breaks and fear of using omon imo
What?
I'm not impressed with your post.
The gameplan changes from week to week....you wanted the same blueprint for New England and Tampa?

10/4 - Dolphins - toss up. Bad, young offenses slug it out...
10/11 -Trent will look like the light went on against the Browns....it didn't. Bills win by default.
10/18 -Jets smack the Bills back back to reality and win by double digits.
10/25 -Bills lose on the road in Carolina. Smith goes for 150+. Peppers has 2.5 sacks minimum.
11/1 - Another toss up...Houston is young & very inconsistent just like the Bills.
11/15 -@ Tennessee. No matter what spin you put on it, this is a loss.
Maybe 3-3 through the next 6?
Right on track for that magical 7-9 finish..
