Regardless, do you think Chan is benching Trent because receivers are blanketed? Think about that, and tell me if a fan in the stands knows more than the head coach. It's his offense, he knows who the ball should go to, when it should be delivered and if the QB did good or bad on any given play. (It's called grading a player) I will take Chan's word for it, thanks.

This is Trent's year, we HAVE to see what he has, with a competent coach. One thing we all should agree on is that Chan can make chicken salad out of chicken BLEEP, when it comes to the QB position. (Jay Fiedler, Kordell Stewart and Tyler Thigpen off the top of my head) Where them 3 differ from Trent, is that they're not made out of china. Worst case scenario for Bills fans, Trent looks solid, but misses 4+ games to injury. At what point do we agree, but more importantly the coaches/front office agree, that this guy can't be a starter because he can't stay healthy? He has been injured almost every season (even in high school) and you can cry all you want about Stanford's O-line, but his backups never had a problem staying healthy while Trent was nursing an injury. In my opinion, the QB to lead us to the playoffs is still in college or on another NFL roster, at the moment. I think Trent is a good backup, but below average starter in this league. He is the best we have by a mile, excluding Levi Brown's potential, because he is an unknown. ( altho history says most 7th rounders won't be elite QB's ) I'm no scout/coach/GM, and there has to be a reason we didn't try and upgrade at QB this season. That tells me that they think Trent can be a solid starter in this league, and they are going to give him every chance. The key to Trent's success is staying healthy, and playing the position at a relatively high level. We've seen him do it, but the key to being a good NFL QB is doing it consistently, and that we haven't seen from him. For now we can blame the dysfunction of the past regime, but Trent really needs to pickup his level of play this season.

Dude, stop. I never want Marv to have his hands on this franchise again, kind of like my feelings about Trent Edwards playing QB for us.

DJ shoulda been fired in December/January. Hopefully it will be our Xmas (or Halloween or Thanksgiving) present this year. But this game wasn't directly his fault, it is a symptom like tgreg says though.

Marv had him rated higher than Willis though...

Poz is very overrated, but the loss hurts because of our depth, or lack of, at MLB.

Same here... I'm no apologist of his, more of a skeptic, but you took the words out of my mouth. He has to do EVERYTHING he can to avoid that sack on the last drive though.

Pats had Saftey(ies) over top most of game. He had a play where Jaws said they were finally one on one, and he didn't take his shot and Jaws called him on it.

He did on that crossing route to TO on third down. (talking about stepping up in pocket) Needs to keep it up...

That last drive sucked, and he would have really raised a lot of eyebrows if he would have brought us back, but he still played a great game regardless. It's a step in the right direction, just need him to stay healthy.

I agree McStupid killed us, but Bell killed multiple drives with penalties and sacks. We might have hung 24+ on them by halftime if Bell didn't keep killing us. Not to mention big third down drops by TO and Evans in the first half. Three positives to take out of this game, although it hurt bad. 1) Fred Jackson is a !@#$ing stud, and could probably start in this league. 2) Trent Edwards looked solid, although them sacks on the last drive hurt bad. 3) AVmfP ... 'nuf said

Fire whoever decided Bell was ready. Not the kids fault, but he is as responsible as McKelvin for this loss.

Hell no, me too!

He is a dumb football player, PERIOD.

I have faith in Trent.
