LOL!!!
This, and we do already know that Losman is great. He has proven it time and again. His greatness is guaranteed.
I think that if Drew is on the field in a game that the Bills lose, he should be benched under any and all circumstances....even if the defense gives up 40 points, and the special teams give up 21.
If he fails to win the superbowl this season it is time to pull the plug, right?

They interviewed Art Shell. Does that make it OK?

Mannings not starting? Really? That is a crime.
Vick is a terrible QB, BTW. He is a good running back, with a cannon for an arm. He has terrible accuracy and no vision for down the field. He also is a locker room cancer to his WR's and they have let it be known that he doesn't look to them as a first option.
Also, while I blast Travis for fumbling, Vick is a fumbling machine. He has at least 15 this year.
This is not a team player by any stretch of the imagination. IMHO he is another Jeff George type of player.
It is rare when I disagree with you. Perhaps you will be proven right in time about Vick, I dont know.
That said, I am currently captivated by his talent, and I can see him winning a superbowl.

CL, do you want all of us to call them and curse them out?

I guess it would be inconvenient for you to come out here?

Agreed, what a tremendous selection!
The draft interests me more and more these days, and picks like this are the reason why. Mr. Butler impressed me with Cowart, Holecek (round 5) and Covington. All of them would have been great imo if not for the injuries.
Also, what was Ron Edwards, a 7th rounder?
I am still waiting for someone to tell me how Pat Williams was not drafted.

Bill-
Drew's 39447 passing yards to date position him as the 10th most productive paser in the history of the game. The three names immediately in front of him are Unites, Montana, and Fouts. I believe most objective football fans would consider that some rarified air. Here's a link-
My mistake. He is 18th in touchdown passes, and I got confused.

Sorry Mickey. When Wyche made those comments, he was ONLY referring to Drew. Everything that went wrong was his fault alone, and he deserves NO credit for any good play, including the bomb to Evans.
What are you thinking?

Sharp thinking has no place at TSW. The Sacred Cow must never be critisized, not even by a Coach who developed Ken Anderson, Joe Montana, Boomer Esiason and more.
Bledsoe should be the QB at present, while we continue to win. No question. Still, I'm NOT blind to his long list of shortcomings as a QB. He has made some solid throws over the last few weeks, against average to bad teams who were very beatable. He has also dropped his arm down to the point where he is sidearming most balls and making multiple throws behind the receiver. In closer games, against actual quality opponents, that will kill us. Wyche must be beside himself, watching DB's mechanics, which are inconsistent and poor. He has every right to be concerned, since he knows that will eventually come back to beat us.
Winning on the road in the Playoffs,against higher quality opponenets, is a whole different animal. How much longer can the Defense and Special teams make numerous big plays to win us the game ? A good opposing Defense, at home, sticks 8 in the box and stops the running game. So it's up to Bledsoe to get those LB's and Safties off the line of scrimmage by beating them. A bit of mobility comes
into play more than ever. So does making quicker reads, showing some touch on the short passes and locating a secondary receiver. He has yet to show he can beat it in 2 + YEARS !
He wasn't drafted and paid well to ride the bench for 2 + years. Bledsoe will eventually cost us some wins in close games and the change will happen.
I do NOT hate DB but can clearly see his entire game and what he has to offer as a starting QB. Blinders off.
>>>Be it early on or later, I see Losman taking over as our starter in 2005.<<<
I guess this depends a little bit on whether or not JP is capable of being an NFL qb.
Drew is capable. This is why only 17 humans have thrown for more yards in NFL history.

Bill, when you put things this "new" way re: Travis it's much easier to understand your points. As much as I like the guy I really can't disagree with much that you say about him. I did feel (or see) that at times he made devastating blocks against blitzers but it was very much a hit or miss situation. I still think that if there is a chance of him staying in line from a team aspect, that we would benefit from keeping him around as Willis's backup.
Lori is a friend for several years. I met her through tailgating in Lot 1/Pole 5. She told me that at times, I sound quite "brusque" on TBD" There is no reason to doubt someone this intelligent.
I have a feeling that you and I would understand each other better in person. If nothing else, I am down to earth.
Yes, I too have seen some smashing blocks, but he misses more often than not and as I said, Bledsoe too has his limitations. The Bills offense does not lend itself to pass rushers speeding unobstructed toward our QB, who is not mobile.

Is it too late to add Atlanta?

Henry will get the Bills at least a 2nd rounder, possibly even a conditional 1st depending on how he does next year. With the Colts looking to franchise Edge and RW not coming back, the only other top RB is Alexander. There is a big market for good RB's this coming year, and Henry will be in-demand because of his productivity, age, and salary. Anything lower and he's not going anywhere.
I think that next year wont matter in terms of trade value because his contract expires after 05.
If this is true, does it change your mind about his value after this season?

At 24, it is easy to overrate a player, but he has more talent than I have ever seen in football. I know that raw talent alone is not enough to win football games, or RJ would be a hall of fame qb, but this guy is just amazing in terms of what he can do.
I think it is a good deal both ways.
