  1. He also said this:

    "They have the weapons. I don't think they have the ability. I'm not going to knock what they're trying to do ... I guess I am."

     

    Not sure what that means?

    The biggest draw back to the no huddle would be a quick 3 and out repeatedly. The Bills have offensive skill players in ample supply. If Trent can find his nads and push the ball downfield a bit, this could be pretty exciting.

     

    When you have talent but not ability that's usually a condemnation of coaching IMO. I think Jaws is trying to say that the pieces are there, but the puzzle-doer (Jauron) is essentially 3 doing a puzzle for 5 and up....

  2. I think Jaws is the best color man in the league...my opinion though..

     

    And about Hines Ward....what a complete receiver. Great hands, great attitude and holy spit what a blocker! Did you see him just STICK the safety coming in on that one play at the line of scrimmage....? Wow...just wow.

  3. Makes perfect sense.

     

    1. Losman decides he hates the game and never wants to play it again.

     

    2. Someone calls and offers him far less money to play football in a backwater league, but a chance to get on the field and show his ability.

     

    3. He jumps at the chance, quickly signing up with the new league as his ticket to show NFL scouts what he can really do.

     

     

    Not to mention, not one CFL team placed Losman on their negotiation list (thereby giving them the right to speak with and potentially sign JP). In essence, that means the CFL also felt JP Losman was not a suitable QB in their pass-happy league.

  4. It is not just the players,one of the first things Harbough did as head coach was to hire the best offensive coordinator he could find. Cam Cameron was the OC for that 14-2 Charger team with Schottenheimer as HC, now he built a great power running game in Baltimore that really helped their rookie QB do well.

     

    The Ravens could very well win the super bowl this year, then I suppose everyone will wake up and notice what a great team and coaches they have.

     

     

    And the funny thing is when some of us suggested the Bills look at Cameron after he was ceremoniously turfed from Miami, we were laughed off the board....

     

    People forget that great OCs don't always make great HCs. I believed then and still believe Cameron to fit that scenario. Instead, we "promote from within" and that leaves us with unproven coordinators like Schonert and now Van Pelt.

  5. The first thing Marv did was revamp the entire Offensive line. He went out and got the big name (Dockery) and a bunch of other veterans to try to shore up the line. He concentrated a lot of energy and money into rebuilding a piss poor line.

     

    It's not directly his fault that the players underperformed or have been cut for better, younger, cheaper talent. But frankly, THAT WAS THE PLAN THE ENTIRE TIME. Bring in guys better than what you have now, and replace them with better, cheaper guys through the draft a few years later.

     

    What part of that plan didnt happen?

     

    That whole "winning" thing us fans like to see...

  6. As a coach under contract who was fired, Schonert receives full payment of his salary, regardless of whether he works or not, so Ralph saves absolutely ZERO dollars by this decision.

     

    As was said, Ralph's mistake in deferring to Jauron and not firing Schonert at the end of last season like he wanted to do. At least now Jauron knows RW is pissed, and that he's next on Ralph's hit list.

     

     

    Please let him be next on the list....if a loss to the Lions in pre-season was enough to tip Ralph over the edge, one can only wonder what a lop-sided loss to a division rival might cause him to do?

  7. I think that a Yale man such as Jauron might actually mean something we don't understand. The problem is that he loses football games in bunches, and probably would with a team full of superstars.

     

    His "play not to lose" philosophy is as odd as it gets. He is at times successful against weak teams, but this coaching mentality (which I cannot really remember from any other NFL coach) is doomed to failure.

     

    Can you, or anybody tell me why, when we are facing a 3/4 and there are 7 or 8 guys in coverage, we cannot run the football successfully? Or, could you let me know why cover-2 corners are giving receivers a mile of room and the safeties are 30 yards from scrimage?

    Reality tells me that we may never know if guys like Whitner and McKelvin are any good until they leave town, and leave town is what history tells us they will most certainly do. He uses primo picks on these kids and puts them in a position to NOT make plays.

     

    Jauron is one frustrating m.f.

     

    Welcome back Bill....it's been a long offseason (which looks to be followed by a even longer season....sigh...)

     

    I wonder if there is ANYONE left on this board that thinks Limp Dick is a suitable head coach. I wouldn't let him coach my son's Pee Wee team. Why? Because he'd make them feel okay to be LOSERS...which is what this bunch of ninnies in uniforms we got a team are.

     

    He's instilled his "winning is hard" mentality on this team and it shows. Even when they win, it's boring as he!! to watch. I'm sick of it. He's taken the team I love and made them hard to watch. I am actually dreading the NE opener because we're going to be on the national stage and it's going to be an epic embarrassment.

     

    Then we'll have to listen to his "They're a real good team..." and "It worked Friday in practice" BS we hear from him every week.

  8. Hard to be the comeback player of the year when your career never really got going...Ever since TJ played at ASU I could never understand this infatuation with him. He's not that fast, doesn't have a super strong arm, and has never been a dominate QB. He couldn't even beat Matt Jones out for PT while at Arkansas. He completed 54.5% of his college passing attempts and most schools who recruited him wanted him to play DB. He's a project QB just like JP and probably will never develop unless in the right system. What has the coaching staff in Buffalo shown that could help Jackson become a star, but not Edwards or Fitzpatrick?

     

    And that my friend...NAILS IT. You put a QB like Edwards or JP under a qualified system like Fisher's or Dungy's and voila, a suitable starting QB.

     

    Under Fairchild/Schonert/Jauron, young, aspiring QBs are DOOMED. DOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED!!

  9. :censored:<_<:wallbash: The guy threw for FOUR TOUCHDOWNS in that game and your trying to attribute that to his runningback recording his 9th 100 yard game that day and a punt return? Wow. Oh and his defense was creating turnovers because it's their job. Just like it's his job to capitalize on them. Which is precisely what he did. I'm not even a big fan of Jackson's but the arguments you're trying to make against him are laughable.

     

     

    I'd be ECSTATIC if Edwards threw 4 TDs in one game this year!

  10. Hate to break it to you, but right now and comparing Tavaris' last 4 games and pre-season versus Trent Edward's last 4 games and pre-season, it's fairly obvious that TJ is the better QB.

     

    Trent looks like he's lost all confidence in his decision-making ability. The Trent Edwards who used to make quick decisions, get the ball downfield, and move the chains has been replaced by Trentative Checkwards, who scans the field once and looks for the 2 yard safety valve. I put it on this disaster of a coaching staff we have. They couldn't nurture a young QB if their life depended on it. All Trent needs to do is hop in place and pat the ball and we'd have JP minus the arm.

     

    Coincidence that both these guys struggled in Buffalo and looked lost reading defenses and getting rid of the ball? Not when the common denominator is Limp Dick Jauron.

  11. You want to run our starting QB into the ground then go for it buddy.

     

    I don't need to...with our flimsy O-line in combination with Trent's need to hold onto the ball until the exact moment a receiver is wide open, I'm sure he'll be run into the ground plenty enough by the defensive ends of every team the Bills face this year.

     

    Some of us aren't "running Trent into the ground" but unobjectively trying to point out areas of his game that he needs serious improvement in. You're such an unabashed homer, you've already finished his bust for Canton.

     

    I believe Trent's got a lot to work on his game. He hasn't shown any improvements from the problems he had last season so far in the preseason and that's why I, and many others, are concerned about his game.
