Albany,n.y.

All those players were, or thought they were, going to Buffalo to play for a Super Bowl contender. The problem is until we show that we have a QB who can at least win a playoff game the high profile FAs will continue to go elsewhere. Once we show some ability to field a winning team, they'll start signing with Buffalo again.

Edwards wouldn't have lost the game-just look at what he did in bad weather against Miami the year they were 1-15. The team the Colts fielded the last 3 quarters was the equivalent of that Miami team. The Bills would have even won the game with Gibran Hamdan. Indy was totally in the tank. Just remember Painter was on the other side of the field. Edwards is either going to be the starter or off the team this year. There's no way he can be the 2nd stringer in his final year, just look at how badly it worked out for JP. If the Bills bring in anyone in the draft or FA, Trent is history, but that's only 50-50. Depth chart is either TBD Fitzpatrick, Brohm; Fitzpatrick, Brohm, TBD; Brohm, Fitzpatrick, TBD; or Edwards, Fitzpatrick, Brohm or TBD. Chances are if we draft a mid-late round project, Brohm & him will be battling it out for 3rd string only, with the loser ending up on the practice squad.

Act like an alien & don't speak any English. Nothing sends the guys at the barns scurrying faster than the INS.

I'm sure there will be a 2011 season. It might not be 16 games, but this is not the NHL, where enough teams were losing money that not playing a season saved them $. By November 2011, at the absolute latest, they'll be back.

QUOTE (SouthGeorgiaBillsFan @ Mar 14 2010, 03:59 PM) Because Trent is the better QB. Anyone who thinks otherwise is just in Bills-suck denial and looking for a scapegoat. Fitzpatrick won a single game for us on a single prayer that he threw down the field. He did not make another outstanding pass, and in fact, pretty much every ball he threw looked like a wounded duck. He was the recipient of a few lucky breaks which had nothing to do with QB play that allowed us to steal games we should not have won. Fitzpatrick is probably the worst professional QB I've ever seen play a down in my life. Does he have heart? It appears so. Does he have even a modicum of NFL caliber talent? No. And even a banged-up, concussed TE still post better per game statistics and a higher passer rating. So I'm really not sure why you even bother to ask such an inane and obvious question. You're both talking nonsense. 1st off, there have been a lot of QBs on the Bills worse than Fitzpatrick, including the whole league is just ridiculous. The 1st guy is either talking smack that he can't back up, or has only seen about 2 football games in his life. Now the 2nd one starts the cold weather nonsense & what does he justify it with-a game in the snow against the Colts bench players. Sorry, but it DOES matter when your QB is playing against scrubs. Even JP looked good when dropped to playing against minor league defenses. You want to know what the real problem with starting either Edwards or Fitzpatrick is? It's that these guys aren't bad enough to not win between 5-7 games and cost us any shot of getting a real QB in the draft to replace these bums. The only hope on this roster is Brian Brohm-but not in the way his supporters believe. I really hope Brohm starts every game next year, because of the 3 QBs on the roster, he's the only one bad enough to get us a top 3 pick in next years draft & finally end this QB futility.

There's no way in the world the Bills are using pick 9 on Tebow. I think years of bad decisions have conditioned you to expect the worst, but Nix knows enough about football that he's not putting the team's future in the hands of a guy who has to change his entire game and there's no live competition to test his new game against. Unless the Bills put 11 on 11 in Tebow's workout & make it a multi-hour thing, he's not getting selected by this team. Now if he's still around in the 3rd round, you might toss the dice on him, but at pick 9, guaranteed not to happen.

I watched an interview with the driver last night. He was asked if he tried to get the car in neutral and he said he didn't, because he wanted to keep both hands on the wheel. Sorry-wrong answer! He was able to call 911, and then use the emergency brake, but couldn't free his hand to put the car in neutral-something's not right here. The 1st thing every 911 operator should say is "put the car in neutral". The 1st thing any driver with a stuck gas pedal should do is put the car in neutral, this should be stated over & over again on any news report of a car with a stuck gas pedal so anyone watching who doesn't already know it, should. This driver never tried to put the car in neutral & admitted it in an interview.

Meanwhile, the Bills starting QB will be a Bills PLAYER, not a Bills fan. Only the idiots who listened & agreed with the morons on WGR could have misinterpreted what Edwards said that day. You appear to be one of them.

Pat White was brought in to be the wildcat QB & nothing more-pretty bad use of a 2nd round pick. Reminds me of a team a few years ago that needed O-line help, among other glaring weaknesses, didn't have a 1st round pick, and drafted a punt returner with its 2nd round pick.

Lindsay Wagner should sue Lindsay Lohan for soiling the name Lindsay in Hollywood.

Parcells had nothing to do with drafting Phil Simms.

Whatever publication or site you stole the unbolded paragraphs from, I hope everyone realizes the article is 2 years old. The regular season games are now into their 3rd season & Ralph is 91 going on 92. Nice copyright infringement. Next time add the link so you're not breaking the rules.

The media is following the lead of the law enforcement people. If he had been arrested & indicted, you'd see a lot more coverage. At least on the media's part, race has nothing to do with it.

If you lost as many $ as Delhomme lost today, you'd be crying too.

Now look at the Baltimore Ravens drafts since 2000 and realize they were drafting behind us most of the time:, some misses, after Oher it was weak this year but some pretty good hits, and a bunch of starters, shown in bold (from depth chart 1/10/10 playoff game). Their last 9 1st picks all started this season. The 10th, 2000 pick Jamal Lewis started for them when they won the Super Bowl & just retired after finishing his career with Cleveland. Also 1996 1st rounder Ray Lewis still starts. 18 of their 24 starters (K & P included) are draft choices. 2009: 1) Michael Oher OT 2) Paul Kruger LB 3) Ladarius Webb DB 5) Jason Phillips LB Davon Drew TE 6) Cedrick Perrman RB 2008: 1) Joe Flacco QB 2) Ray Rice RB 3) Tavares Gooden LB, Tom Zbikowski DB, Oniel Cousins T 4) Marcus Smith WR 5) used for 2007 supplemental pick Jared Gaither T 6) Haruki Nakamura DB 7) Justin Harper WR, Allen Patrick RB 2007: 1) Ben Grubbs G 2)Yamon Figurs WR 3) Marshal Yanda G 4) Antwan Barnes LB, LeRon McClain FB 5) Troy Smith QB 6) Prescott Burgess LB 2006: 1) Haloti Ngata DT 2) Chris Chester OL 3) David Pittman CB 4) Demetrius Williams WR, P.J Daniels RB 5) Dawan Landry S 6) Quinn Sypniewski TE, Sam Koch P , Derrick Martin CB 7) Ryan LaCasse LB 2005: 1) Mark Clayton WR 2) Dan Cody DE, Adam Terry T 4) Jason Brown C (let for big FA$, starts for Stl.) 5 Justin Green FB 6) Derek Anderson QB 7) Mike Smith LB 2004: 2) Dwan Edwards DL 3) Devard Darling WR 5) Roderick Green LB 6) Clarence Moore WR 7) Derek Abney WR , Brian Rimpf T 2003: 1) Terrell Suggs LB, Kyle Boller QB 3) Musa Smith RB 4) Jarret Johnson LB, Ovie Mughelli FB (left for big FA $ to Atl) 5) Aubrayo Franklin DT 6) Gerome Sapp DB 7) Trent Smith TE, Mike Mabry OL, Antwoine Sanders DB 2002 : 1) Ed Reed S 2) Anthony Weaver DT 4) Dave Zastudil P 5 Terry Jones TE 6) Lamont Brightful WR, Chester Taylor RB (just signed big $ FA deal with Bears after leaving as FA to Minnesota) Chad Williams DB 7) Wes Pate QB 2001: 1) Todd Heap TE 2) Gary Baxter DB 3) Casey Rabach C 4) Edgerton Hartwell LB 5) Chris Barnes RB 6) Joe Maese C 7) Dwayne Missouri DE 2000: 1) Jamal Lewis RB, Travis Taylor WR 3) Chris Redman QB 5) Richard Mercier G 6) Adalius ThomasLB (Left for big FA $ to NE 2007) , Cedric Woodard DT

The draft used to start on a weekday in the daytime. I remember I had my 1st VCR in 1987 & I taped the draft while I was working. Unfortunately I messed up, set the tape speed for 2 hours instead of 6 and I think the tape ran out before we drafted Shane Conlan.

8th round pick.

Fitzpatrick, Edwards, Brohm, Hamdan =4 QBs in Bills land or 0 QBs who belong in the NFL.

How do you "coach" a guy who has gotten injured virtually every year since college to stop getting injured. Relying on an injury prone QB is a certain road to disaster. Nothing is gained by having a guy play 3 or 4 good games a year & then going out with an injury.

Edwards just may be the best QB on the roster, which is like saying the plain looking woman is a knockout when the only two other women in the room are Helen Thomas & Janet Reno. I've got 2 major promblems with the OP. 1) Stop the nonsense that every time a Bills QB fails it is the coaches fault. The Bills have had some decent or better QB coaches going back to QB guru Sam Wyche who succeeded with others before getting stuck with JP Losman. 2) The main reason you can't go into a season with Trent Edwards as your QB is that you won't finish the season with Trent Edwards as your QB-he's too injury prone. We've been down this road before with Rob Johnson. In 2001 Rob's last play as a Bill was an injury. If Trent never plays another down in Buffalo, he will leave the same way. If Trent is the 2010 starter, just like Johnson in 2001, he will dissapoint early in the season & then end up injured before the season is over. This season could be very much like 2001 if the group of QBs remains the same. Trent Edwards=Rob Johnson, an injury prone disappointment; Ryan Fitzpatrick= Alex Van Pelt, a so-so backup who ends up the starter because the other QBs are bad; Brian Brohm=Travis Brown, a reject from another NFL team who is overrated due to the desperation & frustration of the fans, who viewing the QB situation, start grasping at straws. The only hope for 2010 is if the starting QB is currently not on the roster.

Upside definition: A player who has proven absolutely nothing, but he hasn't failed as badly as the players who play for those peoples' team. so they hold out hope he can be better than the players who have failed there, has upside. As used in a sentence: Even though he failed in Green Bay, some Bills' fans think Brian Brohm has upside because the Bills have had bums at QB and Brohm inpressed them in college.

I plan on being at the game. So 1st thing I'd do is take in the post game stuff at the stadium. Now I'm not much of a drinker, but I went to the Bills 4 Super Bowls & promised to have a victory drink after the Bills won. I never got my drink, so I'd have to finally get that drink. Then I'd go back to the motel room & watch all the sports stations until about 3 AM.

If the Bills scouts have a franchise label on either Bradford or Clausen & St. Louis didn't take their guy, be bold & trade up & get him. We'll never win without a QB. Get the OTs in free agency or a combo of other rounds & free agency.

This is no better or worse an argument than starting Brian Brohm. At least Hamdan has been MVP of NFLE a league that has produced 2 Super Bowl winning QBs. There is too much of a willingness of Bills fans to pin their hopes on rejects instead of wanting to find the real answer at QB. Same goes for those who want to trade for other teams rejects, like Thigpen, Bulger etc.
