Magox Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 All I know is that if we don't draft a QB, that we definitely need to go after one in FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreakPop Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Edwards is the best QB on the roster at the moment if a new coach can coach him up. That said, if he does start, I have $10 that says he doesn't start ALL 16 games. If that's the case why wasn't he playing? Edwards will NOT even be on the Bills next year. Arguing this stupid point that Edwards will be the Bills starter next year is just asinine. If you Edwards supporters can't see or understand why Edwards is not starting/playing at all, then one has to really question your football knowledge.

K-9 Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I agree that TE is still the best on OUR roster but his confidence is shattered and that's been evident since last season. It's possible a different coach could restore that confidence but once restored will it remain intact when things inevitably go south as they do for every QB. I have my doubts. More than any other attribute, confidence is the most important quality a QB needs. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaineMoxie Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 This is all pure speculation. No one knows who's gonna start next year since we don't even have a non-interim head coach yet (and by Monday or Tuesday we probably won't have a head coach, period). If Fewell weren't so freakin' in love with Fitz (and misguidedly thinking an ugly win on Sunday could save his job) we might see some more of Brohm who wasn't great, but wasn't horrible either (honestly, it's hard to judge when the offense is hardly ever on the field).

News flash... there is a new GM and Coach coming in. The fact that Perry Fewell and the current staff moved to Fitz is irrelevant as to whether Edwards will start next year. I believe popular opinion outside of the organization is that his play this year was a product of the trainwreck around him. I think he still has potential but agree that a fresh start might be what this team needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VADC Bills Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I can't imagine Nix having conversations with Thomas and Kelly leaving them feeling set at QB. If he can create a Drew Brees, Phillip Rivers situation here, I would be pleased. We will see a new QB next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 To quote Buddy Nix: "It is hard to throw the ball when you are lying on your back." The number one priority is to put together an NFL quality line that can punish defenses in Buffalo weather. In my opinion, Trent is not starting because Evans and Owens threw him under the bus. In my view, Evans never liked Edwards because of his man love for Losman. Owens did so because that is what TO does. Neither one of them (much like many on this board) were able to see the forest from the trees. In the end, it will not make any difference who we have back there until we upgrade the line. My hope is that we spend our resources (picks and dollars) on upgrading the offensive line and run defense; let TO walk (he does not want to be in Buffalo anyway) and spend that money somewhere else; build a team that is strong at the point of attack and can play in Buffalo weather.

PastaJoe Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 They have to address the OL first. Bringing in a new QB behind the same OL will just be repeating the same mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, I could have written those thoughts myself. Good to see there is another fan seeing what I have seen. Still concerned - however - about those concussions.

FreakPop Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 What happened to Loserman? He signed with the Raiders after the UFL season completed. He's their 3rd stringer I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was his motivation to throw Edwards under the bus? The excuse making for Edwards has surpassed the excuse making for JP Losman. Trent is a back up QB, nothing more.
