H2o Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 How did Elway work out? Oh I know you want a guy from say Western PA or so like Jim Drunkenmiller..... I heard Jim's problem was he stayed too drunken off the Miller. Had a rep of being a big drinker at VT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOHNNYFAIRPLAY Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Buddy Nix said that if a player "did it High School, and did it in college he is probably going to do it in the NFL" What player jumps out at you from this statetment? Jimmy Clausen. He was the #1 QB from high school, and started three years at Notre Dame. If Jimy Clausen is within reach of Buffalo , i reall think he will be a Bill! God I hope not...he's not a good quarterback and its not an improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Buddy Nix said that if a player "did it High School, and did it in college he is probably going to do it in the NFL" What player jumps out at you from this statetment? Jimmy Clausen. He was the #1 QB from high school, and started three years at Notre Dame. If Jimy Clausen is within reach of Buffalo , i reall think he will be a Bill! I believe what Nix is referring to is a players abilities. Some people think that such and such a player is too small or won't adjust to the NFL game. I don't believe that is the sole criteria for him, at least I hope not. I'm sure ability to get along with teammates and on field character mean a lot to him. If Nix believes the stories of Clausen being too arrogant for his own good he'll probably pass on him. I think his statement can be applied a lot better to Dan LeFevour.

Cotton Fitzsimmons Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 did what? What Nix is saying is that he made the "sexy time" at the high school level and the college level... ere go, he will more than likely make the "sexy time" at the pro level as well. That's what "did it" means in the afforementioned statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhg Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Second, Losman proved he has the mental acuity to play in 2006. Seriously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turftoe Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Jack Kemp = Born and went to college in California. Kindly stfu Hey Dude, Your point is taken, Kemp was a hell of a QB and was from CA. Do you really need to add the stfu? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kultarr Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Nix clearly meant excelled at winning football games when he said "did it" and not just running out on the football field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yungmack Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Jack Kemp = Born and went to college in California. Kindly stfu And you can add in Darryl LaMonica from California, Joe Ferguson from waaaay down south, leaving only Jim Kelly of the 4 best QBs in Bills history NOT from warm weather. And even Kelly made his rep playing in Miami and Houston before returning "home" to the northeast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsfaninSixburgh Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Jimmy Clausen is a poor man's Jay Culter. A head case with an arm. I'm hoping he's gone before the Bill's pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even Kelly made his rep playing in Miami and Houston before returning "home" to the northeast. Lamonica played in a back-up role for a few years but spent most of his time in Oakland. I never mentioned warm weather or the south. My point was that we are 0 for 3 on our most recent high profile California QBs. If the Bills take Clausen at #9, I sure as heck hope he has what it takes. At least he will have a offensive minded head coach and what I hear is a quality QB coach. Seriously, I'm not sure any QB could have thrived under Dick Jauron and company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
