After 5 seconds of video from the first mini camp

[Russ 'Em]

It seems to me that Brian Brohm's throwing motion and deep ball are soooo much prettier then T.E. I want someone who is going to throw the ball not push it. This is probably why Trent can't handle throwing a deep pass. But it was only a small clip and he had no pads on so...

[Russ 'Em]

um which part?

[Bob in STL]

um which part?

 

 

I would say both. 5 seconds of video and no pads.

 

I do share you enthusiasm and I hope Brohm and develop. Let wait until we see them scrimmage in pads, then play in preseason before we get too excited.

[lets_go_bills]

Not to mention no pass rush. Lol, five seconds.

[Russ 'Em]

Well the most important part of the observation was the throwing motion. It doesn't matter if your in full pads or throwing from one knee with your shirt off, its obvious that Trent pushes the ball and Brohm throws the ball. that was my point.

The 6" distance between the QBs ears is more important than throwing motion, IMO. I seem to recall quite a few first round busts who could throw beautiful 60-yrds spirals from their knees when wearing shorts...

My sense is that folks make a judgment about the quality of the opinion offered based on the little amount of evidence (5 seconds of tape) and the galactic declaration (Brohm is the obvious choice over Edwards) and that is what evokes laughter.

 

The main point probably made by your argument is that the conclusion you have drawn about Edwards that he is done almost certainly deserves a second look if the conclusion that he "pushes" the ball because that is the quality of player he is if it is based on the same type of limited evidence/galactic conclusion thinking you offer, the conclusion that Edwards is done is probably incorrect.

 

My sense is that one of the reasons folks are enthused about Gailey is that he has a proven track record of getting good productivity out of failed or limited QBs, As enthused as folks are about what Gailey may be able to do for Brohm (or even Fitzy) this same line of thinking could well mean that he is going to also squeeze new productivity out of Edwards.

 

For me its an open 3 way competition this year and I really could not care less which QB wins it as long as one of them shows significantly more production under Gailey than they did under previous Bills regimes.

And edwards has neither the brains nor the throwing motion. The sooner he is off this roster the better

First of all 5 secs was a guess. The video can be found on BB.com. Secondly I was not insinuating that TE was done, unlike a large amount of other posters here. What I was stating, and maybe too simply, was that BB's ball looks so much more effortless to throw. Its the kind of throwing motion that scouts seem to be looking for (opposite of Tim Tebows throwing motion and comparable to mannings) I also agree that the brain of a QB is what will ultimately decide his effectiveness. In so stating however, physical tools are what gets the job done, and from what i saw BB's tools seem to eclipse TEs.

If you're going to start a thread about something you saw you need to link it. Just etiquette dude.

You're welcome.

Is this a picture of what you meant about Brohm?

Even better in that video is how Spiller looks.

just sayin...there were also two picks thrown in that video that seemed to be on Brohm more than on the receivers but it is hard to judge anything in that context

CJ looks like an Olympic Downhill racer.

Troupe has a thick trunk and wide hips.

Carrington looks ripped.

Trent Edwards probably has one of the fastest, if not the fastest delivery in the NFL. His hand speed has been clocked at 83 MPH, TE's read/react time out gunned the fastest known Gunslinger in the World. So folks can say what they want, but the reality of it is our glove wearing Mary probably does some things better then any other QB in the NFL. (besides getting injured)

[bills44]

the reality of it is Trent Edwards does some things better then anyone on the face of the earth.

Brohm had 2 nice passes to mckelvin and 1 to corner, ooops... TE is a fantastic training camp qb. I remember him standing out over jp et al even as a rook in the practice highlights... Too bad it falls off a cliff once hits start coming...

 

No or few passes from bad bad levi brown in the clips.
