brenty Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 sorry if someone posted this... but losman worked out with redskins... I will laugh if they pick him up. I really feel bad for this guy, strike out after strike out. I kinda have a small small small part of me that would like to see him get picked up, and dumped again. oh well GO BILLS! http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81bcf50b/article/former-raiders-qb-russell-works-out-for-redskins?module=HP_headlines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsConspiracy Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 1st Post!!! Long time reader though. I kinda know what you mean, Losman has seemed destined to fail imo. I really do feel bad for him too, I could see him being an absolute great if he had proper coaching and some protection. But hey no point regretting the past decisions anymore, hope he gets some luck and a few breaks seemed like a pretty good guy so hey best of luck to you J.P!!!!!

joejoebills Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Why would he quit trying? the dude has been playing football his whole life, i doubt he has anything else going for him. Plus will millions in the bank its not like he would want to work a normal job. I personally hope he fails at whatever he does seeing as he as set this franchise back a decade.

He was a model NFL player off the field for us , was always professional , and was a true competitor. I'd love to see him get signed and play well somewhere.

/dev/null Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 I personally hope he fails at whatever he does seeing as he as set this franchise back a decade. Why the hatred? Granted I was rough on JP while he was here, but that is because dude was an awful QB for the Bills and is at best an NFL 3rd stringer. But hoping he fails at whatever he does? Like the MNF crew says, C'mon Man? The NFL thing didn't work out, I just hope he has some other marketable skills than football. Either way I wish JP well in whatever he does.

fairfaxbill Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 I wonder if Shanahan was impressed with Losman's luxuriant beard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ofiba Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 Why would anyone have ill will towards a player who simply didn't perform as well as we hoped he would? The guy really did his best to give back to the community and seemed like a stand up guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nodnarb Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 If they sign him, I'll bet Tom Donahoe will say to himself, "That's a great pickup." Just like he said to ESPN when the Jags signed OT Mike Williams, who went on to do nothing for them as he did nothing for us. Why would anyone have ill will towards a player who simply didn't perform as well as we hoped he would? The guy really did his best to give back to the community and seemed like a stand up guy. Hey, I agree, and nobody SHOULD be making any personal comments about current or former players. But as far as sucking as football players, it's open season and they're all game. BUT, when it comes to a failure of work ethic, then I don't so much mind personal attacks. Because there's no excuse for collecting that kind of money and showing no passion or true intent to do absolutely everything you can to win games. No distractions, football. And many stories had JP being unfocused and cocky - he had no sense for the kind of work it takes to succeed. He thought too highly of himself, and that's often an attribute of the lazy.

Albany,n.y. Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 They also worked out Jamarcus Russell. Both were not invited back to the Raiders. If Shanny keeps working out ex-Raiders, how long before he calls up the Snake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kkspike Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 That's ja awful russel. As for jp I hope he gets another shot, he make more in 8 games then I will in ten years. Who wouldnt love to go to the show one more time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brenty Posted November 3, 2010 Author Share Posted November 3, 2010 Well i personally said i have a small small small hope for him to get signed but get cut. Reason why, I have to say, most cuts buffalo does is actually a smart move... IM NOT SAYING ALL! But when we cut people who did great for us and we all freak out of why we cut him and then they just look awful, its kinda a good feeling, that buffalo saw something that we didnt like. So i have just that feeling that i dont want to see someone who was sooo ****ty on our team, and all of a sudden he is signed and has a chance (which i dont think will ever happen) and be awesome. thats just me.

zow2 Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 I still can't figure out why the 'Skins went to great lengths to sign John Beck as their third QB this summer? For some reason Kyle Shanahan loves him. Beck is quite possibly the worst QB i've ever seen play NFL football. The game he started at Buffalo a few years ago was a one man blooper reel. His other starts were woeful. IMO, JP Losman is a better QB hands down over Beck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orton's Arm Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 I know a guy who spent several years trying to make an NFL team. Ultimately it didn't work out for him. Right now Losman is in the same position that guy had been in a few years ago, with a few exceptions. The first round pedigree means he'll get more chances than he otherwise would have received. It also means that unlike the guy I know, Losman doesn't have to worry about money. And it may mean that for Losman, failure to even make an NFL roster would be harder to take, because there's a difference between falling from grace and being an undrafted college player trying to make the final roster cut.
