Van_phelaN1 Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Oh dear god please let this happen. My friend who is a Dolphins fan ragged on me for so long about Trent Edwards and now maybe, just MAYBE, I will get to return the favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsObserver Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Dolphins are foolish if they DON'T sign Captain Checkdown. Will guarantee them Andrew Luck. What's the point of winning (this doesn't always apply, but I do think it applies for this season when a stud like Luck is coming out of college) when the season is all but gone for you. Garrard may win a game or two for you, believe it or not. Trent will undoubtedly give you the best chance to lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Senator Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Unless they truly are trying to 'suck for Luck' (which I doubt - only Polian is that crafty), the smartest moves the Dolphins could make are to 1) Fire Tony Sparano today 2) Grab QB Graham Harrell off the Packers' practice squad, and 3) As the new Dolphins head coach and offensive coordinater, hire... Mike Leach As a Bills fan, however, I'd much prefer they sign Fanning Fan... GO BILLSSS!!!! 18 and 1 baby!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 You must be joking also. Do you not remember the love that fans had here for Trent? How he was going to be an amazing QB because of his Poise? or are you just a revisionist who wants to believe that everyone but the Bills front office knew that Trent would not be a good QB?

Fans were heckling him from the opening of training camp. The new HC had to very publically appeal to them to stop razzing TE. Maybe you redacted that from history?

Mark Vader Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 And a starting job in the hearts of most Bills fans too. its amazing how quickly the fan base turned on him. Actually the fan base turned on him long before that. I was one of the Edwards supporters, but in the end it just didn't work out. What I find to be more disturbing is the continuous ragging on this guy from some of the fans here. He's no longer with the Bills. Move on already.

AxelRipper Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 As a Bills fan, and as much as I'd like to see Miami to have to endure the friendly-fire-esque WRATH of Trentative, I hope they get someone like Gerrard. They need someone who will perform just well enough so that they are taken out of the Luck sweepstakes and will stay wallowing in the shallows for years to come.

And we think Ralph is cheap! They are definetly trying to tank the season for Luck. They have to know that Edwards will get killed in the AFC East, Delhomme is too old, Croyle might work out. Glad to see them imploding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Hammersticks Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I wonder why Garrard hasn't found a home yet? Clearly, he must be a better option than Brodie Croyle or Trent Edwards!

Fezmid Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 From my Buffalo Bills daily calendar today: October 5th: While a sophomore at San Lorenzo valley High School in California in the Early 2000s, Bills guard Andy Levitre's team lost to a Los Gatos high school team quarterbacked by Trent Edwards.

DC Tom Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I think Edwards is still at a point in his career where he can find success with the right team. Unfortunately for him, I think he's at a point in his career where the right team can invariably be described as "One which doesn't need to sign Trent Edwards."

#34fan Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Chad Henne isn't all that bad. I think he'd make a great Bills backup if the need ever arose. If the fins stay the course, I think they'll win more games. If they pick up a BUM like Trent, then they're an absolute LOCK for the Luck-Lotto. That'd be like us switching Fitz for Jamarcus Russell.

Unless, of course, the dolphin's intention is to continue to suck. Hmmmm..... I was listening to Ross Tucker on the NFL channel on satellite radio this morning. I just turned it on in time to hear them talking about this. They said that Garrard declined a try out. They mentioned someone else also declined a tryout, but I don't remember who. They were bashing on Miami for not having a viable backp. I didn't even know that Henne was hurt and didn't hear the extent of his injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miami must be in trouble. I would say we SHOULD pick up two games in the division when we play them. That being said, there are many a slip tween the cup and the lip.
