CSBill Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Being demoted to 3d string for Oakland still isn't enough evidence that this guy isn't an NFL QB? yuuup, nothing more to say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mannc Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I find it amusing that the board seems to favor Pat White, who washed out of the league never having completed a pass, despite being an early round pick, over Flynn who has at least shown flashes of competence & has started games in the NFL. Seems too many Bills fans have champagne taste on a beer budget. Yes, and remember last year when most here had no interest whatsoever in Alex Smith after it was clear that the 49ers were parting ways with him. Many predicted he would be cut by the 49ers and that he would bring nothing in trade, even though he led the league in many passing categories when he was injured.

ALF Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Oakland is paying him $6.5 million to please go away and don't come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pimp 2 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 The Raiders just released Flynn. Any interest? I'd like to see the Bills sign him. Why? What has he done to garner your's or their interest? He's Rob Johnson all over again, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) Being demoted to 3d string for Oakland still isn't enough evidence that this guy isn't an NFL QB? Uncertain. I think Oakland's OL sucks horribly. I have no information on the route-running of the wide receivers or on the play design. I know he got sacked some ungodly number of times. I know Pryor has been surviving by making plays with his feet. I lack interest to watch the all-22 critically and try to figure out how much of that horrid game was Flynn and how much was OL and play design. I would have hated us to trade for him but if we've seen the Oakland film and we want to bring him in for a try, I wouldn't hate that.

Big Gun Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I get it. This is the internet in America where you're allowed to be wholly uninformed on a topic and still voice your opinion. (I'm pretty sure it's encouraged.) BUT HAVE YOU SEEN MATT FLYNN PLAY? Sorry for shouting, but this is ridiculous. I hope no one suggesting Matt Flynn actually watched him play this year. I'm not sure how it's possible, but Jeff Tuel played better against Cleveland. He was awful. Atrocious. If you took how good Peyton Manning has been and asked me to describe the exact opposite, I would say either my 3 year old nephew or Matt Flynn. The guy will get another chance somewhere, but if it's here the FO is truly as incompetent as some of you people think. If I knew how to meme, there'd be a very annoyed Jean Luc Picard embedded in this post. Because that's how I feel. Between this and some of the other QB suggestions, I just can't take it anymore. Bills fans are supposed to be informed, knowledgeable football fans. Please, can we step our game up? +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trader Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I would not sign him just yet but I would bring him in for a look. I might bring Leinart in for another look too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Just released per ESPN.... Flynn needs talent around him to do well, which is why he bombed with the Raiders. He did well in GB and Seattle but Wilson was just better so I think he would be good here since we have a good line and up and coming WRs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prickly Pete Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I think the GB system has made him. He's look terrible every time he has played since then. He was brutal this preseason. If there is a "system" that can make a guy like Matt Flynn look good, I think the Bills should adopt that system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDH Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Just because Flynn failed to secure a starting QB gig doesn't mean any scrub off the street is better. I don't want Flynn as my starter but I'd take him over either of the backup QBs currently on the Bills' roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Can it hurt to bring the guy in? Not like the team doesnt have the money to spend. What a fustercluck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homey D. Clown Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Any chance Trent Edwards is still available?? Maybe a 2nd chance for JP Losman?? How about Leinart? No??? Maybe Chris Sims then... AWWW come on!!!! It's panic time in Bills country... I saw the ball boy throw a really nice spiral thursday night, I'll bet he's better than Tuel.... good grief!

bowery4 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I would be more interested in Seneca Wallace TBH. Wait and let GB get Flynn back and pick him up, now there is a true back up QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T master Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Our options right now should include Flynn... that's just where we are. Well you can bet with this coaching staff & the decisiveness in their decision making they are looking at him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Not thrilled about it, but he's the best available insurance policy it seems. @JoeBuscaglia League source says the #Bills will indeed sign QB Matt Flynn.

KDIGGZ Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 Good, keep the competition going. Don't let anyone get comfortable/complacent. Maybe from this we end up with a good group of QB's that are ready to play so if our QB goes down (like in Cleveland) then we have some who can step in and move the ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
