I do believe that you are certainly a worthy dispenser as such. I see in your gleeful post that you already have JP in there with Kelly, etc. My questions is why set your sights so low? I think that JP will be better than Montana, Elway and Young, no problem! Unless of course another defensive back brushes up against him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I remember similar posts from the other side when Drew re-worked his contract last year. It doesn't really matter who was right or wrong... Now that it's over, I think it'd be great if all of us just turn the page, re-unite as one Bills Nation, and support our new QB 100%. GO JP!!!

Guffalo Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I think many, not all of us were happy when he caame to Buffalo, and the first 8 weeks we were rewarded with some pretty good football. The following 2 1/2 seasons were less than spectacular. Although I would have loved for him to stay on as a backup, I don't hate the guy for his tenure here, he was all we really had, we now start the JP era, and we will see what we have. Will it be another Todd Collins, or will it be the next coming of Kelly, only time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VABills Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Well if you knew anything about the saying "Eating Crow" then you would understand it would not apply here until JP wins the Super Bowl. Pretty much any thing short of that the JP lovers will be eating crow. While I have some serious doubts about JP, I also am not a Bledsoe fan. IMHO, going into next year he was the better choice to get us more wins especially if the Oline was upgraded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thamus Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I guess it is fitting noticing how Rockpile's history for the Bills was blank for 2-16! The DB release would at least make news and Bills history for that day. What a shame. For a 3-13 team 3 years ago, I guess we expected the Lombardi trophy?

It isn't any of the guys you named. Either way, JP is the man now, and I wish Drew well. He gave nothing less than 110% and is a class act. It just didn't work out here. Go JP!

I also think that Drew lost something while playing behind a pre-McNally offensive line that consisted largely of poorly coached misfits. 108 or thereabout sacks in 2 seasons HAD to take a toll. My point? No, Drew was not a great qb with the Bills, but JP has a ton to prove merely to earn a starting spot, let alone post numbers like Drew. Lets hope that he can for our own sake as Bills fans.

You KNOW what DB was capable of, and it wasn't much. Even though we don't know what to expect from JPL, I believe there's a 50-50 chance he's going to be better than Drew.

Sadly, for some, the only world they can live in is the manufactured world where they believe they're always right and everyone else, by not agreeing with them, is wrong. I fail to see how the release of Bledsoe means the Bledsoe lovers should eat crow. Is it because they all stood around yelling that Bledsoe will not be released this year? And if you had believed that to be the case...and I am one of those people...does that make you a Bledsoe lover or a person trying to predict what the front office will do?

All we know about JP is that he gets hurt in practice. My son is such a Bleedsoe fan, now what do I tell him? I dont think Drew is that great, but he does know the system and the players.
