In the game appearances I've seen of him this year he looks absolutely lost. No chance he can lead that team to a win in Buffalo this Sunday. Can't believe this kid actually mocked the Giants for taking Jones over him but then again so did a lot of Giants fans. D.Jones may or may not be the answer but he's well ahead of Haskins who has proven he's more athlete than cerebral QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any points scored more than that will need to be scored by the defense. I hope I'm wrong. There was a reason they didn't add anyone to the offense at the trade deadline. McDermott believes the offense has room to grow. The starting offense is still developing.. They haven't played together for two complete months. The season is a marathon not a sprint.

CincyBillsFan Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I think there's two competing issues here: 1) How will Haskin's do against the Bills? He's been horrible so far in limited action: Haskins stats so far this year: 12/22; 54% completion; for 140 yards; 0 TD's & 4 INT's; QB rating of 34.5. But he obviously will benefit from a long week of working with the 1st team and being part of the game plan. But even with that said if our defense is even half as good as we think it is Haskins should struggle in Buffalo on Sunday. 2) How will Haskin's do as an NFL QB? This is a different answer and having watched all his games at the Ohio State University I think the odds are that he will be a solid NFL QB. He has some deficiencies, such as mobility. But he also throws a beautiful ball and can make all the throws. If the Bill's allow him to get comfortable in the pocket he might very well hit a couple of deep shots against us. As for those saying they would have preferred Case Keenum? I'm not sure of the logic here as his stats aren't bad: Keenum's stats so far this year: 126/188; 67% completion; for 1343 yards; 9 TD's & 4 INT's; QB rating of 94.8 Yea, we have a lot more film on him but he strikes me a a guy that can get hot hit the short passes and have long, time consuming drives. Kind of like he was doing at Minn before the concussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like I am. EDIT: 2nd Jets game last year. I thought Darnold missed both games but he only missed the first one. So he is 0-1 vs rookie QBs.

Doc Brown Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 2 hours ago, Kirby Jackson said: I know that I’m in the minority and an admitted OSU homer but I’d prefer Keenum. I preferred Eli to Daniel Jones for the same reason. Give me the less talented guy with a resume of mediocrity (or in Eli’s case washed up). I don’t think it will matter this week but I’m positive Keenum wouldn’t beat us. Keenum has a 94.8 QB rating this year albeit purely a game manager. He makes few mistakes and when the running game is going they can compete. Daniel Jones seems farther along than Haskins who was a one year starter at Ohio State who was considered more of a project. I'll take the rookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They really do need to show who’s boss in this game. I would like to see three TD passes and more from the Bills, but mostly I just want a win. Go Bills!!! My feelings exactly. I'm not that concerned about the defense and feel they will bounce back and be strong again.

The 15th overall pick in this year’s draft, Haskins has played parts of two games and has not looked good. There has been talk that he’s struggling to learn the playbook. To me, if you're a player in the highest level of organized football ( the NFL) you ARE an athlete. I'm sorry but if your struggling to learn the playbook after an entire off and on season of full participation that indicates to me you're lacking in memory retention IMO, though to my own admission I'm not a brain specialist. But who knows? Maybe he's proficient in reciting the alphabet backwards. Edited November 1, 2019 by billsbackto81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's just get to 6-2. Haskins is at this point not one of the top 60 Qbs in the NFL. And he is coming to Buffalo on a windy day in the cold against one of the best pass defenses in the NFL. Not going to go well for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted November 1, 2019 Author Share Posted November 1, 2019 Not that we should expect more from this organization, but I think this was a dumb move by the redskins. I understand he needs reps, I understand he was a first round pick. But they chose new era field, one of the loudest stadiums, and against one of the best pass Ds in the league for his first start? I can’t think of a worse idea. Miami chose otherwise with starting Fitz instead of Rosen there and that made sense. Haskins has already been through the ringer with the fired coach, coach didn’t want him, etc. They have a vet in colt mccoy and should have started him this week. 4 minutes ago, Flip Johnson said: Haskins is at this point not one of the top 60 Qbs in the NFL.
