CentralVaBills Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 who might play this week, it would be Roscoe Parrish. He could actually be a difference maker. Yeah, I'm sure the Jets are shaking in their shoes for either Holcomb or Losman. Yeah Right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBuffaloDisease Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 The Jets should be shaking in their boots regardless. Giving them something extra to think about assures a win for the Bills even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navy Chief Navy Pride Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Herm said today that they are prepping for both JP and Holcomb. Herm needs to be prepping on who on his staff he will blame this loss on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin in Va Beach Posted October 12, 2005 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Who gives a fug what he does or say? Mularkey could come out and Riverdance for 5 minutes, turn around and moon the press gallery, and then go tongue kiss Ralph Wilson but as long as we win on Sunday, who cares. The starting QB will be the one I see line up behind center and gnashing my teeth over not being told in advance who it will be is a waste of time.

The starting QB will be the one I see line up behind center and gnashing my teeth over not being told in advance who it will be is a waste of time. 474431[/snapback] Because it's flat out stupid. No sh--, who gives a fug if they say it or not. However, I'm seriously starting to think we have a bunch of idiots all over One Bills Drive. Do they really think they are being smart by hiding who is playing? Another example of mental "trick plays" that are flat out stupid. We can't just line up and play football, but we have to "trick" everyone. Whether it's on the field or now our newest weapon......mind games. We are always relying on cute-sie horseshit. Everyone knows it will be Holcomb at QB. Yet, when there is one guy who could make a difference on the field (Parrish), the cat is out immediately. Seriously, what do the Jets prepare for? Losman, a QB who sucks right now (not saying he always will).......or Holcomb, a pocket guy who has potential to carry a team once every 10 games or so. Neither are scary. Gimmie a good, solid gameplan. Involve Willis, keep Peters at TE, and get Lee Evans off. Maybe debut Roscoe on a key 3rd down slot play. Don't tell me, part of our plan to beat the Jets is hiding which below average QB we are going to start. I don't think our disount version of Michael Vick and Matt Schaub are scaring anyone.

Stussy109 Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 not shaking, but both are COMPLETELY different QB's, it does affect one's game plan heading into the game.

Lori Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 It gets better. I'm looking at this week's press release right now. Specifically, the depth chart on page 13. Even more specifically, the big empty blank space next to the spot marked QB, where the names Losman, Holcomb, and Matthews used to be. We don't even have a McGahee/Henry-style "1a and 1b" here - according to this, we have no quarterbacks on the roster. I'm sure somebody will either write a rant for the News or vent on the local radio station about this, if they haven't already. As for me, I think it's flippin' hysterical. (Just so long as the folks over at One Bills Drive take time out from playing "Top THAT!!!" with the media to craft some semblance of a gameplan.... ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanker Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Is MM that secure that he's inviting open warefare with the WNY media? TD seemed to have a belly full of it a couple of years back. To me this is just another sign of mis-managment. By the way. Nice throwbacks. Too bad we don't have even THAT to look forward to anymore this year.

Nothing like making the opposition a bit more agitated Mike, good going you idiot. Think about how'd you feel if Herm Edwards did the same thing to the Bills by saying that he didn't know if they'd be starting Bollinger or Testaverte. Malarkey's over his head in this job.

Beat all the lousy teams it played, and lose to every team it was supposed to lose to. And ummm, throw in losing to Oakland and Jax as terrible losses. The kind of losses that make teams miss playoffs. Thus, the playoffs and the Bills didn't see eye to eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In theory if you have to game polan for both QB's, you can't dedicate as much time to any one approach. 474571[/snapback] Agreed, but both are completely different who pretty much can't win the game by themselves for you. I mean seriously.....I honestly think the Jets would be THRILLED if JP plays. Thrilled. I also don't think they fear Holcomb very much. So, what's the difference? How much game planning does it take for Holcomb? You can completely rush him. Pin your ears back and go. JP? He's a bad QB right now. Hell, make him throw the ball while knowing that you can't over-rush him upfield. Come on. Football isn't that hard at all. If JP was a better QB, OK. You'd have to seriously worry about him more. Right now, he's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone knows that Holcomb will start this week. If he doesn't, then I will jump on the Mularkey sucks bandwagon. If you listen to his press confernces, Mularkey has gone from being pretty friendly and open with the media, to being guarded and defensive. You can bet, the franchise still sees Losman as the QB of the future, but the future is not now. The mucka-mucks who make up the WNY media have been trying to get him (or "trick" him) into saying something deragatory about Losman, and he is simply tired of it. Going with the refusal to name a starting QB lets him get away with saying "I am not going to comment on the QB situation". Fug the media!
