DAMON HUARD. Here was a guy ran out of Miami on a rail. Look at him now. He may be a pro-bowler at the end of the year. Did he just suddenly wake up one day and decide to be an NFL quarterback? Or is that KC OL the reason why he's been so good?

 

Hrm....

Come on Joe, stop comparing JP to real QB's.

 

I finally got a tape of Sundays game, I didn't use a stop watch, but JP never had more than 4 seconds to throw the ball.

 

If he wasn't in the shotgun, he didn't even get his feet set and he had guys in his face.

That is tough to say since KC lost two starters to retirement. Here is another question? Did the Dallas Cowboys line suddenly get better or does it have something to do with Tony Romo? 93.7 Rating and sacked 6 times in 2 and a half games (Bledsoe 69.2 rating and sacked 16 times in 5 and a half games).

 

The Dallas Offensive line was being blamed for Beldsoe's struggles, but Romo seems to be playing alright behind them.

 

Also, last year, Holcomb was only sacked 17 times on 230 attepmts last year while JP was sacked 26 times on 228 attempts. Was the Bills line playing better for Holcomb than for JP?

Actually KC has a pretty bad Oline. Both tackles basically retired before the start of the year and they are playing two scrubs on the outsides. There line was just descimated. Witness what happened to Green the first game. A smart QB who senses and moves a little can go a long way in making a bad line look good.

OK, well, Miami's OL is BAD and was when he was there as well. How come he didn't make THEM look good as well?

The running threat of Larry Johnson helps...

The same Larry Johnson who had as many yards and just as bad a yards per carry as Willis Mcgahee before last week? The same Larry Johnson who can't catch and is a worse blocker than Travis Henry?

Are you serious? The guy was an abomination in Miami.

So he sucked in his first 6 games that he started in the NFL, but had better stats than JP and was 5-1 in those games. :doh:

 

Do you actually watch football, or do you make this crap up as you go?

Never mind the fact he had Wicky Williams in the backfield.

 

Let's put it this way, Gnome....

 

Bills QBs in reverse order since Kelly's retirement:

 

Losman

Bledsoe

Johnson

Flutie

Van Pelt

Collins

 

Is it just a sad coincidence that all these guys sucked or is it that they've had NOTHING to work with OL- and offensive talent-wise?

So we're saying Green is a bad QB? Or that his O-line did NOT help him look good the past few years? :doh:

You draw your conclusions, I'll draw mine. I am not saying one sucks and the other doesn't. But both Johnson and Flutie did well enough to get us in the playoffs.

 

Collins, where has he ever started again, he is a career backup who started for us. He was Frank Reich.

 

Bledsoe, he did well enough, but he takes the sacks. His biggest issue was coaching and he was mis-used.

 

Van Pelt, nice guy but career backup/3rd stringer.

No Greens a good Qb, but if you watched the first game, he got beat up behind that line. Just look at it, before he got hurt he got hit time and again.
