Faulk said Fairchild did a great job with Trent Edwards, said we need an upgrade at center and left tackle (ha!)

 

Said he expects us to be within a game (win or lose) of 7-9 next season.

 

As far as the draft they said we'll pick Devin Thomas of Michigan State as he is the only receiver coming out of a cold weather team.

Left Tackle....yep...get rid of the all-pro bum we have....Last year Faulk predicted three wins--maybe we will be plus 4 on this years prediction too and make the playoffs...

Then Charles Davis says WR or CB at #11...He predicts the Bills to surprise and Draft WR Devin Thomas...Faulk says he LOVES Thomas, who is the flavor of the day at the NFL Network...Davis was giving Thomas praise on the "Path To The Draft" right before Total Access...

 

Faulk is a bit clueless when it comes to the Bills...You could tell he really did not do his homework...Then again, he was MUCH kinder to The Bills than he was last Year...And he does like TE...As far as the Fairchild comment goes, Faulk played for Fairchild at St Louis and has always heaped praise on him every chance he gets... :thumbsup:

The fact that he said we need to upgrade at LT automatically discredits anything he says. We made 7-9 last year with a bunch of backup no names and a harder schedule than we have this year. Marshall Faulk probably read the sheet he was given by the network five minutes before the show started.

I am done ranting

Marshall Faulk completely embarrassed himself, again. Said we have a poor o-line that needs upgrading, specifically at Center and Left Tackle. Yeah, sure sucks having a pro-bowl LT.

 

He re-iterated that with the injuries, we should have only won 3 games last season. Also said Fairchild did an excellent job (:angry:), and the offense might be in trouble, because Turk Schernereck is bring in a new offense. :thumbsup:

I think maybe he got mixed up and said the wrong position...Who knows, maybe he's just clueless? Funny though he didn't say we needed to improve the D-line but the O-line, and the secondary.

 

 

Eisen asked Faulk, "Who should start at quarterback?" Faulk replies "definitely Trent Edwards, I said Buffalo might not win a game with Losman as their quarterback, maybe one"

 

haha, not too fond of JP.

After watching this show live and hearing Faulk say one of our biggest needs is a better left tackle, I realized the guy does absolutely no research. Our LT is young and just made the pro bowl, did he watch one Bills game this year. Makes you wonder how much research Marshall does leading into his commentary.

Heres a quick rundown.

 

We were lucky JP got hurt, as Marchall thought JP could win a mx of 1 game the whole season.

Need to get strong on 1 side of the ball (Offense) build around Edwards, Evans, and Lynch via Building ourO-line, new center, and better Left Tackle (Guys out to lunch?!?!)

Our secondary is garbage, need some corners

Jauron with 17 players injured got 7-9 where St. Louis had same situation with only 3 wins.

Rich Eisen reminded marshall of his whiff last year predicting 1-3 wins, this yr Faulk predicts 6-8 wins.

Changing O COordinators was bad idea, as "Fairchild was great with Trent Edwards"

Schonert installing a new system will be bad for Edwards (2 systems in 2 years, reminds him of Alex Smith.

Need a Tight end

Devin Thomas surprise pick @#11 Marshall loves this guy, only 1st Rd WR talent coming out of cold weather stadium

Just showed a clip from Cinci game on the bench Lynch saying Whosyourmama..........CHAMPIONSHIP.........FUNNY AS HELL. This was a take on an old commercial ....some guys drafting a fantasy league a geek selects TJ Housmanzada of Cinci & calls him Whosyourmama then in a high pitched voice says CHAMPIONSHIP. This was on just before commercial break. CRAP .......back from commercial & Marshall Faulk is assesing the Bills. Last year he said the Bills would be lucky to win 1 game.......he also said Miami would make the PLAYOFFS :thumbsup: He now says he said that because JP was the QB. IDIOT FAULK:" LUCKILY Losman got hurt." Faulk said Trent & Jauron did great last year. NEEDS of Bills - Faulk: The Bills need to strengthen the O-line (they do) need a better center (they do) need a better LEFT TACKLE.....(WHAT THE FUG) Tight end...a crutch for Edwards (they do) corners that can compete (they do) & safetys (maybe need 1) .........NO MENTION THEY NEED ANOTHER RECEIVER. Expectations for 08 Faulk: 1 game better or 1 game worse than last year. You don't want to go into the season with a different offensive coordinator..............Steve Fairchild did GREAT JOB with Trent Edwards last year. New offensive coordinator Turk Shurinurite (how he pronounced his name) has to run the same offense as last year.....didn't work in SF last year or a new offense with a YOUNG QB on 2nd system in 2 years a problem in SF with Alex Smith.( This is what I & others have said regarding JP having new offensive system year after year) ( Mentioned SF both as retaining old offense & putting in new offense) Draft with Charles Davis:Needs CB, defensive side of football, WIDE RECEIVER. Debate comes down to CB or wide receiver. The Bills select @ #11 Devin Thomas (Michigan State) Davis:The surprise of the draft, the only wide receiver with first round talent, used to playing in cold weather. Faulk: I LOVE Thomas.

We need a LT and we are gonna draft Devin Thomas-beecause he plays for a cold weather team? UM, OK, thanks for paying attention and giving accurate info Marshall :thumbsup:
