The Senator Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 A serious contusion can take months to heal um ya so this isnt something to laugh about guys.....Please be ready for opening day Trent! Yeah, if your name is Rob Johnson. It sucks that this happened now because preseason game 3 is usually where the starting QB gets the most work, then just a token appearance in game 4, but TE will be ready for Seattle. 19 & 0 baby!!!!!

Dan Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 A little food for thought.... If Trent misses this week's preseason game, does he start for the fist half of the 4th game? On one hand, it'd be good for him to have the time with the starting offense. On the other, starters historically play very little of the 4th preseason game.

Hopefully he can go this week, otherwise you would think the coaches would want to give him work in game 4. Based on how the Bills as a team have started each of the past 2 seasons, I would hope the coaches this year would throw the conventional wisdom of little playing time for starters in game 4 out the window. They all need to play to be ready for the opener. A lot of young or newer players on this team. Let 'em play! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary M Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 I was at tonights practice and I was a former big supporter of JP and I say he didn't look nearly as good as TE tonight while he was on the field. "Naturally with Edwards leaving practice early J.P. Losman took all the first team reps with the starters on offense. Losman took a series or two to adjust as the plays Edwards was to run in practice were different from those chosen for Losman. So stepping in for Edwards in the practice setting didn’t quite resemble a game situation." http://www.buffalobills.com/news/news.jsp?news_id=6409 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Relax people. I had a thigh contusion once, and I returned to work the next day. Now, in fairness, I wasn't a professional athlete, I delivered Pizzas......and it wasn't the next day, it was a couple days later, and it wasn't a thigh contusion, it was a stomach virus.....but still......no worries. Chicken Little Chicken Little runand hide the shy is falling. It's a bruise people .... Clark Judge report People here tell me the biggest offseason addition for the Buffalo Bills was defensive tackle Marcus Stroud, but unless we're talking actual size -- and Stroud is 6-feet-6, 310 pounds -- I'm not joining the chorus. Instead, I'll vote for Turk Schonert. He's the team's new offensive coordinator and a reason to believe that maybe, just maybe, Buffalo enters the 21st century on offense. A year ago the Bills ranked 30th and were downright boring when they had the ball. Make that passive, predictable and unproductive. Or P-P-U. Schonert might change all that, and you can only hope if you're a Bills fan or Trent Edwards. Edwards is the team's starting quarterback, and look for him to be given more responsibility under Schonert -- including checking out of plays at the line of scrimmage. In the past, that wasn't possible. If Edwards or J.P. Losman saw something he didn't like, he didn't have the option of calling an audible. He had to run the play, which might explain some bizarre events last season. I remember the Dallas game, when the Bills held a 24-16 lead and had third-and-8 at the Dallas 11 with just over six minutes left. They had a sure field goal if they did nothing, but they threw the ball -- which is OK if you're throwing to the end zone, but this was a pass to the flat. And it was intercepted. Stupid. Two weeks later, they're ahead of Baltimore by 12 points, and the Ravens' offense was stuck in neutral. The game belonged to Buffalo, provided the Bills didn't go dumb on us again -- which, of course, they did, throwing another flat pass on third-and-10 from their 8. It, too, was intercepted, and led to a touchdown that put the Ravens back in a ballgame they deserved to lose. Unbelievable, and don't get me started. THANK GOD Flatline Fairchild is GONE!!!

Chilly Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 "We'll just have to wait and see what tomorrow holds for it so I'll wait until the morning," coach Dick Jauron said. "Sometimes they come back very quickly, and sometimes they don't. Sometimes it turns into a deep bleeding thing and we're hoping it's not that." Lets hope it isn't the latter...

He was one of the two highest rated qb's coming out of high school. I think he said the other was Vince Young. However, during his career at Stanford was marked by continuous injuries. He really liked him otherwise. It would suck if this was his m.o. during his stay here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostsOfTheRockpile Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Paul Hamilton just called into WGR and said Trent just took the field for practice. He isn't fully participating and has a bit of a limp, but Hamilton said it doesn't look serious, probably just a nasty charlie horse. Also said Schouman is out there walking around.

I gutted it out the remainder of the season and was in pain for months after. I played defensive end. If I had it to do over I'd have taken some time to get better. I imagine the Bills have enough sense (and a little time at this point in the preseason) to allow him to heal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To quote AI, "We're talking about practice. I mean listen, we're sitting here talking about practice, not a game, not a game, not a game, but we're talking about practice."

That's what makes him great. If his coaches had told him to just go down when he is hit, like, say, Anthony Thomas or Peerless Price, he probably would have stopped for the girl.
