Fewell733 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 my answer is the same as the Brady Quinn answer: We already have a better version in Trent Edwards. And I don't mean that as a great thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Cocktosten Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 We could have had him but took Whitner instead. Just throwing the question out there Yes. We should go after Vince Young and Brady Quinn also. Put those 3 guys in a steel cage with Trent and the last man standing gets the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max997 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 We could have had him but took Whitner instead.

BuffaloRebound Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 OK so you are all saying that at this moment Trent is better than Leinart? They are both short-arming pu$$ies, so it doesn't really matter which one is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fewell733 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 OK so you are all saying that at this moment Trent is better than Leinart? I am. Trent has been a starter for 2+ years and has won games. Teams gameplan against him. Leinart has really only done some fill in duty and has only shown to be inaccurate, prone to turnovers, and kind of clueless in the pocket. He's also had a rep for being lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max997 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 OK so you are all saying that at this moment Trent is better than Leinart? how exactly did you come to that conclusion? just because no one would want to trade for him doesnt mean they think he isnt better then Trent, just means he isnt worth trading for...Leinart obviously isnt a top quality QB or he would be starting and since that is the case why on earth would the Bills trade for him?

PromoTheRobot Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 OK so you are all saying that at this moment Trent is better than Leinart? You are making the deadly assumption that someone is good even though you have never seen him play. Maybe he is better than Trent. But right now, what are you basing that assumption on? His college careeer? His pre-draft tongue bath from Mel Kiper? Not his play in the NFL, that's for sure. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fewell733 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Ya but when you say teams gameplan against Trent, thats not meant as a good thing. Its not like when teams play P.Manning fair enough, but Leinart looks bad without teams gameplanning against him. There's only a few guys on P. Manning level. Don't get me wrong, I'm fed up with the way Edwards is playing, I'm just saying that comparing him to Leinart is a low bar to meet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put those 3 guys in a steel cage with Trent and the last man standing gets the job. I definately would have preferred to watching that this past Sunday instead of that "show" the Bills put on! In fact there have been many weeks in the past decade that I would have preferred it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armchair GM Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 fair enough, but Leinart looks bad without teams gameplanning against him. There's only a few guys on P. Manning level. Don't get me wrong, I'm fed up with the way Edwards is playing, I'm just saying that comparing him to Leinart is a low bar to meet. Only way I'd go for it would be a package deal...Leinhart, Boldin & Wells for Edwards, Evans & Lynch...sooooo, I'd say no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armchair GM Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 We could have had him but took Whitner instead. Just throwing the question out there What this fist fill of a-holes really need is a coach who'll get in their faces and call them out for being a bunch of girls...Listen morons, you are all paid very well to PLAY A GAME that you love...so stop worrying about job security and go out there and take some chances...got nothing to lose now since the entire football world has written you off 4 games into a season...jagoffs!!

Mr. T Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I wouldn't trade for Tom Brady with the coaching staff we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookiemonster Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I think at this point, we are probably better just riding the season out with Trent. Put Fitz in if he struggles really bad, draft a sure thing next year, with our eventual record, we should be able to get somebody really good, I like Bradford, but that was before the shoulder injury, if he responds, we target him, Trent/Fitz can B.U.

Alphadawg7 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 We could have had him but took Whitner instead. Just throwing the question out there Nobody knows if Matt is any good, but most importantly he is still the future in AZ with an old Warner there, they are not going to trade him...

Fan in Chicago Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 We could have had him but took Whitner instead. Just throwing the question out there If I have a guarantee that he will have a Favre like career (post-Atlanta) then sure I would trade for him.

H2o Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Personally, just a gut feeling, I think McNabb will be on the block next offseason due to the signing of Vick and the play of Kevin Kolb. If no one is willing to pay the salary and give up the picks, he will be released. I'd go after McNabb if we could get him without breaking the bank and giving up too many picks. He is already used to similar weather and would have his best group of WR's since being in the NFL, even when TO departs in the offseason. The injuries are the only drawback, but he's had years where he's been completely healthy as well. I would applaud the move if we made it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, he'd be what we haven't had the last 5 years, a leader in the huddle. Guys would want to follow him into NFL battle. I hope it happens.

Do you honestly think Leinart would do any better? We've got a perennial 7-9 head coach, an awful defensive coordinator (4th most points allowed) and an offensive coordinator who only has that job because the other one got canned.

phxbacker Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 No way. I'll stop watching at that point. I can't stand him in AZ. He's all over everyones Bank Cards here and he can't even break the lineup. He was the golden boy in AZ until Kurt said No the "F" not it's me ! He doesn't want to play football it shows everytime he gets on the field IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
