Rayzer32 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Trent was throwing to his WRs before he got injured today and was 5/5 leading the Bills to a FG. Two completions to Evans and one to TO. No one seems to ever bring this stuff up, always the negative. FWIW there is not an NFL caliber starting QB on this team. Although, Trent is the best of the three. Do I want to see Trent here next year? only if he is backing up a proven veteran QB or filling in until a new rookie QB is ready to play. Trent was playing well before his injury, that's all I'm saying. Fitz did nothing to make me see any different. I'm not a Trent ballwasher, just a realist and I know Fitz will not lead this team or any other team anywhere in the NFL. Look how he did last year with Chad and TJ as his WRs. He was horrible there too. As for Hamdan, there is a reason he is always on the sidelines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that TE is the best QB we have, but I'm also not so sure Edwards is the long term future for the Buffalo Bills like I used to be and the concussions haven't helped matters..

Did you happen to see the slants and balls over 10 yards thrown today? Fitz isn't a pro-bowler by any means, but the guy aired it out longer than we have seen in a long time. Our wideouts were more involved, we susatined drives, held the ball for 40 minutes, and the Jets felt threatened midrange and deep. He just gives us a better chance to win right now.

Bills Fan888 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Because he's played terrible all season so far. Did you miss the first two games of the season. Trent was great(at least good) until he lost his confidence because our O-line couldn't block New Orleans. Besides that though he has been pretty bad but I think he could be the answer if he regains his confidence and can play through that concussion.

He definitely is not the long term answer, but neither is Fitz or Hamdan. I just don't get all the prasie for Fitzpatrick who was no better than Trent. He was under 50% completions and alot of his passes were not even close to anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evans was the one who got the points. Fitz was more gutsy than Edwards but with 6 picks you still expect to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevestojan Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I'm out of shape, drink way too much beer, and never played organized football and I'm fairly confident I could complete 3/5 passes if I only have to throw the ball 20 feet or so. I should not, in any way imaginable, be able to do something 3/5ths of the time that a pro athlete can. When he completes a pass > 25 yards, I'll stop thinking he's a suckhole. Until then, it sucks that he's hurt, but it doesn't hurt our chances of winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitz is not afraid to pull the trigger, he has a strong arm and he has good wheels, there's allot to like about Fitz's performance, especially in the bad weather conditions.

Brandon Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 To be quite honest, I couldn't care less if he were 5 of 5 or if all of them were to WRs. Its not enough to judge whether Edwards would have played well throughout the game or not. Don't get me wrong, I'm far from being on the Fitzpatrick bandwagon, but as poorly as Edwards and this offense have played this season, I don't see the harm in giving Fitz the next two games before the bye to see what effect a QB change might have. I'm not expecting much, but again, I don't think it can get much worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitz was more gutsy than Edwards but with 6 picks you still expect to win. Evans would not have had the chance to score those points if Trent were the QB. I remember a Game in Buffalo against the Cowboys a couple years ago & the first game this year you would EXPECT the Bills would have won, they didn't & Trent was the QB both games. Coincidence? I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bills Fan888 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 We'll find out next week if Fitz can hold his own in the NFL. I doubt he can since he didn't do well with the Bengals but hopefully he proves me wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
