No truer words were ever written.
Mark, Jay, 89, Jack and a few others including myself had a chance to see Losman play in a closed workout at RWS before he got hurt. This kid was impressive in just that short workout and sure it was just a practice, but somethings just can't be taught. Very good pocket presence and though he took off with the ball a little early on some plays, I think that can be traced back to his days at Tulane were he played behind what was described as the worst offensive line in college ball. That said, this kid can chew gum, run and throw the football...on the money. The thing that fans are going to have to realize is that its going to be an on-going learning experience for Losman and that patience will be needed while the kid learns how to read NFL style defenses and the different looks he never saw before at Tulane. People either don't know or are to young to remember, but Jim Kelly got the stuffing knocked out of him his first two years playing pro ball for the Gamblers. It took Kelly time and the same is going to be true for Losman.
If the Bills, futher into the season get eliminated from any post season play, we will see Losman on the field. One Bills drive wants to see what they have with Losman as much as "us fans" for the most part, want to see this kid play. Weather he can tie in the intangibles, physical skills and Quarterbacking intelligence is anyones guess right now; including the Bills.

Give up Steve, you're only offering an educated opinion. It's only based on your 40 + years of attending football games in person. You don't know anything.
Whatever. No one is declaring Losman the savior. Just that he deserves a shot over a washed up loser who still makes high school mistakes in his 12th year of Pro Football ( Read the safety ? Look at secondary receivers? What's that ? ) Those 3 INT's against Seattle would have killed us most other weeks. That's a normal game for DB.
Some people want Losman to fail for the anti-TD agenda. I could care less about TD. I want to win games and go deep into the playoffs. Bledsoe will NEVER get us there. So lets just B word and Moan instead of giving Losman a shot.
Let's e-mail Sam Wyche and tell him he's wasting his time with Losman.
