Scraps

There were people here criticizing every one of those moves during the off season. They were ridiculed for not waiting until training camp. People were criticizing during training camp and were ridiculed for not waiting until a regular season gamehad been played. Here we are, about half way through the season, and you are ridiculing people for not having said something sooner?

Don't forget the coaching staff.

Washington has you beat, 21 coaches, though I am surprised how close the Fins are to Danny Snyder's bloat.

When did Mularkey go to Washington?

Sayid, Jin and Sun don't know that Michael was given the boat.

Given fewer chances than a QB with good protection, don't you expect QBs with bad protection to play worse overall? Good players and good coaching perhaps?

Getting the consistency you seek will come when the Bills get good line play. Your focusing on a symptom, not the disease.

I think your starting to see the light. Never mind.

Would it have helped if they had put a decent offensive line in front of him? Or is it always the QBs fault?

I think they looked over his entire career and determined that he had not lost anything, therefore he was worth trading for.

You make it sound like QBs play in a vaccum. Their statistics are theirs alone and aren't affected by anything going on around them. You seem to be looking for a saviour in the form of a great QB. I think the biggest problems the Bills have had for years start at the offensive line. The poor play of the offensive line goes at least to bad personel decisions by the GM and perhaps to bad coaching. It isn't all the fault of the QB.

Why use 2000 as some line of demarcation? Because if you don't your attempt to scapegoat DB falls apart?

Ask yourself what makes a good/great QB. Do you think it might have something to do with coaching? How about the offensive line, running game and receivers? I guess I'm heavily influenced by Joe Gibbs winning 3 SBs with 3 different QBs, none of whom were great. What they did have were great offensive lines and great running games. Your use of statistics is a shallow attempt to shift the scapegoating but amounts to nothing more than scapegoating.

So you're scapegoating the QB instead of the HC. Nice.

I was using Moulds and Adams as examples of Mularkey's poor personel management skills.

He did such a masterful job with Moulds and Adams.

No, Johnson showed his own way to the bench by his failure to stay healthy.

Conversely one could argue that those who are over inflating what Losman did on Sunday, and there is some of that going on in this thread, are doing it so that when he has the bad day you allude to they can say "But he's played so great until this one game".

So where do you think he is in his development? Playing like a rookie? Playing like a sophmore?

Did Anderson impress you as a run blocker? Do you think Houck is better than Mc Nally? Most Bills fans I know of were thrilled when the Dolphins picked up Bennie Anderson. Its a pity that the didn't pick up Mike Williams and Trey Teague as well.

I'd rather think in terms of Favre, Steve Young or John Elway. All were athletic QBs but none of them won big until they learned to rely on their team mates instead of doing everything themselves. I don't think anyone is confusing Losman with Vick.

People considered Bennie Anderson better? Certainly no Bils fans did, well maybe one Bills fan did.

Question is will Bills fans give TD credit for drafting him?

What exactly is wrong with that one?

Actually I said mid-late rounds.
