Beerball Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 In the first preseason game the starter typically plays 1-2 series. I don't think the Bills can afford to go into the game with that plan. Here's what I would like to see: Edwards 1-1 1/2 quarters (depending on # of plays & success rate) Brohm 1-1 1/2 quarters Fitz Rest

Having Edwards play a full quarter (depending on the situations) would be out of the ordinary. I can't see them not giving Fitz some time. If that turns out so, I'd say he's a goner. Soon. I would think that they would want to give the rookie Brown some snaps, also.
Glass To The Arson Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Edwards - 1st Fitz - 2nd Brhom - 3rd Brown - 4th
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Edwards - 1st Fitz - 2nd Brhom - 3rd Brown - 4th Aren't only 3 QBs eligible to play? Or does that rule not apply to the preseason?
stuckincincy Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Aren't only 3 QBs eligible to play? Or does that rule not apply to the preseason? Dunno - but it wouldn't make any sense to apply a restriction while clubs are trying to plan their regular season roster,
BarkLessWagMore Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Well, Chan is already on record as saying the starters will play "more." Me, I'd like to see the starters play a half (esp. on offense, and hopefully with some success). Carve up the second half between Brohm and Brown. Give Fitz some snaps in week 2. I pray we don't suffer another preseason like last year when the offense was beyond inept. Give us SOME hope please.

Sorry, poor choice of words...I meant that Fitz gets the rest (remainder) of the game. I really don't care whether Brown gets a snap all preseason. If he plays during the season we're really screwed! We need to see what the top 3 can do.

The Senator Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Edwards - 1 play (on first pass play, smashes hand into own knee on follow thru, goes on IR for the season) Brohm - remainder of 1st quarter, most of 2nd Fitz - finishes the half, all of Q3 Brown - Q4

You have to give the young'uns a taste of live action.
High Mark Posted August 11, 2010 Posted August 11, 2010 Id like to see the Ol and the D front 7 out there for a while too. They need the experience.
