SoggyHog Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 I would love to have Leinart! Not that he's going to be the next Tom Brady, but he would bring a much needed "attitude" to an already woe-full QB squad. His winning attitude reminds me of a young Jim Kelly that refused to play for a loosing organization that had no promise of moving forward at the time. We all know he has the skills to be an NFL QB, but if he get the opportunity to compete fairly, he probably will be very good. I mean, c'mon, he was second string to a future HOF in AZ, and has certainly outplayed Anderson this preseason. He is getting the shaft in AZ and, clearly, is better than any out our current QB's.

SDS, when are we getting the voting thing going?
silvermike Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Maybe the Bills can trade for Leinart, and use him and Brohm in a scared straight program for future rookies. Or they could go on tour convincing juniors to come out early and not go back for a senior year in which their stock will only decline.
dgrid Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 here's a trade- Fitz for Fitz Fitzpatrick for Fitzgerald. heh wishful thinking

He is by definition woe-ful, two woe-fuls does not add up to wonder-ful. Maybe dumb-ful on a good day Edited September 1, 2010 by Frit0 Bandit0
SoggyHog Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 He is by definition woe-ful, two woe-fuls does not add up to wonder-ful. Maybe dumb-ful on a good day Perhaps you're right, but I respectfully disagree. I think the kid brings a "moxie" to a position that clearly lacks a moxie on our team. I like a leader who is pi$$ed about not being awarded a starting job when he clearly has earned it.
apuszczalowski Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Exactly. Plus he stinks. Now, if the Cards let him go, which they are likely to because of his contract, they will need a veteran back-up. If Brohm looks good on Thursday, maybe the Bills can pull the trigger on a Fitz trade and get a decent back-up OL, LB or TE in return. Not that the Cards have a lot of options for us. But maybe a draft pick that can be used in another trade for solid depth. Maybe they can trade us for that turnstile LT of theirs named Gandy?
The Dean Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Perhaps you're right, but I respectfully disagree. I think the kid brings a "moxie" to a position that clearly lacks a moxie on our team. I like a leader who is pi$$ed about not being awarded a starting job when he clearly has earned it. Me too. But how does this relate in any way to Leinart?
Marv Levy Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Just erect the Statue of Liberty outside the Ralph that says: "Give us your poor, your tired, your sucky mistake draft picks longing to be free...
RJ (not THAT RJ) Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 If Leinart can't look good with the WRs in Arizona, WTF is he going to do for the Bills? Not to mention the perfect weather conditions, etc. Matt Leinart is incapable of playing in the weather in the NE. He makes Trent Edwards look like Sergeant Preston of the Yukon.
Geno Smith's Arm Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Lionheart (haha) would splinter like a frozen flower petal in Buffalo. I have never been one to buy into the old "California Quarterback" myth, but if it were true, he would be the posterboy. He would run home to mommy the first time a Buffalo drunk called him a puzzy on Chippewa St. @ midnight.
purple haze Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 He would be an upgrade over Fitz. I wouldn't mind him on the Bills at all. You aren't serious. How would he be an upgrade? He hasn't won any games has he? Fitz has at least done that.
Kevin Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 You know so far in the preseason leinert has completed 82% of his passes and has a rating of 110. Just food for thought.
Nanker Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Quick! Trade our #2! Our #1! Our #2 and #1!! PTR Come to your senses man! It would take two #1s to get Leinart here. Buddy should do it, but only if we could sign him "on the cheap".
BUFFALOTONE Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 i hope not... http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/08/31/cardinals-have-started-shopping-matt-leinart/ How do you get Leinart to the Bills??? from that article? Some people should not be allowed to start threads.
Mr. WEO Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 You're kidding, right? Derek Anderson has taken the #1 spot and he's better than Fitz by a good bit. That's unlikely, to be kind.
papazoid Posted September 1, 2010 Author Posted September 1, 2010 How do you get Leinart to the Bills??? from that article? Some people should not be allowed to start threads. #1- the Bills have one of the WORST starting QB's in the NFL in Trent Edwards. #2- i assume the braintrust at OBD also knows this and will be looking at all possibilities to upgrade the position. #3- Matt Leinart has a contract that FORCES arizona to dump him. #4- by most accounts he has played well enough to get the starting job. #5- ARZ is actively shopping him, but no one will want him at his current contract. #6- he will probably be cut by saturday, when teams go down to 53. #7- he is still young and has UPSIDE. #8- i happen to think he is BETTER than Trent Edwards, but not by much. #9- he is probably an upgrade over Brohm. #10- he might view buffalo as a legitimate place to play and eventually start. #11- i did phrase my post in the form of a ?? question. #12- it certainly is a possibility.
C-zone Umpa Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Why? He does not have a high motor? WHY? cause he sucks!!!!!!!! Hes always sucked in the NFL. He has a crappy attitude, no work ethic and his raw talent stayed in NCAA. He sat there pouting on draft day because he was the last qb in the green room. I just do not like him, never have. His comments the other day prove hes an idiot. but just opinion, some make like him just be weary of wanting a name. We tend to do that in Buffalo.
ILoveBFLO Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 Didn't see it mentioned, but Schefter is reporting that the Bills are one of 3 teams interested in trading for Leinart Don't shoot the messenger!
