BuffaloBaumer Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 I think they are really wanting to see what Brohm can do - when that happens, who knows.....
Albany,n.y. Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Sure looks like he won't be the unknown factor for much longer. Sink or swim time within a few weeks-my guess-the week after the bye if we don't beat Jacksonville.

Sink or swim time within a few weeks-my guess-the week after the bye if we don't beat Jacksonville. With that Mellon Fitz has, he sure will be a big target for the Jets D. I wonder how Fitz and our oline are going to survive this one... Edited September 27, 2010 by BuffaloBaumer

Chandler#81 Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 I think it's an absolute must this season. Fitz may not be on the team next year either. We have to see what we have in Brohm and that will take at least a season. Otherwise it's a crapshoot, high draft pick -that will also take years to figure out...
DrDawkinstein Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 I've been saying since week 1 that we'd see all 3 QBs start this year. It's an evaluation year, Brohm will be starting by the end of the year. Then, once the season is up, the FO and Coaches can confidently say "We need a QB, BAD!" and draft Mallet (or whoever) #1
12Kachy Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Maybe the Bills should run the WildCat every play. Who needs a QB anyway. Jackson had a touchdown throw last year. Switch between the three RBs and Parrish and we should have a fun year.
PromoTheRobot Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Let's wait and see how Fitz does this week before we bench him. PTR
Geno Smith's Arm Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 (edited) Gee, I was thinking that the only reason they didn't cut him is that he already knows the playbook, and Levi Brown wasn't as good. I think if they thought he was starter material (or at least better than Fitz) they would have made him the number 2 from the start. I think they see what they have in Brohm everyday, and know he is nothing special. I think he probably isn't that great, but will get a chance to play because the Bills don't have ANY good quarterbacks on the roster. But maybe he is Tom Brady or Kurt Warner, just waiting to take this franchise to unknown heights, and we will drown in euphoria chanting his name loudly and proudly "Brohm BRohm BROHM! It could happen just like that you know. Prove me wrong! Edited September 27, 2010 by Matthews' Bag
Phil Hansen Forever Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Give Brohm a chance, he deserves a shot. If he sucks, Fitz can step in. He was never given an equal shot during the preason, even though Chan said everyone did. He never played with the first string, so lets just see what he has to bring to the table. I thought he was able to move the move ball during the few quarters he played. What have we got to lose?
boyst Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 This board amazes me. We sign Fitz from another teams practice squad and he's suddenly an amzing QB who should start. We let of of Bell, who by the hype, will be a league MVP soon. Yet, we have a guy who has performed well for us the last few years and suddenly he's just a backup calibre QB? How is that everyone can determine Fitz is just a backup while Brohm is the next savior? Brohm has a long way to go before he can start. Why do we think we're better at evaluating talent from the sidelines/tv than the coaches who are on the sidelines every practice? None of us get paid by an NFL team to evaluate talent for a reason. We are great fans - FANS.
Geno Smith's Arm Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Let's bring in TimCouch! What have we got to lose?
boyst Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Let's bring in TimCouch! What have we got to lose? I'll see your Tim Couch and raise you Ryan Leaf! He was going to be better than Peyton, remember?
Spiderweb Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 Let's wait and see how Fitz does this week before we bench him. PTR Sounds like sound advice...
GaryPinC Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 I think they are really wanting to see what Brohm can do - when that happens, who knows..... The willingness to release TE at minimum means they're comfortable with Brohm as a backup. Keep Fitz in there until at least mid season and let the offense continue to come together than get Brohm in there.
CardinalScotts Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 I think they are really wanting to see what Brohm can do - when that happens, who knows..... Who is really wanting .....or is it you are really wanting nothing from one bills drive points the Brohm
Geno Smith's Arm Posted September 27, 2010 Posted September 27, 2010 I'll see your Tim Couch and raise you Ryan Leaf! He was going to be better than Peyton, remember? Akili Smith has fully healed! never got a chance. I still like my "American Idol" style QB search. Just invite any former 1st round QB's to play a single game each, and have the season ticket holders vote at the end of the season! It would make the Bills relevant again to television, and way more interesting to the rest of the NFL fans.
