BuffaloBillsForever Posted August 27, 2011 Author Posted August 27, 2011 Not a permamenent thing, just to get through the year.
offyourocker Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 Really? Â Â Anything with Luck number 1 to the Bills, I like it
DanInUticaTampa Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 (edited) Brad smith has the weakest arm of the QBs. He is not going to be a starter unless both QBs get injured. Â You can't run the wildcat on every play. that is just silly. Even miami didn't run it every play all season, and they at least had the element of surprise. Â There won't be a QB carousel this season unless there is an injury. The o-line however, that looks like it is going to get jumbled up A LOT. If that unit didn't look so bad, I wouldn't really be fearing the upcoming season that much. Edited August 27, 2011 by DanInUticaTampa
Bills!Win! Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 The only players that Brad Smith could beat out at quarterback are Trent Edwards and JP Losman. As far as I know, they aren't Bills players anymore.
BiggieScooby Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 Smith does get paid more than Fitz. I'm all for seeing what he can do the last 6 weeks if we are out of this thang.

Â Our offensive line is bad this year. Fitz struggling and/or getting injured is not that far fetched. Thigpen struggling to fill in for Fitz is not very far fetched at all. So who's next? While its crazy to think a guy like Brad Smith can start as QB it is not that far fetched when Chain Gailey is the head coach. Brad Smith is right up his alley. Just look at Stewart in Pittsburgh. Though this time it will be only temporary. None of the QB's we have right now are our recent future (2-3 years from now). Edited August 27, 2011 by BuffaloBillsForever
T.O. Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 Are you on crack or how about just saying no to drugs. To say he has a "weak arm" shows you no little about the man or have never seen many of his games at the college level or at training camp. Below is one of many scouting reports which are all basically all about the same in content. He will get a shot to show his skills in Gaily's style of offense. If he doesn't start it won't be because of your notion of having a weak arm. You can take that to the bank. Â Pros: Smith is incredibly versatile. Strong arm. Smith is 6'4", and runs close to a 4.6 second 40 yd dash. Smith is the only QB in NCAA history to pass for 8000 yards and run for 4000. When Smith got outside the pocket and was allowed to rollout he was also a very effective passer. Cons: Smith sometimes does not take enough time to let the play develop before taking off and running (Seems a guy named Vick had the same problem early in his NFL career). Also, Smith has had decision making problems in the past trying to fit passes where he needs to throw them away (I think a guy named P. Manning had this problem big time his rookie year. Overall: Smith should be drafted somewhere in the 2nd or 3rd round. If Smith gets in the right offensive system he could be a solid starting QB in the NFL.

#34fan Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 I think Brad should have a fair shot at being the starter in September. He's that good. I think this will be the year that Fitz gets busted for impersonating a quarterback.

Dirtbag Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 Are you on crack or how about just saying no to drugs. Â of course we're on crack. we're bills fans.

DukeyBomb Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 Well I am not going to sit here and say it's impossible. But I am 99% sure that this will never happen.
NaPolian8693 Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 Pigpen is much more likely to start than Smith should Fitz falter. Tyler is Chan's boy.
