Ray Posted December 3, 2012 Posted December 3, 2012 But if he was 5-7 like he most likely be if not worse, we'd be running him out of town and hoping to draft a guy. Yep....and that's what he would be with this team. Nice kid, nice story. Let's see where he is at the end of the season and next year. The more he plays the more defenses can gameplan for him. We will get to see him soon in Toronto and we can all see the All Pro QB we should have drafted. If he cannot carve up the Bills secondary he is not very good at all and everyone on his bandwagon can then jump off
San Jose Bills Fan Posted December 4, 2012 Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) I watched a good part of this game, flipped ebtween it and the Lions/Colts game, and the biggest thought I had was that the Bills probably should have dealt Jackson to the Seahawks and kept Lynch. As for Wilson, He has played well this season and has some legs that allow him to keep plays alive. I wouldn't put him in the same category as Luck/RGIII right now, but he isn't a bad QB. As much as you can credit Wilson for the win, you have to also blame the Bears defence for letting them run over him on the game winning drive. Almost that entire drive the announcers kept saying how badly gassed the Bears defence looked out there, they just looked like they had no energy left to stop anyone. To your first paragraph, Freddy didn't hit a pedestrian on Chippewa Street or take $20 bills from people asking for autographs. In other words Lynch was traded because he had to be traded. To your second paragraph I think QBs like Wilson who can keep plays alive as you stated have a tendency to get defenses gassed. Does anyone remember Mark Brunnell's performance in Jim Kelly's final game as a Bill? I wish Russell Wilson was a Bill.... This city would have gone nuts for him. He's an underdog who works hard and snatches victory from the jaws of defeat...sigh.... Actually the Bills had a quarterback very similar to Wilson. The city didn't really embrace him though.

26CornerBlitz Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Russell Wilson will show Buddy up close in Toronto just how good he already is. Watch Beast Mode feast on the Bills too.
TakeYouToTasker Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Russell Wilson will show Buddy up close in Toronto just how good he already is. Watch Beast Mode feast on the Bills too. I'll say it again: Wilson reminds me of a young Tom Brady.
peterpan Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Russell Wilson will show Buddy up close in Toronto just how good he already is. Watch Beast Mode feast on the Bills too. Chris Hairston and Tank Carder are sure to keep him in check
Sisyphean Bills Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Actually the Bills had a quarterback very similar to Wilson. The city didn't really embrace him though. Do you mean Flutie? I don't think the comparison is a good one, nor do I think the city was entirely against Doug Flutie. You can thank Tom Donahoe and Gregg "Suspended Indefinitely" Williams for letting him go. Oh, and the big guy in Detroit...
JPS Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 I sincerely hope Wilson throws for 2 and Lynch runs for 3. That game is going to be a laugher.
djp14150 Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 (edited) Does anyone remember Mark Brunnell's performance in Jim Kelly's final game as a Bill? i was at that game.....mobility in a QB is a good thing. The issue was with his height. A lot of teams thought he had talents---just too much risk for a high 3rd round pick. He would have been picked in the 4th or 5th round by most teams. Also to add...look at the reaction of many on this board when comparing TJ Graham to passing him over based on first year performance. I will be if we drafted him he would be riding the bench and someone will complain why we didnt draft someone else in the third round. Edited December 10, 2012 by djp14150
Alphadawg7 Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Anyone want to reevaluate whether or not they would like Russel Wilson on this team?
Sisyphean Bills Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Wilson is clearly too short to succeed in the NFL. Can't throw or run either.
C.Biscuit97 Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Anyone want to reevaluate whether or not they would like Russel Wilson on this team? Dude was struggling big time through the season and getting by his defense. The Seahawks have done a great job bringing him along and he gets the advantage of playing with the defense that gives up the second fewest points in the NFL. A great defense is a QB's best friend. But the dude is a player no doubt about it.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Wilson is clearly too short to succeed in the NFL.

Uh, yeah he was. http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/gamelog/_/id/14881/russell-wilson He has a great defense that keeps every game close when he struggles. That said, he is really clutch.
ReturnoftheBuffaloBeast23 Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 I bet the OP clearly feels like a D*&^k right now... LOL!!!!! I sincerely hope Wilson throws for 2 and Lynch runs for 3. That game is going to be a laugher. The opposite occurred... *Shrugs*

Bob in STL Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Again, I don't think the team will win with Fitz at QB. I just want to make a point for the people who were insisting that we draft Wilson. Will Wilson be an adequate starting QB? Possibly. It's also possible that he ends up better than Fitz, but I don't see him ever being above-average. I have news for you, Wilson is already is better than Fitz. Today proved that. Need we remind you of Drew Brees? Wilson would have been a better pick than Graham. Look at who we have after Fitz. It is possible Graham would have been there at 4 for us anyway.

Yep, I conceded a few weeks back that Wilson is the real deal. He's legit.

#34fan Posted December 17, 2012 Posted December 17, 2012 Wilson Handed us our a$$es in a bag today. Glad we can put this issue to rest now.
