mitchmurraydowntown Posted August 25, 2013 Author Posted August 25, 2013 Holy Crap. Has it already been that long? Look, for those of you little turdballs that are too young to remember Slim Pickens, just rent/stream/high-colonic (or whatever it is you do these days, you little cretins) two filims. Dr. Strangelove (or How I learned to stop worrying and learned to love the Bomb); and Blazing Saddles I'm the world's single biggest fan of Blazing Saddles, okay? My big movie date with Lisa (no, didn't get lucky, f-ing relax) was simply memorable in 1974 at its screening in Rochester. But nothing - NOTHING - can beat "Dr. Strangelove". Quick trivia question. What were the names of the nukes that were "saddled up"? Don't Google it! The Ballad of Cable Hogue, that's a family western.
Alphadawg7 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 OK - is it my imagination or did that happen impossibly fast?? IE - I am now suspicious they were already looking for Kolb alternatives, and were talking to these guys BEFORE he was injured today. Beck is pretty bad. I wouldn't cry over Leinart as a backup. Dont read too much into this. Teams already have guys targeted of you they want to take a look at if we lose players to injury. They look at who's currently available, who might be coming available, etc all off season, pre season, regular season etc. These guys were already on a list of guys they could look at if they needed another arm. All they did was make the call once they lost a QB for the 2nd time this preseason.
White Linen Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 I don't think this is an act of desperation, it's a matter of having enough QB's to throw balls in practice starting Monday. We can't let Tuel do all the throwing, we still have to evaluate and make cuts, how else would we do that? Rest assured fellow Bills fans we have EJ Manuel. He's the reason to be excited about this team and to not worry. I think we'll see him throwing a bit this week but they aren't going to put him in with pads on, that's what Beck and/or Leinart will do.
NoSaint Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 havent paid attention. What has VY done there this preseason? Taken the #2 job going into the season and is likely the only backup they are going to carry I don't think this is an act of desperation, it's a matter of having enough QB's to throw balls in practice starting Monday.

Yup - a lot of wideouts fighting for jobs that deserve an extra arm out there. If the qb looks reliable, an added perk
Kelly the Dog Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 There obviously aren't any good options. But Leinart is terrible. That cannot be an option, IMO.
The Tomcat Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 This team needs some Chroise right now more then ever!!!
kasper13 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Everybody was dumpster diving.......Corp is still on the Dolphins roster. Leinart has played in 4 games over the last 3 years and didn't even get a camp invite this year. He couldn't stick with the Raiders. Beck is worse than Leinart. Hopefully someone almost halfway decent gets cut this week. It's only for a game and practice but still they need more than one QB. Looks like only Tuel is available Thursday and you need more than one healthy QB for a game, Three would be nice. Yes, only backups will play but we have no backup to the backup.. If Tuel goes down and EJ isn't ready by week one? Yikes. If Tuel (Rookie UDFA) who looked it today has to start week one? Yikes. I knew Kolb was an injury riddled disaster. 3 concussions in 4 years. Puts us in a tough spot. Hopefully EJ's knee is 100% by 9/8.
JimS Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Confirmed by Tim Graham, with a third QB as well: http:://blogs.buffalonews.com/press-coverage/2013/08/three-quarterbacks-to-be-brought-in.html Damn. Been awhile, but damn.
Coach Tuesday Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 I know it sounds crazy but I bet they could have Sanchez for a 5th...
DanInUticaTampa Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 I know it sounds crazy but I bet they could have Sanchez for a 5th... Might be better than Kolb
mitchmurraydowntown Posted August 25, 2013 Author Posted August 25, 2013 One name: JP Losman, bring him in To run the taco stand.
nick in* england Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Confirmed by Tim Graham, with a third QB as well: http:://blogs.buffalonews.com/press-coverage/2013/08/three-quarterbacks-to-be-brought-in.html You're awful. damn you to hell.
blzrul Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 You know if you can't be the best, be the best at being the worst. Bills got that NAILED.
John in Jax Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXaqDcb51tI Do you really think there is anybody reading this thread....anybody in the whole world....that will cut and paste and watch an untitled, UNKNOWN YT link!? If the answer is "yes", then our society is doomed.
Pete Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 funny how this board does 180 degrees on subjects. Years ago, this board had a draft Leinart affair. The past 13 years this board has been "cut them" , "they suck", "see you Marshawn", "dont let the door hit you" etc. TBD runs players out of town with pitchforks, then criew when their player is not selected. Relax, its preseason. And you need 3 QBs-and 2 of ours are hurt, leaving us with an undrafted rookie. Please don't freak out that the Bills are bringing ni Leinart and Beck
