Buffalo Barbarian Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Dear I say it ... we should have kept Fitz. With his noodle arm he would have fit in with Marrone's West Coast style offense and Hackett's hurry up.
Ozymandius Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I actually like this signing. As a long-term solution, of course not. But for a few games, this guy's pretty exciting. We can run the read option with impunity knowing that if this guy gets hammered or concussed, he's just a street free agent we picked up. I would rather watch PatWhite-ball than Fitz-ball or Tuel-ball or Kolb-ball. And frankly, until he improves, EJ-ball.
Omar Little Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I would rather watch PatWhite-ball than Fitz-ball or Tuel-ball or Kolb-ball. And frankly, until he improves, EJ-ball. Yeah? Be careful what you wish for. White is garbage.
Clockwork Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I'm ok with this. I wasn't thinking Freeman would come here, feeling he would want to go some place that wasn't committed to a qb the way we are to EJ. Looks like Tuel will get his chance next Sunday
Dean Cain Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Wow, the Vikings who had better QB depth get deeper while we get Pat White.
RussellDopeland Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 I'd rather have a 44 year old Favre than White. Gonna be a long year
apuszczalowski Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Pat White is not the answer.He has done nothing in the NFL. I would have preferred them to have signed Dixon or Leftwich. They have at least played in the NFL. Also, where is Jason Campbell ? This really sucks. Injured and just moved up to #2 (Well, technically staying at #2 since Hoyer was their #3 and jumped Campbell to start apparently) in Cleveland now that Hoyer is done
SF Bills Fan Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 My guess is Tuel starts Sunday, plays terribly, White plays next 2 games, plays terribly, EJ comes back and gets hurt again, I cry and wish I grew up rooting for another team You and I think alike.
Bills Fan since '64 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Pat White. Buzz kill multiple times. YAY! Hope he proves me wrong. Reminds me of the buzz kill when they named Buddy as GM and Chan as coach
KOKBILLS Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Dear I say it ... we should have kept Fitz. With his noodle arm he would have fit in with Marrone's West Coast style offense and Hackett's hurry up. Fitz was not coming back... On the other hand the Bills resigned Tavaris Jackson for insurance to address situations just like the one they are in now, then cut him 4 months later...If you're looking for the mistake...It's the Jackson cut...Not Fitz and that ridiculous contract...

I kind of enjoyed watching Fitz on Sunday, especially that touchdown run and the way he threw the ball in the air in celebration. Although what I liked most of all is that he wasn't wearing a Bills uniform.
jahnyc Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) This is a disaster. Tuel and White. Yikes. This is embarrassing. How are we going to win any games with this duo? One is an undrafted free agent rookie and the other could not make an NFL roster out of training camp. Someone in the front office should be fired for this because it is going to cost us four losses or more. Edited October 7, 2013 by jahnyc
Kevin Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Dear I say it ... we should have kept Fitz. With his noodle arm he would have fit in with Marrone's West Coast style offense and Hackett's hurry up. Deadspin screwed that up. I think that was the plan all along. Until Nix and Dominic got wire tapped. In all reality Bills fans this is why teams have 3 active QBs. It was a gamble to go with 2 and it didn't pay off.
Bills Fan since '64 Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 Thnk about it - how bad must Thaddeus Lewis be?

apuszczalowski Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 White made the Redskins out of training camp. It was either he makes the Redskins as their #3, behind RGIII and Cousins, or he becomes a FA. Redskins went with proven NFL experience over more "potential" and inexperience, that's why Grossman beat him out

Buftex Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 this will happen. Except EJ won't be injured again. Something tells me he's gonna learn of his awareness from this a bit. Just hoping we steal a game in there somewhere. Hope you are right mrags... I am a little worried about 2 knee injuries (one on each knee?) in two months...even before he was hurt Thursday night, I was telling my buddy that I didn't think EJ looked comfortable running the ball...he is much more of a "lumberer" than I realized. Will admit, I saw very little of him in college, but I was under the impression he was a little more fleet footed than he appears to be. Dear I say it ... we should have kept Fitz. With his noodle arm he would have fit in with Marrone's West Coast style offense and Hackett's hurry up. Do the Titans need a safety? Just got a "fantasy football update" saying that the Titans are looking for another QB in case Fitz falters...going to kick the tires on JaMarcus Russell...just goes to show you how bad the QB market is. I don't know a hell of a lot about Pat White, other than that he seems to get cut by an NFL team every pre-season...but I also remember, just this last August, the prevailing feeling from NFL people was that Terrell Pryor had "no future" in the NFL, and he was being compared to Russell...I know it is early, but he has looked pretty damn good in the 2 and half games (writing this at half time of the Chargers/Raiders game) I have seen him play this year. Really good...
