Punch Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 (edited) How is he still eligible?* Jeff Russo @JeffRussoWKBW 15s Source: Bills are expected signed QB Dennis Dixon to practice squad *(apparently, he only spent 1 season on Pittsburgh's Practice Squad and has only been active for 4 total games--- so, he still has PS eligibility) Edited October 8, 2013 by Punch
Dean Cain Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 A guy who turns 29 in January going to the PS.
Dylanme8 Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 Who cares we got a new back up guard that got dropped to waivers twice, oh, and legursky is back!!
8-8 Forever? Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 they obviously like Tuel a lot and have made a bunch of sacrifices to keep him (like not putting him on the practice squad where some other team can grab him) , so I guess it doesn't matter who the PS QB is..
K D Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 I didn't realize he was so old. It feels like yesterday he was at Oregon. Man I'm getting old. Well at least they have another option. I'd rank him above Thad and Tuel, which unfortunately isn't saying much. Can he still run well? Read option and wild cat anyone?
Johnny Hammersticks Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 What are people complaining about? We are allegedly going to sign a QB with NFL starting experience to our practice squad. Worse things could happen, ya know?
NoSaint Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 What are people complaining about? We are allegedly going to sign a QB with NFL starting experience to our practice squad. Worse things could happen, ya know? A guy many on the board actually want, without taking up a 4th spot on the 53 with a qb.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 (edited) How is he still eligible?* Jeff Russo @JeffRussoWKBW 15s Source: Bills are expected signed QB Dennis Dixon to practice squad *(apparently, he only spent 1 season on Pittsburgh's Practice Squad and has only been active for 4 total games--- so, he still has PS eligibility) A lot of people found him intriguing when he was brought in and he's actually started an NFL game which is more than your typical PS QB. He seems to have a big history of knee problems, though, which may not be what we want backing up a QB with an emerging record of knee problems. Edited October 8, 2013 by Hopeful
bowery4 Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 Wow, he is that old? Never knew that. And on the PS, sure why not? I almost like it (but hope I never have to care much). Go Thad! Go Bills!!
eball Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 A guy who turns 29 in January going to the PS. Even old guys need practice.
The Big Cat Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 Wow, he is that old? Never knew that. And on the PS, sure why not? I almost like it (but hope I never have to care much). Go Thad! Go Bills!! He was 23 when he graduated college
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 Funny that the most experienced QB in our sights (Dixon) is PS eligible, but the least experienced one (White) isn't.
John from Riverside Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 I have come to the conclusion that no matter what the move the bills make...someone will find fault with it.....unless it is the TOP solution even though we might have even in the run for Freeman being that our future is EJ Manuel....... Look....what we are trying to do is find guys that wont crap the bed if they have to come in and try to manage/win a game for us......the bills are in fact looking at all options....they made the right choice with Thad Lewis.......they did not know that Kolb was one hit away from from being concussed......they put a experienced QB on the practice squad.....they are NOT starting Jeff Tuel (past reguimes would have gotten very stubbern here at the expense of the team) I am like Marrone and this knew coaching staff and top execs a little more every day.
ChevyVanMiller Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 Kudos to Uncle Flap for calling this one early yesterday.
1B4IDie Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 Has this been confirmed anywhere else? Russo seems to be the only one making this claim.
