3rdand12 Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 No he doesn't, moot point is the right terminology. Look it up if you're not sure. No i am pretty sure its mute The QB situation was good enough to make the playoffs last year short of some poorly timed penalties and turnovers. We're better this year with a slight downgrade at QB. We also have a coach who's been to the playoffs before and isn't going to blow it due to a losing attitude. Our odds are better to make the playoffs this year. Also, don't forget the logjam in the wild card race last year. It probably won't be as competitive this year. If we even have the exact same year we'll probably make the playoffs. at this point i think the AFC east just got more competitive all around
Beerball Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 No i am pretty sure its mute you are pretty correct.
3rdand12 Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Cassell will start. He'll be better than most expect. Pray that Tyrod doesn't ever have to start because he is awful and has shown 0 improvement in 4 years in the league. He might be okay to keep around for the occasional trick running play but nothing more. how do you know he has not improved? he has only played one game behind Flacco . His clipboard skills could be through the roof by now! you are pretty correct. well, i am certifiable so you are probably right !
WotAGuy Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Gotcha, my bad. I wasn't trying to come across as a smartass if it appeared that way to you. I don't read or contribute to this board as much as I used to. Way to many instigators here. .......he says after instigating a vocabulary argument! j/k
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Three years in a row now we go into the season without a starter at qB, That is a major problem. If nothing changes we are worse than last year... Imo so what do your deep inside sources say we will be doing about this????

Bob Malooga Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) Chad Kelly will be the savior after winning a national championship at Ole Miss this season. Hackenburg, Cook, Jones...one of them will be the Bills QB in 2016, I'd bet my life on it. (I'm sure Terry would LOVE Hackenburg too.) Edited March 14, 2015 by Bubbles from Sunnyvale

Hackenburg, Cook, Jones...one of them will be the Bills QB in 2016, I'd bet my life on it. (I'm sure Terry would LOVE Hackenburg too.) Hackenburg suffered from a new coach,lost receivers and new system. I really like this kid or Cook.
Captain Hindsight Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 why don't we just trade for Aaron Rodgers? he is pretty decent. slightly better than EJ and Matt Cassel. problem solved!He looked awful in that game against us. I think he is overrated
Alphadawg7 Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) I feel more comfortable about the QB situation now that the Bills signed Tyrod Taylor. Matt Casell is just unspectacular and EJ may not be the right player for the job. So let's wait and see what any of these guys can do. You feel better now that we signed a QB who's barely seen the field and done nothing with it when rarely on it? As if he's a safer bet over EJ who's actually played and won games, including 3 fourth quarter come backs or Cassel who's a seasoned vet. Got it... Edited March 15, 2015 by Alphadawg7
The Crowing Rooster Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 I keep seeing all these posts where downers keep talking about the qb situation and all our moves mean nothing unless it's fixed. Or there are posts about not getting Bradford or someone else in trade. We don't have a qb anyone wants to trade for. Unless Kaep or Brees becomes magically available, there was never going to be a major upgrade at qb this year in FA or the draft. It's a moot point. All we can do is stack the talent around our mediocre starter and limit his ability to do damage. So please, stop beating the same drum. We all know the situation and are trying to make the best of it. And for me, I think they've done as good a job in regards to offensive weapons as they can (once we get Clay or another TE) I don't think that our QB position is all that bad. Like the old saying goes you are never that good and you are never that bad as they say you are.
eball Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 I feel better about the QB position already. Cassel is a decent vet/backup option, and Taylor has had a couple of years to sit back and learn behind Flacco with a good coaching staff. They instantly upgrade the situation over last season -- and I haven't given up hope on EJ. One of these three QBs will emerge over the summer to be a viable starter. I don't expect the Bills to draft another project QB this year.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 is this the 2nd mute post on QB's? I agree however MOVE ON Bet ya EJ is Cassels backup. betcha he's not Three years in a row now we go into the season without a starter at qB, That is a major problem. If nothing changes we are worse than last year...Imo only 3? many would say a decade or more so when is EJ getting cut? Inquiring Minds want to know
PromoTheRobot Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 how do you know he has not improved? he has only played one game behind Flacco . His clipboard skills could be through the roof by now! well, i am certifiable so you are probably right ! Brett Favre was an unknown third stringer when the Packers got him from Atlanta. Just saying.

jimmy10 Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 We needed to add bodies at QB this offseason and we did just that. I'm glad everyone we've got has at the very least sniffed play at the NFL level, because that was the best we were going to find. Is it a great situation? Hell no. Is it an imperfect solution to an imperfect situation? Yup. Open competition in Pittsford. May the best man win.
3rdand12 Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Brett Favre was an unknown third stringer when the Packers got him from Atlanta. Just saying. Fair enough. Ya never know , right ? I agree the Bills are in better shape at QB then they were last years at this time !
OldTimer1960 Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) Brett Favre was an unknown third stringer when the Packers got him from Atlanta. Just saying. I wouldn't say that Favre was an unknown when GB traded for him. Atlanta had taken him in the early 2nd round (33rd overall) and had just finished his rookie year when GB traded for him. Edited March 15, 2015 by OldTimer1960
BuffaloFan68 Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Right now I feel that we have a lot of QB talent on the roster, we just need and finally have the right coaching staff to utilize it properly. That said, I still want us to draft Sean Mannion in the 3rd.
