Rudyc80 Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 I would think no.....just because we won 9 games and still they are giving him the boot. the only way maybe Bledsoe would ahve come back is if he had won a playoff game with solid play cause clearly this frnacjise doesnt have any confidence in him if they are releasing him for a rookie. Just curious on your thoughst though on wether he would still be here had he beat pitts second stringers?
Mike32282 Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 IF the Bills beat Pittsburgh and Bledsoe had a decent game...he is still the starter today and would at least compete for the job in training camp, IMO.

col_forbin Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 I say he would still be the starter, unless he had a horrible wildcard game. Glad he tanked it up during the Pitt game.
plenzmd1 Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 Think that game was kinda like a Saturday at a Major Golf Tourney. While I do not think Bledsoe could have definetly "won" the job the day, he sure as hell could "lose" it. And I think he did

Just curious on your thoughst though on wether he would still be here had he beat pitts second stringers? 241468[/snapback] Beat Pitt and he still has an awful game? No. Beat Pitt and he has a good to great game? Yes. We lost AND he looked awful, hence today's press conference.
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 10-6, you're in the playoffs. Yes I think he'd be the starter next year. But again Drew proved when playing a good team, he stunk up the joint and that did him in. I was hoping he'd work out, but I agree, time to move on.
34-78-83 Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 Yes, he would have (and should have) still been the starter if he played well and won vs. Pitt. Unfortunately he did not....
scribo Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 The real question is deeper than the the Pitt game. Does Drew stick around another year as the starter if we beat the Stillers and therefore likely made the playoffs? The answer to that is probably yes.
Rico Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 The real question is deeper than the the Pitt game. Does Drew stick around another year as the starter if we beat the Stillers and therefore likely made the playoffs? The answer to that is probably yes. 241545[/snapback] I think if Drew took the Bills to the Super Bowl and we won, he might have stayed & started. Anything less & it's still JP's team as planned.
mead107 Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 water over the dam , drew is gone , what ifs are bull sh-- now .
IDBillzFan Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 While we're at it, let's discuss what happens if we were able to stop the Homerun Throwback play. Who would be where today?
justnzane Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 I have to say yes. DB did play rather well the second half of the year. He prolly would have thought that he had a chance to start for next year, so he would taken a pay cut and stayed here to eventually get replaced by JP.
scribo Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 I think if Drew took the Bills to the Super Bowl and we won, he might have stayed & started. Anything less & it was still JP's team as planned. 241564[/snapback] Yeah, that would have been really nice.
Dawgg Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 Yes, and I hate to say it but I'm glad that we lost to Pitt in that case. Another year with Drew Bledsoe at the helm would have further slowed this team's development. I would think no.....just because we won 9 games and still they are giving him the boot. the only way maybe Bledsoe would ahve come back is if he had won a playoff game with solid play cause clearly this frnacjise doesnt have any confidence in him if they are releasing him for a rookie. Just curious on your thoughst though on wether he would still be here had he beat pitts second stringers? 241468[/snapback]

Just curious on your thoughst though on wether he would still be here had he beat pitts second stringers? 241468[/snapback] Yes without a doubt.
BF_in_Indiana Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 He is being cut now BECAUSE he lost that game to Cowher and Pittsburgh. That was Donahoe and Mularkeys Super Bowl and Drew couldn't get them past a bunch of third stringers. If that had been another team with another coach than maybe he stays for one more year after a 6 game winning streak, but that was the straw that broke the camels back.
RuntheDamnBall Posted February 16, 2005 Posted February 16, 2005 While we're at it, let's discuss what happens if we were able to stop the Homerun Throwback play. Who would be where today? 241605[/snapback] I'll bite. In your scenario, today we are talking about how RJ = JK.
