Last Guy on the Bench Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Backup - want somebody with startign experience...Shane Matthews a great option...."ideal backup" 241878[/snapback] Yeah, he really sounds high on Shane - basically if he wants to play next year he's the Bills' first choice.

eball Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 He is just basically saying what I and others said this year. We looked good on offense due to a lot of variables. The defense created a short field and a lot of other things came into play. It's obvious the braintrust had no confidence in Drew at all. 241875[/snapback] you are wrong BF....the fans forced donahoe into this decision. every scout in the league knows losman can't cut it. just ask VAbills.

JinVA Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 TD said the reason to release Drew was based on a discussion he had with some guy named Ice at the season opener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I dont blame Shane Matthews if he wants to retire though...the guy put up with Spurrier for so long, he deserves it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Why? The only person responsible for us not going 16-0 and winning the Superbowl is off the team. What's left to bash? CW 241876[/snapback] Great post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nervous Guy Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Donohoe:"We're not trying to change directions, we're trying to move forward, and we feel that our best opportunity to move forward with the offense is with JP at quarterback" Checkmate! That's all Donohoe needed to say! 241881[/snapback] hmmm...isn't that what he said about RJ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buftex Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 If Shane Matthews is TD's first choice to be Losman's back-up, this team is truly screwed, if Losman gets injured. Matthews is not a good NFL QB....hard to believe he is serious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corp000085 Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 I just caught the MM interview on nflnetwork... i refuse to open realaudio to watch the rest... My only comments are that a) MM needs to cut out some of the "um"s, B) MM is sharply dressed... I have on a blue checked button down shirt (mine is brooks brothers, monogrammed "C000085", his is polo), C) He said all the right things. The only thing that i "read into" was his comments on drew being "upset". MM seems very set on what he said, and the only thing i got out of that comment was "upset" probably = "threw something through a wall". I'm hoping that the DB call is on nfl network at 2... very very interested in what he has to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BF_in_Indiana Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 hmmm...isn't that what he said about RJ? 241903[/snapback] Yes I believe he did. RJ was the right choice at the time. Flutie was nearing 40 at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 It was a 45-minute discussion too. 241953[/snapback] I heard it was a 3 day meeting, with catered lunches and Ice getting to sit in the owners box also during the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
