Expand I think the plug was pretty much pulled after 20 games. He only had 3 starts after that. 2 were because of the starter being injured. How should we have handled that differently?

Love you bills fam Expand Agreed. People must be bored of people saying this, but who are the best QBs in the game? Brees, Rodgers and Brady? They all spent a year on the bench, or more. As did Carson Palmer, Philip Rivers and Kirk Cousins. It ain't a bad thing. It doesn't guarantee anything either, of course, but it does give guys time to ingrain good mechanical habits if they need upgrades and to figure out how to study film and how to start to read defences.

Just Joshin' Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 I have no doubt there will be a post that the rookie is a bust the first time a ball hits the ground in camp.

Pitchforks being sharpened and oil being bought. Expand One of my favorite novelists, Georges Bernanos, said that it would require God at the final judgement to clarify "why so many imbeciles." Unfortunately, the wise are always few. Can't let the irrationality of the mass of men deter one from pursuing excellence -- in this case, drafting a potential franchise qb.

That's going to be the key if we draft a guy and start him right away. If not, he's going to get roasted by the hot pocket fan base. Which is completely unfair and stupid, really. 2
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 I’m on board with this. As long as the pick isn’t Jackson.
