BullBuchanan Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 When he stepped onto an NFL field, and when the Vikings were willing to let him walk with no guarantee of landing Cousins. Even if he didn't explode his knee, he was still getting replaced. The kid is not a starting caliber QB

Coming back from a massive injury like that is a big deal but I've yet to see him prove he can't play QB.

EasternOHBillsFan Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 Does Bridgewater play WR or TE? Exactly. Please stop this nonsense.
Fadingpain Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 Bridgewater may be the best thing we can get at the QB position for quite some time. We won't do it.
Thurman#1 Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 (edited) Last thing we need right now is an inexperienced QB who will need to be developed.

Then McCarron became #3 not #1 or #2 and showed signs of discontent (according to Carucci). If we'd known that would happen then yeah, Bridgewater would have been a better pickup.

Augie Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 I suppose trading for him NOW makes it a new thread idea. That’s different than yesterday, or the day before, or the week before.....
#34fan Posted October 23, 2018 Posted October 23, 2018 He wouldn't last five seconds behind that sorry O-line.

Expand Yeah and why did our brain trust make Mccaron the #3?????? Hmmmmmmm???????? Worst blunder in recent memory honestly a huge and awful mistake and stain. I honestly think its a criminal, fireable offense and im usually pretty level headed and I WAS a mcbean fan Like how did peterman bamboozle these coaches wow. What an indictment on their ability to evaluate I made a post before season started saying it was embarassing to be starting a punter thats never even been on the team for 1 week before the season started... I mean i thought that was bad but this.. this is just beyond incompetent and it shows and quite frankly embarassing for fans and owners. Coaches im sure too if their egos arnt so big they cant recognize their own collosal mistakes.

If we are going to chase other teams somewhat available QB's it should be either Carr or Foles. Why are people so hung up on this guy who was mediocre/average before he blew his knee into a million pieces? Expand Derek Carr would be very very nice, would pretty much guarantee we end up with a franchise QB. I'd offer Oakland two 2nds, but I wouldn't give up our 1st.

Expand Right. Last time I heard that was JP Losman...oh wait, it was Trent Edwards, wait nvm, it was Ryan Fitzpatrick, no that's not it, it was EJ Manuel, oh shoot...it was Tyrod Taylor! It's always something, it's just never the QB is it? If it's not the WR's or TE's, it's the O-line...if not the O-line, it's the Offensive Coordinator. If not the OC, it's the HC. It's the f'ing QB's... And I'm saying this as someone who's well aware of the O-line & WR situations, as I've been harping on it all offseason. But unless you haven't been paying attention to the All-22 breakdowns or what everyone in the world can see, the QB's are far WORSE than any other position on offense. Until the QB's can even improve to the level of the other skill positions, you can't blame them. There's plenty of evidence showing the WR's, as poorly assembled a group as they may be, are getting open more often than not, and it's the awful QB play that's really dragging down the offense. Any half-decent QB could at least consistently go 16/25 for 175 yards, and 1 TD with most any group of WR's and TE's. Problem is we don't have anything even close to resembling "half decent." Deny all you want, but you're foolish to pretend otherwise. Ignore all the players (both former, and current...including those on our team), coaches, scouts, experts, journalists (both local & national), statistics, etc. but no capable QB's could crap the bed week in & week out like Josh Allen + Peterman + Anderson. - Peter King, Murph & Tasker - https://wgr550.radio.com/media/audio-channel/10-16-hr-3-one-bills-live (Bills QB situation is "lunacy") - All 22: https://twitter.com/Cover_1_/status/1049420057254776832 - More All 22 (Allen's supporting cast is limited by HIM, not the other way around) - https://thedraftnetwork.com/2018/10/09/josh-allens-struggles-go-beyond-lackluster-supporting-cast/ - Todd Gurley alone has more points than the entire Bills Offense - https://sports.yahoo.com/todd-gurley-outscored-bills-7-weeks-025127902.html - The Bills passing offense is averaging the same stats as teams from 1941 - http://www.footballperspective.com/week-6-passing-stats-the-bills-are-above-average-at-passing-for-1941/ But stay in denial, even though all the evidence points to the QB's holding back the already low-skilled WR's, TE's and offense in general Edited October 23, 2018 by BigDingus
