Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 2 minutes ago, BringBackFergy said: When Josh Rosen was touted as the "MOST NFL ready" QB pre-draft by the ultra-intelligent analysts we see on TV and hear on radio, that would indicate a team wouldn't have to wait 1 1/2 - 4 years for his ascendancy to that level of play. In fact, being "NFL ready" means he should have been ready to go from Day 1 (unlike the other "project QB" taken in the draft). I know, I know...he had a bad O line and no weapons around him. Doesn't that sound familiar given what the "project QB" (JA) had to deal with last year? OK, but when you look year after year how many 1st round drafted QB's flame out, shows that all these experts who tout him really know very little. For whatever reason the QB position appears to be the hardest to project how they fared in college to how much success they will have in the NFL. If he were drafted in the 4th round, would you be saying the same thing or then would people be saying give him some time. Admittedly in todays NFL, no players get any time. Maybe he will still succeed, but for whatever reason it's taking him the longest, who know. He also was the guy most projected to say I don't need football too, so could just be he's not motivated enough, maybe in the right situation that will change, but the odds are stacked against him.

buffalo2218 Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 What worse way is there to rattle the confidence of a second year QB by practically dropping him in to a blender?

I'm not saying the Bills WILL lose, mind you, I'm just not at the "Bills are great, definitely getting 12 wins" stage just yet. They've played one good team this year, and they lost. Is it that unreasonable to acknowledge that any given NFL team can beat any other NFL team on any given Sunday? Not unreasonable at all, but very unlikely the fins come out with a win, this is not Fitzies old Bills teams. SM will make it known to the whole team that anything but full effort will embarrass themselves and Buffalo. Yes it’s still early in the season for long term predictions, but I think we are trending in the right direction, jmo. Go Bills!!!
Augie Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 Hoping we get Bad Fitzy, obviously. I don’t know how you don’t get lynched in the locker room if he stayed with Rosen.
Nanker Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 The Bills could end Fitzy's career... Josh Rosen's too.
Irv Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 I love Fitz but would not be disappointed in a beard tackle or two. You could hide a German Shepard in that thing.
Putin Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 I cant blame Flores for starting Fitzy , putting Rosen against our defense without much help up front is SUICIDE ,
Doc Brown Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 Not good. Definitely worth a moneyline bet on the Fins now to drown my misery if we blow it.
Beast Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 The Fish have no talent and some are worried now that Fitz is QBing them? LOL He did so well against Baltimore!

John from Riverside Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 This is really a shame...I was really looking forward to watching Rosen get destroyed by our D this week 1
Oregonbillsfan Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 Where are all the guys who said we picked the wrong Josh?

I was stunned that the Bills, with a very green Josh Allen pressed into playing by the horrific performance of Nathan Peterman, were able to soundly thrash the Vikings in Week 3 last year. Don’t take anything for granted! 1 1

No, it’s Fitz they are fearful of. You didn’t see any I’m worried about the Fish crap when it was thought Rosen was their starter.

Fitz gave that whole team a spark when he came in and almost completed a comeback. Everyone looked like they played harder for Fitz. Its obviously still a game we should win. Hopefully we don’t get the good Fitz that shows up a couple game per season (though I do have faith in our defense if we get good Fitz). Agree. Fitz always plays with a chip on his shoulder against the Bills. Fortunately his surrounding cast is pretty bad and shouldn't be a problem against our D. 1
