Bill from NYC Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 http://www.nfl.com/news/story/8845109 440461[/snapback] Yeah, I cannot believe it! How can a player THIS bad ever get any recognition?
Taro T Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 http://www.nfl.com/news/story/8845109 440461[/snapback] So what? Bledsoe played well for the Bills his 1st 8 games and then the 1st 2 games of the next season. He more or less did bubkis the rest of the time. He could be the NFC offensive player of the year (but we all know he won't) and I would still think that the Bills made the right decision this off season. Dave.
VABills Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Yeah guy throws for a 145 rating and you can't believe it? You probably thought Peters should get AFC for his 1 yard TD though.

Crap Throwing Monkey Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 http://www.nfl.com/news/story/8845109 440461[/snapback] Like I said...seems some evil bastard cut the wrong QB...
MartyBall4Buffalo Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Congrats to Drew on a game well played. I hope he has many more like them. It seems like a lot of people in order to like losman feel the need to justify bashing Bledsoe. Let it go already. He's no longer here. It's a good thing. Yes Bledsoe is still good enough to be a decent nfl stater in this league as evidenced by a good game on the road against an AFC PLAYOFF TEAM from last season. Losman did well in his 1st start as well. Yes we know Drew has serious shortcomings in his game, and down the stretch may very well fade out, but the fact of the matter is if he's good or bad it doesn't effect the Buffalo Bills any longer. The Cowboys could make the playoffs and it would not have been the wrong decision to relase bledsoe as bledsoe was going to bring us nowhere. We don't know if Losman will, but the unknown is better then the known. Best of Luck to Drew for the rest of the season and Best of Luck to the beginning of hopefully a great career for JP Losman!
Beerball Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Congrats to DB, couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.
Cheeseburger_in_paradise Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 but the fact of the matter is if he's good or bad it doesn't effect the Buffalo Bills any longer. 440498[/snapback] Unless somehow these two teams meet in the super bowl. But the Bills should know how to beat him.
aussiew Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 But the Bills should know how to beat him. We also knew how to beat the Cowboys in the Atlanta SB, but threw it away.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Raise your hand if you think Bledose will do that well against a really good Redskins Defense that blitzes like crazy...AND just happens to have his former head coach coming up with a defensive gameplan for him? Bledsoe lucked out when the Chargers held off blitzing...Marty showing once again his complete refusual to adjust his scheme...but that wont happen this week.
Ramius Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 Raise your hand if you think Bledose will do that well against a really good Redskins Defense that blitzes like crazy...AND just happens to have his former head coach coming up with a defensive gameplan for him?

The Tomcat Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 I'm happy for him... That said...he's in trouble this week.....I wish we played Dallas this year....now that would be something.

Bledsoe lucked out when the Chargers held off blitzing him like crazy...that wont happen this week. 440539[/snapback] Did you think that he would be the NFC Offensive Player Of The Week in week one? No? Well guess what.....There is a far better chance that he beats the Skins than what he accomplished in week one. It amazes me that you haters cannot even dig up a molecule of respect for a former Bill who had a great game. When Travis Henry is named AFC Offensive Player Of The Week, I will salute his accomplishment. Btw, this will never happen.

I think he had a great game...I just dont drop to my knees like the rest of the national media are doing for Bledsoe, completely ignoring the fact that, much like our success against the Texans, its only one game. And with the Cowboys, even their fans are commenting that the Chargers held off the blitz so Bledsoe had oodles of time to throw. I'm simply pointing out that the Skins are a MUCH better Defense under GW, and are known for their complex blitz schemes. Plus, if anyone knows the faults and shortcomings of Drew Bledsoe, its Gregg Williams. He saw it all first-hand and will make Bledsoe's life very difficult come Sunday. If Bledsoe does well next week, I'm be even more impressed with him...but that doesnt mean I want him back here. He may fit Dallas' system but his time with us was a failed experiment.
BRH Posted September 14, 2005 Posted September 14, 2005 I just can't get over the 145 rating...that's all. 440480[/snapback] Tim Rattay had a 141 rating last week. That should tell you all you need to know about passer ratings.

Everything I've seen this week says he played good, but will eventually resort back to his old self. One guy even said "pull a Bledsoe." This seems to be a pattern for Bledsoe. He gets let go, which lights a fire under his butt and he goes and plays well. Then when the feeling passes he resorts back to his old ways. I wish him success, but he wasn't the right guy for Buffalo. I'm not gonna blast him for playing well and getting a award he deserved this week. Nor do I feel he needs to suck it up in Dallas to prove the Bills braintrust was right.
