ofiba Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 "Start Holcomb", "this team is going 2-14", 'Losman is the worst QB ever". Why is everyone so quick to jump the gun? The level headed posters on this board expected there to be some rough games for JP. Granted, the D is really suprising us with their spotty play, especially on third down, but the season is still young. Every single year, some teams start hot, and people talk about superbowl. Some teams start slow, and everyone talks about who they'll get in the draft. By the end of the year, there is always some "who would have expected that turnaround" team that gels together as the year goes on. JP Losman just finished his 3rd NFL start of his life, yet everyone wants him to be an experienced vet. He's going to miss some throws, and he's going to make some mistakes. So far we lost to a 3-0 team, and a 2-1 team that was the 2nd best team in the NFC last year. They were both NFC losses. Luckily, the rest of the AFC east is chugging along just like we are. Hold it together, and remember that we are 3 games into a 16 game season with a qb who is only going to get better with experience. Go Bills.
sweet baboo Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 did you watch the game? i've been watching this inept offense for nearly a decade
Fan in San Diego Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 It's not the offense that has me worried ! It's the defense. The supposed strong part of our team !

But I'm not trying to argue that the team played better than it looked. I am saying the season is still young and so is our QB. We could've lost 60000-0 and that does not change the fact that were are 1-2 and 1-0 vs the AFC in a 16 game season.

bflo83 Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 The bottom line is that at the end of the day we could be 1-2 and in a three way tie for 2nd in one of the toughest divisions in football. Both of our losses have been against good nfc teams. Next up we face the Saints (who admittedly are hard to figure out) and then two division games against the fish and the jets. The fish are playing way above their heads right now and the jets could have some serious problems with both of their qbs banged up. It's not like last year's 0-4 start. Everyone jumping on and off the bandwagon are just going to hurt themselves. I didn't see any of the game today as I was coaching my daughters' soccer game so I have to reserve judgement on the coaching, playcalling or JP's play. As a fan I'm more concerned about Spikes and the severity of his injury. So let's all just take a deep breath and talk about this one.... BTW - I turned the tv on as soon as I walked in the door and saw Drew throw a pick that was returned for a td. I change the channel and hear that punk a$$ Rodney Harrison is out with an injury. So it's not all bad!!!!!
