Stussy109 Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 I'm going with Losman. Yea yea, holcomb is efficient, and can "manage" an offense, but he's still good for some bonehead plays, and we need more of a risk taker under center. He's not the guy I want running my 2 minute offense in the 4th quarter down by 6 pts.

As long as Clements believes he has a QB he can be clever with, this offense is doomed.

Where was Willis in the 2nd half? Where's Willis in the redzone?
crazyDingo Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 I say substitute JP inside the 20's and run lots of gadget plays with Sam Adams as halfback and Roscoe in the single wing formation! We can call it the Buffalo Wing! Someone e-mail that to Dr. Z.

This is like retards being led by deaf/mutes. That's what's become of our beloved Bills.
billsfanone Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Give the kid some experience and see what he's made of. See if he's a bust. See what he has to work on for next year. Do the Eli thing.
Nyghtewynd Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 The season's over. Play the kid. Screw the veterans, and if any of them don't like it, release them.

CentralVaBills Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 You gotta be realistic now and put JP in. This team is going nowhere. I think Holcombe has done well considering his talent level. BUT, the team is sinking and JP needs to be in there the rest of the way.
Dan Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Its simple... JP. The biggest problem here is one of statistics. KH has all the stats that say he should be the starter. But stats don't win games, winners win games. That intangible quality that allows players to pull victory from the jaws of defeat. Look no further than Brady last night. He sucked it up all night with bad passes and mediocre play. But put the game on the line in the 4th quarter and he finds a way to win. Thats what we need... someone that finds a way to way. I'm nto saying JP is that guy, certainly the first 4 games didn't show that; however, all I'm saying is that he needs more playing time to determine if he has that quality. It the same problem with Josh Reed and why I'd be in favor of cutting him. He makes plenty of catches and looks good. Except for that one play that we absolutely need. Then he drops the ball. Overall his stats are great, but in my opinion you can't count n him when the game is on the line. Thats been the Bills biggest problem for years. We keep going going with guys that have great stats, but don't have the character of a winner. It goes all the way back to Flutie/Johnson. RJ had all the talent and stats, so he had everyone behind him. Flutie looked like sh-- on a stick playing, but we won 10 games and made the playoffs. So who did we chose to go with.. the winner or the guy that looks good with stats. and the examples could gon on for days. Bottom line. Get some players on the field that know how to win and we'll win. Keep mediocre players that always play it safe and we'll manage to always lose. JP seems like teh type to eventually be a winner, but we'll never know with him on the bench. Last night, KH showed me exactly why he's never been a full time starter. When the game is on the line who do you want back there?
CoachChuckDickerson Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 I honestly don't think it matters anymore at this point. One legged Dillon ran for 72 yds and 2 TDs in 3 quarters. Priest Holmes and Larry Johnson are going to eat this D for lunch, and then come back for seconds. I will admit, JP running around like a chicken with his head cut off out there is more entertaining than Holcomb. Holcomb is still the safe start though.
Crap Throwing Monkey Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Wow, you actually said something that didn't piss me off. Nice job. 492050[/snapback] And I care? Do I even give you a second though?
Realist Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 If I'm MM, there is no way JP goes back in there yet. Look at the game Moulds had. As long as KH is getting him the ball, he won't go whining to the coaches, so Mularkey will keep KH in there. However, if I'm me, I'd send JP out there.
Ramius Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 wow, how did "Holcombs arm" manage to vote 8 times in this poll?
gggbills Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 I'm going with Losman. Yea yea, holcomb is efficient, and can "manage" an offense, but he's still good for some bonehead plays, and we need more of a risk taker under center. He's not the guy I want running my 2 minute offense in the 4th quarter down by 6 pts. 491991[/snapback] I think MM will decide after the Pats/Indy game. If the Pats lose, they will be 4-4 and we will be one game out of first with the Pats coming to town in Dec. I think as long as MM still thinks we can take the division, he will play KH

Bill from NYC Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 I will admit, JP running around like a chicken with his head cut off out there is more entertaining than Holcomb. Holcomb is still the safe start though. 492107[/snapback] Can't argue with any of this. Yeah, I am thinking that they should put in JP. I hope it isn't TOO ugly.
BEAST MODE BABY! Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 Hey, where is the option for Shane Matthews in the poll?
Risin Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 You're assuming we'd be w/in 6 in the 4th quarter with Lossssman playing? 492235[/snapback] Would have been last night. Theoretically, we might have been up by more.
