scribo Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 With the first quarter of the 2008 NFL season in the books, SI's Peter King says.... Trent Edward is the league MVP. He also rates the Bills #5, overall, this week. MMQB reports... MVP of the Quarter: Trent Edwards, QB, Buffalo. My MVP is tied for 12th in touchdown passes with four, 10th in passing yards with 930 and 10th in passer rating at 93.5. But the Bills are 4-0, and the difference is an efficient quarterback who, like all the great ones, plays better when the game's on the line than any other time of the game. The Bills trailed 16-10 at Jacksonville in the fourth quarter, and Edwards threw a beautiful rainbow to James Hardy in the corner of the end zone to win it. The Bills trailed Oakland by nine with six minutes left, and Edwards led scoring drives to win it. The Bills trailed St. Louis by eight at the half Sunday, and Buffalo put up 25 points in the last 30 minutes to rout the Rams. He's got the steady-handed Brady cool about him, too. I was called a homer by a fellow Bills fan last week when I asked about this potential during a Tim Graham SportsNation chat. I fear we're bound to see Trent on the cover of SI before too long.

RayFinkle Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 When Brady went down, King didn't have anyplace to focus his man love. He seems to have latched on to Trent, who makes his was into every MMQB article now. Good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murra Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Correct. He picked the Rams over us last week. So is he just hypocritical about everything in an effort to cover his own ass, or does he have a potentially threatening mental disorder we should look into?

scribo Posted September 30, 2008 Author Share Posted September 30, 2008 I would have to bet on the covering his ass part, as I don't believe he actually watched the Bills' game this week, so he didn't just get convinced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Trooth Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 let me guess... everyone loves peter king now. A few weeks ago he was a moron and a POS. What have we learned here? Don't write or say anything about the Bills unless it is positive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
