Steve O Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Ok what about the other experts outside of kiper?What was Jaws saying about losman? Not reading through three pages of reply's so apologies if this has been posted, Jaws thought he would have a better career that the 3 qb's that went ahead of him (manning, roth'berger, rivers)...said he played behind the worst offensive line ever assembled in college Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 The 7 or 8 in coverage aren't all deep. They give opponents a chance to clog up the whole field, including the short routes. And yes, with minutes to throw, against the terrible teams, he threw some long ones. Where have they been lately, when we have been having trouble? Didn't say the 7 or 8 were all deep. That would be simply stupid for any DC to try. They're always 2 deep, minimum. And looking at the Cleveland game, like many last year (Denver, Jax for example) they are often times 3 deep. But I digress. The point is that our passing success earlier on (not just in the last two minutes of games BTW), combined with our inability to run the ball, caused teams to drop more players into pass coverage as they DARED us to run. Until we started running and finding our backs on swing passes like the other night, we couldn't have any success. That said, we had a few opportunities the other night. Cleveland HAD TO adjust because Lynch and Jackson were killing them. Edwards, having lost his confidence, either didn't see, refused to throw, or waited and waited until his receivers found even MORE seperation. In any case, he missed the opportunities to really make Cleveland pay. As for where they've been lately? They've all been inside Trent's head. It's obvious he's pressing. He'll either be a better QB for having gone through it or not. We'll see. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKing Posted November 22, 2008 Author Share Posted November 22, 2008 Ha ha ha ha. As I read through the thread, the pattern becomes clear, and it's pretty funny. The King: He's a disaster. replies: some agreeing and some disagreeing The King: If you disagree, just explain why replies: several explanations The King: See, nobody is explaining why. replies: several more explanations The King: All I ask is that if you disagree, you just explain why replies: yet more explanations The King: Nobody can explain why ad infinitum The King has no clothes. I'm out of this thread. No one invited you into this thread. All I have heard so far is that it's all the falt of the many coaches. Every single coach we had was a bum and none of it was Losman's fault. That is nonsense . I'm not accepting nonsense, I'm looking for rational answers not weak transparent excuses.

TheKing Posted November 22, 2008 Author Share Posted November 22, 2008 hello King, welcome to ignore Those of us involved with reviewing this disaster don't care. No one invited you into the thread. I didn't and no one else did. And I doubt that anyone cares who you put on ignore. I know that I don't. So leave, we won't miss a beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheKing Posted November 22, 2008 Author Share Posted November 22, 2008 Lets not review the losman disaster. Lets move on . He is gone at year end. Stop living in the past. Those who don't study history are sentenced to repeat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and that statement would make sense if the members of twobillsdrive were the ones drafting. Of course, it's the front office's job to dwell on the pick to make sure they don't make similar mistakes with another QB, but we as fans have no responsibility to study Losman.

Who gives a damn? I don't , do you? Who needs him in my thread , I didn't ask for him to be here, did you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not what I meant. We obviously have no control over who they draft. But fans can certainly control their overzealousness for a particular player and learn to allow all opinions without getting hostile and vulgar. Would you be pleased to see another episode of an over-the-top fan club forming up and coming out of the woodwork the next time the Bills draft a bum like Losman ? Fans should learn from this so that next time they won't get so obnoxious with other fans , in their eagerness to attach their noses to a player's ###. Next time we could see fans being a little more rational if they in fact learn to use their brains. In the end all their name calling and hostility went for naught because Losman busted anyways. Some of the most hard core losman fanboys are still kicking and screaming and throwing insults around, but December 29th will be BlueBird Day whether they like it or not.
