gcb34 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Why keep him? Cut him now & make an example of him. A professional QB in the NFL can't lose that ball like he did on Sunday. This type of thing can not be tolerated. This loser mentality has got to be nipped in the bud NOW!!!! Grow a sack Dick!!!!!
marauderswr80 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I agree, but.......thats not the way the organization works. believe it or not the Buffalo Bills front office do try and show some class towards their players. If they didnt cut McCargo by now, they will never do it with JP Losman.

This type of thing can not be tolerated. This loser mentality has got to be nipped in the bud NOW!!!! Grow a sack Dick!!!!! You can't. You'd be down to one QB, Hamdan. The proper thing to do is sit him down for the last two games and play Hamdan.
billsfreak Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Sounds good, but will never happen in Buffalo. That would mean Ralph would still have to pay him, and bring in another #3 quarterback and pay him. Too much $$ for Tight A## Ralph.
nero47 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 You can't. You'd be down to one QB, Hamdan. The proper thing to do is sit him down for the last two games and play Hamdan. Completely agree. The season is over except for playing the final two games. However if TE is healthy play him for at least two quarters of each game to restore his confidence, don't wait til next season.
Albany,n.y. Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 No need to cut him, just announce Hamdan is starting Sunday in Denver. Who do we get to replace JP at this point in the season, the original JP-Joey Harrington?
IDBillzFan Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Do we cut Peters, too, for whiffing on the play, of just Losman?

However if TE is healthy play him for at least two quarters of each game to restore his confidence, don't wait til next season. Edwards won't play another down this season. If he can't go against Denver they're not going to put him in against NE* in the Ralph. If they're worried about his fragile psyche then putting a soft, low confidence young QB who hasn't played well in the cold and hasn't played in four + games would be malpractice. Plus, no way they put that kid in in the last game against a team that will crush his confidence and possibly his fragile body. Let Losman get the boos and the beat-down. He won't be in WNY next season.
Nervous Guy Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Do we cut Peters, too, for whiffing on the play, of just Losman? you do know that Peters has a track record of actually playing well, I think he might have gone to the probowl...night and day compared to Losman.
Gary M Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 LABillz.... That's ignorant Why? He may not be very good but at least JP was trying on that play. The Bills had the game in hand and because Jason Peters decided to take the play off the Jets won. Your play makers should play every down, not just when they feel like it.

IDBillzFan Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 you do know that Peters has a track record of actually playing well, I think he might have gone to the probowl...night and day compared to Losman. You do know that if Peters didn't take the play off, then no one is chasing down the quarterback on that play, right? Look, I'm not defending Losman. He !@#$ed up. You have to protect the ball. But other than Ramius, I haven't seen anyone go after Peters, who missed his assignment...AGAIN. How many fumbles did Edwards have this year because Peters missed an assignment? Exactly. While thrashing Losman over and over and over is clearly masturbatory glee for many, it doesn't mean Peters is perfect. He's not. He is equally responsible for the result of that play, as he has been when Edwards was getting his clock cleaned on multiple occasions this year. And for what it's worth, the minute Vince Young was named a starting quarterback in the Pro Bowl was the minute the Pro Bowl was shown for what it really is; a sham of a popularity contest. If I were an NFL owner, I'd try to re-negotiate every contract that has a Pro Bowl incentive clause in it.

The problem is like it or not Peters is one of the top 10 tackles in the entire league & JP Losman is probably one of the 2 or 3 worst qbs in the entire league. You have a little more patience & tolerance for your superstars & less patience for your scrubs like Losman. If you do not understand that you really do not understand how the world of sports operates.

Years of very good performance vs years of dismal/declining performance, I'm willing to cut Peters a bit more slack.
All_Pro_Bills Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Why? He may not be very good but at least JP was trying on that play. The Bills had the game in hand and because Jason Peters decided to take the play off the Jets won. Your play makers should play every down, not just when they feel like it. If I was Juron I would definitely sit Losman. The coaching staff and JP both know he's not going to be here next year. But the coaching staff gave him the opportunity to play and sell himself to the rest of the league as a viable free agent option. Yes, I hated the play call and thought it was stupid when your running game was destroying the Jets defense but Losman had two options on that play. 1) pass to the FB, 2) if that wasn't there, throw the ball away. Instead, he decided to improvise, holding the ball and then coughing it up. He just had to follow his orders, so don't think, just do! Winning that game could have generated some interest in him but he blew it by pulling his cowboy stunt and I can't see any reason why some other team would want to consider him as a viable QB option (1,2, or 3). Play Hamdan. Its no secret Losman is not going to be here next year and it will give us a look at the 3rd QB. Plus give us diehard fans a reason to watch which I for one won't be doing if he's under center against Denver.
Sisyphean Bills Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 Do we cut Peters, too, for whiffing on the play, of just Losman? Cut the entire offense. Why not?

I guess expecting your *star* player to step up and make a play when the game is on the line is too much to ask.
Flbillsfan#1 Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 you do know that Peters has a track record of actually playing well, I think he might have gone to the probowl...night and day compared to Losman. Peters has not played well all year. He SUCKED for at least 1/2 the season & then improved his play to average. He will not go to the Pro Bowl this year.

If you do not understand that you really do not understand how the world of sports operates. If Peters is a top 10 tackle in this league, he DOESN'T whiff on that play. BUt I guess "kind of good" is good enough as long as it's not Losman. It's funny. If that play doesn't get called, or if Peters makes his block, or if Losman doesn't fumble the ball, there's a very good chance we win that game, which is particularly interesting given that we were down 14-3 and actually came back to take the lead not once, but TWICE. It was a spirited effort by the offense up to that point. But we lost, and we lost not because a good player screwed up, but because a bad player screwed up. Got it.
