Brian Brohm In, Trent Edwards On The Way Out Of Buffalo

It was reported today that when QB Brian Brohm was signed off the Packers Practice Squad, he signed a 2 year contract. This looks like "Brian Brohm is in, Trent Edwards on the way out of Buffalo".

The Bills have benched QB Trent Edwards, in favor of Ryan Fitzpatrick (I don't think he's even a short term answer at QB), and Edwards isn't taking it well. He's refusing to talk to reporters about his demotion, and may be on the fast track out of town.

If Edwards is on his way out of Buffalo, he might be the type of QB John Fox likes.

I like Trent Edwards and I wanted us to draft him when he came out. I don't think he is the problem in Buffalo, but I don't care what John Fox likes, I want him gone.

I would welcome Trent Edwards as the Panthers QB because he's smart and is a good decision maker.He's also accurate,completing 65.5 percent of his passes last season.

My only concern would be his durability,but at 6'4" 231 lbs he should be ok with the decent OL of the Panthers.

Trent Edwards was a 3rd round pick by Buffalo in 2007,so he has some experienmce and would probably excel if he could get out of the circus they call a football team in Buffalo

If he's so good, why would the Bills even consider letting him get away? The Bills were touted as playoff contenders by some before this season started. They looked good against NE until the final 2 minutes in their season opener. Maybe a new address will be good for him, but is that address in Charlotte? Given how Jake hasn't really progressed a whole lot in his mechanics since he's been here, it's fair to ask if we have anyone at present who can properly develop a young QB? I'd look at him before I'd look at, say, Brady Quinn, but as I said, if he is considered to have such great potential, why would they let him go?

If I was to take a chance on a young QB already on a roster, I might take a look at those who back up Brady and Peyton Manning. Those teams have special QBs, and it's no acccident, they obviously know how to get the most out of them, and developed them properly. Maybe someone who has been there and around those 2 guys and their coaching staffs will have enough in the way of established fundamentals that they are worth a look. It's no less a gamble than drafting a QB, or signing a FA, if our team feels that we need a new QB!

I love all these threads where people offer up QB ideas and they're all garbage: Edwards, Campbell, Thigepen, Pat White, Quinn, etc. Why don't we set our goals a tad bit higher? And no, don't ask me how we could get a QB like that. It just depresses me to think McCown, Trent Edwards, or freakin' Brady Quinn is the future of this team.

i don't care if he is or isn't better than jake. if he is, it's like people saying don't be upset about the direction the panthers are going because at least they aren't the bills or the browns or the raiders.....

      Down With The Devils: Series Wrap-up

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
