Tank the Rest of the Season WTF is the point No reason to tank when you play like dogshit…..try and continue to fail 🤣….. If DJ is healthy start him….if neither him nor Glennon are healthy then play Fromm….wish I could say it gives them a chance to evaluate him for the future…..but DJ has been the starting QB for 3 years and they still haven’t been able to truly evaluate him because the O-line is horrid. |

Have to remember in his last year he had virtually no weapons and was a game manager for Georgia because of this Rooting for him because now Jones long term health is kinda in question now I'm rooting for him because he's a Giant now. It just makes sense to go in his direction if DJ can't play. Perhaps he makes sense to be in the mix for the future but him sitting on the bench just because Glennon is there makes no sense. Glennon is not the future--not even as a back up.Agreed and while we are at it the same holds true for Solder and Peart. Peart may stink but he stinks and he's young. That has to count for something. |

Peart clearly was a big "FAIL" as a draft pick--especially when the O line was to be fortified by "Hog Mollies". It truly is an indictment of the GM and the talent evaluators when Booker is the best FA signing they made for the offense. |

Don't dismiss Fromm because of that. The Bills used a 3rd round pick on him because according to Beane they had him higher on their board than that. The Bills had already signed Trubisky to a 1 yr deal to be a back up. After losing in the AFC Championship game they wanted a back up who could run the same plays Allen can run including the designed runs. I'm thinking they planned on Fromm as a future back up or to develop him and trade him later. There just wasn't enough camp time for Fromm to even come close to catching up on Dabols offense especially with the Covid protocols keeping QBs separate. Yes, I'm concerned that the line won't give him a chance and most certainly the playbook will be cut down, but even if Glennon was healthy I can't stomach him again. Fromm has a chance to be decent eventually..... Naturally accurate,though kinda a noodle arm supposedly. He was legit as a freshman in Ga,remember he outdueled Mayfield in that epic Rose Bowl. I'd rather him than Glennon from here on in... The scouting report I read is he might not have enough juice on the fastball to get the squeeze the ball in on tight window throws at the NFL level and he is not that mobile. |

There is a reason the Bills never elevated him to the #2. That's because Davis Webb is #2. |

Fromm is going to be shellshocked after the cowboys game. I think Fromm can be a decent backup, but don't hold your breath Fromm will not be the savior. In fact he's probably going to struggle with the a limited playbook a leaky oline considering he's an old school pocket passer, he's not running.

how much worse can it possibly get with Fromm? Give him a try, maybe we catch lightening in a bottle? You talking about high potent alcohol ? |

There is a reason the Bills never elevated him to the #2. That's because Davis Webb is #2. Mitch Trubisky is #2 for the Bills. Webb is on their practice squad. |

Good. We should be spending our remaining weeks evaluating talent on this team. There seems to be a short supply of it.

I'd rather him than Glennon from here on in... Yeah at least there is a possible upside. Accuracy today even on short routes would have definitely extended drives and resulted in a win. Just think, if he even looks at more than one receiver than our hypothetical odds of completing a pass go up 100%. |

Nah, seen enough, he sucks. We need a new QB. I get it and to each their own.....his record is what it is......my personal opinion is regardless of who would have been behind the line this year they would see very similar poor results.....yesterday was a case study of that. |

Trubisky has won close to 60% of his NFL starts and is getting millions to ride pine. He is definitely tbeir #2 QB. How could Fromm have a chance behind those 2 over there.
