Breaking News! Jaguars Sign Former Bill

With the UFL apparently not coming to fruition in this struggling economy and the Jaguars desperately needing a quarterback to fill in for the injured David Garrard, the Jaguars have signed quarterback J.P. Losman.

Here's the kicker.

Garrard is only expected to miss 1 game, this week's matchup against the Bills.

J.P. Losman is a former 1st round pick of the Bills.

Though wanting to be traded, Losman continued playing for the Bills in 2008. Losman played in place of an injured Trent Edwards intermittently throughout the season with limited success. The team did not win a game with Losman, even a game he fumbled away that appeared to be a win, against the Jets.

Losman's contract expired at the end of the 2008 season and the Bills made no effort to keep him, instead replacing him with Ryan Fitzpatrick, who is slated to start in this week's matchup against the Jaguars as well.

Perhaps the Jaguars have signed Losman with the assumption he has something to prove to his former team and can possibly scrape out a win for them in the week Garrard is forced to nurse an injury,

Either way, this should provide some interesting drama to follow this Sunday.

Could be. He's keeping the role for the time being. :marshmellow: 300 yards, 3td's and no picks. I can live with that.

oh fuck J.P. raped you, rofl, Fitzy was good for once tho

rofl, I tend to play very aggressively on defense. Especially against the pass. I'm either going for the pick or looking to lay a guy the fuck out as soon as he comes down with the ball.

As you can see, sometimes that doesn't work out all that well and they can break for huge gains after the catch. :devil:

It's all good. J.P. got his. If you look at the last play in the highlight reel, he heaved one. Mckelvin picked it off and on his way back up field, I spun JP out of his fuckin shoes rofl. Then did some crazy dive into the end zone to seal the deal. It's worth a watch!

Or so I thought, they threatened once again. Luckily I recovered their onside kick.

Week 12 Preview
Sunday, November 29, 1:00 PM @ Ralph Wilson Stadium

(8-2)

vs

(6-4)

Coming into the playoff stretch now, the Bills have won their last 5 games but still trail the 9-1 division leading Patriots.

The Bills host the division rival Dolphins in week 12 and while temperatures may be close to freezing (36 degrees forecasted), the competition will be red-hot.

The Dolphins are in a must-win situation to keep their playoff hopes alive.

Ronnie Brown was shut down in these two teams first meeting earlier this year at Landshark Stadium, allowing the Bills to claim a 33-28 victory.

The Bills defense was nothing short of horrible a week ago, surrending 48 points to the Jaguars though and is an issue of concern coming into this matchup.

Will the Bills be able to keep up if this Dolphins offense starts lighting up the scoreboard?

God I fucking hate facing the dolphins. Fuck ronnie brown omfg FUCK

 

[LC AAU]

Mike can you PM me your sliders, I haven't found success with the 2 sets I've tried for my Texans chise.

 

[mfbmike]

lol, I haven't found a realistic set yet either unfortunately. Once I think I found a good set, I end up returning 2 picks in for td's or getting burned for 300+ passing yards by JP Losman. :irked: rofl

 

[Flight24]

WHOA HIGH SCORING GAME.

 

[LC AAU]

Damn, alright. I've played my first game like 3 times already issed:

 

[mfbmike]

Damn, alright. I've played my first game like 3 times already issed:

It's like this.

You look back at those games I beat the Titans and the others by 18-20 points or so. Realistic stats for sure, but too easy.

However, to make the game challenging, I have to bump up difficulty/sliders and only seem to have high scoring games. Never defensive battles. lol.

Gotta find that sweet spot between realistic stats/challenging enough for me and it to be interesting. lol.

 

[Lumpkin]

Wow JP almost had his revenge. To bad he is probably going right back to the bench

Underneath It All, Lynch Is Breaking Out

Marshawn Lynch Career Stats
[table="head;autonumtitle=rank;width=30em"]Year|Games|Carries|Yards|YPC|TD|Long
2007-08|13|280|1115|4.0|7|30

2009-10|10|258|1052|4.1|9|95[/table]

Buffalo Bills running back Marshawn Lynch eclipsed the 1,000 yard rushing mark for the 3rd consecutive year of his career in the NFL after a 78 yard touchdown run late in the 4th quarter of the Bills thrilling 51-48 win against the Jaguars last week.

Behind all the media hoopla surrounding Terrell Owens in Buffalo and the current quarterback dilemna, Marshawn Lynch is quietly having a breakout year.

Lynch is still the workhorse in Buffalo and will likely play a full 16 game season if he can stay healthy (and out of trouble) and possibly surpass the 300 touch mark. Why? He alone among Bills backs has shown the ability to break a game open based on skill alone.

Any player touching the ball roughly 300 times per season is an important part to any team's offense. What increases Lynch's value to the team is his nose for the end zone; the third-year running back has scored 24 touchdowns in his first three seasons. 9 this year alone, which exceeds the 7 and 8 he scored in his 1st 2 seasons respectively.

Simply put, Marshawn is our finisher.

That's Lynch's job, and with the shiny new additions to the Bills offense this past offseason, Lynch has done and will do a lot more finishing in 2009-10.

Coming into this season, it seemed like there was untapped potential with Lynch. and it was essential that the Bills find a way to tap into that unexplored talent, as Lynch is by far the most talented back on the roster, and is the lone home run threat among the group.

On an offense that has appeared starved for playmakers in a number of games this year, Lynch has stood alone as the one player that can be relied upon on a week-to-week basis.

He's always been a workhorse, but Buffalo has seen him transform into a game breaker.​

 

[Lupe]

The crackhead is kicking ass brah

 

[mfbmike]

Not a lot of Marshawn Lynch fans on here huh?

:shifty:

 

[DoubleDeuce]

Lynch is working for you. Is he leading the NFL in yards?
