Kevin Kolb, Buffalo Bill

Oh, those poor poor bastiches.  Kolb>Fitzwhatever ?  Really?

[Rome]

Fitzpatrick was suffering from borderline PTSD he was hit so much in Buffalo. 

Christ - I guess Kolb needs the money because there's no way he should have signed there otherwise.

[Diomedes]

I think the only qb who got hit more was Kolb.   And Kolb has more concussion history thank Fitz too.  What are they thinking?

[Rome]

They're probably thinking, "damn, I wish we could move to Toronto."  Or, "holy shtein it's cold as a motherfarger up here."

[SD]

I think Kolb can be a decent qb in the right offense with a good o line. Like if you had a team with everything and was just missing a qb he could come in and be a Brad Johnson type. Most teams build from the qb out so that scenario will never play out. My bet is he's out of the league in under 3 seasons because of concussion issues.

What are they thinking?

I think it means they plan on going QB with their #1 pick and want a cheap veteran for a back up or to start a few games in case the rook isn't ready.  Either that or they're doing everything they can to get the #1 pick in 2014. 

[Rome]

Yep.  Kolb is a bridge and Buffalo is drafting Geno Smith.  Book it.

[QB Eagles]

I think it means they plan on going QB with their #1 pick and want a cheap veteran for a back up or to start a few games in case the rook isn't ready.  Either that or they're doing everything they can to get the #1 pick in 2014. 

They are paying him low-end starter-type money. He's probably the favorite to start. I would guess that they will draft a QB also, and develop him on the bench while Kolb and/or Tavaris Jackson is out there getting all the CTE.

From what I've seen, Fitzpatrick is a bit better than Kolb. Guess they were just sick of seeing his face. [Kolb comes cheaper than what they were paying Fitz, too.]

[Rome]

Fitzpatrick sucks.  I watched far more than I ever wanted to of the Bills the last couple of years (having a lot of Buffalo friends as I do) and trust me, he had to go.  They paid him a fortune and he just quit on them.  Not that I blame him, though, because their offensive line was worse than the Eagles' and they routinely allowed Fitz to get the shtein beat out of him.  It's a shame because he does have talent, but then again, so does Kolb.  That's why I find it difficult to believe that Kolb is going to subject himself to that mess.  Why not find a good team (Green Bay, San Fran maybe?) with a great starter to back up?

That's my guess as well. And if they draft a QB and he takes over the starting role this year, it's not like they've got a shtein ton of money rotting on the bench.

It's irrelevant who is better. They were obviously sick of him and just wanted someone new...like most of us did with Reid. Almost doesn't matter if Kelly wins a single game or not. He's not Reid and most fans are happy about that.  I think the same concept applies to the Bills FO and Fitzpatrick.
