Edwards decision sounds permanent
Dick Jauron quietly seemed to adjust Trent Edwards' status as the team's starting quarterback from temporary to permanent this week. The Buffalo News calls it a foregone conclusion.
I watched the Bills game against the Ravens and mostly agree with FootballOutsiders' gushing about the kid. When he makes a mistake, it tends to be a massive one. But otherwise his mastery of the two-minute offense and good decision-making is impressive. He also stretched the field in this game.
Don't forget for a second how hard it is to be a rookie quarterback. Even Tom Brady was very limited in his first season as a starter, and that was his second year. Payton Manning had a 6.5 YPA and a negative TD:INT ratio. Eli Manning and Alex Smith could barely walk and talk at the same time.
Edwards may or may not be much better than J.P. Losman right now, but he definitely will be next year.
