What have the bills done by signing Vince Young have they opened up a quarterback controversy one waiting to happen have they merely. Given themselves a better back up. More insurance in case -- Patrick is injured or something. In between I don't like it. Because I think it's more trouble than it's worth I think gave Lee and Fitzpatrick will be peppered with questions at every opportunity. About Vince young and because this is how the sports world works and because Fitzpatrick has a lot left to prove. Without even meaning any trouble. Content report as a be asking questions that'll sound like they're trying to stir something up Vince Young has the opposite record as a starter. Of Fitzpatrick yet Fitzpatrick is the starter and they're building a nice looking team around him. So. I don't see the bills getting the reward. Out of this move. That. Met that measures up with the sort of -- that headaches will get from it. And dialogue it. Because I want them to be as good as they can be and I don't want their season it'll open flames just because something happens that the -- corporate Patrick is still the quarterback he was on the stretch. And right now. But Vince Young said if you buy it put money on it he'd probably stinks but I'm not sure I'm still. I am still. Attracted to the talent. And as far as backup quarterbacks available in the middle Maine I probably could've done better so I'm not convinced he has to be terrible. So if -- the play and he rediscovers. The -- that made in the third pick in the draft I'd love to be involved. That's why this is interesting because I wouldn't have done it and you what does yet I tend to think he's probably better than you think. Now right so I I like him more than you do but I wouldn't have made the move a -- -- -- The better than Tebow. -- things very much looked at Tebow character. Same background college national title. Not a good quarterback but he is exciting and wins games I think he's. We have better -- his his completion percentages is you know it's not great. But it's a lot higher than TDs. To me got more. Traditional cornerback Adam and team yeah. And when he came here. I don't know what what year was who became your poison thing and always played and -- beat them twice and I like the wait for the football I mean. He could pass. And then some things happen to one maybe he just needs to grow up means that a difficult background a usual weird guy I mean he's supposedly depressed he gets. Disappears for a few days -- uniforms. Stop into the stands -- communities like of these like a child their -- those here's some of the quotes he's on sixty minutes analyst bravado he just. It is to back it up and be needed to grow up in will be one of these guys who -- late and there will wanted to gamble on that but again I don't wanna get gamble the first supposedly winning season in bills history on this guy you think. He could insure that it is the first weekend. I do well for years so we're gonna have some -- I think he's better than they've been and he's better than Rex Grossman but idol I had -- sign up for a guy who I'm sure can't be great. This thing about young is I'm not sure he -- degree. It is it's it's it might it might be a long shot but it still with with how hard it is the fine. Good quarterbacks. Along great ones. I mean I need and a platform at some point and one is happening. You know they they've they've they've been as high as they could be in the draft and the ones they -- got Cam Newton they -- for the three last year of course but. They've passed on guys that they didn't like I don't -- win it's gonna come up on the wheel for that depict young -- developed. This is a -- to me is worth it in the tires on and I like the coach and the quarterback for this year right they will be peppered with questions. And I wasn't impressed with how Gailey and -- -- hand but on Friday I thought they were already. On edge and it's may you know like -- maybe not agreed side but. Fitzpatrick says his support of his coaches the support of those teammates. As of now and I think -- Packers a Smart enough and strong enough competent guy he can handle. I don't think he's gonna come undone because Vince Young. Here but if he's that over the first several weeks. Even the guys in locker room might start moderate -- to happen with floating two weeks his arm went and he was -- that Don that was divided locker room. The one thing was they went in and then they. They were good in including one of some games Clinton. You could argue that they could be a winning team and this could still be a problem. Because you saw what have a floating what do they -- five with him there. Really good playoff team but. People think he's not good enough and then they'd go to the other guy what do -- has that kind of year where his numbers are good in his arm doesn't but there winning games. It's going to be interesting it could be a lot of and then this -- is sitting there. Being so long since we've had a winning football league ended in December winning football team if they're putting wins up. I don't I don't think it matters if it's just crumble under. If they're winning games I mean that's overstating it but I just I can't see Fitzpatrick this. This early on being is vulnerable. To that I think is because. In 9899. The bills we still a couple of great like -- -- they're just great. Right now as usual when six you win games we've Flutie was when he games in 19901999. But Patrick the. Is. Not well he's lost eight of his last nine starts. Again two weeks. I think if there and if he's not excellent in one of those two games are a thorough into some well no matter what it looks like. Against the jets -- -- And and they've lost 25 times in a row. And he's a few of those. And Kansas City which we probably are thinking is a bad team but as as a few really good players you know they had some injuries last year -- -- Outplay guys and although there was a focus on. Is posted at a contentious now or Tebow. He's posted better than Miami quarterbacks and he's posted better than really castle. In good group would NFC west who is he better than us posted better than over there he's not gonna face a lot of great quarterbacks next year. So -- it shouldn't be and who were. Some of these last year like one how come Manhattan -- -- I'll play and Sanchez to that's that's going to be there album and you know me well I'll be there. You know. Putting his stats together for a stretch of games extending -- this coming season that's of but I doomed from supposed to do them. And then if you start cotton in the win games will be -- he's he's the guy and you know get more -- but I don't. Blame people for saying hey look. He's not good enough. Jerry Silva here until six the lines are open 8030550. -- dale hunter quit as coach of the Washington Capitals. What was that. He decided apparently to go back to coaching in the Ontario league London. Where what he has. His brother's. They'll all the team or something called the family business I think the they only he owns a stake a home they don't -- -- good forum any. Conclusions. You wanna draw as it seems just about everybody watching these playoffs. Does about. Why it's going the way it's going whether it favors underdogs -- goalies or who will be -- thinking watching these games if you are watching them. I'm I think goalies have a lot to do that you look at look at LA for one when both -- that series that. I was a few guys earlier I think their teams have their time in it. Went -- it all comes together under coach and they give that little extra in in that helps them. To win series. And it in an earlier you're making it out to be like all -- one goal games and elect its lock ice ice and I'm just not ready to go there. And and in terms of did the big picture with the Buffalo Sabres is that they. Haven't done that. And that it's not -- that you you in the coach is a problem here. Because he hasn't. Got his team in the right position. Often enough to to do this and that starts with the general -- saw -- get put bring it back to them so. I just see certain things and I agree with the with the with -- that the Rangers. Under to order -- this year seem to have that that extra quality. I've seen -- lacking too often in the Buffalo Sabres. And I wanna vote on the road of revisiting things but there's. Their they're not coincidences to me when teams make these runs in -- in the Stanley Cup. I've seen it lacking plenty of times in the Washington Capitals in the last few years and that's without even watching them all the time but I guess it was a lacking. In the last two rounds. Which they the you know beat Boston. And then almost beat New York. With a rookie goaltender with a rookie goaltender. Whatever it Alter and a cold true maybe wasn't thinking about doing the job long term which is why he was willing to banter about it and just do it out to do I'll do it. Whenever messed this makes is not gonna be mind -- -- -- it is I'm on the home that the wondered here's my my franchise it is. He -- you know -- important member of all of the capitals story so laden. He was suspended know -- was yet he was on the capital's mean -- when he felt their job. What a beautiful legacies -- but they were at -- they need that guy he came to the rescue. And that is good work in -- -- own a home. -- -- A point about Manchester City soccer for talking about earlier. That -- may be from hockey that may be works for it. Here's Manchester City. That dramatic comeback yesterday a team that had won it's league in more than forty years. Forty years in the current number of mentioned the sabres -- quite the same as close I think. -- the sabres making it to game seven. Of the Stanley Cup finals next year. Like Manchester City they have recently been bought by a very wealthy person. And that in money's being poured in just like that team. Say they get to game seven of the finals at home next year and with a minute and a half ago. Or losing by a goal and they take a penalty. I'm not sure you're leaving like you would be in a game in November. When this happened. But that's -- -- it is I think odds wise that's about -- that you know what they did yesterday might -- have been tougher than that. Two goals and injury time to win with -- needed to. And the sabres when the game. Even may be in regulation. Despite that to win the Stanley Cup that is what we're talking about that's.
