We haven't really had a spark the last few weeks, and sometimes the best thing to do is move the pieces around a little bit.
”-- Bills QB Ryan FitzpatrickAfter two weeks of uninspiring football, Chan Gailey and the Buffalo Bills have made a change at QB.
- The Bills managed 166 yards of total offense against their AFC East rival Miami Dolphins in week 1.
- The Bills followed that impressive performance with a whopping 186 yards of total offense against the Green Bay Packers last Sunday.
In Edwards' first two games, he went a combined 29-42 for 241 yards passing, managing only one touchdown to his two interceptions.
Fitzpatrick, a Harvard grad, will now be asked to inject some life into this anemic Buffalo Bills offense.
At this point, some semblance of an offense will excite the fan-base. Consistency on the offensive side of the ball has been lacking for almost a decade, and the fans deserve better.
Is Fitzpatrick the answer, probably not. His numbers last year indicate he too is not fit to start in the NFL. But it's either Fitzpatrick (mediocrity) or Brian Brohm (the unknown).
Unfortunately, the Bills have a stable of three NFL backups all vying for the starting job. And Edwards is truly making a case for not even being that, a serviceable backup.
