Trent Edwards returned to the starting lineup today againts the Washington Redskins.  Eventhough he looked rusty, and out of sync, he proved today why he will be the next Buffal Bills franchise quarterback for a longtime to come.

In only his fourth start, and fifth game he played in, Edwards has already thrown for over 200 yards passing, and has lead a fourth quarter comeback.  Something that JP Losman did not accomplish until last year, which was his third season.

Edwards is football savvy, and has the inteligence of a rocket scientist when it comes to football.  Already the coaching staff has entrusted him with audibles, and he is only a rookie.

Coach Cattolico was right about Edawrds arm, it is very stong and deadly accurate.  With less than a minute left, and the defense in prevent mode Edwards completed a pass to Josh Reed. 

Edwards knew that he would have a small window between the deep saftey, and the linebacker dropping back into coverage.  Still with that in mind he completed a pass right on the money to Josh Reed.

The drive brought back memories of the gory days.  The late comebacks by both Jim Kelly and backup quarterback Frank Reich.

The odds were stacked against Edwards.  The death of Sean Taylor, a road game, outstanding coaches, and bad weather.  However, he proved why his time at Los Gatos highschool was invaluable as he beleived in himself and his team, and found a way to win.

Only great quarterbacks and geat players find ways to win when they are not looking that great.  Finally, the Bills have one at the quarteback position.
