Head coach Chan Gailey does not envision Jackson challenging backup QB Tyler Thigpen. "It would be very tough for Tarvaris to challenge for that spot this year because of limited reps (in practice)," Gailey said. "Fitz takes almost every rep we have on offense during the course of the week. The backup gets very few reps through the course of practice.

"(It) did not happen last week," Gailey said of the playing time. "Tyler got 19 and Vince got 30. We would like to stay at 20 and 20 if we can. With (Fitzpatrick) getting 20, you like to think a game is 60-something plays. Tyler may end up with a few more this week."

"They both have not done anything to distance themselves from the other," Gailey said. "Both - some things are good one day and some things are bad one day. We just have to keep letting them play. They've got to get a feel of the speed of the game with pads, feeling the pass rush around them, doing the little things they do best." Young has had trouble getting comfortable with the offense and Thigpen has not shown the accuracy the team wants from his passing.
Tue, 31 Jul 2012 19:52:42 -0700 Buffalo Bills head coach Chan Gailey said Tuesday, July 31, that neither QB Vince Young, nor QB Tyler Thigpen, is distancing himself in the race for the No. 2 quarterback job behind starter QB Ryan Fitzpatrick.

"I think it's going to be a good competition," Gailey said. "Tyler has the advantage of being here and being in the system. Vince has the advantage of playing in games and the experience. Vince has more experience than Tyler. Tyler has more experience in this offense than Vince. So there's a trade-off there. It depends on who ends up doing the best job during the course of the entire preseason."

Thu, 21 Jun 2012 16:08:40 -0700 Buffalo Bills head coach Chan Gailey said QB Vince Young is having trouble picking up the nuances of the offense because Gailey has added things to the playbook each of the last two seasons. "It would not have been as hard two years ago, but we are in so much more of an advanced stage now than we were two years ago. He is trying to learn what the base concepts are and how we have advanced to where we are today without the benefit of going through the baby steps," Gailey said. Gainey indicated QB Tyler Thigpen may have an advantage over Young because of he has been in the offense longer.
Thu, 21 Jun 2012 06:34:03 -0700 Buffalo Bills QB Ryan Fitzpatrick's job as the team's starting quarterback appears safe as QBs Vince Young and Tyler Thigpen have struggled in offseason practices.
