Six games into last season, Trent Edwards was headed to the Pro Bowl. He'd guided the Buffalo Bills to a 5-1 record. Fans were thinking division title, especially with Tom Brady gone for the year. By the end of the season, however, Edwards was getting outplayed by Brady's backup.

This will be a critical year for the injury-prone Edwards. The Bills desperately want him to be their franchise quarterback and have surrounded him with enough weapons to make many of his peers envious.

Now it's time for him to prove he's the man to handle the job for the long term.

Edwards isn't the sure thing everybody thought he was evolving into early last season, but the stage is set for him to show what he can do.

While there are other hot-seat candidates in the AFC East -- New England Patriots running back Laurence Maroney immediately comes to mind -- Edwards and the Bills form a prime example of a player and a team together at a crossroads.

I think one thing they did not talk about is one of the new weapons is TO. He is going to be under a lot of pressure just dealing with him. Even if Edwards and TO get along fine, and I think they will, he will still be asked about it all the time.
