I disagree and think it would be a grave mistake. Maybe I'm placing too much value on his having been a high pick, and if he were a 2nd or 3rd rounder, that possibility wouldn't look as grim, but I still see talent there. I'd go so far as to say that cutting any offensive player who showed anything positive under Marrone, then regressed, would be a big mistake. I believe that little in what Doug and Hackett were doing on offense. Also, cutting EJ to sign his more frequently injured doppleganger, who has a more extended record of failure -- that would be the height of lunacy.

The all Sam Bradford thread

"The _______ Experiment" is as tired of a phrase as "Kool-Aid drinkers." -
The university's show proceedings don't count. He was never found not guilty by the law. No charges were pressed after an 11-month lag, by a police department that is clearly in the back pocket of FSU. The "2 different guys" included Winston and her boyfriend, by the way. I know, real salacious. The fact is that there was evidence of an encounter, he admits to one, and there should be a legal proceeding to determine whose version is true, the accuser's or Winston;s. Share the tweets, please. The accuser is still out there claiming her version, even releasing a documentary on the subject. The Bogdanovich article pretty clearly lays out that the way this was handled was abhorrent.

biscuit, you know you and I both would like to see the team not give up on EJ yet, so I'm generally in agreement with you on things. but you're making some blanket statements here. Good QB's come in all shapes and sizes, and attitudes to boot. Brady is a douche. Montana was a douche. You would love for your QB to be the most liked player on the team. But he really needs to be the most respected player on the team. Personally, I can't and won't ever respect a rapist. Just about all the (journalistic) evidence I have seen on this case suggests that Winston is one and he's pretty shameless about it. you've probably got to have an unreal amount of confidence and belief in yourself to be a successful NFL quarterback. So worried about that. More worried if this is a guy who thinks he's going to arrive and take the NFL by storm, the way manziel did. talent is all well and good, but there is no substitute for the work. And there is always someone who is going to work harder than you in the NFL.

Hey wait, I sense a winning strategy here. -

I'd trade for him for a conditional 2016 2nd rounder that could turn into a first of the bills make the playoffs. -
EJ vs Derek Carr - perception
RuntheDamnBall replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
To not "Ignore his on-field production" is not equivalent to making it a hostile place for your own players in the manner that the poster was describing. Criticism is welcome. Crusading about it, booing your own guys, making gutless statements on Twitter that you'd never make to his face, that's all bush league. I abhor that stuff in any fan, especially one that roots for the same team as me. -
SF FA guard Mike Iupati (update: going to Cardinals)
RuntheDamnBall replied to CJPearl2's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
see, i believe that several other teams are going to explore Boling as the value option and inflate his price. I'd rather just pay for the elite player. -
Bills to go in little-talked-about direction at QB?
RuntheDamnBall replied to Rubes's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
he's an upgrade in half the games and he will singlehandedly lose you the other half. Pass. -
Dareus car race trial set for May 19
RuntheDamnBall replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
If it can be proven that he won the drag race, can he get the charges reduced to style points? Also, if there any chance that the other driver was an Asian man with a Howard Cosell voice, that should be grounds for dismissal. -
Forgive me for expecting a bit more of our veteran QB who "gives us the best chance at winning" and the playoffs, than from a rookie.

I stand corrected, though he was an alternate who got in after Marshall Yanda pulled out. And Kelly was a notorious partier and douche. But he did not find himself consistently in the kind of trouble that R.I. has. If you want to argue that this is a product of our hyper-driven media age, I guess you'd be half-right, but this stuff has been going on since he was less under the microscope in Nebraska. Again, hoping it works out, but I'm not obligated to think it's a great idea just because the Bills have been trotting out near-corpse-level play at OG.

His history of being a hothead !@#$ has defined him at just about every step of the way. What's the definition of insanity, again? People here are acting like this dude has even one Pro Bowl under his belt. He doesn't. People are getting way too excited about a serviceable guard a year removed from the league. I trust that this isn't plan A even though it will get the most press. If it is plan A, I feel no more excited about it than I would Kujo competing for the job. I can see why he has a fan base with the Flat Earth Society, but let's see him play a down as a Bill before parading around shirtless in the club celebrating this one.

Including the golf event thing? Wow. Yeah, man up and treat women like objects at public team functions. You've got to be kidding me. I'd rather live in a "pussified" world with women who know their value and are treated like human beings than one ruled by petulant children like Incognito who are serviceable at playing a goddamn game.
