Do I really have to? Orton isn't a good starter. This is well documented over a ten year period. He is exactly 500 as a starter. He makes some great throws but holds the ball too long at times and showed some horrible pocket awareness on Sunday. His two INTs this year are inexcusable as a ten year vet. Stared down the corner and threw it right to him? Cmon man. Shaking off the rust is not excuse. He has been throwing a football for at least 25 years, 14 of which were at a major level college program or the pros. There are plenty of things to like about Orton. He's a tough guy and makes some great throws at times. He seems to have the respect of his peers which is all well and good but at the end of the day, he is mediocre starter. Guys like Brady, Manning ect (You know, playoff QBs) are going to out duel this guy every time. You would think after Watching Fitz for almost 4 years, Bills fans would know we have a below avg starter, again. He is our best option right now and I will not dispute that. But at the end of the day, can anyone really honestly say you are happy with Kyle Orton being your starting QB?

I dont disagree he is our best option. Doesn't make him a viable starter I think the only QBs I would have Orton over are as follows Geno Austin Davis (Though he might be good in a few years) Glennon/McCown Bortles (again right now) Fitz Locker/Whitehurst Cousins That puts him at 24th starter. Thats bad folks.

I wouldn't even know what that means. Additional writings? Does he want a writing sample?

Which is why everyone should be mad. If the NFL is calling games that way, then whats the point of watching?

You have low expectations my friend. I think we have two bad QBs.

That was an awful call. The over officiating needs to stop. Truly ruining the game

Does anyone actually think Orton is good?

"I was thinking I'll use this weeks check on a new couch, maybe an end table, I'm not sure yet, have to talk it over with my wife."

It isn't that the Bills lost. Its how they lost. This team talks like they are a playoff team and when the two biggest challenges have come to the Ralph, the entire team wilted, tucked their tales between their legs and slunk away. This was such a key game to the season. The Pats come to town, dominated us for 15 years and we have the talent to beat them and they just got handled. I'm usually the most positive Bills fan, but this team isn't ready for primetime. They went all in and are failing. I see us at 7-5 at Best going to Denver, GB, Oak, and NE Looks like 8-8 to me. Hardly an improvement.

Thats how everyone tackles Gronk. Those guys don't know anything

You know he works for the Bills right?

The rest of the staff is very experienced. I can't fathom why they gave the offense to hackett. Really losing faith in him

If Orton starts next year we are in big trouble

Last season in Madden

Lonnie Johnson was awful again

Yeah he wanted to compete. Thats why he signed as soon as camp was over He pulled a Farve without the talent and is now schooling us for 11 million

LaCanfora, which means its likely BS Dude is an awful reporter Its just getting pushed around by the big boys. Again, in our own house, again. How can we expect this team to compete for the AFC East if we can't beat anyone besides the Dolphins in our house? Miami beat NE straight up week one. Dominated them in fact and were not intimated. I saw a weak team yesterday that got pushed around by a bully for the 25th time in 27 games. 23 of which had some dude named Marsha playing. I'm normally the most optimistic fan, but i see the same problems we've had for years. Marrone needs to fix it and fast. This roster is loaded

I'll believe it when I see it. Both of these games should be blowouts in Buffalo's favor.

This^ Moral victories are over. We beat the other teams like us and fall apart when the big bully comes to town. Been watching it for 14 years and its getting old

Orton is better than EJ right now. I will not dispute that but he needs to play better. This team is so talented and we are wasting it on a guy that didn't want to play football this year. Marrone better find a way to win games or he should be fired for pulling a desperate move

10 year vets don't have rust. He is a professional athlete, man up and play.

Fully agree. I hated the move to bench EJ for Kyle Freaking Orton? Are you kidding me? Desperate move by a desperate coach and if not for a ****ty kicker we are 2-4

They put him on the wall of fame. That was Ralph making amends

This is pretty much my point. I am not confident in the offense with Orton. He's gonna make a few great throws and he's the best we got but I think both he and EJ suck and we have a huge problem. Being the better if these two isn't hard

Orton. Got going way to late and had 2 bad TO. That sack he took on third and 20 late in the third is inexcusable as a ten year vet. Cost the team points and momentum. Dont get me wrong, he made some nice throws but too little to late Duke Williams is awful
