K-9 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 If we had our rookie QB for the last 1.5 quarters in Cleveland, we'd be 3-2. No doubt in my mind about that, either. He was warming up in the third quarter. GO BILLS!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clearwater cadet Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Just get out of bounds next time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Cat Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 No doubt in my mind about that, either. He was warming up in the third quarter. GO BILLS!!! Yeah, two consecutive drives of moving the ball at will. The second half was looking mighty promising... Just get out of bounds next time! Truth...

He's taken a fair amount of crap around here, but Hackett has engineered some good 3rd quarters this year. Tells me he's made some good adjustments. GO BILLS!!!

mead107 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 We did know that we would have our ups and downs this year. I will still give our QBs 100% . I see a lot of good things in EJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountryCletus Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 But the fact of the matter is, we are 2-3, with a much improved team from years past, and we have an extremely bright future!!! And I will take that for sure!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 If we had a #1 OL I think we could just as likely be undefeated*. If Gilmore and McKelvin had not been hurt, and Byrd playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see a lot of good things in EJ. I do also. Needs to work on his deep throws. This was one of his knocks coming out of college Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybee Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 But going into the season with an un drafted FA rookie QB was simply moronic. Kind of Jauron . Surprised this hasnt been mentioned more than it has. I'm OK with our new head coach but we had this problem in training camp. When Kolb went down he had to sign a veteran QB at that point, and not go into the season with an un-drafted FA backup. Marrone for whatever reason did not address it and it has come back and bitten us right in the ass. I hoped and prayed EJ would stay healthy but as we all know, injuries happen...and happen a lot. Not signing a vet back up after Kolb went down was a huge mistake. I said it back then, I say it now. Maybe just maybe Thad will surprise us. I do understand and agree with that decision.....at this point. Go Thad, Go Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CountryCletus Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I wouldn't be shocked at that, but I also think they got a eye full of Tuel in the second half of the Browns game. Btw... Where are you from in PA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xsoldier54 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 After watching every game this year and watching the D play their tales off. It`s painful to watch the QB play. Rookie or not E.J. has cost us games with his up and down play. I know the average rookie QB will play like this. The 3 and outs and the fast playhas wore our d out at times. You put this D in Denver with Manning and it would be real ugly. Playing ahead with lots of points,they would be unreal.Hope E.J. makes the big jump next year. If my aunt were a dude she'd be my uncle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maury Ballstein Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) We did know that we would have our ups and downs this year. I will still give our QBs 100% . I see a lot of good things in EJ. Agreed. Unbelievable how many are jumping to negative conclusions about Mr Manuel so fast. I hear Josh Gordon's available for a second... Let's open this thing up. Peyton has welker Thomas and decker Let's give EJ woods SJ and Gordon. Edited October 7, 2013 by Ryan L Billz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobobonators Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) Funny thing is that last 2 seasons you couldve easily made the argument that with a top 10-15 defense we make the playoffs. Timing is everything. Its been the same dog and pony show for over a decade. I do feel like everything is slowly coming together now however (with a healthy EJ).
