YoloinOhio Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) EJ was on NFLN Total Access last night. Here's the clip: http://www.nfl.com/n...tter_atl_hanzus "That was one thing I had to learn: to be smart when I take off with the football."

EmotionallyUnstable Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 A few things he noted as to why he'll be improved: 1. Familiarity with the offensive scheme 2. New play makers 3. Better decision making ability 4. "I'm 100%" Thanks for Posting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Wow, is it me or does EJ look noticeably beefed up? Shoulders/arms look significantly thicker to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jokeman Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 (edited) Wow, is it me or does EJ look noticeably beefed up? Shoulders/arms look significantly thicker to me. He does seem thicker but it could be the cut of his shirt and/or maybe the horizontal stripes make it look that way.

Dorkington Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Subtle difference between Chan and Doug noted in the interview... I like that they practice outdoors all year around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kellyto83TD Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 the #1 thing he needs to learn is how to read defenses and deliver the ball DOWN FIELD accurately and throw when a WR is covered and get it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibs Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 the #1 thing he needs to learn is how to read defenses and deliver the ball DOWN FIELD accurately and throw when a WR is covered and get it there. Isn't that 3 things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExWNYer Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Yea. But everything EJ needs to do this year is 1a, 1b, 1c.... I'm most interested in 2c. As in, I want 2c him win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big C Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Anyone notice that when he listed off the WR corps he mentioned TJ, Easley and Elliott, but not Hogan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wiz Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Anyone notice that when he listed off the WR corps he mentioned TJ, Easley and Elliott, but not Hogan? With Hogan being deep in the depth chart I doubt he gets first team reps with Manuel much but I did notice also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 @TCBILLS_Astro: #Bills EJ Manuel will improve YPA this season. Was tops in college, has line and more weapons now http://t.co/C0fZjSEB62 #BillsMafia Not sure if this is accurate because just grabbed off of Twitter verse but the link appears to show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Landing Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 I have not, nor do I expect, to see, hear, or read anything particularly enlightening from any interview any of our players has with the press this offseason. What I do expect to hear, are the players saying essentially what they are supposed to say. "I'm 100%," "take us where we need to go," "be smarter with the foot bat," etc. Even Watkins recent comments about "trust" with Manual were essentially banal. I think, as a fan, it's interesting to see these things on TV, just to get to know what our players look like, and how they sound. It allows us to feel more personally about them. But, that's about it. Of course, CJ Spiller made his platitudes that EJ will "take us to where we want to go..." What else would he say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would you need to read defenses when you're going to throw to a covered WR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 All he needs to do is stay healthy and stay on the field....the rest will come with reps...... And yes.....just look at the arms.

PO'14 Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 Just looking at the video and his passes. He is way better than Fitz ever was. He can go deep with a flick of the wrist. Fitz used to throw ducks 15 yards downfield. Second year people. Lets see improvement and lets watch a star shine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted July 13, 2014 Author Share Posted July 13, 2014 His neck and shoulder is noticeably larger to. Hope it isn't juice but just a protein shake! Interestingly. I also had thought during OTAs that he looked "thinner" than last season, Maybe it is just his neck/shoulders. But it standsto reason he has been in the Bills strength and conditioning regimen now for 1 whole year so he will look a little different. College strength and conditioning is usually different and their diets are not as planned for them.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
