CountryCletus Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Getting the Detroit broadcast ota (live much nearer to Cleve, can't get it ota), interesting to get their view on JF. Orlovski as a #2 qb doesn't look bad. Just wait until he runs out the back of the end zone.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF Bills Fan Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Granted he is not playing against starters, but he is making plays. Passes looks crisp and accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truth on hold Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) As much as hoyer isn't the answer, JF does not look anywhere near ready Quoting and disputing my own post. After he settled down a little looked pretty good .... Ran an uptempo offense, made good decisions, made different throws, made the lions defend more of the field than hoyer . Don't see why they'd go bother sticking with hoyer. Edited August 10, 2014 by Joe_the_6_pack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohiostyle Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Just wait until he runs out the back of the end zone.... Ah I remember that. He's playing with confidence, which is about half the battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffaloed in Pa Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 John Boy has shitzy receivers, lots of drops. He can fire the ball. Playing with #2 receivers and line. Against 2nd string. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 He looks like the same player he was in college. He's actually a good accurate passer from the pocket and he has a rifle. The only question mark for me is, of course, can he take the pounding. No one knows the answer to that yet. He's very, very tough, but these mofos hit hard and don't play nice.

PromoTheRobot Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) Definitely Pettine's defense. Feels like watching us last year. Edited August 10, 2014 by PromoTheRobot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks to protect himself well with the slides and going OB. The one hit he took in the pocket seemed like a late hit to me (at least by Brady rules) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
run dat back Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I don't really care what he did in college, it's a different game now, and so far he has shown himself to still lack maturity and self-restraint. I'm not buying into the hype that ESPN is so desperate to sell us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Just wait. The EJ bashers will soon be here with the,"we should have signed Manziel" nonsense. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohiostyle Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Nice toss by thigpen, I think we should sign him and let em compete for the starting gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFergy Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 You guys notice any balls batted down?? Just wondering how his height may factor into his game (EJ is 6'3" and had a few passes blocked). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truth on hold Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Just wait. The EJ bashers will soon be here with the,"we should have signed Manziel" nonsense. You can probably count me in on that.

Buffalo Barbarian Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 He`s looking good. Throws are crisp and accurate. Ran for a 1st down . Had another long run, 4 of 6. 37 yds. Receiver had one foot in on one. Other was a drop. but, but he is toooo weak and small to play in the League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deranged Rhino Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Let's see Johnny Football tear up some second-stringers and begin his march to a 10-6 OROY season. Mr. Watkins will have something to say about that. Especially when the Bills destroy the Browns on November 30th and Dareus and spikes tear Johnny football in !@#$ing half.

Gotta make Johnny "earn" it, Pettine will be coach of the year. Ah I remember that. He's playing with confidence, which is about half the battle. He has the IT factor and there's just no losing that. I don't really care what he did in college, it's a different game now, and so far he has shown himself to still lack maturity and self-restraint. I'm not buying into the hype that ESPN is so desperate to sell us. yes because that has always held him back , how much maturity and restraint did Kelly have when he played. You can probably count me in on that. Be very interested in a straight up trade IN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only question mark for me is, of course, can he take the pounding. No one knows the answer to that yet. He's very, very tough, but these mofos hit hard and don't play nice. A lot of quick throws tonight for him. He was impressive. Was decisive and has an arm. Thought he had two throws on the mark that should've been caught. One hit WR in the knee other in the hands. Hoyer is a vet who hasn't played and hasn't been good enough for 3 other teams. If Manziel isn't the starter the Browns are delaying their future. On flip side they have garbage at WR. Other things I took was he played behind a pathetic OL and West was impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
