HOUSE Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 (edited) EJ Manuel, Bills' offense flustered by Buccaneers' D Optimism usually buoys fans through the preseason, but Bills devotees were already in midseason frustration form, loudly serenading EJ Manuel and the offense with boos into halftime of a 27-14 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Manuel gave nothing for Buffalo to be thrilled about. He missed passes, failed on reads and looked lost when his offensive line faltered. Fourteen of the Bucs' 17 first-half points came off Buffalo turnovers. One of those turnovers was a sack and fumble by Manuel that Bucs defensive tackle Clinton McDonald rumbled in for a touchdown.

billsfan_34 Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 He was plain awful...serious accuracy issues, his play action fools no one along with that half hearted fake pass thing he does. On that TD drive he had against the bucs second string there was a play where he could of thrown it away as he was outside the tackles. He would of had to throw across his body to do so but he elected to run to the sideline and losing yards. This kid doesnt get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaccof Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 I haven't watched the entire game yet but know he lead the O for two TD's in the 3rd quarter. Was that against TB's starting D or their 2nd stringers? I couldn't tell listening to the game on Sirius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a QB problem and an O-Line problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, to point to one play to make a determination of whether he has "it" seems too harsh to me. BTW, the next play was the TD strike to Williams.

BuffalothruMyVeins Posted August 24, 2014 Share Posted August 24, 2014 Why so I watch this same crappy team year after year after year... I'm overweight and 30, I probably only have another 20 years left, will I ever see the damn playoffs again??? Hah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK I could refer to the myriad of crummy plays in the first half against the Bucs first string but there was so many. I used the 1 example because it shows the lack of football 101 this young man has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was so epically bad in the first half that anything he did in the second half is irrelevant. I have been a big EJ supporter, but now I am beginning to believe that we have nobody on this roster that can play QB in the NFL. It is going to be a very long season again.
