joey greco Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Yep shocking you don't have an answer. Let's just crusade for crusadings sake. You claim it's a wasted pick. So obviously you can see the future. So tell us more of the future. Here's your word for the day Marky: inference Once you've looked that up, you'll realize that AJ has made a rational inference about EJ Manuel's prospects, not a psychic prediction.

CodeMonkey Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Really not a big surprise. The Bills defense was able to win the first two games, but they could not against Rivers. This game the Bills needed Manuel to be more than a game manager, and he was not even close to being up to the task. This may be the recipe for this season anyway. If the Bills D can dominate, the Bills have a very good chance of winning. If they cannot, the Bills chances of winning become very poor. Hopefully Manuel will become a good NFL QB and will be able to win some games. Based on his collegiate career and his NFL career to date, I tend to doubt it. But hopefully the brain trust saw something in Manuel that will make me change my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deranged Rhino Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 This is how EJ made me feel with how he played today. In this case, he was the mother and I was the little girl: Just when I thought it was going to get better, it got even worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your attempt to chime in to save face for the poster is just a failure. So now after 12 career starts we can infer it's a wasted pick. Sorry that's just as idiotic as his post saying it's a wasted pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkAF43 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I mean, he's really still a rookie, isn't he. I'm going to guess that this is sarcasm. I'm not saying he played well. Not once today have I said that. I'm annoyed with the fact that the kid has a bad game after the TEAM starts out 2-0 (and realistically it's difficult to pick out players who DID) have a good game, but yet now everyone wants to run him out of town. It's just ridiculous to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Stop with the excuses, EJ stunk today. SD ran blitzed and stacked the box all day daring EJ to beat them and he didn't come close. We are watching Trent Edwards II, this book is going to end just like the previous book. Count on it. Im listening to Sal C. on the post game show.....I feel just like him. He plainly sits there and says EJ played poorly but the moron callers are twittering him to stop defending EJ when he wants to talk about ALL of the things that went wrong today. Its like people need a steady place to point their frustration and cant handle the mental capacity to know that we lost for several reasons not JUST because of EJ. I feel your pain Sal.

Well, John, there's a difference between watching a football game and watching the QB. We were bad in every phase of the game, today. I'm hoping EJ owns his share of the poor play, though. I need to hear him say he needs to play better. Just a tough day at the office all the way around. Now it's all about how the team responds. Today can either serve us well going forward or become something that lingers. I look forward to seeing how they rebound. GO BILLS!!!

starrymessenger Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I mean, he's really still a rookie, isn't he. And we only need him to be a mediocre game manager, don't we? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Allan in MD Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 EJ is the definition of mediocre, as Webster puts it "neither very good or very bad, average." He'll have his decent games but we'll see many more games like today's with him behind center. You can't teach accuracy and that's such a major problem with this guy. He regularly misses short, open tosses and guys who are sometimes wide open downfield, which was the case more than once today. A good percentage of his passes that are caught are because someone makes a difficult catch of a poorly thrown ball or has to break pattern to catch a pass thrown behind or on the wrong side of him. You can't teach accuracy just as you can't teach mediocre, though first round, cornerbacks very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jumbalaya Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 EJ did not look that much different than he did in the first two games. He just had more pressure and when he has pressure he really sucks. This guy does not have major league game. It is time for Kyle Orton or we will be back to 6-10.

ExiledInIllinois Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 I would rather him throw picks and lose like Rodgers, Manning, and Cutler does than have him get the yips. Intentional grounding for a safety? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Frankish Reich Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Broncos-Seahawks watchers, you just saw what a running quarterback who's not afraid to run can do. Peyton Manning improbably tied it with his passing, Russell Wilson then won it with his running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
