What if Orton Beats the Pats?


Recommended Posts

Then we did what we're supposed to, win at home. Need to finish 6-2 at home, or better, and 4-4 on the road. The path to 10 wins either includes winning on Sunday or upsetting Green Bay in December. Six home games left, NE - MN - KC - NJJ - CL - GB and all are winnable though NE and GB are tough. We have 5 road games left, NJJ - MI - DE - OAK - NE, and should win NJJ and OAK, getting to 4-4 on the road. So if the Bills lose to both NE and GB at home, they need to pick up one more road win, probably Miami, which is realistic but always tough.

 

EJ costing the Houston game will really bite if we drop another winnable game and settle for 9 wins. Or if it turns out 10 wins doesn't get us in.

 

For all the one game at a time guys, sure I get it, but it's important to understand what's at stake this week.

And looks good doing so?

 

Do we instantly give him 50 million? Do we all buy Orton jerseys? Do we bow down to the mustache messiah?

 

The road to the playoffs always goes squarely through New England in this division, and if the Bills beat the Pats I'm ready to believe. If they get beaten handily, it's just another year of business as usual.

you do nothing but celebrate the W.

 

Orton is a band-aide and nothing more

Orton is here only until EJ is ready (probably next year or year after), or a new qb comes in and gets ready. To be honest, I see Orton as our qb through next year...unless he completely ***** the bed.

Sometimes a band-aide is all you need. The team was built this year to expect only weak play from the QB. Anything beyond that is for this year a bonus. From the looks of Orton, he's a competent, middle of the pack capability, which is far beyond what EJ was doing. Whether Orton is better or worse than Fitz, we'll have to wait and see. At least for now, he's a lot cheaper than Fitz.

yet bandaid fall off and get tossed in the trash :flirt:

 

Cheaper for the same product (maybe slightly better) is always good.

It would be a huge win that sets up the Bills to be in control of the AFC East with a potentially softer schedule over the next several weeks.

 

At this point, he needs to win to validate the decision and what he currently makes. Only way he would get a new contract would be if they get to the playoffs and deemed the starter going forward at the end of the season.

It wont be Orton that beats the Pats it will be the Bills that beat the Pats and it will mean that we are moving in the right direction and gives us a chance to build momentum and a nice streak before heading unto the bye week.

The front office will buy him a case of Habanos, and a truckload of single malt.
