Hapless Bills Fan Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 The question isn't if he could, it's if he will be. You should delete your vote unless you are absolutely sure he will be, or won't be a franchise QB. How about if we let the question and people's interpretation thereof stand on its own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QCity Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 He'll never be a franchise QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I tried not to be vague with, "Do you believe that EJ will be a franchise QB?" You either believe that he will become one or your don't. OK, I vote "yes" because "Franchise QB" seems to be one of those terms like "indecency" you can't define it and its in the eye of the beholder.

You should delete your vote unless you are absolutely sure he will be, or won't be a franchise QB. That's not it either. It's like an over under bet. It's asking, if you have to decide right now do you think it's more likely that he will or won't be a franchise QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maddog69 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I would have little respect for anybody who can honestly answer this poll either way. Too many variables, not the least of which is defining "Franchise QB". In my opinion, those a few and far between. Most of the QBs are not what I would call "Franchise QB's" like Montana, Elway, Brady, Manning etc. A franchise QB is a HOF QB. Most QBs are not that, but many of those are still good enough to win consistently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkAF43 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I think this poll is exposing some people for not wanting to commit one way or another. It takes guts to put your name on one side or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uffalo Ills Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Again, this poll misrepresents positions held by "EJ Supporters". My answer to the Poll Question would be "He has a chance to, sure. But he also might not. I support letting him develop for another season to find out." Exactly. If we went off of 14 games played, Drew Brees would be playing arena football.. Do I want to succeed? Yeah Will he become Peyton Manning Overnight? Hell no. He'll never be great, but good enough works for teams like the Bengals, Eagles and Cardinals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes guts to put your name on one side or the other. I'm not undecided because I can't make a decision, the jury is just still out. He has the potential, possibly.

The Wiz Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 sure. For the bills, to soon to tell. For another team, maybe. For the CFL, why not. For arena football, why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LB3 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 The question isn't if he could, it's if he will be. You should delete your vote unless you are absolutely sure he will be, or won't be a franchise QB. At least you actually voted before you decided to critique, unlike others.

It takes guts to put your name on one side or the other. If honesty means lacking guts, then I lack guts. I have not a clue what EJ will become down the line, I think he's shown promise at times, and I also think he has faults. I don't think his career is written in stone. I lack guts. At least you actually voted before you decided to critique, unlike others. I deleted my vote because it didn't match exactly what they were looking for, I'm a team player.

FireChan Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 It's a question of faith. If you think he will be or think he won't be. Neither answer is wrong. How could this be complicated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mean it to be insulting, so I apologize if it came across that way ( and it wasn't any shot at you), I just meant there are many posters here who would prefer to stay neutral on it, so whatever the end result is, they can still say they were right. Nothing personal aimed at you with what I meant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
