26CornerBlitz Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Some insight on number of QBs for the 53 Bills head coach Rex Ryan and his offensive staff have a lot of decisions to make in a couple of weeks as they will need to whittle the roster down to 75 and then 53 players. With a roster as deep as Buffalo’s there will be some tough calls, but when it comes to the number of quarterbacks Ryan envisions keeping he sees more than two.

Dorkington Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) Some insight on number of QBs for the 53 It makes sense, considering how close the competition is. (That and it being kinda costly to cut EJ, and foolish to cut Cassel) Edited August 18, 2015 by Dorkington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I'm sure he will. Then he will be out of the league in a year or so after they give up on him and he's 3rd on some other team competing for a job in 2017. So nobody's learned anything from this entire thread...thanks for confirming that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Imagine if EJ plays well on Thursday and the other 2 just okay or worse? This place will explode!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now its a 3 horse race and each candidate is still in it.. That is equally worrisome at this junction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Imagine if EJ plays well on Thursday and the other 2 just okay or worse? This place will explode!! It would take a vivid imagination to see Manuel play well. Is the moon in the 7th house? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EJ crusaders will be positive that he is the answer. The anti-EJ crusaders will be making excuses. The reasonable people will be called EJ crusaders or anti-EJ crusaders depending on which side is reading their post. It is pretty much like an ugly election. It will only get worse if the polls start running closer. Edited August 18, 2015 by Kirby Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was I imagining him looking good last Friday? It's not exactly far fetched. I think we're being far too melodramatic with regard to the QB "situation".

Solomon Grundy Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Why are people trying to run EJ out of town the same way they did Marshawn Lynch?? They all thought Lynch wasn't good because he was avg less than 4 yds a carry here. EJ is looking better folks. Give it a break! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all played well however which is why he didn't gain ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It showed me that Roman knows his stuff as opposed to the previous OC/HC duo who were plainly out of their element at the NFL level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshawn had good seasons and even made the Pro Bowl as a Bill so he had trade value. I suspect only Chip Kelly would consider trading for EJ at this point.

I seem to recall that most folks posited that Bills management believed was that Marshawn wasn't worth the headache with all his off the field issues and fact that they had Spiller and Freddie on roster.

I think EJ will be one of those guys that hangs about the league for 5 or 6 years as a backup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am with you. If he indeed doesn't ever become the starter here in Buffalo, he will be a capable backup especially with his work ethic and pleasant persona. IMHO, at worst he will have a Todd Collins type career Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm telling you, if the polls tighten up it will only get worse. Supporters will start campaigning harder than ever. The mudslinging will be out of control.
