bisonbrigade Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 (edited) Collier keeps saying EJ looked good in this game BUT not not in practice. But look at his total stats this preseason, 20-30 358 yards 4 TD's 0 INT's. Pretty good to me. Taylor stats 24-31- 236 yards 0 TD's 0 Int's. 11 rushes for 108 yards 9.8 avg and 1 TD. Cassell 13-15- 83 yards 0 TD's o INT's. Edited August 30, 2015 by bisonbrigade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffismagic Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 If Cassel starts he will just lose two of the biggest games we need to start the season and I will be firmly in the Rex doesn't know QB's camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekJ Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 WGR and the local Bills beat reporters have been in such a free fall these last two weeks that I'm sure they're all in a state of denial. It's embarrassing how stupid they all sound sticking to their guns. They don't even realize that they collectively overrated Matt Cassel because they're a bunch of small thinkers who were apparently very impressed by a journeyman backup QB who went to the pro bowl 5 years ago...LOL ^^^^This Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark80 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 (edited) If that 40 yard crossing route to Gragg didn't convince you on EJ, then nothing will. That was a major league throw. He's the only guy on our team that makes that throw, or the TD throw to Palmer. Matt Cassel offers nothing over EJ, nothing. It's Tyrod or EJ, not a doubt in my mind and fine either way. This team is legit folks. Time to get excited. Edited August 30, 2015 by Mark80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 It's Tyrod guys, unless Rex's gut convinces him otherwise and he goes with Manuel. It's been Tyrod for a while now. Don't let these clowns rile you up. If Carucci is saying it too, I'm guessing their "sources" in the front office are misdirecting for the Colts game. dont forget he went to the playoffs! Did you know we haven't been to the playoffs in 15 years?!?!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffismagic Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Now WGR is claiming Cassel is Alex Smith. No, Trent Edwards before the head injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Tyrod or EJ, not doubt in my mind. Tyrod might be able to make that throw. Pretty sure that Cassel can't. That's why it's EJ or TT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bisonbrigade Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 WGR is like the Republicans and the Media trying rationalize in there minds that the Donald Trump runaway railroad will derail. Stupid to the very end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCinBuffalo Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 (edited) He has just cut a guy off for praising EJ.... this is hilarious. I hope OC is listening to this. I listened to the interviews. I heard Coller? say Cassel was going to be the starter. Then, one of the people I was watching/listening with grabbed my phone and turned it off. Nobody said a word. And, not to say I told you, and, they even locked my thread, but I told you so: http://forums.twobillsdrive.com/topic/180268-ifi-say-again-if-ej-does-well-against-pittsburghs-d/ I knew they would blame Pittsburgh's D. And, this ain't even the half of it. Wait until Monday, after they've had 24+ hours to refine their excuses. Boy is Pittsburgh in for a whipping. Please remember: don't be too hard on these guys. Bias is when you don't know you are doing it. When you know you are doing it? That's called: agenda. I don't think any of them have an agenda. Besides, some of these guys don't even know enough/don't pay attention enough to have an agenda. I firmly believe that all of these guys are mired in groupthink, confidence bias(otherwise known as the "eye test") and choice supportive bias(Todd McShay said "wasted pick"/"slow eyes", etc.) They bought into that for a pound, not a penny, on day 1. Ever since they have been clinging to the shovel and trying to dig themselves out of the hole. Most don't even know they are holding the shovel, much less that its far past time to put it down. The guys on the NFL network were the best: the host quoted EJ's stats and asked them if "he did anything at all to close the gap?" All they could say is NO. No ryhme, no reason. Just no. It was like watching two andriods. Edited August 30, 2015 by OCinBuffalo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob's House Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 A few observations from today: 1. EJ Manuel showed off his arm strength and showed he can do impressive things with a football. 2. TT showed that he's got an NFL arm and can get it done from the pocket. 3. Matt Cassel showed that he's good at playing ball control, reading defenses, and moving the chains. 4. The fans showed they put way too much stock in preseason football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
