GunnerBill Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 League figured out Kelly's spread offense. Run 8 base plays (to left and then right alternately) at warp speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Rob Johnson was actually not that bad of a QB Its just that he would sneeze and fracture a rib Why couldn't have Rob been the next great one , would have save a lot of frustration and heart ache Run 8 base plays (to left and then right alternately) at warp speed. lol, yep and who needs reads anyways just throw it to the first guy or run.

todd Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 They cut Mario and it cost them 7 million in dead money on the cap....and they "really CAN'T CUT EJ!" because it would cost them 1.6 million? Even if his replacement is a better player, the Bills HAVE TO KEEP EJ! because his salary is guaranteed? Check out their cap numbers. Tight. Wouldn't make sense to cut a backup you are already paying for a guy who really isn't any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdand12 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Do you think for a backup role only or as the eventual replacement to Romo? back up, with a chance of playing. Romo and injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2020 Our Year For Sure Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Check out their cap numbers. Tight. Wouldn't make sense to cut a backup you are already paying for a guy who really isn't any better. Over the cap has us at 11.8m in cap space. Not an issue.

Mr. WEO Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Check out their cap numbers. Tight. Wouldn't make sense to cut a backup you are already paying for a guy who really isn't any better. Well if they thought his replacement IS better (as I suggested in my post) then it wouldn't make sense to keep the inferior player just to save a (relatively) tiny amount of money.

26CornerBlitz Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 No interest in Foles. @ChrisBrownBills Whaley in relation to free agent QB Nick Foles - at this point we're standing pat. #Bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 It doesn't make sense. EJ is a sunk cost for this year so why cut him? Ones then becomes a waste of money given he only had one good year. He was atrocious in St. Louis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both tweets are in the thread.Even if just 4 teams are/were involved, that's a 25% chance he lands with any 1 team. 25% is hardly a "likely" chance, but rather a potential chance. But anyways, even "potential" would be a poor word choice at this point. Edited July 29, 2016 by Saint Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Foles will bounce around as a backup, I think his starting days are over though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Frankish Reich Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Your kidding right? Foles is a special kind of awful. hes had like 12 good games, 3 years ago As they may be saying about Tyrod Taylor, c. July 2018. Those 12 games were hell of good though ... as Bill James said about baseball, as long as a player has had at least one good year in the past 5, some GM will sign him ... Foles is still young, he'll get a couple more chances, and I wouldn't be shocked if he turns in a few good years somewhere. I'd take him in a second over EJ.

GunnerBill Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Because EJ has had only zero good years and singlehandedly loses games. As much as you are right about EJ, Nick Foles lost the Rams games last year. He was staggeringly bad at times. I still think he is an upgrade on what we have but I do see the other side and the cost / benefit factor is finely balanced for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 @AdamSchefter The two teams the Rams discussed a potential Nick Foles trade with before the draft were Buffalo and Dallas, which now needs a backup QB. @thadbrown7 Thad Brown Retweeted Adam Schefter Kellen Moore, who made his first start v #Bills, broke ankle tonight.
