The Crowing Rooster Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Yes. I say there's good reason to have him up there. * Name another Bills QB who had us on the brink of the playoffs in the last 12 years. * 12 games played for 3018 yards (extrapolate those numbers to a full 16 games and we're talking 4000 yards in a full season) * QBR of 87.8 * 15 rushes, 14 yards with a long of 10 yards in 12 games (extrapolate that to a full season and he would have easily had over 100) * 18 TD's and 10 INT's is a ratio of 2 to 1...extrapolate that over a full season and he would have had 24 TD's * Mental toughness and team leader * If we had him as a rookie in 2005 he probably would have surpassed Kelly (or come close) if you extrapolate his stats from 2014 over the course of nine NFL seasons. I'm not saying he is a lock to get a place on the stadium Wall of Fame, but the team should give full consideration to his credentials both as a player and team leader considering how he came in a led our team to its best record in a very long time.

BringBackFergy Posted September 27, 2017 Author Share Posted September 27, 2017 Hell no. They system got us to 9-7. The guy had no desire to play football. You could see it in his eyes and demeanor. Seriously? That, and he played ONE year. On a larger note, how pathetic is this when fans are calling for a wall of fame slot for the only QB who happened to be QBing the one year out of two we have a winning record in 17 years. Hey, I know he didn't come back but if we had retained Marrone I say he would have been here for OTA's and stayed on for another 2 or 3 years. You look at his eyes and see apathy...I look in his eyes and see a fighter ready to take this team to the next level. Whatever...we'll agree to disagree but a winning record is a winning record (especially when he was not given a full season) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDIGGZ Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 you guys are quick to forget Kevin Kolb, best Bills QB since Kelly. if EJ didn't put that rubber mat there we would have won at least 3 Super Bowls by now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QB Bills Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Kyle Orton looks like he could have been the ugly older brother of Pacho from Narcos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yungmack Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 While Orton is certainly deserving of the honor, being one of the greatest and most beloved Bills of all time with years of service, no way he should go on The Wall before Billy Joe Hobert.

oldmanfan Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 If you consider over 3000 yds passing in a season a joke and a winning record a joke, then we may have a failure to communicate If you think one decent season is cause for a guy to make any kind of Wall of Fame you have a failure to understand the word fame.

Great post, BBF. Made my afternoon. I've enjoyed watching you shoot the fish in the barrel and will no doubt continue to enjoy it as more swim by (though I'm a little terrified of what appears to be the average intelligence of posters - good God!).
