Thisistheyear Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Buddy's bro hug needs work. He had the "Did I just get violated?" look on his face. Absolutely hilarious. He hasn't even suited up for the Bills yet and I already love him. Either he's the worlds best actor or the most genuinely likable guy this side of Peyton Manning. I hope he actually performs on Sundays - rooting for the Bills would actually be fun again. That's the one word I think when I've seen him in interviews, on Gruden's QB camp and in this piece - Genuine. It has nothing to do with QB play, but I like it.
LynchMob23 Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 If you'd like to hear more from EJ here's part of his post draft interview (that they showed clips of in the original video) - Favorite answer was when someone kept pounding on Buffalo being cold, having snow/etc: "I'll get my shovel." Love it!
eball Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 Watching that, and reading everyone's comments, just puts a huge smile on my face. Can't wait for the rookie minicamp in nine days!
jaybee Posted May 1, 2013 Posted May 1, 2013 After watching the video I think we made a bad pick !! Stop...Stop...Stop...Stop... Just messin witcha, fellas. Hard not to like this kid....PERIOD. Go Bills !!
San Jose Bills Fan Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 Loved that. Loved the receptionist too. And loved Werner and EJ jawing about the first preseason game (Indy Buffalo). Second preseason game is Vikes so EJ will get to face Rhodes right after facing Werner. Don't forget Christian Ponder.
San Jose Bills Fan Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 Staying with the EJ lovefest, here's a piece featuring former Brown's GM Phil Savage who now runs the Senior Bowl. EJ's Senior Bowl teammates voted him team captain before the game. http://www.seniorbowl.com/news-highlights-detail.php?news=40 There's some video of EJ during Senior Bowl practices.
Chandler#81 Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 A TSW lovefest?? Never thought I'd see the day.. P.S. I'm all in too!
DefenseWins Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 EJ might just make this team watchable again... That in itself is a good starting point... The Sports Science segment on EJ on YouTube is amazing... It has to be seen... http://youtu.be/FOLEMyMkDdU

Just keeps getting better and better with this guy. Let's hope it shows on the field, and people don't expect too much too soon.
filthymcnasty08 Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 I NEED an "I'll get my shovel" Manuel #3 T-shirt........like yesterday.
GG Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 I'm a big believer in reading body language. You know the comparisons between the top two QBs drafted in 2013 will go on for a while, so here's gangrene's take It's easy to see why there's more excitement among Bills fans.

Our guy projects like a freaking movie star compared to Geno. Something is off with Geno.
Uncle Joe Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 Just win baby! That being said I like his upside, character and wholeheartily agree with MDH. He hasn't even suited up for the Bills yet and I already love him. Either he's the worlds best actor or the most genuinely likable guy this side of Peyton Manning. I hope he actually performs on Sundays - rooting for the Bills would actually be fun again.
Punch Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 "EJ Manuel has had many big moments in big games throughout his career. Yet what will define him for years to come was not a long run, a touchdown, or anything on the field. It was a halftime speech."
NeverOutNick Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 I NEED an "I'll get my shovel" Manuel #3 T-shirt........like yesterday. YES!!! Love it...someone make this and i'm ordering one for everyone in my family! This kid is special and hard to dislike. Like I've been saying forever Buffalo needs it's own version of Big Ben and I think now we've got him! GO BILLS

ganesh Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 That was great. Obviously we all hope he turns out to be a player on the field, and that's pretty much all that matters. Win games, get in the playoffs, go for the Super Bowl and win it. But man, if he succeeds, what a face of the franchise this guy could be. The one takeaway I had from this video is, holy moly, he is HUGE. He dwarfed Kelly and Marrone, who are pretty big guys. +1. I thought the same too. And Hackett looks so tiny "EJ Manuel has had many big moments in big games throughout his career. Yet what will define him for years to come was not a long run, a touchdown, or anything on the field. It was a halftime speech." Awesome media clip. I think this guy is special. So many traits that you don't see in a single person. Now can he QB the floundering Buffalo Bills to a championship? I am feeling good about the chances !
The Wiz Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) I NEED an "I'll get my shovel" Manuel #3 T-shirt........like yesterday. Quick and dirty but you get the idea. Edited May 2, 2013 by The Wiz
filthymcnasty08 Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 Quick and dirty but you get the idea. We need to get the folks that made the amish rifle, In Chan we trust t-shirts involved here. That is, if they didnt go out of biz from selling "Amish Rifle" and "In Chan we trust" T-shirts.

I feel like I could run with that quote in so many different photoshops it's not even funny at this point.
