It wasn't pretty..Not at all..but...

This pressure will make or break EJ Manuel. I think that yesterday's game was a huge learning experience. If he comes back and plays the same next week, I've got nothing.

The play-calling also needs to be better. On some of the replays I could see for myself he had nowhere to go with the ball. I don't like the throws out of bounds, but generally he's making good decisions.

I've seen enough to have some patience with the whole thing. Not that anythings guaranteed but still

He seems too tentative (and I hate to use that adjective as it evoke memory of a former train wreck QB). Need to see him relax and start slinging it put it on the WRs to make some plays.

its like the offense is back to the way it was under Jauron with receivers just running routes hoping to be open rather then plays being designed to get them open

 

unfortunately circling the wagons now means this franchise just goes in circles

The receivers seemed to have a very hard time getting open yesterday...not saying that EJ didn't play poorly because he did, but the lack of separation didn't help.

Agree completely.
