Buffalo Barbarian Posted August 8, 2014 Posted August 8, 2014 Considering us supposed "Impatient" Bills fans are here daily mourning the loss of our first round pick next year and fearing the worst as we have been conditioned to do for 14 years. Is EJ going to bust? I don't know but I can tell you with some certainty that the odds are not great for Tuel or Thad to reach a pro bowl or get us out of this deep deep hole. Soooo.. if you could have your choice of any free agent QB , who you believe would be physically able to play and an improvement on EJ, who would it be? Keep in mind he would have to fit our offensive scheme as well, preferable mobile. I have come up with 3. Josh Freeman- Had a tough shake in Tampa which has resulted in a loss of confidence and probably most concerning mental stability. But he has been successful in this league, is mobile enough to escape the pocket and pick up a few. Has a similar build to Ej, big arm and if given the support needed I think he will rebound. Also with the addition of Mike Williams he has some familiarity, bonus!? Tim Tebow- Imagine our run game with this wrinkle sprinkled into the game plan, Yikes. Tebow has been to the playoffs, won in the playoffs and with what? A great defense and young play makers. Similar to our current situation. The Tebow criticism is the added attention he brings and you know what, I don't care. The kid won games and along side our run game he would thrive. A big bomb every so often that our receivers can run under and he would draw enough attention to do it. Then pound the rock, it would be something! Perhaps even giving this kid, which I imagine many feel is a product of over exposure in the media rather than being worthless to a football team... maybe by giving him a shot cuz Belicheat wouldn't and the Jets wouldn't, maybe we will lift the Flutie curse.. lil popcorn fart he is. Vince Young- Still in shape, I have no clue outside of his financial problems why he was cut his first time round with us... too much competition for fitztragic perhaps. I'm sure he'd come out of retirement to play for any team, at all. I would take literally any single one of these guys over Tuel and Thad.. and that's the problem. EJ needs to be pushed by someone who has attributes that will rival his own. This is how the greatest of athletes differentiate themselves from just players of a game. I get EJ is self motivated, studious, coachable... he does not have someone else who wants it just as bad or worst. Neither of our back ups make EJ sweat in the least. What's your take? Any other realistic options out there in free agency? Am I off my rocker? No - Yes - No, Alex Smith.
BringBackFergy Posted August 8, 2014 Posted August 8, 2014 May God have mercy on your soul. These threads are getting "worser" and "badder" about QB's. We need to create a democratic way to force closure of a thread. If you guys remember The Gong Show, if all three judges agreed, the gong would get hit and the contestant would be taken off stage. GONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Or is it.?.........BONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
dollars 2 donuts Posted August 8, 2014 Posted August 8, 2014 Quite simply if it comes to it I'd rather draft the best qb available in the second round next year and give EJ a third season and see what happens. Not real worried as I think EJ will show progress this year.
