DisplacedBillsFan Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Let's get a little optimism going around here (or let your hate out, haters), and get ready for the 2014 season!! Throw out your prediction for EJ's stats at the end of the regular season. We'll worry about his post season stats when we lock up the division at the end of November. What say I? 3,700 yards, 30 TDs, 15 INTs, and a 65% completion percentage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hazed and Amuzed Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I think that's a little too optimistic. I'd say: 3100 yards 23 TDS 11 ints 62% completion percentage I think that's has us in contention for a WC birth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybee Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 If healthy I think thats reasonable. If he does this well or better I'd say maybe a .500 season, or maybe even a game above that. Hope I'm wrong........and they go undefeated !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisplacedBillsFan Posted August 22, 2014 Author Share Posted August 22, 2014 I think that's a little too optimistic. I'd say: I think the talent around EJ, both the WRs' run after catch yardage and our RBs catching passes, will help his stats a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF he lives up to my prediction, and with our D...I'd put us at 11 wins. EJ is throwing 30 TDs this year? On the heaviest run team in the league? We saw Freddy catch 7 passes last week, correct? It's using our RBs in this manner (even if it is a check down and not the first, second or third option), and their ability to run after those catches, that have me believing 30 TDs is a real possibility.

Bangarang Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 (edited) A pretty good season would somewhere be along the lines of: 3500 yards 26 TDS 15 Ints 62% completion I would be pretty encouraged by those numbers.

BillsFan17 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Honestly, I am pulling for EJ3 in so many ways, hut I am seeing something like ... 3,000 ball park 19 TDs 16INTs 4 Fumbles, two lost. I want to say better numbers, but with the injuries stinting a lot of the growth, Manuel is basically having an encore rookie experience. Combine that with not seeing a lot in game time decisions. Practice the kid bas improved week in and week out. All we hear is how this practice is the nest in a bills uniform. Yet, that has not translated in the pre season all that much.

DisplacedBillsFan Posted August 23, 2014 Author Share Posted August 23, 2014 I say this, and if Sammy and Goodwin are healthy ALL year 3900 yds and 29 td's I'm sure we would all, mostly, be extremely satisfied with this type of season from our 2nd year QB.

FluffHead Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 @JasonPhilCole: #Bills coach Doug Marrone was told by several staffers, players at end of 2013 that QB EJ Manuel wasn't good enough. Preseason is troubling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorkington Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 After today's showing? I'm not sure he lasts 6 games until he's benched. Not all his fault, the OL sucked, and players slipped. But dear god he was horrible as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
