I don't know if you guys were around for the Super Bowl years. I was, and I was also around for the 1980 Bills playoff season. They were actually good in 1980, but sucked for years after that. It wasn't gratifying.

 

Don't know if you were around for the 1963 to 66 years. I was. We've had about 20 decent years out of 50. I'll take 9-7 in a heartbeat! Teams have won SB's with record that or worse. We have a decent shot at the playoffs and I am excited for t.

I'll have a better idea after seeing how Orton deals with Donkey Kong Suh and my former teammate, Nick Fairley. It could be 10-6 if Orton is capable against Lions. But what if he's worse than EJ? What if he's even worse than Tom Brady?!

I have Orton starting less than 4 games.

 

EJ or Kyle the record won't change much either way.

 

EJ evaded 2 if not 3 sacks Sunday. Orton would have been killed.

 

Nonsensical. That would have lost us the game? EJ over/underthrew like 10 passes. Applying your same logic train I assess Orton would have completed 7-8 of those, leading us to a 14 pt victory...

Now that our worst fears have been realized and EJ has been dispatched to the bench in favor of journeymen backup Kyle (David Grohl) Orton - I have sobered from my KoolAide stupor and am changing my initial projection of 13-3 (that's right...), to 5-11.

 

We were going to wind up 3-13 with EJ, so the only place we can go from here is up. Orton won't be a long term answer, but he sure will be an upgrade.

Worst fears ????

 

Yea right....lol

 

Why the excitement for EJ is more like it.

 

Even a 3rd grader knew 2013 was a poor Quarterback draft. We got exactly what we deserved for reaching

In the end, the front office and staff went all in on EJ and trading up for Sammy and they have crapped out. Sadly, I have every expectation the staff will be gutted this offseason and the rebuild to begin yet again. I don't understand the fan excitement as this move is an indication our team has yet again failed...miserably when you compound the lost draft picks.

 

Jesus you thought we were winning 13 games with EJ at QB? Over what....2-3 seasons?

Orton most likely reads the defense pre snap and adjusted the blocking or changes the play and finds the hot WR and delivers the ball within 2 seconds. What escapeability EJ can do with his legs, I believe Orton can do with his brain pre snap. So no I don't think Orton would have been killed.
