Geno Smith, Nick Foles among top 10 disappointments

 

Chris Wesseling of NFL.com says:

 

Every week, Chris Wesseling will roll out the power rankings for one specific NFL position. So far, we have covered running backs, safeties, red-zone threats, throwing arms and quarter-pole surprises. This week, we turn our attention to the top 10 disappointments at the quarter-season mark.

 

3. EJ Manuel, Bills: The Bills told us what they thought of Manuel's progress when they forked over $5.5 million in guarantees for Kyle Orton, who was contemplating retirement. The coaching staff tried to hide Manuel with play-action passes and quick reads, but he still sailed too many passes and failed to read the field. The team's brass can state publicly that Manuel remains in the plans. In reality, it took only 13 months to find out he is not the solution at quarterback.

Sad but true...

I had a feeling the film might catch up to Foles. Chipster will keep that offense going though.

Geno has more going for him than EJ? Since when? He has a few more good games but he has waaaay more bad games. I'd say it's pretty much a wash between these two

It's not a wash. EJ is a first round bust and Geno is a 2nd round bust.

Swing and a miss on EJ. I just hope we don't wait to address the QB position again and instead keep looking for young talented arms.
