bonechiller Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 I say .... YES! Love everythong I have seen so far. Few miscues have been minimal. Learning curve, and nobody is perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickedface Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 i'm starting to buy in that orton is the real deal. i also bought into EJ learning how to be a qb and leader by watching orton. that being said i am not interested in buying a bridge from you.

Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 You could easily put Vinny Testiverdi(sp) in the same category. He never won a Super Bowl, but certainly his best days were long after being drafted by Tampa. On the other hand while I'm not saying he's anywhere near terrible, both those guys did have better physical tools. Seemed their problems may have been more on the mental side of the game. Don't think that's ever been Orton's problem, in his case may be more questionable skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is a QB scrambling guru out there, Kyle needs to hire him asap! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewildrabbit Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 There is a real reason as to why the Bills tried to run it more against a stout run defense, and ended the Cyril Richardson experiment at LG. It pains me to see the team going forward with the same players on the roster at OG. Lions 2 sacks, Patriots 5 sacks, Vikings 6 sacks, Jets 4 sacks= 17 sacks in 4 games. The very last thing the Bills want to see is Orton scrambling around to get yards. To put that into perspective, EJ was only sacked 6 times in his four starts Kyle Orton could be the savior we all hope he is, that is "IF" he survives behind that line. The Chiefs are currently the #4 sacking team in the NFL with 25 to Buffalo with 28. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not the only one here saying the same thing. Then you have a lesson to learn too, my friend. Your reaction to Orton is a defense mechanism so that your heart isn't broken again. You expect failure so when it comes you can say you expected it. But being that way robs you of enjoying what happens along the way. Orton had two legendary game-winning drives in his first 3 games and folks here act like he lost those games. Yet when Doug Flute did that once in the Jacksonville game way back when he became an instant legend. It's YOU who should lighten up and start enjoying the season. The odds are we aren't winning the Super Bowl so instead of waiting for the disappointment have some fun now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the team is lacking in a certain area I have every right to say something about it. Other people post the same things I do yet you are not hounding them every day. I enjoy the season the same as I do every year. Win or lose I bi+ch and complain every time a Bills player does something stupid. the issue is that the Orton is God clic can't handle a bit of criticism. Please move on as I am trying to do.

Yet everyone is free to complain about EJ week after week? Bright spots? My complaints were about INT's, fumbles and sacks. Everything else people ASSUMED. You have to be concerned about the QB, whomever the he may be when it comes to INT's, fumbles and sacks. All of them were there for KO's first 3 games. That was mitigated Sunday, possible by keeping the number of pass plays down. Or the ineptness of the NYETS By this logic no one should be complaining about the O-Lone, Hacket, Marone or anyone else. Or maybe u are just a sourpuss well that too. Edited October 30, 2014 by BillsFan-4-Ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
