BobDVA Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 EJ. Third year in this system. He'll be the most prepared/knowledgable putting him at a significant advantage to start. We have zero reason to question his work ethic and I'm guessing he knows he's fighting for his professional 'life' come training camp. With modest improvement from him.... and substantial upgrades on the O line, EJ willl be serviceable. quit trying to make sense! It is like trying to explain science to a Fox News watcher.
BillsFan130 Posted December 30, 2014 Author Posted December 30, 2014 I just don't see EJ. I think marrone would have started EJ against new England if he believed he "has it"
FireChan Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 quit trying to make sense! It is like trying to explain science to a Fox News watcher. Booooo.
prissythecat Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 It's so early in the prediction game, what other guess makes more sense? Cutler? Glennon? Sanchez? I don't think you need to project "miraculous" improvement to end up with EJ as a starter. Lots of young QBs get better. EJ's QB rating in his career so far (78.5 with 15 starts) is better than Drew Bree's QB rating in his first season as a starter (76.9 with 16 starts). Drew got better, why can't EJ? And then there's the matter of competition. How many FA QBs out there are better than EJ? How many QBs in the draft this year could come in and start right away? I'm not saying I'd be happy seeing EJ under center opening day, but I don't think KD's prediction is horribly unlikely. In fact, it's hard to think of a more likely scenario. Comparing EJ to Drew Brees is just absurd. EJ looked lost and overwhelmed . The game will never slow down for him.

Manther Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 I've been saying Bradford for months so I won't stop now. Not really sure why I feel that way but I do. Bradford is under contract. I don't think the Rams cut him and have no QB next year as the two QBs on their roster didn't get it done. With that said if the Rams are not cutting him they will want a good return to trade for him. I would think that would be more than a second round pick since they will then be without a real starting QB. Ryan Mallett
Indy Dave Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who told me don't be shocked if Matt Ryan is traded to the Bills.
playman Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Nick Foles in a trade involving EJ. with ej going 14-2 and winning it all in chips system
QCity Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 I'm scared they are going to get desperate and do something crazy to get Cutler.
Jmsbills Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 The only person right now who believes he is the starter is EJ - but I have no idea and neither do the Bills.
Kelly the Dog Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 The only person right now who believes he is the starter is EJ - but I have no idea and neither do the Bills. While I believe that to be true, I would say that Whaley, Marrone, Brandon, and Pegula all believe that the starter is EJ right now, because he is all they have right now. When someone becomes available, and they sign him, and he is a legitimate chance to challenge him, then and only then will that change.

Now thats a rumor I can wrap my arms around!
Rocky Landing Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 Well, given the last several vets this team brought in, I would say a natural progression would lead to... Rex Grossman?
CSBill Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 EJ Manuel . . . and he'll be voted a captain by his teammates
