BmarvB Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) Why not? We need a veteran who's been around as insurance. Will he be an upgrade over what we had in Orton? Who knows.... Edited February 26, 2015 by BmarvB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Bills Fan Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 #CBF4Mod2015 Yes!!!!!!! Thank you sir!!!! CBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaaadThingsMan Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Still not a guarantee to start, Kromer knows how to get the best out of him since he already did in Chicago. If nothing else he's a another mentor for EJ to learn from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 true but he had to be the OC on the side as well because they didn't have one. I hear it helps to have an OC in the nfl. Makes sense. After all, Kyle Orton won without an OC on his team last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard bills fan Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 He's 35 years old, played on 6 different teams, went 1-10 in his first years as a full time starter.. What's not to be excited about... He's simply a back up guy that may not even make the team, another QB will be brought in to compete, and I'm guessing it's Sanchez.. Josh, Sanchez and EJ will compete for 2 spots, one will be cut. Sad but true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Vader Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Totally agree. The next QB should be a much better improvement. They better not think we're set at QB. BRADFORD, FOLES or LOCKER please. Now we're talking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San-O Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Stopgap until free agency/draft... We now have 2 (barely) pro level QB's - no way OBD is finished with the QB position this off-season. EJ will have to beat 2 vets and one rookie in camp to be the starter - IMO Who are the 2. I assume you count E.J. as one, and that's fine for camp, however who is the other?

Ontario51 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Good enough option, considering who is available. Actually like the new thread because the other thread is many pages of non sense & hard to follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uffalo Ills Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I like the new thread. I really do. It is better. I agree. Although i dont like that this has to be a new thread. I dont want Mccown in Buffalo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaaadThingsMan Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Rich Gannon was 34 the year he went to Oakland and had his best years there after a mostly middling career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BILLSviaPHILLY Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I'm trying to figure out what those who are against this have in mind as an alternative? Take a risk with our 2nd round pick and essentially assure we get no starting caliber players in this draft? Overpay for Cutler who has proven he stinks? Jeff Friggin Tuel? Or is it just that you think Sam Bradford, who isn't actually available, will end up on the Bills somehow AND THEN NOT GET HURT??? Here's the bottom line: The Bills are not in line for a franchise QB this year. BUT they can still win with the way Roman wants to run his offense. Run the ball effectively and limit mistakes...Ya know who will limit mistakes? McCown! The other piece to his equation is that EJ is still not a lost cause. He was not supposed to start as a Rookie. Remember Kevin Kolb? Between his concussion issues and the mishandling by Saint Doug, EJ's had a tough first two years. Maybe he breaks out. Maybe he improves enough to be a better game manager than McCown. Hating on the McCown move is 150% a faulty false hope philosophy that the Bills can get a 10 year starter this offseason. They cant. But the team is talented enough around the QB position that if the O Line is improved, they dont need a Tom Brady. Remember, Trent Dilfer won a superbowl.

NoSaint Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Rich Gannon was 34 the year he went to Oakland and had his best years there after a mostly middling career. unfortunately, mccown will be 36 at seasons start, and probably qualifies as even less than a middling career. that and gannon being the example everyone points at.... because its so incredibly rare.

Dorkington Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I'm all for competition, but if EJ and McCown are close in camp/pre-season, we better start the 24 year old who has room to improve, vs the 36 year old who is what he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very rare. Not a Raider fan but being in NorCal I had a front row seat to his emergence as unlikely as it was. I'd love for EJ to take the job and make it his, it's time!
