Agent 91 Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 Based on this list how does Cassel fit in Roman's offense? Is Sims mobile? So T-Mobile was the man of the day? He's looking good. I hope it lasts. T Mobile i like that
BobbyC81 Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 Why the hell can EJ hit garbage cans, but not his WRs The garbage cans aren't moving and nobody is covering them.
Chilly Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 Is Sims mobile? T Mobile i like that SIM cards and T-Mobile? I thought this was a Bills forum, why we talking cell phones?
Solomon Grundy Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 SIM cards and T-Mobile? I thought this was a Bills forum, why we talking cell phones? Tom Brady references
zevo Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 so im not sure what to believe...listening to wgr this am.....they are making it sound like its the end of the world and all the qbs have been absolutely brutal....cassel being the least crappy....color me confused.

I do not take these reports at this point very seriously. I question how they are making those judgments, whether they know what they are looking at, and are capable of actually identifying what separates good, bad, and mediocre is the context of what the coaches are asking them to do. The pay no heed at all it seems to the role of the defense in any of this for example, or what routes are being run (or not run), etc. The fact that the various reporters seem to have differing opinions, and that credible reports from Astro, for example, yield a different take, are evidence of the superficial attempt to evaluate they are making. As for the stooges on WGR, what makes anyone think they know what they are talking about is beyond me. Just entertainment. I am going to wait to see the product on the field before I form any opinions on who is "winning" the QB competition, or until the Coaches actually say something meaningful about it. I realize people are anxious to have the answer, but we do not have it yet, and relying on the these camp reports to form judgments on the subject seems silly to me. Sure the speculation is fun, but the facts are far from in.

Nick in RaChaCha Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 I focused on EJ at Sunday's Camp. Timed him with my phone when he was dropping back when he was doing 7x7. He consistently threw the ball around the 4 second mark and his throws even when caught were off target. Look - I have been an EJ supporter. I want him to succeed. But to my untrained eye - he does not look like he has improved at all over last year. Just my 2 cents.

But to my untrained eye - he does not look like he has improved at all over last year. Just my 2 cents. That type of thing is somewhat expected with a new offense and is certainly something that can get better with repetition, but the fact that there's such a clear history of it with EJ makes hoping for that a lot less likely. Honestly, I've never been a fan of the pick, but of course hoped he would prove me wrong, especially after coming in and at least sounding and looking the part of a leader. It's early, still time for a surprise. Astro, if you're still reading, while I know it's impossible to go over every little detail, I'm also interested in your take regarding what the media is seeing in the QBs (doom and gloom) vs. your much calmer view. Media exaggeration? A fans skew? Somewhere in the middle? Edited August 3, 2015 by Acantha
Dr. Who Posted August 3, 2015 Posted August 3, 2015 I certainly don't know what the truth is about EJ or any of the other qbs. In addition to Astro's fine reports, I'd like to recommend folks here give a look to reports written by Badlandsmeanie over at BBMB. The writing by itself is humane and funny, while the observations contradict the groupthink among Buffalo media. The latest offering is pinned. Give it a read.

He seems to be a little more all over the place than astro but still good to hear that both meh and EJ aren't as bad as the reports are.

More interested in ambiance and the like, but I still believe his impressions are sound and worth throwing into the mix of opinions. Edited August 3, 2015 by Dr. Who
