LB3 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 That's one snazzy windbreaker. Is the #ABC referring to "Always Be Closing"? ABC A...Anyone B...But C...Cassel Anyone But Cassel. Anyone But Cassel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloHokie13 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I think, unless those are 6 really long drives, they'll absolutely play 6 drives with the starters--they expect them to go into the 3rd quarter I believe. unless Tyrod leads another ~9:30 15 play drive like the one he opened with last week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDawkinstein Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 (edited) Trying to figure out what to make of this. Is EJ seriously still in the hunt to be the opening day starter? Is it really still a 3 QB race? Is it just a nice gesture to EJ for his hard work and solid drive against Cleveland? Maybe a smokescreen to throw off the Colts preparation? None of the above? All of the above? I'm admittedly perplexed. It is and always has been a 2 QB "race", with Cassel separate. The best thing for this franchise is either TT or EJ stepping up and earning the #1 spot. If neither of them could, we'd settle on Cassel. Cassel wasnt really in the race since he was our QB by default, but hopefully replaced.

plenzmd1 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Rex is cheap...i mean no clue how to develop a QB!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VABills Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Weren't they out for the Cleveland game too? And Tyrod was still able to put some things together. However he couldn't finish his drives, let's see if EJ can bring one home for a TD He had them in position for 2 fields goals, one was a short one that missed. TT did his job and controlled the ball, and put us in a place to score on 2/3's of his drives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDH Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 @viccarucci Rex: "Nobody can say they weren't given a fair shot (for starting job for #Bills). Love competitiveness of EJ Sure they can. If EJ and/or TT plays very well this game and Cassel struggles yet they name Cassel the starter. I might take issue with the "fairness" of the comp if that happened.

Canadian Bills Fan Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Looking at it another way... EJ - Whaley's baby Tyrod - Rex's baby Meh - Roman's baby All want their boy represented. After the game, Rex/Whaley/Roman have a "last-man-standing-gets-his-guy" cage match. He is? CBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubes Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 He had them in position for 2 fields goals, one was a short one that missed. TT did his job and controlled the ball, and put us in a place to score on 2/3's of his drives. Except for the fact that TT made a critical mistake and took a sack instead of throwing it away, which led directly to the missed FG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I think its safe to say that they will give EJ two drives. I know you can't keep the starters in for 6 total drives, but I think it would be pretty pointless to throw EJ in for as little as 3 plays (lets hope its more than that though) and pull him. If they really are wanting to give him a shot, which it appears they are, they will give him 2 Starters will play into the third typically. I'd guess Ej takes the first quarter, cassell gets second and tyrod third (would follow the natural rotation. If they give a guy into the half and then back on the field after, that could be noteworthy depending on the game flow (2min drill, and coming out of the half being two situations for a starter to experience in preseason) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Czervik Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 This is excellent news! It's in the best interest of every Bills fan for this kid to succeed. I can't see how anyone could think otherwise. Good luck, EJ! Absolutely! It might not all pan out but its the best scenario possible for the team if it does Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 I apparently should've stuck by my prediction that each guy will start one preseason game (including Simms--he should start against Detroit). Simms could very well play for the entire Detroit game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papazoid Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 it's the right thing to do. give EJ his shot with the 1's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 @ChrisTrapasso Each #Bills QB had bad misses/off days. When I was at camp, EJ was most accurate/decisive 3/4 days. Showed most advanced QB'ing in preseason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
