BringBackFergy Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 Oh good grief! Can they actually play the damn game before we begin the what if'ing? Agreed.
Mr. WEO Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 . If EJ goes into this game & continues on the path that he started this preseason That path led him straight ot number 3 in the depth chart...

MDH Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 That path led him straight ot number 3 in the depth chart... Actually, that path led them to trade Cassel and he's number 2. Nice try though.
NOVABillsFan Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 That path led him straight ot number 3 in the depth chart... Did it? The past few weeks - I saw EJ as the #2 and with TT out with an injury the starter. not to bad of a path in my opinion
JohninMinn. Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) EJ had enough time last year to prove whether or not he was an NFL qb. Preseason means nothing. I hope im wrong but ej could be another Rob Johnson. Tyrod=Flutie EJ=RJ Edited October 18, 2015 by JohninMinn.

Greybeard Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 OTOH if EJ craps the bed. Throws dirt balls, and generally sucks, he will be writing his epitaph today. I agree, so really there is more pressure on EJ in this game than he will ever have in his career. No one mentions the Bengal defense is 6th in the league in sacks. Against our line, that says it all.
TheMadKat Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 Just reference the 5x it's happened over the last decade.
BLZFAN4LIFE Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 Oh good grief! Can they actually play the damn game before we begin the what if'ing? No. Once the game is played, it's no longer what if'ing.
BarleyNY Posted October 18, 2015 Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) It was the worst of threads, it was the best of thr......no, wait. It was just the worst of threads. You are a terrible human being for doing this. Okay, This week the Bills are going up against a 5 & 0 team (the Bengals) that has been pasting every one they come up against . Their offense is ranked number 2 in the league The Bills are going to start EJ this week due to Tyrods injury . If EJ goes into this game & continues on the path that he started this preseason & lets say throws for 325 yds. throws for 3 TD's & runs for 65 yds & winds up beating the Bengals handily then what ? Is EJ coming into what they thought he would be when they drafted him & a full blown QB controversy starts in the fans minds when Tyrod comes back the following week ? When EJ went in last week for the one play when Tyrod went out i found myself saying "COME ON EJ Show them what you got" I was hoping that if Tyrod stayed out EJ would come in take command & shred the Titans. Well i was just thinking along the line of a hypothetical question . We have been with out a good QB for so long the way the Bills luck runs this is something that could happen & put another huge thing on the to do list for Whaley & Rex . Well have fun with it Bills fans, while only time will tell if this is in fact something that comes to be or not ... Edited October 18, 2015 by BarleyNY
Malazan Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 Well, good thing we dodged a bullet with the hypothetical from this thread.
Jobu Posted October 19, 2015 Posted October 19, 2015 This friggin' place has no shortage of hypotheticals and knee jerks, don't worry. More bullets coming.
3rdand12 Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 Well, EJ did show them what he's got. yep walk in after a year and kill it. anything less is just..not enough.
Boatdrinks Posted October 20, 2015 Posted October 20, 2015 EJ had enough time last year to prove whether or not he was an NFL qb. Preseason means nothing. I hope im wrong but ej could be another Rob Johnson. Tyrod=Flutie EJ=RJ EJ is nowhere near the passer Rob Johnson was. RJs issue was mainly with his internal clock. It wasn't exactly a fine Swiss piece. He had a 3 second brain in a two second game, but he had a hell of an arm. A great practice QB, but once you took the red jersey off him he was exposed. If EJM had RJs accuracy and arm, the Bills would have their franchise QB
