Awwufelloff Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Tony Romo? I remember the board wanting either Gino Smith or Ryan Nassib. Yeah in the 2nd-4th round. No one wanted a QB in the first. No QB had a first round grade.
Rocky Landing Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 But he has the best hard count in the league...
Haslett_Stomp Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 I do wish EJ well too. He's a class act that always worked hard. He's a likable guy with good attitude and demeanor. Yes. Felt bad for him when he got wiped out on that blitz.
Best Player Available Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 When EJ missed Clay wide open at the goal line on a 15 yard throw that was pretty much it. A QB has to make that throw. No excuses. His accuracy and mechanics are terrible. If people want to blame that on coaching or 'mishandling' then they're in denial of observed reality. By now either he has 'it' or he doesn't. The tape doesn't lie. Seriously, what team is going to be interested in picking him up after this performance? Plenty of semi pro teams would take him in a minute. He may need to ride the pine a year or 2 though.
ALLEN1QB Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Good luck EJ been a class act just didn't work out.
Prickly Pete Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 A great post-game handshaker. He would shake hands with anyone, down to the opposing team's ballboys. So good. Yes. Felt bad for him when he got wiped out on that blitz. Funny, I felt good. I always supported EJM, but by now he has just been collecting paychecks, and perhaps that push was what he needed to move on to a career as a high school coach or something along those lines.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 We will see him at Wegmans trying to move up from being a bag boy but than he will be demoted since he kept missing the bag low Why do people say stuff like this? He's 26 years old, seems to live a modest lifestyle, and his contract guaranteed him $8.8M. Unless he's invested like fool or been defrauded, he won't be working as a bag boy anywhere.
ganesh Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Agreed. I have no ill will towards the guy. He seems like a genuinely decent human being, it appears he put in the hard work to try and improve...he just wasn't good at the QB position. The game was just too fast for him. Another J.P. Losman

Unless.....YOUR response is sarcasm.... Hey, wait a minute!
Billschinatown Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Today EJ lost his biggest fan: https://www.reddit.com/r/buffalobills/comments/5lh55y/postgame_thread_buf_nyj_week_17/dbvmihc/ Edited January 2, 2017 by Billschinatown
RyanC883 Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Agreed. I have no ill will towards the guy. He seems like a genuinely decent human being, it appears he put in the hard work to try and improve...he just wasn't good at the QB position. The game was just too fast for him. Yep. If Whaley brings him back he is done (Whaley, that is, and I am a longtime Whaley supporter, but EJ is terrible). Good luck EJ been a class act just didn't work out. this is how I feel. Guy couldn't cut it in the NFL. NO shame in that. Most people who are drafted can't. Guy did appear to put in the effort. Perhaps we will see him as an announce on the new ACC Network!!
BillsFan130 Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Does he even get a back up job next year? He will have to earn it if he does. Because you don't get too much worse than that today
DDD Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Whaley may bring him back, all he needs is more time. But he has the best hard count in the league... and has big hands
Big Gun Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Does he even get a back up job next year? He will have to earn it if he does. Because you don't get too much worse than that today No, today EJ did his own Eulogy and was a remembrance of just how bad of a QB he is.
DDD Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Good guy by all reports but should have NEVER been drafted in 1st round. How Whaley is still GM is mind boggling.
T master Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 I still think his development was totally screwed by us. One of those guys that if he were drafted by the right team, might have turned out solid.... now he'll be lucky to be a backup somewhere. UMMM ????? NOT !! EJ is the same guy he was in college , he never should have sniffed the first round !! When our 3rd string QB that was inactive all year turns in a better day than a 4 yr player that screams SEE YA EJ !! Great guy !!! Bad NFL QB !!
JOE IN HAMPTON ROADS Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) It is amazing how patient the Bills were with him. They really gave him several chances to succeed. I wish EJ the best of luck in his next career. Imo He was and probably still is Whaley's favorite. He might not even get cut. Does he even get a back up job next year? He will have to earn it if he does. Because you don't get too much worse than that today London? Edited January 2, 2017 by JOE IN HAMPTON ROADS
KOKBILLS Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 I really felt bad for EJ today...He just simply does not have it...And it looked to me like that realization hit him while he was sitting there on the bench after missing the throw to Clay... We all know he's a stand up guy...Quality person...And all that...It's too bad...But an NFL Starting QB he is not...
