Pine Barrens Mafia Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 He's not good. He's not better than Tyrod. I will admit that my view and opinion of EJ's abilities was way off the mark. However, I still maintain that Tyrod, also, is not good enough and we need better. Both EJ and TT have to go. Go Bills! Same. We have no QB.
PolishDave Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 We had a defensive TD in that game which provided a nice swing in momentum. And Sammy had 2 catches for 20 yards on 5 targets that game. I'm not arguing against your ultimate point, though. Fair enough. I got my stats from here. I just assumed Sammy was out that day because he didn't show up on the leading receivers list. Goodwin had the best day by far yardage wise because of a deep touchdown pass. And Salas caught a deep one too.
Mike in Horseheads Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 I was always a EJ supporter but yup, thanks and move on. Unlike others I bet he's on a roster next year.
goldenboy81 Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Was a big supporter of ej..Gave up on him last year but was still hoping for something better from him than yesterday.. Wish the kid the best.

I wanted to believe in EJ because he works & studies hard. I wanted to believe in EJ because he's thrown some beautiful passes that hinted at potential. But after the Jets game, all hope and belief are gone.
BADOLBILZ Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 I think that a healthy Watkins and an early draft pick WR gives them improved weapons. They had 20 last year. 16 isn't insane, I just think that it will be higher with the rushing TDs dropping some. Maybe not though.... If they could put a legit big play threat opposite Sammy......the 30's wouldn't be impossible. I compare Tyrod's potential in this offense to Randall Cunningham or Daunte Culpepper in Minnesota. You don't need a franchise QB to score points but he has to be able to facilitate big plays. Give Tyrod another guy he's comfortable throwing 50/50 balls too and I don't really see how you keep them from being a top 5 scoring offense. Typically a good run game and a good deep ball game will be defensed by heavy pressure on the QB. Can't really do that with Tyrod at QB.......leaves your D vulnerable to huge open field runs.

I don't disagree. I bet that teams HATE preparing to play a healthy Bills offense. They have some of the most explosive and dynamic playmakers in the league at their positions. It's like preparing to play against a team that presses full court, all game in basketball. They put a ton of pressure on you.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 I was always a EJ supporter but yup, thanks and move on. Unlike others I bet he's on a roster next year. Serious question; if you are another team looking at all of EJ's tape, would you really want him on your team?
ProcessAccepted Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 You and I were both wrong n EJ. That said, If TT was able to score with this team I believe he is much better than we realize.
LB3 Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Serious question; if you are another team looking at all of EJ's tape, would you really want him on your team? Yes. He's a top 64 QB in the league and works well with the starter (one who took his job).
Big Gun Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Serious question; if you are another team looking at all of EJ's tape, would you really want him on your team? nope Yes. He's a top 64 QB in the league and works well with the starter (one who took his job). what makes you think he is top 64?
Kirby Jackson Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 I don't know if EJ is on a roster next year. I thought that he would be but I have some doubts at the moment. No team is going to take him over a rookie and pay him significantly more. No team is taking him as the starter. He needs to prove to be one of the 32 best backups to land a spot IMO. I don't know that he will be considered that. He's competing with guys like McGloin, Geno, Derek Anderson, Christian Ponder and some others to get a spot.
LB3 Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 nope what makes you think he is top 64? Geno Smith and Matt Cassel
metzelaars_lives Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Geno Smith and Matt CasselWhat did you see yesterday to make you think anyone would want him over Geno Smith?
Kirby Jackson Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Geno Smith and Matt CasselThose are the kind of guys that I think he's competing with. Is he better than those guys? Maybe, but I am sure that opinions will be split. Cassel for example, has proven that he can step in as a backup and not kill you. In addition, he's been good in meetings and as a mentor. If you are the Titans for example are you better of keeping Cassel or going for EJ? I have no idea but it's not a given.
LB3 Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 What did you see yesterday to make you think anyone would want him over Geno Smith? Everything I've seen out of Geno.
Big Gun Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Geno Smith and Matt Cassel Maybe they're even, but i have a hard time thinking EJ is better than any QB on any NFL roster right now. Edited January 2, 2017 by old school
