Brianmoorman4jesus Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 That Orton team was the best bills team of the drought. If he starts week 1, we are in the playoffs. No way we lose that Houston game with Orton and we probably also beat SD. EJ killed us in them
HuSeYiN_NYC Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Heyyyyyyyy I just came by to say hello... What are we talking about?
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 If the franchise were 17 years old, he's a slam dunk.

cba fan Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 (edited) Yes. I say there's good reason to have him up there. * Name another Bills QB who had us on the brink of the playoffs in the last 12 years. * 12 games played for 3018 yards (extrapolate those numbers to a full 16 games and we're talking 4000 yards in a full season) * QBR of 87.8 * 15 rushes, 14 yards with a long of 10 yards in 12 games (extrapolate that to a full season and he would have easily had over 100) * 18 TD's and 10 INT's is a ratio of 2 to 1...extrapolate that over a full season and he would have had 24 TD's * Mental toughness and team leader * If we had him as a rookie in 2005 he probably would have surpassed Kelly (or come close) if you extrapolate his stats from 2014 over the course of nine NFL seasons. I'm not saying he is a lock to get a place on the stadium Wall of Fame, but the team should give full consideration to his credentials both as a player and team leader considering how he came in a led our team to its best record in a very long time. "99 bottles of beer" on the wall. Have a better chance then K Orton of going on that wall. Maybe Aaron Rogers should be on the wall as well, as in, If Bills had drafted him when they had the chance, his stats would have been better then Kelly's. Edited September 27, 2017 by cba fan
OhDozeBills Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Guessing this is a joke. Not funny tho
GunnerBill Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Maybe Aaron Rogers should be on the wall as well, as in, If Bills had drafted him when they had the chance, his stats would have been better then Kelly's. They didn't have the chance. They had traded up for JP Losman the previous year.... giving up their 2005 1st rounder.

BillnutinHouston Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 I'd let him slide. ^^ Almost missed the humor. Nicely played.
Koko78 Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Heyyyyyyyy I just came by to say hello... What are we talking about? Hello! We are discussing the 12-game HoF-worthy career of Kyle Orton, and why, for some incomprehensible reason, ignorant people do not want him on the Bills Wall of Fame.
Lurker Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Yes. I say there's good reason to have him up there. This is an automated response: Please use the sarcasm font when posting this kind of material.
Ned Flanders Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Orton? Simply put, no. Deserving Bills from the "Drought Era" are Freddy Jackson, Kyle Williams, and maybe Lee Evans. London Fletcher a long shot.
tedstrong Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 In my opinion, consideration should go to Reggie McKenzie first, then Biscuit Bennett. Maybe Teddy Washington. Honestly I thought this was a joke. No offense, but I think that longevity of service to the team is part of the equation.

Honestly I thought this was a joke. No offense, but I think that longevity of service to the team is part of the equation. Longevity has no place in this discussion (with all due respect). That's like saying "he was greedy and wanted big money" should disqualify someone from consideration. Performance on the field while playing for the Bills is the only stat that matters and on a per capita basis, Orton was heads and shoulders above the other scrubs we've seen in the last 15 years. As such, he commands serious consideration, dare I say, respect.
BringBackFergy Posted September 27, 2017 Author Posted September 27, 2017 Wtf? Put down the booze Typical argument when it comes to Orton. Don't be a hater.
PromoTheRobot Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 Uncle Rico could throw a football up over that there mountain.
dwight in philly Posted September 27, 2017 Posted September 27, 2017 (edited) Why not? O J is there.. Orton hasn't been accused of any major crimes. Edited September 27, 2017 by dwight in philly
