The Wiz Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 whoa - blast from the past no lie, I think he just dug a hole and buried himself after that London game.
YoloinOhio Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 no lie, I think he just dug a hole and buried himself after that London game.rightfully so!
Kelly the Dog Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 I thought so, too. He looked better than I'd ever seen him. Even his interception wasn't a bad throw - reasonably accurate, and he gave his receiver a good chance to make a play on the ball. Plus they had to make a play to score, and he was throwing it up to Amari Cooper. That wasn't a terrible pass at all. The defender made a stud play. Plus he had a TD that was a clear drop, and he had another great pass that could have been a TD but WR didn't hang on. He did well. The one thing he didn't do was have game awareness that cost two five yard penalties but sometimes the plays don't come in quick or guys don't get lined up right. Those looked like his fault though. He threw a lot of good balls.
nucci Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 I still cant fathom how he is able to occupy a job in the NFL. I also wouldnt be surprised if he and St. Doug were more than co-workers. Have you seen the QBs in this league? Brandon Weeden was just signed
The Wiz Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 rightfully so!I did my best with him to try and pump the brakes but he was too far gone.
thenorthremembers Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 When did 6.2 yards an attempt, 106 yrds no touchdowns and a pick become good for a quarterback?
simool Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Lets hope he does not turn into Daryle Lamonica...
Andrew Son Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 When did 6.2 yards an attempt, 106 yrds no touchdowns and a pick become good for a quarterback? It is good..... for EJ
Dr. Who Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 I hope EJ plays well, unless he is playing against us. From the little I've seen in pre-season and when he came in for Carr last week, he looks more relaxed and has played reasonably well.
4merper4mer Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 rightfully so! Not really. We ended up with the lead and the Rex system blew yet another game. The refs helped too.
thebandit27 Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 He didn't have Cooper/Crabtree/Cook, but he did have Watkins/Woods/Clay. I like EJ a lot; good kid that worked hard. He's simply not a good enough passer to be an NFL starter.
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Former Bill Lee Smith (and current teamate of Manuel in Oakland) pumping him up now that he's starting again. I really hope he starts against the Bills. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000856954/article/raiders-te-ej-manuel-didnt-have-what-he-has-now?campaign=Twitter_atn I see you found my post and started a thread . What was wrong with the EJ Raiders thread?
4_kidd_4 Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Remember when Lee Smith jumped into the stands after a TD and nobody caught him?
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 What if the Bills lose to EJ and Oakland? I expect this place to be broken from all the posts Haters gotta hate. Trolls gotta Troll.
thebandit27 Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Remember when Lee Smith jumped into the stands after a TD and nobody caught him? I remember when Lee Smith tripped over the 2-yard line against Baltimore and cost EJ a TD pass...
SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 When did 6.2 yards an attempt, 106 yrds no touchdowns and a pick become good for a quarterback? Are you talking about the 8 of 9 passes in that final drive that had a hail mary pass fail INT?
Andrew Son Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Remember when Lee Smith jumped into the stands after a TD and nobody caught him? Is a better question
ChanOverChin Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 EJ is definitely a great guy. However, as an NFL QB he has poor mechanics. He short arms the ball, he doesn't always step towards the target, and he quivers in the face of a strong pass rush.
YoloinOhio Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Is a better questionJim Dray never really felt the same. Those were some big shoes to fill.
Seasons1992 Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 I actually wouldn't be surprised if Manuel lights it up this week against the Ravens in a home game. Some Oakland fans will probably believe they have a legit QB controversy on their hands. Yeaaaaahhhh.....I went ahead and took the Ravens. I have inside intel on EJ.......
