I think Orton was bad for most of his time with the Bills except for two big games against the NYJ.  He was terrible against MIA, GB, CLE, and DEN in the stretch run of 2014.

The final drive against Minnesota he led that year was pretty sweet.

It was. I'll give him that with the nice TD to Sammy and the miracle conversion before that.  He still had quite a few stinkers.

48 second mark.  THAT'S how you play QB!

Best single season from a QB was Bledsoe's first year but longevity and consistency I have Tyrod #1 and Fitz #2. I have the gap closer than some. 

 

None of the QB play has been good enough.

How can anyone read that list and not want to either cry or fall asleep from boredom?

Its crazy that Tyrod, Fitz and Bledsoe are so close in YPG when Tyrod is always being bashed because he doesn't put up big yardage totals...

Tyrod is worse in 2/3 of your criteria, but gets ranked #1?

 

Is this a troll attempt?

Shocking to me that some people can watch this and think he has a chance here.  KO getting his head taken off for no reason could've doomed the year.

Best seasons go to Bledsoe, Orton, Fitz. Hard to choose which of them was the best because Bledsoe played so bad the following season he was run out of town, Orton only played the 1 season then decided he would rather retire than come back, and Fitz just wasn't good enough to be a starter. If you think Tyrod was good then you need to factor in his running. That's not a QB. I'm ranking them as far as actually being able to throw a football

 

I have this long-lasting vision of Bledsoe "The Statue" standing in the pocket and then one, two, three... defenders getting a hold of him and they can't get him down and then the whistle blows.

It's 100% true.  Orton dragged that 2014 offense to 18th in points.  If TT was their QB, they might have been the worst offense in the NFL.

Tyrod took the same offense to top 10 twice. giphy.gif

Wins (percentage) trumps all...his GWD is one away from Fitz in 11 less games & tied with Drew and also a better completion pct., as well... 

 

Yeah, I have him as the best of those three listed during the drought.

You and I have very different opinions of "same."

 

Shady, Harvin, Clay, Incognito, Karlos, Gillislee.

 

Versus Freddy's corpse, Spills, Urbik, Bryce Brown, Scott Chandler etc.

 

Yes, the exact same personnel.  Also TT got them to 12th in points that year.  All it took was a future HoF RB, the highest paid UFA TE, a Pro Bowl G, and an OROY candidate to get the Bills offense to move up 6 spots.  Thank God for Tyrod!

That's true!  

 

Orton's/EJ's passing offenses - 18th in yards, 15th in TD's

 

Tyrod's/EJ's passing offenses - 28th in yards, 20th in TD's

 

Tyrod saved the offense!

Just take those L’s you are tossing around. It’s Tyrod and it’s not close. He WON. That’s all that matters. I actually like Orton but there isn’t a football guy in the league that would say Orton over TT. I know that’s what you want to be reality because it would give a boost to your posting history but it just isn’t reality.

 

Also, don’t try to drop some played out .gif passing it off as original. Swallow those L’s and we can talk tomorrow. The Pats lost!!

It took him three seasons to win as much as the 2014 Bills.  I know we're all celebrating the Pats loss, but let this be a lesson to the kids.  Don't drink and post.

 

Also, I followed up your unoriginal .gif with one of my own.  Or did you pop in your Entourage DVD to make that one just now?

He had a winning record in his first 2 seasons too. You can look it up, it’s true. 

 

You posted the stupid “l” .gif. That is so played out. Find something original!!
