That's not the correct way to comment on HB. How will you
ever start an argument with that ? You are going to confuse
everyone.

You bring up good points.

What I find funny is that Bills nation would be elated if EJ would produce a year like Fitzpatrick had when he was the full time starter here.

Minus the 4th quarter turnovers, if he threw for 3000+ and 20 TD"s in his 2nd pro season It would be a good improvement

that was his best pass of the night

3 balls batted down, I found disturbing


reminded me of when flutie played

- homiedclown


This is also on the o-line. Day one you are taught to keep arms down of the d-line. If they get their arms up, you take their feet out. 2 of the batted balls the o-linemen disengaged from the d-lineman. allowing him to read the QB

I am not putting too much stock into 10 plays. Let him play an entire quarter and then an entire half the next 2 games. Maybe then we can make an assessment. Even after that I think it is way too soon to close the book.

This is Hockeybuzz. I thought I didn't have to explain anything. Just disagree with everybody.

I'm not either, but it is a process indicator. Ej is easy to read? And why only 10 plays? Sheesh, Marrone can be disappointed all he wants but EJ isn't going to get better sitting on is butt watching Tuel take over the game

Sure, but other teams sometimes just make good plays.

The 3rd batted ball was bad.

I have no definitive opinion either way yet

- sbroads24



What is this thing you name: "Definitive Opinion?" I have heard of it spoken in other places, with other unfamiliar phrases like "well reasoned," "factually supported," and "logically compelling."

This would make a great bet:

Who has a better year as a starter in 2014. Ej or Ryan.

Recent Tweet by Tim Grahm suggests Bon Jovi broke the non-disclosure agreement with that letter.

So were a lot of starting NFL QB's. With the exception of Luck/RG3 they all have flaws.

Dalton has a weak arm, Flacco is a statue, Tannehill was supposed to be a project.

Tim freaking Tebow won a playoff game, Manuel will absolutely improve. It's asinine to think otherwise IMO.

This isn't a 28 year old Ryan Fitzpatrick that we are praying just all of the sudden gets it, it's a prototypical 6'5 strong arm QB that has accuracy issues.

- sbroads24


Well yes, its fairly safe to say he will improve, but again I just don't think its gonna be enough to make us good. I realize he has all of 10 games under his belt, but I just don't see him being a solid QB in a pass happy league.

Like i said last night i see him as another tarvaris jackson.

Who knows what the bills will do maybe they will trade Both Dareus and CJ and get a 1st and a 2nd for both and we could get our QB next year

Seattle beat the most pass happy team in the SB by managing the game and having a great defense.

I agree passing is more important than ever but he doesn't need to be Aaron Rodgers, he just needs to make a few throws a game. This team has players that can break big gains with the ball in their hands.

Yes and no.


He was able to fulfill a life long dream and play in the NHL.

His long term health is much more important.

I'd take a guess the Giants will still pay him what is owed.


He seems to have a good head on his shoulders.

Not sure if anyone here has seen this yet so I figured I would share.
The coaching staff has been finalized.
