Any chance they could pull a trade for a top pick this year?


- Sabresfan-365


Doubtful . Maybe Terry could buy someone's?

You can in the other football


I'm just curious what there plan is at that position. They're obviously too talented to tank and I don't know of any noteworthy QB's that are hitting free agency. It leads me to assume they'd have to trade for one somehow.

Yeah, it's a serious question.

Did you think Manuel was going to be the savior here?


They reached for him, and he rewarded them with sh!t play. Dumb as a stump. And as far as Marrone playing "not to lose", he's the one who told Whaley I'm putting Orton in, and it's my call. Sounds like the guy has a few stones to me.

And I never mentioned Hackett. He has to go.

The problem is Orton sucks too.

So you have a 2nd year player that they are now forced to keep, because they won't be the idiots that give up on a QB after 14 games.

And a below average Orton that is a journeyman for a reason. It's pretty frustrating considering the talent around the rest of the team

Winning with Orton and not with EJ, bottom line.

They are 5-3 with Orton. That pro-rates to 10-6.

Nuff said.

Neither one of them can beat a "good" team. Just saying.

He's 5-3. Two of them against the Jets, one against the Vikings, one where Detroit missed 3 field goals, and today.

He blew the Chiefs game, was pathetic against Miami, bad against New England.

We need better than both of them. Period

Like I said, hockey players who suck are complete waste of human beings.


Sabres are screwing this up because Teddy is coaching his ass off and has this collection of misfits believing in themselves. He should be fired.
We need another scandal to defocus this team...Gerbe42 .. You're good with photoshop...get pics of Kim naked in bed with Jeremy Jacobs.

- IonSabres

maybe youre thinking of 75pts. Although im a master at paint, ive admittedly only touched photoshop once for my senior thesis.

Not a playoff record in the AFC this year. And not the AFC East winning record.

As much as it seems I do, I don't hate Orton. It's just frustrating that we still haven't found a good QB yet. We should be better than 7-5 right now

I think I would have. I knew this defense was pretty good in camp. I did think EJ and the offense would be better though

I thought TWG said the November was the target month for the Myers trade. Hmmmm...

And that I can appreciate.

But that has nothing to do with Orton or the coaches.

I wouldn't even know where to begin with that, this off season. They're not bottoming out. They really have no trade chips (no 1st, Spiller not signed).

Is this a serious question?

This team has 12-4 or 13-3 talent everywhere but the QB position...You know the one we haven't figured out for what 15 years now.

We have an OC and a head coach that play not to lose rather than win.

- sbroads24

If Alex Smith, an average starter ran this team they are 9-3 tied for first

And that's why I'm annoyed. At least with EJ, there was a possibility of inprovment. With Orton you know what you have, and it's not that good either

Probably.

Not that I want Smith, but I think he's a notch above Orton which is a problem

Hoyer will be a free agent. Im guessing his time is up in cleveland after getting benched for manziel. Carolina most likely resigns cam. And thats about it for qbs.

Also, it appears the niners are going to look to trade harbaugh.
