Mikey Mo has put all Bills QB throws game by game this season. Here are week 11 and 10.

By far, week 11 EJ has a lot more consistent quality throws in terms of decision and mechanics. Still a few bad ones, including a near pick6 which is really bad.
The biggest thing I saw compared to the previous week is he truely slowed down in passing situations, not rushing throws as much.
I hope his foot work improves but we may never get to see EJ consistently delivering balls in perfect form like a Brady or Rodgers. It just does not come natural when he moves around in the pocket where he can throw on a dime in the prototypical form. But he has an arm that he gets away with throwing off back foot, in half steps, etc. I guess people say he resembles Roethlisberger in that sense, though I have to say Roethlisberger is way better in accuracy department in throws under those circumstances.
Lastly I gotta mention Goodwin. I'm really happy to see he's not a one trick pony as people projected (which Graham looks to be) and he may be better than Lee Evans in every area in a short period of time. I'm convinced he should play outside. Having seen him catching a few long TDs now, I'd say he has what other top small WRs in the NFL have what guys like Graham does not - 2nd/3rd gear in top flight. Graham can get on top speed and go straight. Goodwin can do that too but when the ball is in the air and he locates its path, he has another gear to separate from whoever with him. I'd not put him in the slot where he has to take a lot of shots from safeties. For him, the off season strengthening program should be geared towards injury prevention from hits he would take (i.e., hard landing etc.).
