    Orton

    I know we lost. But it's nice to see a real NFL QB standing in the pocket for a change.

    24/38 for 299. Rating 94.

    Box score for the New England Patriots vs. Buffalo Bills NFL game from October 12, 2014 on ESPN. Includes all passing, rushing and receiving stats.


    Wish we had a better o-line. Need guards.

    3 turnovers in the first half. Cost us the game.

        He's a lot better than what we had. If they could get a running game he may be good enough for a year or two.

          he gave the ball twice to the opposition and there were a couple of times he was oblivious of the pass rush. Nice numbers, ok, but not a good performance.

            While Orton won't get us to the Super Bowl, he can get us to the playoffs.

            Much better than watching E.J. struggle even if they are growing pains.

            Agree 100% on the O-line.

            I'm guessing we draft a QB next year.

              Would you have preferred EJ?

              The guard play is horrendous.

                I'm finding it infuriating they won't play the average Urbik over the lost Richardson or the bad Pears.

                  If that's how he's going to play going forward, put EJ back in. EJ is still young, whereas Orton is on his 5th team.

                    Agreed. He looked out of it in the first quarter and a half, and randomly in the 2nd half. A pass rush right up the middle that the guy had to run 10 yards to get to him, Orton never saw til the last second. Yeah he's better than what we had, and I like Orton, but he's a mediocre QB. Decent but not great. Good enough to get us to 8-8
                    My faith doesn’t make me perfect, it makes me forgiven.

                      The whole line has been putrid this year.

                        Orton played very well, in my opinion. He picked up a ton of 3rd and longs today.

                            No. God no. Never.

                            And, Orton is so much better than EJ will ever be.

                              Just like last week. I hope it's not a trend.
