9-7 but we make the playoffs.

9-7

10-6 .... we win the last game EJ played. In fact...Marrone should be canned for not pulling the trigger at halftime of that game then pulling it the following day.

Considering Orton's game was on a downward trajectory over the season, I don't know that starting him earlier necessarily improves our record.

I guess the real question is if Orton is going to end up the starter next season.

By all accounts Marrone never was an EJ believer and probably would have liked to go to Orton sooner. The EJ lover would be Whaley. Hence the reported tension between the two.

Other teams would have found his weaknesses (Immobility) 4 games sooner.

Remember, the 2014 Bills were one Detroit FG kicker away from an 8 - 8 record anyway.

Really ? You actually think playing EJ 16 games they would have won 9 games ?

I say with Orton from opening day they win ten games and make the play-offs.

And Orton didn't have a pre-season because they were wasting time with EJ.

I have no doubt that Marrone/Whaley blowup at the end of camp was over playing EJ.

You bet your ass.

Skooby, skooby, skooby... I thought you learned your lesson.
You bet your ass.

Looking back if Orton beat KC & the Raiders, the Bills go to the playoffs.

Thank You!!! We had 3 games we could of won with better QB play and the great Kyle Orton was QB in 2 of those 3. The love he gets on this board is baffling!

[Novacane]

Forgot about Denver and the game in Miami. Could of won those with better QB play as well. I guess Orton would of won those games if he had started earlier :rolleyes:

C,mon you all seen the games.

Brown fumbles at the goal line, that games over.

Graham gets beat 3rd and 21 or they end up winning there also.
