In 11-on-11 to start practice, Manuel (who was not facing the Bills starting DL, more on that below), didn’t throw an incompletion in five pass attempts. And all were of different varieties. Short, long, crossing, etc.. He hit Marquise Goodwin for a deep TD down the right sideline. Goodwin beat Ron Brooks on the play.

All of Mike Rodak's tweets seem to agree that EJ looked pretty sharp and Cassel continues to struggle.

So I guess this wraps it up, EJ is the starter

I wouldn't pencil in anyone without pads on, especially this early in the game.

None of Buffalo’s quarterbacks faced the Bills starting defensive line in team work on Thursday. Ryan stated that was by design so the offensive units could move the ball a bit more effectively. Still, he liked what he saw from Manuel in the final minicamp practice.
“He has had some moments,” said Ryan. “I thought EJ did well, he threw the touchdown pass in the two minute. Kind of looked a little watered down there on defense, but it was good. It was great to see. He looked pretty good and he had some nice plays.”

The Bills starting Defense is going to make a lot of GOOD QB's look MEDIOCRE next season.

Matt Cassel and Tyrod Taylor were unable to convert their two minute drives into points. Both of their drives finished with turnovers on interceptions by Ross Cockrell andMario Butler.

Once again, none of the QB's faced the starting defense, and they all sucked except for EJ. So why is the focus only that he didnt play against them.

A positive article about Manuel? That'll piss some people off.

Re: EJ Wins Day 3 (Nobody won day 2)

Regardless, I'm pulling for EJ. He still has the highest ceiling of the guys we have (Taylor was horrid in college and he was drafted in the 6th or whatever for a reason) and him playing well and out right winning the starting job is good for us if he remotely starts to "get it".

Re: EJ Wins Day 3 (Nobody won day 2)

Good for EJ. He's still not gonna start come September. Book it

Re: EJ Wins Day 3 (Nobody won day 2)

EJ is the only QB on the roster with upside, so I'm hoping he wins the competition and either goes out and lights the league on fire helping the Bills to the playoffs - so that everyone will know that QB position is something that doesn't need to be addressed for a while....OR....he wins the competition, completely bombs out and makes the franchise realize that priority one this offseason is drafting another QB.

A middling year where he shows few signs and a lot of garbage, which is about what he's done so far here, leaves another year of allowing him to play and setting the franchise back another season from getting the necessary improvement in place to become a playoff, let alone championship, caliber team.

Re: EJ Wins Day 3 (Nobody won day 2)

100% agree... If he wins the competition, I need to see >60%, >3,5600 yards, >20 TD's, <10 turnovers or I go into next season looing a all costs

It's funny how none of it matters when they suck, but the EJ rah-rah crowd comes out and tells us it does when he has an early summer day in shorts where he completed a couple of passes.
