    Marrone said they are amping up EJ, whatever that means.

    I think if it goes well, he could possibly play against the Chiefs.

    Well I think if he was playing against the Chiefs, we would already know.

    Why let the Chiefs know that until the Bills are forced to do so?

    Let the Chiefs think they will be facing Thad.

    I think it is doubtful EJ plays against the Chiefs, but you never know.

    Re: When does EJ get back on the practice field?

    ...“He will be working extremely hard this week,” said Marrone. “I can’t answer the question is he going to be practicing or not. I don’t want to get into that. [I]He’s going to be working extremely hard to a level of a great stage of where we should be.[/I]"

    ROFL, WTF does that mean!

    Although I like Thad.
    He'll never get a fair shot from the haters.
    Reminds me of Fred Jackson vs Lynch or Fred Jackson vs CJ Spiller all over again.

    Thad's best hope is that the Bills don't find a better back up than him in the offseason.

    Re: When does EJ get back on the practice field?

    Thad is an excellent backup but his accuracy is just not not good enough to win consistently. EJ needs better accuracy as well but being 6'5 or 6'6 helps cover off his weakness a bit.

    Manuel is needed to beat the Chiefs as is a healthy Johnson and Spiller. Our defense can have a good game against Smith.

    That would be a change. They've been blabbing all season long about who starts. A point I've mentioned several times, btw.

    It doesn't rise to their level of telling the rest of the NFL who they covet with their #1 pick the past several years, though. How maddening...

    Re: When does EJ get back on the practice field?

    This thursday will be 4 weeks since the hit. It was billed as a 4-6 week injury. Then Marrone came out and said EJ was "ahead of schedule". So do the math. He should be back soon. I think Pitt is the game to mark. Doubt he's back this week.

    Im not saying short QBs aren't accurate. I'm saying height can help a less accurate QB see the field better. Brees has better mechanics than any QB in the league apart from Manning so height is irrelevant.

    Re: When does EJ get back on the practice field?

    What does rushing him back accomplish ? Bills rebuilding and not a playoff team.

    Long term. Mend completely.

    I agree he should not come back if not fully healed, but NOBODY knows this team is not a playoff team yet.

    If Manuel isn't taking snaps tomorrow there is no way in hell he's on the field against KC Sunday.

    I don't think we will see EJ back in the line up until after the bye week.
