    Are you blind?

        They are in a bad spot.
        Play EJ = no playoffs and you're fired.
        Play Orton = you blew it with EJ and so you're fired.
        Sort of like the Fitz dilemma all over again.

          Sad but true. Still, I'd like to see it just to try.

            It's the price you pay for drafting a total reach, then making matters worse by spending next year's number one and this year's number one on a WR when you have a crappy QB.

            They gambled, they lost. Now they pay.

                Putting all their chips on the EJ square was pretty foolhardy.
                Its a shame really. This is a pretty talented team.

                  ^ Good stat line example of why stats don't tell the whole story, especially for QBs. Not horrible numbers but if you watched the game, you would know that EJ was beyond horrible.

                    No. Couple more games like this and continuing to play him will be impossible. JMO.

                      One loss is not good enough and can be forgivable, still only one almost turnover and a few bad passes. I am still not convinced St. Kyle could have done better with this O Line.

                        ^ this is just a ridiculous comment.

                        It's EJ fault. It always is. He's scared to throw the ball. The situation has to be perfect in his mind in order for him to throw a pass and when it is, he drills open receivers in the feet. He floats the ball 6 feet above his intended target. He had a million chances to make a play and he just couldn't. He must be benched.

                            He's definitely playing like ****, but it's too early to give up on the guy. I still maintain that the Bills completely screwed up the entire process of growing a young QB.
