    Ej is on this roster because he's more expensive to dump than to keep. This is his last year and hopefully we don't need to use him. I also think you need back ups who fit your starters offense. It's only fair to the rest of the team. Foles may be better than EJ, I would never debate otherwise, but I don't see the coast of dumping ej worth it

      When you have 6 RB's, roster spots become a premium (Even failed QB ones).

        This. He would be a good addition to our offense as a back-up.

          Seems like it at this point.

          Exactly why we need to see more from Taylor.

            Simple question, who would you rather starting if Tyrod goes down, Foles or EJ.

            Enough said.

              Vic Carucci reporting Bills not interested in Foles.

              Whaley just can't get over his EJ f-up.
              Better hope Tyrod doesn't get hurt or Whaley will be looking for a job come January.

                  This opinion remains the same whether we have EJ or Foles as a backup. We're more than likely doomed if we have to use either of them.

                    Foles is functional, he has proven that already in this league.

                    EJ has proven we have to overcome his play to have any chance of winning.

                      Foles is too white maybe.

                        Foles has had bad games just like EJ. He had a nice 3 INT game in a blowout against Cincy and a 4 INT, 140 yard showing against the Packers this past year. His team couldn't overcome him just like we couldn't overcome EJ in the Jacksonville game. I'm assuming that's the game you're talking about...it's the game everyone talks about.

                          Get him.

                          He's better than EJ. Well almost anyone is but yeah by all means lets do it. I don't ever wanna see 3 play a down for my team.

                          Foles may not be a star but he's at least proven to be serviceable. He's had ****ty games for sure but he's also had good ones. EJ's best game remains his 1st vs the Pats ages ago. Everything else has been close to unwatchable.

                              Can't get around the obvious. Besides not being any good, Foles doesn't fit the offense anyway. Pretty odd for anyone to think players are plug and play wherever, ignoring that they just aren't.

                                Where exactly does EJ fit ?
                                He has never played well when called upon.
