The best chance to finish 9-7. Hooray what a moral victory for us. He fell short like most bad QB 's do.

Yep 9-7 better then what would have been with the cripple in as QB.

Awesome, give him a retirement BJ then

If they are smart they will keep Hodgson as far away from either McDavid, Eichel or Reinhart as possible. Hodgson is done, he needs to go.
- SABRES 89

If McEichel are as good as we all hope they are, a guy like Hodgson playing with them won't hurt them.

U don't think Hodgson's stats will improve next year & we can actually get some value for him in a trade?
Assuming the Girgensons line stays in tact,
Hodgson will be playing wing with either Reinhart or McDavid/Eichel
Seems to me like his stats would def improve
- jdfitz77

I hope so. Because if they dont, he's useless AND un tradeable!
He played fine with Vanek/Pommenville. its just when we took away linemates with any semblance of skill, his play also went downhill.

Sure it will, Hodgson is a glider he needs to go.

There is something to be said for striving for something better than mediocrity.

Erect a statue? Write a song?

Something to honor the great Kyle Orton.....

I'll leave that to you with Myers when they ship his ass out.

Andy Dalton is mediocre. Orton and EJ are below that

If by "you too" you mean, "you want a championship caliber quarterback on your football team" then yes, "me too".

It's not that hard.

Won;t get one until the fan owner we have gets a football guy in here to tell him what to do, if he's smart he will listen to Ryan and not Whaley.

It's not that hard.

for you it is

You have to agree though, that even though Orton ended up being no good, we wouldn't have won some of those 7 games without him. He made many savvy veteran throws that EJ never would/could have.

And with Ryan reporting directly to Terry, he just might listen.

My point but he can't seem to figure that out.

That's just it though. The only thing that won those games really was "veteran experience". It wasn't superior talent.

Ultimately, sbroads is right, this team needs far, far better than either Manuel or Orton for this team to actually do something worth writing home about.

But he still won 7 games regardless, something that EJ can't do or he wouldn't have been benched.
