Kyle Orton has been named the Bills' new starting quarterback.

Wow, that won't help at all

They paid him Big Bucks to un-retire and I do see it as a bump for Watkins. Over all though it doesn't help the franchise get any better for the long run.

So the Bills move off their young QB who hasn't looked awful while the Jets roll with their piece of junk and it takes an injury to get the Bucs off of theirs.

New ownership, look for change in coach and GM as well. They will blame the mess on old regime and build it as they will.

Say goodbye to Spiller as well. And a few other older player that will want too much money. I even wonder if they will pay the extension they did for Jackson.

Kind of early for this call to me even though EJ does not seem to progress to much but Orton is definitely not the future imo or much of an improvement if they are thinking of winning games.

Sadly, I happen to think if he had been given more time to learn, and a REAL off. line, he would have been fine. One reason I was shocked they took him in first round rather than 2nd where they had the excuse to develop him.

Same concern I have with Carr and Bortles, both of them could be solid Qbs, if the team would fix the line and give them talent to work with, rather than set them in front of the cannons and say save us.
