The Buffalo Bills are going to make the move at the quarterback position and hand over the starting job to Kyle Orton. EJ Manuel opened up the season with a pair of wins and had the hopes rolling for Bills fans, but after a couple of losses , the team is moving with the veteran at the position.

That is one quick trigger in Buffalo. In Manuel’s first 3 games of the season, he had a pair of turnovers. One interception and a fumble. Against the Houston Texans this weekend, he threw another pair of interceptions and was dejected after the game.
He threw an interception on the potential winning drive and took a beating against the Texans. He was hit 16 times by the Texans and J.J. Watt was all over him.
Manuel took a confidence hit after the game. It might be a nice time to go with the veteran Orton with Manuel shaken.
