ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. - Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone benched starting quarterback EJ Manuel on Monday, one day after the former first-round draft pick completed less than half his passes and threw two interceptions in a loss to Houston. Marrone said Kyle Orton will start Sundays game against the Detroit Lions. The Bills signed Orton on Aug. 30 to back up Manuel. Manuel was the Bills first-round draft pick in 2013 and had started 14 games over the past two seasons. He had a season-low quarterback rating of 59.4 and threw an interception to J.J. Watt that was returned for a momentum-changing touchdown Sunday during the Bills 23-17 loss. Manuel has completed just 58 per cent of his passes for Buffalo (2-2) through four games this year. Orton, a nine-year NFL veteran, spent the past two seasons in Dallas before being cut by the Cowboys in mid-July after he skipped the teams off-season workouts amid reports that he was considering retirement. While Manuel has size and mobility, his decision-making and leadership have been questioned. He acknowledged needing better command of the offence days before the season opener, and understood that he had plenty to prove in showing hes capable of being a bona fide starter. Manuel also faced injury issues last year that hampered his development. He missed six regular season games and went 4-6 in 10 starts. Manuel got off to an encouraging start in helping the Bills open with two wins this year. The familiar troubles, however, popped up in Buffalos past two losses. The Bills invested heavily to improve their offence this season in order to give Manuel every chance to succeed. It made its biggest splash in the draft when it traded next years first-round selection to move up five spots and select dynamic receiver Sammy Watkins with the No. 4 pick. The Bills also used three of its seven selections on offensive linemen, and acquired wide receiver Mike Williams in a trade with Tampa Bay. Marrone said as Orton began practicing with the team that the Bills first targeted Orton early in training camp as a backup, saying the need for a contringency plan emerged when former backups Thad Lewis and Jeff Tuel didnt show enough progress.

Allardyce will lead England into their qualification campaign for the 2018 World Cup in Russia on the back of a dispiriting Euro 2016 tournament, which saw Roy Hodgsons young side crash out in an embarrassing 2-1 defeat to Iceland.

We felt it was important to have an English manager in charge of the England team.We wanted to join up St Georges Park and make sure the development teams have a route through to the senior team. There is lots of innovation around sports psychology, strength and conditioning, nutrition and Sam has a track record of buying into all of those things and fully utilising them around all his teams.He also rejected accusations that Allardyces style of football would be at odds with that of Englands. There is a little bit of a misnomer about Sams style, he said. At Bolton he played some super stuff, at Sunderland with Jermain Defoe up front, hes hardly a great big target man, so hes a good coach and good coaches get the best out of players they have at their disposal.
