If Tyrod could do all the things everyone is clamoring for him to do, he'd be the perfect QB and wouldn't have been sitting behind Flacco in Baltimore. He might very well be on his way to the Hall of Fame.
But, he has those limitations and we have to live with it. Having said that, here are a few truths that his detractors fail to see or acknowledge:
1. ALL QBS MISS OPEN RECEIVERS!! We only see the all-22 of our own guy. Not that Alex Smith is the gold standard, but he missed a wide open guy who could have walked into the endzone last night. It happens to everyone.
2. They are scoring points. This is always getting overlooked. Maybe they just need a big 45 point outing to get some more credit for that.
3. The Bills are a running offense by design and he's a big part of that. He's not supposed to get to 300 yards passing.
4. Jacksonville is actually a pretty decent defense and the o-line was awful in the first half.
5. Tyrod is unconventional. He doesn't fit the mold of the regular franchise QB. Guys like him can be though, but run into problems with injuries. It will take some creative coaching and some luck with him not getting hurt, but he can be a guy to build around. Ok, this is more of an opinion that truth, but still..
