For free of course. PM me if you want them, unless you are going to to try to sell them. In that case shame on you. Go Bills!

Welp. Three guys don't like a thread that is over 5 pages. Better shut it down mods. I'll never understand people taking shots at threads they're not into. Why not just move on? Yet you read 16 posts before you came to someone who you agreed with on this, odd. Why dive that deep if its something your not intersted in?

So on the Bills Mafia Facebook page somebody posted a recent pic of themselves with Tyrod Taylor. I commented on how I appreciated his time here, wished him the best and was thankful he was a part of the end of the drought. Immediately some one commented “you mean Andy Dalton”. This turned into a back and forth where the other Bills fan went on to say how Tyrod was never clutch and proceeded to trash him. In fact I was surprised by the amount of negative comments toward him from other posters (probably 60/40 good comments but still a lot of negativity) and it got me to thinking what is Tyrod’s legacy here in Buffalo? Obviously, he is no Jim Kelly, Jack Kemp or even Joe Ferguson and most recently the savior Josh. But to think of him as a bad player or to lump him with the likes Trent Edwards, EJ Manuel and Todd Collins seems ridiculous too me. So what group would you include him in, again based on legacy? He only spent three years here throwing 51 touchdowns and 16 interceptions. Compare that to Drew Bledsoe’s 55 and 43 also in a 3 year span or Fitz’s 80 and 64 in 4 years and he really isn’t all that far behind. In fact way behind on interceptions (as maddening as the checkdowns could be) But how would we compare him to those two as a Buffalo Bill? We all LOVE Fitz, his personality and how he’s stood by Buffalo. Bledsoe had one fantastic and fun year here before fizzling out fast. Is there a better QB to compare him too statistically and success wise over a comprable span with the Bills? Tyrod was a gutsy player that, like so many others during and before the drought had NOTHING around him. I remember a specific 3rd and 27 type play against the Titans where he ran for the first down before being horse collard into an injury at the plays end. Dude gave it his all. Is it fair to say his legacy is equal to Fitz when you consider the teams oh so modest success in his last year? Im interested in what others might think. How you will remember him and his tenure as a Bills quarterback ? With all that said thankfully those days are all behind us now. We have a stud QB and Super Bowl aspirations. However I’ve always been a Bills fan and I remember Tyrod’s time here fondly in context. Maybe I’m way off? Does the recent success distort the memories of those darker times? Do you have any particulallry good or bad Tyrod Buffalo Bill memories? Go Bills!

Titans. Colts always seem on the verge of something better but then choke it away (both Tenn games last year and the Jags game with the playoffs on the line. Heck, they had us in a tough situation in the playoffs the previous season)

Random Bills’ Games Stuck in the Memory Bank
Bills fan since 87 replied to WotAGuy's topic in The Stadium Wall
There was a game early in 1989 where we beat the Oilers in Houston 47-41 in OT. Crazy back and forth game in which we were hosed on multiple calls. So much so there was a spoof on Saturday Night Live the following week with John Goodman on the refs who called the game. I remember watching this game on a small black and white TV in our kitchen. Affraid to go to the living room or i'd jinx the Bills. I would have been 12 I think. 88 made me a fan, but 89 was the first season I recall vividly. Damn Ronnie Harmon... https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/198909240oti.htm -
