Pathetic logic. Top 7 in scoring is better than good. Top 10 over 2 seasons is better than good. Of course we all want to be great, but we can be good en route to being great. Its not greatness or bust. The seawhawks were going to the playoffs with matt freaking hasselback before becoming great with Wilson. The Steelers were going to the playoffs with Kordell Stewart before becoming great with Big Ben, the ravens were going to the Super Bowl with Trent Dilfer before Flacco. The giants with collins before Eli. 5 years from now we'll be saying that the Texans were still getting by with Osweiler and Hoyer before landing their stud QB. We dont need to go into football purgatory before becoming "great". We're cutting off our nose to spite our face. Its sad.

Seriously. Might as well trade shady and hughes. By the time this team is "ready" these guys will be passed their prime.

Thats the thing though. We cant put all our eggs in the draft basket. There is no guarantee a team will trade with us. There are no guarantees in the draft for 100s of reasons.

Seriously. This is freaking depressing.

We were 7th leading into week 17. Would it be better? I dont know. Would it be near top 10? Highly likely. Its been top 10 for 2 years now. And no way we have more injuries at WR next year than we had this year

Oh my.

Yes. What im saying is that who cares about our failures 15-17yrs ago. They have no relevance now. Now we have a good offense and a below average defense. We're close. Stay the course on O. Improve the D.

Exactly. Dallas went 6-10, 8-8, 8-8, 8-8 before they finally got their **** together. That great record with the all mighty Romo thay everyone wants here. At 37yrs old now.

Exactly.

So to recap, Tyrod over the last two seasons had more TD's per game, less turnovers, a better completion %, a better QB rating than Big Ben's 5th and 6th years in the NFL; Tyrod's total yardage would've been right there with Big Ben too if he played 2 more games, since Big Ben had 2 more games played during that stretch.

Big Ben's 5th and 6th year combined stats: 7,812 total yards (rushing and passing); 7,629 passing; 47 total TD's; 37 turnovers; 62.6 completion %; 90.3 rating Tyrod Taylor: 7206 total yards, 6058 passing yards, 47 total tds, 37 passing tds, 12 ints, 94.5 rating, 62.7 comp % Tyrod played two fewer games*****

Compare Big Bens numbers his 5th and 6th yr in the NFL to TT's last two. Do it. Be surprised.

BAHAHAHA

No, he doesn't.

TT "only" had 23 TD's this year: that ranks him middle of the pack in the NFL for total TD's scored through 15 games. Not elite, certainly not bad, definitely not worth you qualifying it with "only". You saying EJ "almost averaged" as much is laughable, why even go there?. If being top ten in scoring over a 2 year span can be done by "anyone", when was the last time the Bills ranked top 10 in scoring over a two year period? 20 years ago? Jim Kelly era? Were you even born yet?

L. M. A. O.

Yeh. Like most of us have been saying. This has been one of the weirdest off seasons so far for the Bills. I have to admit the level of noise and conflicting reports is astounding.

How can they not afford it? The skins cap situation is excellent.

I like you just dont get it. Whaley spent 5 minutes talking abouy how "close" we are. How we were almost there vs the Seahawks and the Raiders (and I agree actually). So logically being that close we blow everything up? Billsy.

Nobody does trash like the NY POST

unless we're trading for Romo, this is a huge mistake. We have a good offense. Fix the defense. No need to blow everything up.

No.

I havent given up on Cardale at all but what is there to say? Wasnt active all year until week 17 and then week 17 he plays bc EJ has an abomination of a game. Cardale throws 11 passes vs a defense that mailed it in about 8 weeks ago. Not much to say at all other than we'll see. Im fine with going into next season with Cardale as the backup (competing for starting job).

I just want to know the following? How can some Bills fans have so much hatred towards a GM that has never had full authority during his time here? Breaking it down at the basic level, why is everyone going crazy? Rex was fired. Thats a good thing. Great guy, but it didnt work. TT not playing the final week and avoiding further injury. Thats a good thing. EJ showing he doesnt deserve to be on the Bills. Thats a good thing. TT getting surgery ASAP. Thats a good thing. im actually feeling pretty good right now and excited to see who we'll hire at HC and how we'll fix the defense. The over-analysis of what people said and what they really meant by it is at an all-time level of insanity on here.

Its nobody's fault imo. Tt played his ass off and got injured. The Bills werent 100% sold on TT but liked him enough to offer him this team friendly deal. Contrary to what people want to complain about is that it IS team friendly. The injury clause secures TT personally in case they cut him and he cant pass a physical for another team. Everyone wins.
