Thank you. I'll wait.

There was another college QB who was drafted as a QB but was told he would make a better TE. Perhaps we learned our lesson when we neglected to sign him as a TE then...this is a makeup for their past oversight.

Howard - ya gotta ease up on the caps buddy. Captain Checkdown was the nickname for Trent Edwards. Tyrod has a tendency to checkdown quite a bit to his RB or TE so that's where the thread title came from.

This is a statement that pops up time after time on this board...I'm guilty of saying the same thing. Whether we win or lose...Tyrod typically plays poorly for 1/2 to 3/4 of the game and throws a few "bombs" or broken plays which gives us a false sense of security. It's the traditional 10-20 yd timing routes that we don't see a lot of that has me concerned.

Great use of challenge flag on the first down pass to Robinson. That was a pivotal 3rd and long and we needed to have that one come back. There wasn't much time to throw it. Rex done good. (No comment on the first challenge flag... )

This...in a nutshell. I love his ability to scamper and score points on his own, but better defenses will be able to catch him (we saw a glimpse of that yesterday with fast LB's). He needs to improve on the "traditional pocket passer" model which means he has to throw to a spot, trust that his receiver will be there, throw downfield for flags (he did that yesterday to Sammy and it worked) and improve accuracy (miss on O'Leary throw and checkdown to Clay). I like Tyrod as a person (hard worker, humble, quiet leader) but need to see much more development as a passing QB.

Absolutely!!

Raiders won Miami won Ravens won Stellers won

Raiders win....ugh

Agreed. I counted TT's seconds in the pocket...at one point it was 6 seconds (no lie)....and he scrambled for a gain of 3.

Agreed again. Guys say "Why are you here?" and it's because I love the team but get so !@#$ing pissed off at lost opportunities.

Agreed on all points. You can still be a fan of the Bills and want something better than TT.

Once again looking for someone else to do the hard work we should have done for ourselves.

Seriously - this team will get destroyed Round 1 of playoffs. Why even keep track of this nonsense?

#soft #literally

Dareus is only slotted to get 2 sacks per half. He met his quota. No reason to play any more.

So you're cool dominating half the time??

Bortles looks like an All Pro in this game.

Nick O'Leary needs to grow 15" damn it!!!

Lookin' good guys. I hope we win in an "unconventional" manner.

John from Hemet...calling John from Hemet San-O: TT is unconventional. Stop cherry picking stats.

John is my best advocate.

Have Fun and Go Bills!

Gugny's point (I believe) is that both Kelly and Romo played for GM's who were good at assembling a team and hiring qualified coaches, personnel, etc. Romo and his fanboys have been to the playoffs...have we?

We don't know what his reads are??? Seriously?? My labrador retriever has better vision than TT. Week after week I watch Ryan, Brady, Rivers and Breese throw to a spot and their receiver comes out of their break and the ball is there. Not so with TT...he waits until after the break to make sure the WR is wide open before letting go of the ball. He's worried about turning the ball over (maybe for salary incentives?) This delay in throwing the ball then converts into jittery feet, pressure and scrambling. Your word is "unconventional" I believe...I call it "unsustainable".
