Amen....but, I am already dropping my season ticket....so, I can't vote again with my feet!

Ahhh......... 399 points is not failing to move the offense.....the chains moved plenty this year. That is 25 points a game....with a bad D that got very few turnovers.

I am dumping my season tickets, no more money for this franchise from me.

This

A stud receiver???? Well, not this year. A stud who couldn't do the cut moves because it hurt to much.....and, likely, should not have been out there at all. He wasn't healthy, and A Lynn knew it. He did come back and play with the pain, but his best moves were not available. So, the stud was really more average when he was on the field at all. So, the targeting arguments do not apply imho.

In the end, cap management and the Bills stragedy to spend the cap to deliver a playoff team is flawed. Whaley, it seems, believes in cheap (not great) QB's and putting the money in the D line, and apparently CB's (if he pays gilmore)and perhaps running back. EJ can't play...maybe whaley will sign him for the vet minimum.....currently looking for a HC who will agee with that. Now, Lynn has seen EJ in action, and I expect that we won't see both back. Lynn will be HC with no EJ....or new HC, and miracle of miracles, the new coach wants to give EJ another shot. EJ's next shot should be the arena league, if that is still around. He needs to follow the JP Losman model.....of course, JP never played another NFL down after leaving the Bills (yes, he was on a couple of rosters for a few weeks.) I think Whaley is wrong to toss TT...maybe he wants him to resign for less bucks, but, who exactly wrote this current contract that the Bills want to use to dump him? Whaley put the bills in this situation. TT is the best QB in ten years....and, he is developing. Cousins is coming on in his fourth or fifth year....his fourth playing I think. (sat behind RG3 for first year) TT sat for 4 years at Ravens, and now two on the field. TT will sign elsewhere, and untimately show that Whaley is wrong letting him go.

Amen

Whaley=Regier 2.0

Bills 2016 passing game was designed to go outside the hash marks (source A Lynn) So, TT worked in an O designed to throw to a limited part of the field, and to throw less than almost all the other QB's. That was the design of the O......TT didn't throw over the middle much....HE WASN"T SUPPOSED TO!!! Need a new O coordinator with a new O, and TT will be just fine. I am all for paying TT the money and getting a better modern O in place. If Bills dump TT...well, he will get his money elsewhere. Now, he has a good contract here, but, he CAN get one elsewhere. (at least imho)

Actually Nate Hackett was doing that......that year I recall he did some fancy thing like forming a corp, and selling shares in his future income stream. He did this ala Robert Griffin III Not sure how that is coming out for EJ........but could not be good for those who bought the shares.

All this QB shopping is interesting....but, the cap causes another big decision....do you pay the QB (TT, Bradford, whoever) or, do you pay gilmore the CB big bucks.....likelly can;t afford both. I would dump the CB and pay a good QB. (TT my choice, but whoever)

Not an impossible scenerio imho

IMHO, the only good thing REX did at Buffalo was bringing in TT. I favor his retention. This franchise is seriously disfunctional, and I don't doubt they could make a bad decision wrt to Tyrod. TT will come out OK, however, he will start somewhere in the NFL next year, and make his 15-20mil/year.

Dream on....EJ was always a character guy, but still the deer in the headlights guy when the game speeds up. And, although his arm is strong, it is inaccurate. Sammy will go nuts if EJ stays. EJ cannot throw a long accurate ball like TT. EJ has to be gone.......why isn't Cardale ready to get a development game in........did somebody spend a fourth on a guy who could not get ready to play a game after a year on the roster? Really....that is administrative incompetance. Probabily the same administration that drafted a #1 with a bad shoulder, and a #2 with a bad knee.....

this is correct imho

I think TT is at least the intermediate answer..next 3-4 year...at QB. If Bills let him go, he will start somewhere else in the league next year and do just fine. This is about cap money imho, not TT's ability to improve and be an NFL starting QB. And, the cap is whaley's mess.

Actually, we know EJ is not worth keeping. Starting EJ is an admission that Cardale, after a full year on the roster, is not yet capable of playing an NFL game. THAT is an inditement of Whaleys draft for Cardale. Seems to me Cardale should be ready for a developmental game...and if not, xxxxx!!! Why was he, drafted at all then?

Yes, this is correct. Pettine was a high caliber guy, but his D had some of the same problems that Rex D does....as, it was basically the same D....a 3x4.....Schwartz came in and did a much better job with the same talent in the 4-3. So, this comment is dead on correct.

If the injury clause is the reason....to start another QB...OK, then Cardale. EJ is never anything but a backup.....an audition...for what? Whaley is a problem....has to go also. If TT is let go , he will land elsewhere and get into the playoffs with another team....don't cry for TT...cry for Bills fans. I am dumping my season tickets if I see EJ Sunday. I could support giving Cardale a game (sunday) to help him for the future. But, EJ, stupid stupid stupid. I have no ill will for EJ, I just want him gone gone gone!

Lynn has done a great job taking over roman's O.........and shows the ability to put together effective game plans most of the time. He has gotten out coached a time or two, but that is the nature of the game. I , for one, would not object to giving Lynn a shot.....would hope he would bring in a new D coordinator/new D. I don't want to keep the Ryan intricate D....we need a Schwartz like D that reacts and has simple choices...so the players can play, not have to be part of a swiss watch D. and have to over focus on what to do, rather than just doing it. That, imho, is the problem with the Rex D two years in...some of the personnel as still thinking...not reacting and hitting out there.

J Byrd was a ball hawk.....but, as a cover goy, he wan't much at all. And, he was slow...slower than the lb's the bills had during his time here. Whaley did a good job not overpaying for Byrd. thank god the he didn't take the Bills (still) substantial offer...yes, he got more money.......Whaley really gave the Saints a torpedo below the water line on this one.

Bills ruined Jets playoff hopes last year last home game........so lets do it to the Phins this year.

Marrone did not get on with Whaley either. Whaley believes in his acquisitions, to a fault. EJ the worst example........

Glennon will have lots of opportunity for pretty big money. what makes him want to come to Buffalo with its disfunctional organization? Absolutely nothing other than a salary so big nobody else will pay it. Anyhow, I don't think the writers can see that far down the road...and, I for one, think TT is going to be a great QB yet....look at Cousins...5 th year I think, and finally showing he can be the guy. It takes a long time. TT will get his money...maybe not from the disfunctional Bills, but somewhere who is willing to continue to develope with him.

Bills secondary will play nice.....Landry will not get what he deserves....its a money league.......and nobody will risk fine to speak for what Landry did to AW. See the other thread on this topic.
