  1. Come around to Peterman but don't like the second leading passer in the nation who has the size and arm to be an NFL QB? To each his own, but if I had to pick one guy that would be successful it would be Webb over everyone but maybe Trubisky.
  2. Barnridge is a real possibility with the connection to McD.
  3. Lots of guys have the athletic ability and the potential, but you gotta live up to it. Mahomes has done exactly nothing in the NFL, and until he does, the Bills won this trade.
  4. Didn't even know there were still employees at ESPN.
  5. I watched Mahomes miss Heath Evans from 10 yards away. On a TV set... I guess make of that what you will.
  6. I'm just saying that, in the NFL they expect you to look a certain way when you're throwing the football. If they left Watson well enough alone and let him play football, he would have a chance at being at least a mid level starter. But as soon as you start trying to change every little thing about how he drops back and how he releases the football it's over. You can't effectively relearn something you've done your whole life and especially not in the short amount of time that is the window of opportunity in the NFL.
  7. If they pick Ross I quit. Seriously. The problem we already have is Sammy isn't a physical wide receiver. He isn't a guy that's open even when he's not. Mike Williams. OJ Howard. Corey Davis. That should really be the only thing the front office is talking about. Because no matter what the pundits think of the back end of the defense, it's no where near the level of atrociousness of the wideout situation. Watkins is a 1B kind of guy, he isn't versatile. We have to make strides in that 8-15 yard range, right in the middle of the field.
  8. Howard/Williams/Davis at 10. They have to get some production out of this offense through the air and if Tyrod can't do it at least 12 gauge will have some weapons to try to impress the coaches before we start talking about which QB to draft in 2018. And if I'm looking at QBs this year it would be Kaya in the 3rd or Webb from Cal in the 2nd/3rd. You just described Tebow and look how that turned out for him. Part of your arm strength comes from your mechanics. So bad mechanics = project no matter what he has done in college. Unless Tebow was actually discriminated against because of his faith. Guess we'll find out.
  9. Bills lose 3-2 in another epic match up of Lake Erie. Carpenter misses 5 field goals including one in the final seconds for the win.
  10. President GM Director of Player Personel Head Coach Offensive Coordinator Defensive Coordinator Remaining staff under those three QB OL WR K P
  11. I like me some Scooby Wright. He isn't the athlete some of these other guys are but his pre snap reads and instincts are excellent and since I am pretty sure we are using the #1 pick on the D Line, Scooby would be a great pickup in round 2 or 3.
  12. Sealed his fate as in got a contract extension? LOL The knee jerking that goes on, I swear. Also, if we draft a running back again I'm going to throw my TV out the window. This is the very, very, very last thing this team needs.
  13. Jayron Kearse, SS Clemson. 6'4", 210 lbs Kearse is a freak athletically. Physical at the line of scrimmage, excellent ball skills, would make an excellent SS/Linebacker hybrid. Question will be where he goes. I've seen any where from 1st to 3rd round.
  14. Probably from numerous, level headed people who know football. Snarky doesn't equal right.
  15. Polian is out of touch. The game passes you by as you sit in a cushy ESPN job. Why do you think guys like Cowher and Gruden haven't come back? They're well aware that they would face a serious uphill battle. We have two Pro Bowl alternates (which by the way, are the two "old" guys) on our line but they're aging and unathletic? Tells me all I need to know right there.
  16. I think there may be quite a few cross eyed Bills fans.
  17. The guy has 13 starts, doesn't matter how long he backed up Flacco. You don't get a sense for the speed of the game in practice and it certainly doesn't come from watching on the sidelines. 3rd down conversions aren't only on the QB, a lot of it has to do with play calling. I think Roman's play calling in critical situations is atrocious. If you want Tyrod to pass for a first down he's gotta have more than 2 routes to choose from. People criticize his tendency to throw it up down the sideline in those spots but he's throwing to Watkins so my question is, why is your best receiver running a go/fly on 3rd and 8? Seems to be a regular thing. I think Clay was seeing a lot of targets because he is at least running a sensible route in those situations. And don't even get me started on the short passing game. I loved seeing Bridgewater stand up from center and shoot a pass to his outside receiver last night. Watkins made his living off of those kinds of plays in college and Roman hasn't done it once. You can't just point at the guy with 13 starts and put it all on him. The defense regressed significantly this year, they have over a half mile in penalties, the play calling is suspect on 3rd down and in the red zone and I can't remember a team with more injuries (maybe under Jauron?). The whole team has struggled this year and I think Tyrod is the least of worries.
  18. Sucked to see that. Guy is the second coming of Steve Tasker.
  19. He had a pretty **** day, but he's had a pretty nice season overall, for a rookie starter. 12th in PPG, 12th in YPG. 8th in yards per play (we were 28th last year). Individually he's 5th in YPA, 5th in QBR, and completing 63% of his passes. He's leading a much improved unit from last year and while he isn't the world beater you all expect him to be, he certainly has less to do with the overall record than you think. The defense has gone from 4th in points allowed and 4th in YPG to 16th and 20th respectively. We've been penalized 132 times for 1,142 yards... and that isn't even including yesterday. It's no coincedence that teams at the top 5 in that category have losing records. Taylor and this offense with last year's defense would've been a wild card team at the very least.
  20. Once. And I am pretty sure he took it for a touchdown. It was either a screen or a quick slant. Quick slants and screens are non existent in this offense for whatever reason. Woods was great at catching quick slants in college. The scheme just isn't there. It was nice to see Tyrod taking some deeper drops this week though. It was driving me nuts watching him take these shallow 5 step drops. The shorter you are, the deeper a drop you need to take to see the field. And not to harp on Sammy but does anyone else notice he falls down every time he tries to run after the catch? It's like watching a baby giraffe trying to run for the first time.
  21. Depends on your definition of the word definition....
  22. The only mistake the Bills made in the off season was not offering Schwartz the head coaching position. Marrone is a wuss, Rex is a clown. People seem to forget Schwartz brought the Lions to the playoffs while they were on a similar drought. I think he and Greg Roman could've done a better job this year. The penalties piling up against us this year is a testament to the kind of coaching Rex brings to the table, which is hey, let's be buddies, worry about winning some other time.
  23. Man I hate fantasy football. Two weeks in a row I get screwed by some random career game from the opponents QB.
  24. Rick Perry and a Constitutionalist. Only 81% though, and they are all pretty close. Lowest is 51%. I guess that's what happens when you don't let the media mold how think and feel about things.
  25. It isn't baseless. A running QB makes your run game more dynamic. If they really want to run 50 times a game, they will need a guy like Tyrod. Also, I am watching the game again right now and I have to say, big difference between Tyrod and EJ when it comes to ball placement and ability to change velocity. I still can't see them starting anyone but Tyrod at this point.
