None, this is Taylors team...

well said my friend, one injury to a key player, namely the QB, and it happens every season, changes the course of what would be a playoff contender and another team takes its place, so why not us AFL... ...why not us...

Its been an interesting and insightful thread in my humble opinion. I respect everyones opinion and it comes as no surprise to me the minority detractors are the most vocal in any Tyrod Taylor thread. When you say many, based on what?

kind of in the middle of mild and extreme, (voted mild) hard schedule, but going to make for a very exciting season, can't wait...

The Bills had the best O in the league when it comes to running the football Crusher, It didn't happen by accident and it took reps away from the passing game. QB had to understand and manage these plays along with everything thats expected from him in the passing game and it does put allot on a QB's plate in my humble opinion. Probably more then most QB's when you consider Taylor is also a big participant in the run game. I seen improvement towards the end of the season in the passing game. How about you?

I'm not counting anything out just yet JM. How do you define elite? Taylor has the running capabilities of an elite RB already with a cannon arm. The only difference standing between Tyrod Taylor and Cam Newton is 4 inches in height and 4 points on the wonderlic. Lets put T T in a Taylor made system with good McD backing him up and see what happens.

Under the circumstances JM, with zero help from the D, OC sent packing mid way as a scapegoat. Tyrod Taylor has been one of the few positives you can take from another failed regime IMO.

I believe everything you say to be true, but heres the thing. The complexity of the G Roman O because of all the added work in the run game puts to many X's and O's on a QB's plate. 3rd season my friend, its now or never...

Taylor's height disadvantage begs to differ in my humble opinion Crusher. A more innovative approach in Taylors positioning on the field, horizontal passing and more user friendly system should help elevate Tyrod Taylors play IMO.

It may have appeared that way, but it would not surprise me if out of respect for McD that the Panthers organiztion was ok with the Bills/McD conducting the draft using Panther scouting reports. (speculation)

This helps confirm the 1st impressions many of us are getting on McD. I'm not expecting everything to change overnight, but the dawning of a New Era feels close at hand, thanks OP (feel the rhythm with your hands) I'm a Billiever...

I would still like to think its better to give an OC a player he believes fits his system and he can be productive with vs forcing a square peg into a round hole in my humble opinion. Myself personally, to me it appears allot of thought has went into putting Tyrod Taylor in the best position possible to excel and take his play to the next level. time will telll...

nice

Good point, I do believe Taylor shows exceptional field vision and body control when running the football,

Myself personally, Tyrod Taylor and Cam Newton have both chosen to use the run game as part of their arsenal when attacking the opposition. So from an injury standpoint when it comes to league longevity the odds/lines are stacked against them in my humble opinion.

Since I've never given up on T Mobile being that ever elusive franchise guy, Peterman just adds to the intrigue for me. Big fan of the QB position and I'm loving it

I agree, don't rock the boat...

The Bills team, his team means something to Tyrod in my humble opinion. I also think McDermott was able to give Taylor confidence that staying was the right choice for his career going forward.(speculation)

How can you call something lunacy that you admit may turn out to be a wise decision?

Its a way of posturing IMO old school,

Well lets wait and see how it all pans out. If Taylor ends up performing at a higher level under McDermott then it was a wise decision in my humble opinion Foxx.

If only HOF QB's grew on trees, eh John,

I just got one thing to say about this post. Much appreciated buddy

hate it when that happens

pure speculation teef, but its the kind of knee jerk reaction that has plagued OBD over the years and its almost to the point now Brandon is the only constant remaining. haha, its true
