Its also fair to consider the possibility that had Taylor finished the season out the Bills may have ranked even higher. Durability plays into everything...

Happy B Day ! Best of wishes and God Bless,

thanks for explanation

LIvely offseason discussions If we can stay civilized

hahaha, I warned as many new posters as I could, Beware of PPP...

Myself personally, I try to read and respond to everyones post like its a clean slate discussion. No hard feelings, just taking each post on its own merit. It works well...

The last poll taken before the shutdown had a large majority of Bills fans in favor of Tyrod Taylor staying in Buffalo and it wasn't even close. Like TBD a small minority of Taylor detractors were so vocal it would be very easy to be mislead when veiwing the board. Everyone has an opinion, some opinions are just louder then others...

If Fitz would accept the backup role he would make a good mentor for T T and C J in my humble opinion. Fitzpatrick might also make good coaching material one day, if the old bearded one put his mind to it...

Like them or hate them Ice the New England Patriots have set the bar so high now when it comes to team accomplishments during the Brady Era nobody will ever catch them in my humble opinion. I hate losing to the Patriots, but its one hell of a football team.

yum yum

I understand where your coming from John, but I think you may have misinterpreted what Chan was trying to convey in that exchange, with all due respect

What hes saying John is the ranking in points scored per game average are team standings so to keep it fair we have to include EJ's game.

good point, 10th it is then, still not to shabby, all things considered.

Bills finished tenth, but Taylor as you just mentioned didn't start every game John

I'll 2nd that,

Teddy Nolan needed to be removed from everyones mind in my humble opinion jeff, (exorcised might be the best way to put it) and I have np with the hire, Rex Ryan is a damn good salesman, and just proved it again with ESPN. Myself personally, I'm willing to give new ownership the time it may take to right the ships. Its a New Era...

Pegula's didn't get to where they are today by making the same mistake twice in my humble opinion 3rd.

Thanks for saying OldTimer, but I'm really not the one that deserves credit for the assessment/ adjustment. There's a new Sheriff in town, goes by the name McDermott...

The problem is part gray matter and part faulty system in my humble opinion AFL, The more user friendly West Coast O and innovative coaching may give Buffalo the desired results IMO. I Billieve...

A Lynn is not an OC and didn't design the G Roman playbook. C Jones 1st NFL drive should have ended on a positive note, instead Lynn put Jones in a no win situation. Just because one team looking for a temporary cheap stop gap hired lynn does not make him a good coach IMO.

Everyone seems to think a highly efficient passing O just magically appears out of thin air with the right QB. It takes practice and game reps, Buffalo averaged the lowest in the league. It takes a proven system/coahing, Buffalo sent the architect of the Bills O packing two weeks into the season, then continued out of the same run heavy playbook. It takes good playmakers at WR, Buffalo has one and he missed part of the season. Does this sound like the kind of conditions any QB can produce well under, because it doesn't to me.

This is a wise comment in my humble opinion coming from an OldTimeAFLGuy. Playmakers want the football because they get paid to make plays.

Any argument using low passing totals as a detractor when operating out of a run heavy O is a mute point IMO. Missing open receivers is another story...

The Bills also ranked last in passing attempts per game. You do realize the low totals are the expected result right?

McDermott comes across to me as an innovative HC willing to make the adjustments he deems appropriate in all 3 phases of the game. Myself personally, I think the Bills may have finally hit pay dirt.
