    But he didn't actually play the race card or say anything, so you two are using this thread to fume over a completely unrelated political issue.

     

    May as well yell at some clouds while you're at it.  You're angry, we get it.

     

    Im not angry at all Marv.

    Now if you were driving slow in the left lane and refusing to get over...I’d get angry.

    Not emotional, just thought the crap people bought when the FO said in "not so many word" that they were tanking an .500 team the prior 2 years pissed me to no end.  

     

    I expected a big year from Watkins....  And Boldin would have stuck imo if Watkins wasn't traded and what he saw in training camp.

     

    Tyrod's to me was given a lousy offense and game plan to work with.

    Geez let's go back to the threads when 5-2 as to what a D we had and all we needed was 200 yards passing a game from Tyrod......

     

    I was the one with threads clamoring to throw for 300 like every NFL team can.  This O is a joke......

     

    Front office never said it was tanking.

    Dumb move, just plain dumb.   Yes, Taylor looked bad but the offensive line and defense are atrocious over the last two weeks.

     

    This might make sense if we were 2-7 but this is a 5-4 team and they are starting a 5th round rookie who barely has 50% completions when playing in preseason and garbage time.     Taylor needs to get better, but the line has been disgraceful over the last two games, at least Taylor can run,  Peterman stands no chance behind that turnstile factory. 

     

    Despite the rough last two weeks, Buffalo could potentially beat fellow wild card contender San Diego, be 6-4 and right back in the thick of the hunt with four division games left.   That is not a time to mail it in.  This is going to backfire big time.    

     

    Were not mailing it in.  They made the move because they felt Peterman gives them the best chance to win.

    I see other teams adapt and get better.  NE is the best example.  I can't tell you how many times their defense has come out flat to start a season and yet every year they finish top ten in keeping the other team from scoring.  I want that.  They run or pass completely based on what the other team is doing.  We run the same stupid offense no matter what.  At least last year and the year before we ran the same stupid offense no matter what but it worked most of the time.   I am worried this offense just isn't going to work regardless of QB.  If Taylor and then Peterman isn't working, then we draft some "franchise" QB and throw him to Dennison and that doesn't work we are really creating a huge void and dedicating seasons and resources to a problem that may always be coaching.

     

    It's easy to use NE as an example because they have the greatest QB of all time.  Everything is easier and deficiencies are masked when you have that guy under center.

    No, he's talking about race. Trust me. I'm reasonably familiar with Schatz's work. I'm not saying he's right or wrong, so don't shoot the messenger.

     

    I guess we agree to disagree.

    They both have the same issues throwing from the pocket.  With the production and Jackson puts up, he should be the #1 overall pick but he's not even being considered that.

    No. I'll be blunt: he is saying that a lot of NFL fans are straight-up racists when it comes to the QB position. I'm not going to pass judgment one way or another on his views, but that is what he is saying. It's pretty clear.

     

    I think it has to do with their style of play and race has nothing to do with it.

    Lamar Jackson, just like Taylor, has problems throwing from the pocket.  

    Tasker is on WGR and stated that with disciplined defenses that will keep Taylor in the pocket, you essentially can't do anything on offense.  

    Tyrod's inability to throw with any kind of consistency in the pocket really limited this offense.

    Look I want the top QB overall and you're not going to stop me from getting it. 

     

    I'm willing to give Peterman a chance.  He was my one my favorites coming out this past draft and I would have been okay with drafting in the 2nd or 3rd....I'm a little bias.

    But I'm also not expecting anything other than see him play.  I hope he's very good but not going to hitch my wagons to him just yet.

    I'm excited to see what he can do but also not watching Taylor anymore.  I hated seeing our offense so one dimensional and not even having a adequate passing game.

    Because that was the rationale that wasted three seasons on Taylor. The Bills don't have the luxury of developing a marginal guy and hoping for a miracle, they desperately need a blue chipper to build around. I have nothing against Peterman, he hasn't thrown a professional pass yet, but you cannot keep hoping and praying on backups and 5th rounders while giving each new staff 3 years to turn the Bills into a contender. This franchise just doesn't have the talent, time, or resources to do anything BUT take a flier on a top guy, especially now that it's pretty clear there are going to be major changes in the offseason. 

     

    It's not relying on hope and prayer.  If Peterman plays very well, I say we stick with him.  If he doesn't, you draft a guy high.  If he plays okay, you draft a QB high.

    If the draft were today, I take a QB high.
